No you don't get to spear Britney in this one.

I've been playing it two ways

1) as intended, longest distance

2) shortest distance (greater than the 0.02 min)

My longest so far is 533.59, shortest is .0809999

Bah, my high is 534.965, which would have made the top list if it was after they reset the daily scores, not before

High 323 ft. I can't make him get anything more then 323 feet if I let him run all the way up to the foul line. Every time, almost exactly the same distance! What am I doing wrong?


Picture perfect penmanship here.

0.02 doesn't count, because that's what you get if it's BEFORE the stones. tipsy

Start altering the angle a few centimetres before the stones. Try to get an angle of 45 degrees right before the stones, it'll fly. laugh

EDIT: First throw of the morning: 512.883

If it means being on the computer all morning to try to get on that high scores list, so be it laugh

You set the angle with a second click... just before you throw. For example.. if you click before that last palm tree... it keeps going up, making the spear go higher, until you release the mouse button.

Keep hold of the left mouse button before you get to the stones, not too early though because otherwise you just get the height with no speed.. smile

brett, if you got 637,238:

1. how come the spear landed closer than my 527?
2. how come you aren't in the #1 alltime record?
(btw, you know it doesn't make any sense you got 100ft farther than all other players, which are a few thousand)

laugh

Edit: 534.707!! only .200 less than the minimum in "today's highs"!!!

Oblivion Knight... that's a good score but won't make the chart. I can't get above my high either. frown

PS. If anyone figures out the secret... share it so ubbdev's members can fill the chart! wink

OK, I've got this thing figured out now.

IMO, it doesn't measure the distance you throw the spear (as LK observed earlier), but the time it's in the air. Divide the number it gives you by 100, and that's the number of seconds it was in the air for. So say, an angle of 60 degrees is crucial.

I think. wink

I dunno how you guys get them so short like that.

I did get 538.something once, but it was on a foul, so it didn't count. frown
