FUCK YES! 108 sec. Finally over 100. The curse is broken, and all that was needed was a couple of beers.
edit: aw man, too much. I need to play Animal Crossing for at least an hour just to sooth my head now.

Yeah, astounding that 7 people did it... And it wasn't like they were last place either, just between 40 and 62...
Props to the bottom score guys sticking with it!
Cool!
Still 2:30 to go
Deleted the game off my iPad and removed GC entries by accident. But it seems my iPhone scores are still present fortunately, but not my 91 sec score. Buh had hoped for top 20. Oh wellYeah, astounding that 7 people did it... And it wasn't like they were last place either, just between 40 and 62...

Not sure what's up with gamecenter but it's showing my all time high score (170.04) as earned today. I actually topped out at 145.37.

Ahah don't feel bad, you were 20 seconds from the top10 anyway
if you notice, Wario's score wasn't showing up for whatever reason

) waiting for beloved WARIO64 to fire up the game once so that he does appear on the leaderboards and we won't need to mess with switching places and a lot of boring work reallyIn the meantime, I'm accepting suggestions for which game to pick for the next challenge.

I'm struggling to think of new score based games suited for a fair challenge... Everything that comes to mind with the right requisites is 1+ years old
Thanks for the competition. Never played Super Hexagon so much.
Don't know how fair something like Super Crate Box is due to weapon unlocks...

Robot Unicorn Attack 2, single run?
Oh yeah Super Crate Box as well, the unlocks are pretty quick to get.

SCB can't work unfortunately, we've already discussed it a while ago: as per the challenge's rules games MUST not have boosting unlocks of any kind. Plus SCB matches can drag for too long when setting highscores. I don't remember the other reasons cause although I own it I'm not familiar with the game but there were a bunch of problems mentioned by gaffers in the last couple of chats pre-challenges (the unlocks/time req were more than enough anyway).
Thanks anyway guys! Keep 'em coming, I'll look into the others you've mentioned of course
Someone also suggested Impossible Road (together with a bunch of others lime Hypership out of Control) via our own Twitter, that seemed pretty cool.

Impossible Road sounds like it can be frustrating like Super Hexagon..but addicting. But a competition would push me over the edge to get it...
Gauge is pretty fun..but really taxing for me. Starting takes longer than I like..but the game is intense. Anyways..all I can think for now..

I'd definitely be up for that. Bought it ages ago, but haven't really played it much.

oh you might be right. Well, normal mode then and one of the earlier levels so it doesn't take that long to unlock it. like DownTown or DangerZone

There was a problem with the top10, you guys aren't aware but it takes A LOT of time to screen all the scores to see if they're legit or not. Turns out something didn't add up.
Waiting for the updated top10 from my good friend Tunesmith and I'll post everything at once

Many thanks to iOS GAF's hero Tunesmith for the top banners, header, the magnificent TOP 20 leaderboard and all the help in running the competition!
Ok, the lack of comments must be killing dash, so I'll be first to comment and say THANK YOU for putting this whole thing together! And also for getting me back into this game!
And thank you Tunesmith for all the hardwork in setting this up behind the scenes and designing the banners.
And finally congrats to the winners! Looking forward to the next challenge

I'd like to thank Dash for setting up an, as always, entertaining challenge as well. Takes quite a bit of work to organize and make sure stuff falls into place properly. Also thanks to people for participating and to the prize donors, couldn't make it happen without you.

It's been my pleasure, Tunesmith is the best wing man there is and you prize donors are so supportive that I don't think I'm worthy of that. I just hope I'll be able to get in contact with a few devs/gaffers to support the next challenge better since I couldn't do it for this one; coming right after Skybound's amazing support for the Tiny Wing's challenge well, it was a tad disappointing I couldn't put up more stuff for the prize pot.
Damn, only 1 day to grab a spot in the top10, pretty freakin' good
Thanks for setting this up Dash, I had a blast! Thanks as well to the prize donors, I'll make sure to put that iTunes gift card to good use.
Ahah, I'm glad you had fun
well deserved win, I think you're like #3 in the whole world, amazing.You could push yourself more till the world record and contact Twin Galaxies, make us proud! lol

Seriously, the prize donors are amazing. I'm proposing a fuckin' Champion of The People tag for Pray For Death now that Haunted has the pineapples tag
Dude has put up $20 for the challenges in a matter of a couple of months, THANK YOU!
As for you, my man, I just want to say:
DAMN YOU
