I agree about Stampede, Banana. There are a few strategies to use in this game. I don't think you can rely on memorizing where the black cattle appear because it'll change depending on whether or not there is a clear lane for them. Usually when I push the brown, orange, or yellow cattle forward, I try to capture them on the repel since they are very close.

Yep, great point Jerry! I too try to lasso the cattle after the forward push.

Just a reminder that tonight is the last night to post Keystone Kapers and Stampede scores. Wow, that week went by quickly!

If you look at the time of your post, you made it in plenty of time. We go by the server time, which I believe is set to Central, so you had another 58 minutes. Great scores guys!

Well, well, well. Looks like we have a new leader! Congrats to bsr241 on pulling ahead in the race and to douglie who posted 18 points this week and is now sitting very close to the top. Great to see some exciting competition this month and with the Royal Rumble only a few days away, it truly is still anybody's game. Here are the current standings:

bsr241 - 55
singlebanana - 54
douglie007 - 49
bombatomba - 28
Wempster - 26
Jerry Greenwood - 13

On to Sky Jinx and Enduro!

For scoring on Enduro, are we going by days completed or miles driven?

For scoring, we will be using miles driven. I am keeping track of the days as well, since that is the indicator of the badge for this game. You will have to make it to day 6, in order to earn the badge achievement, since the rule states "must survive 5 days." I interpret that this means make it to the 6th day.

According to the scan of the actual manual that came with the game, you would be correct douglie. I will make this change and award the badge at 5 days.  Grin

Just a reminder. Today is the first day of the Royal Rumble, so you can start submitting scores for all 8 games! Scores MUST be posted no later than 12:00 a.m. server time. No.....I repeat, NO.... scores even a second past this time will be accepted, so plan out your playing/posting accordingly. Thanks and good luck!
