Thanks for the support.
When somebody says that want to break the high score on a game or even if they say they are going to, it doesn't mean that they will succeed. Even I know that.
When you submit a score to Twin Galaxies for verification, it is up to them how long they take before posting the score. Why is DaveTRON saying it took months for me to prove that score when it was out of my control. Also, I offered him a copy of the DVD which he declined.
It's these kinds of points that can get so twisted around that I take offense to.
As far as looking up scores, www.twingalaxies.com has scores for just about every game and every platform.
When I posted my 4 million score here, it was not better than anything done. Twin Galaxies has higher scores posted.
My intent was never to say I was the best. Only that I am right up there.
Yes, DaveTRON, your words can be very harsh. And, unless I missed it, nobody ever made a comment about the score in Twin Galaxies after it was officially posted.
I guess this all has to do with DaveTRON calling me a liar and me having to defend my integrity.
Once my new score is posted, this can be put to rest. You will have no more excuses to use to call me a liar.
I know that there are a lot of good people here and I never wanted this score business to get out of hand.
The fact is though, that I have a new score being verified by Twin Galaxies and it doesn't start with a 4.
I will try to fit in.
It will be easier knowing that everyone doesn't feel the same way that DaveTRON does.
But, since he is looked upon so highly here, it is harder to feel you belong when his opinion counts for so much.order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pill

You state your opinion as fast. If it's a fact I'm more then happy to give you your 30 seconds to provide proof. If not I say withdraw the statement or appear to be a hypocrite. People do better then the best everyday... it's called progress.

Oh my gawd. What a weenie thing to say. Big mean DaveTRON is keeping me down. Where's my tiny violin? I will be harsh with you as long as you keep trying to make me a villain. I will not apologize for my views.
Look, you made a wild claim I didn't believe. Through a series of public messages, private PMs and email (which I still have!) YOU made me think YOU were a liar.
You were lazer focused on getting me to publicly support you. I told you I would with proof which you never posted until the Twin Galazies score.
I refused your offer of the DVD because I was creeped out by your messages to me and I wasn't about to give you my home address.
See, the point is, I am not calling you a liar now at all. You keep saying that. I have said that I think when someone makes a claim they cannot prove immediately and then WAFFLES on that claim that I think they are possibly lying.
You've proven you weren't. My opinion is that you should have said 'I am working on getting my high score certified' rather than 'I've done it'. That's just me. I'd tell people I was trying and give them updates on my progress. you went right for I can do it and THEN you came back and said 'Oh wait, I gotta work on it first'. I find that suspicious.
I am not a villain, I questioned your claims. I've said a dozen different ways now that I no longer consider your claims false. I believe you, and I support your efforts to break the record, but you seem to want to stay and play in the muck. Again I ask why?
You made yourself look like you were lying. I didn't do that. I just made the mistake of not taking the namby-pamby approach and actually saying something about it.
Gosh, I am so sorry for that. Oh, by the way. You still keep calling it your 4 million score. It's August 4th and your highest certified score so far is 3,785,828 for 5th place on the list. You STILL haven't proven your original boast, or does anyone else not see that? you are close, and as I have said, that's cool, but can we get a clear update on when we will see that top score you keep saying is in the works?
How about we discuss that instead of trying to make me the bad guy?

I just scored 4,384,019. I recorded the whole game.
A grid bug got into my computer at about 3.8 million and messed up the recording at that point. I recovered about 100k points later when I could take a break in the recogizer level. Up to 3.8 million is intack in the video, and the rest is continued on another video.
I'm going to have to try all over again to break the world record after I figure out what went wrong with the computer. |
The high score is 4,580,031 points set by Donald Hayes who is a friend of this site. Well, has dctron done what he said? Do you know for a fact he has? Do we have anything other than his word?
I think if you had all the emails and PMs in front of you you might see a different side. Unfortunately, you only see the public posts. I felt he was being less than truthful and I said something.
He's proven he's on the level for the most part, but his original claim is still UNPROVEN! 8 months later! He does not hold the high score.
I don't have a problem with him, haven't for a while. Yet he brings it back up via this forum because he thinks he sees me in a weak position over Kamui and suddenly I have people telling me what a bastard I am for not believing poor little dctron months ago when he waffled over his claim of setting the high score! HE STILL HASN"T, but I'm not saying he can't at all. I want him to, I fully support him, but he wants people to believe I am keeping him down. How?!?!?!
I can accept that I am harsh sometimes. Fine. Maybe I am a little sorry for it, but I am not going to let you people flog me for speaking my mind. Tain't happening McGee. Compared to all of the other things I say and do for people on this site, I think my track record leans heavily the other way.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion DaveTRON

Ah well, now that we all know the truth, I wish her luck with recovery.
Edit-- Besides, if she wants to come back, it's okay. But running away really doesn't solve things. It's the best to come back and patch things up. Then life goes on. |
I agree with what you said about politics. But sometimes, you can talk politics with the right people, and learn a lot.
I feel very sory for Kamui....I hope she is able to come back at some point. ==

Trure, if both parties are open for debate. If it's a matter of one person trying to change another person's mind, that's usually when things get heated.

Hello
Is impossible let to see what happens here
And the response of the people is incredible for Kamui's absence
Ok, I have never spoken with she and I never have had friendly relation with she.
But many people of this place YES
Many people have demonstrated affection and worry for Kamui's absence and wants that she returns.
It is a beautiful sample of affection and fondness of the Kamui´s friends
but...
She has not answered
I am sure that all will read this and this is a message that i want send for 2 parts (Kamui and TRON-sector)
Kamui
I have never spoken with you, but If you come back this one would be a very good opportunity to do it
You have MANY FRIENDS who want to see her of I return here.
If you felt badly for some reason, forget it, there are things that matter more, the friendship with your friends of TRON-Sector is more important that an bad moment.
DaveTRON, Carl, Todd, Prankster bit, Boingo_Buzzard, KiaPurity, Traahn, DJ Aussie E., Tori, Sketch, FreedomForever and more.... come on, they wait for you.
And now already also I wait for you to be able to be also his your friend
Ok, TRON-Sector
Only I want to recommend something ...
To wait
Tron-sector´s Community already has demonstrated the affection that is had for Kamui...
We all want that she returns
And alone as last commentary
Once, an uncle said to me:
"Hey boy, If a friend that you love went away by little troubles...
is ok, let you go.
After...
If he returns to greet him, it demonstrates that always he was your friend...
But, If he don´t come back to greet him...
It demonstrates that he never was your friend"

that's nice. i'll remember that.
the thing with kamui is that she has somehow been betrayed by friends, which is one of the most horrible things that can happen to a relationship [i know, it's happened to me as well] but whatever these friends did has made her sad, depressed and scared, and she just doesn't feel like talking directly to anybody at the moment, and probably for quite a while. [makes me think i was lucky to get a reply to my email. how ironic that i'm on the other side of the world.]
so there won't be any more kamui for quite a while. possibly a few months, there's also a chance that we may never see her again.
so everybody please just stop all your posts about game scores, or something like that, or a certain someone saying a certain something without anything to back it up
we should be supporting her with all our collective heart, and hope that she makes a decision on whether to return early, if at all.just save discussions about politics for another thread.
kamui, if you decide to drop by, and read this, i'm trying. i'm with you, Gal. whether everyone else is is another matter. words of wisdom from...

Hey Kamui.
Wow - what a thread, huh?
I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulties with things in your life right now. For what it's worth, we've all been there in some way.
I don't know why you feel as if you have to "keep running". Where are you running to? What are you running from? Have you ever met a happy, successful person who ran from their troubles?
What I mean is you made a comment weeks ago, and in very poor choice. Ok, I understand it was your opinion and we all share our opinions here. Let's be honest though - do honestly believe your anti-American laced media comments were well thought out? Do you honestly believe they were accurate? Did you not see how ugly it got with some other anti-American comments just days before yours?
I've said before - we all learn things the hard way sometimes. In my years on planet earth, I've learned MOST of what I know the hard way. I've said stupid things, put my foot in my mouth, offended people, lost friends, lost jobs, lost girlfriends, lost my bearings, and even almost lost my life. I've spent a lot of time being an idiot. But I am proud to say I did learn from my experiences. I just wish I wasn't such a slow learner!
We all make bad moves and stupid choices. That is part of learning.
You offended a lot of people with your very poor choice of comments. That cannot be undone, and you should not blame people for how they took your comments.
What you really need to understand is that the people here are your friends. No one hates you for your comments, though obviously not very happy with you for making them. I bet people would appreciate some kind of apology - but ONLY if you really feel that you should offer one. If you still truly believe what you said in those comments, then so be it. You're allowed that. I personally have a hard time thinking that you truly believe what you said though. I doubt you're anti-American and I doubt you really know much about the American media. Trust me - I live here and believe it or not, the media in this country can be quite anti-American itself! However that depends on the media source, what agenda they have, your own perceptions of the story presented, how your mind interprets the data offered (and fills in any blanks), and so many other factors.
Anyway, I don't believe you'd stick by your comments, given a choice. I think you spoke out of ignorance and without much thought or knowledge of the subject. And again, we've all done that before. If I had a dime for every time I did that, I would have been VERY RICH before I even hit the age of 20! But I did learn and so will you.
I stand by what I said in that thread when I made it clear TRON-Sector is NOT the place for political discussion or disrespectful comments. Yes, politics and negative comments are also part of people's opinions. But TRON-Sector is NOT the place for that kind of discussion. I won't hesitate to shut down any thread that heads in that direction.
TRON-Sector is a place for everyone who loves TRON to discuss anything and everything TRON related. It is also a place for all of us who have so much in common to share positive thoughts, art, creativity, collecting, other similar interests, and even help each other out when we're having some trouble.
Forgive me if I sound like I am preaching. I really don't mean to.
I am reaching out to you.
Come home, girl.
We care about you.
If you're not ready to come home, that's ok. We all need time to sort things out, etc.
But when you're ready to join us here again, you will be welcomed back.
And with that, I close this thread.
End of line.
