Let us know how long you lasted.
Of course, some will brag and others will lie.

17.467 seconds. Stupid thing is...the pattern is continously the same, so you can anticipate.

13.031 seconds. That's about on par with how long it take me to...wait a second, did I say that out loud?!

Most tries, I make it to about 4, but I did 11 once. :rolleyes: Thank God I have to leave, or else I'd be here all day.

For me it is a cakewalk up to the 25th second. Then it gets too fast for this time of the night. My best time was 28.672.

Very addictive!

I plan to show this game to someone in my computer class tomorrow, and watch as the madness spreads around the room.

Today, I discovered what pressing Control-Alt-down arrow does, and that created quite a buzz in the class.

I know, I kept thinking about that too... I was like, I am NOT going through that again! I did turn my speakers off this time though, just in case.

What does it do? I just did it and it scrolled the page down, as if I wasn't even holding down the ctrl-alt with it.

^^^ haha yeah, I had to give it a try too.

Re: Can you last 18 seconds? - 01/19/06 02:17 AM

Really?

Well, at school, and on my home computer, it turns the entire screen upside down! I did it by accident, and it scared the crap out of me, but then I figured out that you have to do ctrl-alt-up to change it back. I told my friend, and the people around her saw, so they did it to other people's screens.

OMG how cool! I wonder why it doesn't work on mine.

And DSC and I are apparently the curious, try-anything friends that you can have fun with... just a heads up, in case you wanna see something funny when you say, "...and then I stuck my finger in the electrical socket and it was so cool."

My finger is too big to fit in such a skinny slot, I had to use a butter knife.

Two secrets: my record, over a minute, was when there were a lot of windows open on the computer, and thus the blocks kept stopping, and giving me a chance to move.

The second: for the first fifteen seconds or so as a freebie, move down straight away let all the blocks pass one another and then move the cursor up to the top left. They'll go round a few times before you even get close to them. When one's heading for the top left, move vertically down to the bottom left corner, and hide there for a few more seconds...

The first 15-17 seconds is nothing. In fact the first 12 -13 seconds can be beat very easy as Capo said. But doing that gets rather boring and is little or no challage at all.

Playing the game when your computer is not running up to speed or freezing up, doesn't count for crap. You have to keep the playing field level. in fact some of us play that you must keep the red cube in motion, like a 3 second rule.

So.... still nobody has really gotten over the 30 second mark yet.

This easy to understand and easy to play game is VERY addictive. The best part is that anyone can play. Young or old, everyone likes it.
I am glad to see everyone had some fun with it.

Fathersson, did you manage 30 sec? I marginally crossed 18 sec once, but coult not repeat! How do we know all those who crossed 18 sec are really playing it on a fast computer with no loading. Atleast Capo let the secret out. I think Afi is playing with some cave-age computer Who said slow computers are useless

I have never played this game on an old computer. The game has never slowed down or frozen as some have reported here.
I admit that our computers are newer and are fast. But I don't think computer speed helps in this game. On the fast side anyway.

I can tell you that a wireless mouse doesn't help you at all. Now the bigger thin screen picture may help some.
Most people who we have played against me seem to be more likely to hit the walls and not the blue blocks as you reach the longer times.

To tell the truth, I have broken the 40 second mark, but avg. in the low to mid 30's most of the time. Again, mostly hitting the walls when I miss.
