Leaderboard scan (!) of Awakening maps
I was motivated to scan through, who holds WR, and it will be like only for the "awakening" maps. Maybe someone else will be inspired to scan the rest of the maps.

No doubt that Takista has been the strongest player, as measured by number of WR.
Abandon grinder would be interesting for a weekly. The WR was done with 11 towers

I had several errors during my game. I was pretty sure you could beat my score with the right setup. Congrats.

Between computer crashes, a couple of brain farts, and Spring garden preparation, I was beginning to wonder if I would ever find this score. Got lucky this morning. Back to garden prep this afternoon.

By the way Astra, Congrats on Brexit. May Britain become Great again.

you have been edited. Congratulations on your good scores.
I decided myself that I would not take that one WR from Boogawoman - Io believe she worked very hard for it. It was hard for myself to get to 174K. So I might give you help for almost any other map, but please do not take the candy from the little ones. Anyway I guess you found out it was not easy ;-)
As for "low hanging fruit", I do not know what counts in your opinion as low hanging, but I could suggest those 2 maps that are probably not optimized yet

Hello Peter, this is Mr. G. I was able to match your wave 9 score as you can see. I chose not to continue that game or post the screenshot for personal reasons. Now that you've returned, I thought it necessary for you to see.

I find your “please do not take the candy from the little ones” comment confusing. I tried my best to ignore it, but was unable.

In post #1803 and #1805 Boogawoman admits using the turtle trick twice in achieving her score. In post #1804 you tell her that the turtle trick is “not legit.” Later you put her “not legit” score as #1. Now you try to tell me that beating her “not legit” score would be taking candy from the little ones? Good grief, Peter!

I don’t expect a response. Don’t want one. Just making the call. I’m finished here.

pdanoe Apr 3, 2020 @ 10:28pm 
Ok edited that leaderboard.

The only help I can give is what I remember. Frengky had made a very good score, and I managed a takeback using all I could think of.
- I used the OL to take off shields where appliccable. Especially I took many tries to get the OL of wave 24 right, it is possible to take off all shield in one strike. And then it is important to sell off in such a way that the last turtle is not opened until the laser can recharge. I think it means putting a cannon on upper right platform - and then OL the racers.
- I used 3-4 guns, I think 3-4 cannons, one red temp, and no meteors or lasers or infernos or concussions.

Good thing that this map has the play again option.

Good luck if ever.
eunomei Apr 4, 2020 @ 4:43am 
The game help is appreciated, but I’m no longer able to play. Maybe it’ll help someone else. My computer freezes have gotten worse over time. The latest freeze ups have gotten downright scary. I’ve gone from computer freeze ups to a BSOD to a very scary Red Screen of Death. I can’t take it to a computer shop because of this virus mess. We’re currently under a shelter in place here. Not sure if I’d want to go out anyway. I’m stuck as a spectator for the time being. It will likely be a while before I play again.
