DaveTRON WroteC TRON,

So did you finally get a video better than the 3.8M version you had earlier?

We're on pins and needles, let us know when you have the official word.
I have not played since the 4 million game.
I wasn't going to post any scores until my score was verified and at least someone believed in me.

If you're wondering why I haven't played again, it is because I hurt my wrist during that game.

Apparently, wrist injuries take a long time to heal.
I hope to be back at full strength in a few weeks.

My video is 7 hours long. I wouldn't think 1 gig would be enough, unless I compress it with divx or something like that.

I have problems shooting fast after playing for a long period of time. I think it is the repetitive motion.

I will switch my trigger finger after a while to give my main trigger finger a rest. It also rests my arm since different muscles are working. I will almost always do the mcp cone with my main trigger finger (middle) since it is the fastest.

Once I am safe on the grid bugs levels I will switch fingers if I am tired, but I will always go back to the main trigger finger since I am more comfortable with it.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pillwhere to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill onlineabortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

I find now I can consistently break 100,000. It's a good feeling.

I scored 775,000 back in Tron's heyday. Now I have my own machine and I've just got to about 350,000. The only problem in my estimation is to be aware that every 4 levels the light cycles change patterns. Good idea to have a notepad and write down your levels after you hit user, and you should never die again!
I'm certain that I could score well over 1 millionorder abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

DaveTRON Wrote:The levels in order are:

RPG
COBOL
BASIC
FORTRAN
SNOBOL
PL1
PASCAL
ALGOL
ASSEMBLY
OS
JCL
USER

They continue to repeat and increase in difficulty as you go through them. So the second round on RPG is harder than the first USER level. Hope that answers your questions Karl.

I found this info over on Guy Gordon's old TRON page, and it confirms my suspicion that somebody (dctron) on this thread isn't being entirely honest about their playing.

To my knowledge, nobody has ever hit a score of 4 million points in a single game. You'd have to play for days at a time, and there is no pausing in TRON. I don't think it is possible, and I will not believe it without video proof of the entire game.

The best player in the world scored as follows:

These are scanned pages from Joystik Magazine's January 1983 issue. This is Richard Ross' strategy. He won the Tron contest (July 6-7 1982) with a total of 3,958,901 points over three games.

I believe Will D has been hitting the levels he's described, because depending on how the machine is set you can reach some of them more easily and they appear in different orders. His score is also consistent with what I see when I play my machine.

I have scored around 800,000. I think I could do better, but I would need to take notes on the higher levels as to when the light cycles change their patterns, and what side the cone is rotating.

As for not being able to "pause" on tron. That is true but also untrue in a sense.

On the recognizer version of the tanks, if you hide in a corner, you can stay there indefinitely as long as you don't kill them all.

On the recognizer version of the tanks, if you hide in a corner, you can stay there indefinitely as long as you don't kill them all.
If your light cycle patterns start the same, then you have about a second to figure out which pattern they are on. If not, then you will have to know which one you are doing.
There are five light cycle / tank patterns which will repeat in sequence. There are six cone / grid bug patterns which also repeat in sequence. This give 30 unique combinations of patterns to be aware of.

When I play, I will always have a starting pattern for each level that will work even if I don't know which sequence it is.

After a while, it will be easy to remember the sequences.
Good luck going for higher scores.abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

As I recall, the champ for the Bally tournament had a combined total of just over 3 million points over three separate games.

4 million seems a bit farfetched to me. I would love to see you prove it though, it would be cool to know someone who could get that far.

I was going through the forums and re-read this thread and I thought I'd comment on what Donald Hayes told me at Funspot X back in May. The current world record was set by David Cruz at 7,148,220 taking nearly 10 hours. Donald's game took around 5-6 hours if I'm not mistaken.

I own the game and I'll not be attempting that. Crazy.

And yeah for most just getting *1* million is a milestone they may never reach.

I think it's great the David actually did it! Awesome feat I will never achieve and I own one too.

Actually, David, do you have any footage of you at the end of your game when you hit it? I'd love to add some of that material to the TRON Archives I keep.

Whay have I never thought of that before! This should totally be archived! I'm an idiot.

There are some pictures here.
http://www.classicarcadegaming.com/contests/Funspot2006/images/mda/index.htm
I will have to search through my videotapes to see if there is any usable footage.

Please give me a few days to look for it.

That 7,148,220 game took over 13 hours.

I fully intend to surpass that score. I have just been having trouble finding the right time to try again.
I have to be fully commited with no possible distractions.

I'll make sure there is some video for that one.

I do have the video of the original 6+ million world record.
That one was done at home and was fully recorded.

It's good to hear from you again Dave.
