42

[Gamplayerx]

42 totally random games based on the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie (which I still haven't seen yet).  Some of the games are as simple as answering one question, some require you to click something or move something.  Very amusing.  New games keep coming until you lose.  But you can start again and get all new games.

It's kinda difficult to figure out wtf you're supposed to do on those.

I got 200,000 and something.  And a bunch of times I got 0.

Oh, I looked at it wrong.  It was 20,000.  Now I got up to 91,000 at about level 25.

[Gamplayerx]

You've done better than me, grasshopper.  I played like 10 times.  The furthest I got was level 11.

i like the one where you have to knit.

I played this when it was on fark and never got more than 5 in a row.

I only like games where I am better that everyone else. Time to go kill some flies with chopsticks.

I keep getting one that says undefined. it won't let me do anything in it. DAMNIT!!!

[Gamplayerx]

I haven't had that happen.  I just keep losing all on my own.

I got that a lot too.  I figured it was the man trying to hold me down because I was kicking so much ass.

[nishi]

i think they were having some internal techincal issues that resulted in "undefined"

[nishi]

i think it's their question generator - the games seem to work, but the page that pulls up the questions about he movie is what is fucked up.

so discouraging! how can i win??

[nishi]

if you start getting that message, there's a restart button at the corner of the game screen.

however, restarting it seems to make the game move a bit more quickly between rounds. so far, i haven't gotten past 25. which, considering how easy the individual games are, is pitiful.

also, don't try to play with a trackball mouse unless you want to increase your level of pitiful.

I've been doing it with the touch pad at home.  I'm hoping at work when I have time, the normal mouse will be more helpful.

DAMMIT!!!  I got 39 games, 160,000 points.  I did a screen shot but it just shows black.

The cheese jumping over the mouse.  I hit his butt a bit.

That one got me more than any other.

I wonder if I can play without anyone noticing here...

[Alice]

BASTARDS!


I won all 42, but only had 189,642 points.

me too, but it was only 163 though for me.  ???

[nishi]

you get more points for speed, i think.

[Alice]

GAHHHH!  186 this time.

I don't think I can go any faster!

[Alice]

Damn, I got a few trivia while the timer was still on 5 - then Sandy came over to close the blinds behind me and fucked me all up!
