Penguins! If you can click your mouse twice, you can play. You will be laughing within seconds. Unless you love penguins too much. (Via RLC.)

sonicfrog म्हणाले...: 315.8ft so far.; १२/१२/०५, १:२६ PM
Unknown म्हणाले...: 323.5, baby!

I was quite amuseed when I first swung "early"---the penguin flew high in the air, and I thought "hey, I got a good one!" ... and then it landed.

And the resulting position of the flag adds insult to the penguin's injury :); १२/१२/०५, १:४१ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: My best so far is 317.2. This game is dangerously addictive.; १२/१२/०५, १:५३ PM
Ryan म्हणाले...: Maybe I'm going straight to hell for this (well, this and other things), but the first thing that came to mind when I finally got a good hit was Bill Murray's line from Caddyshack: "He got all of that one!"; १२/१२/०५, २:३२ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: I see your 323.5, but I can't raise you. I call.; १२/१२/०५, २:३३ PM
Unknown म्हणाले...: OK, I propose a new challenge: how short can you go (and actually hit the penguin). I just hit 72 feet and now I want to see if I can go lower.; १२/१२/०५, २:४२ PM
Unknown म्हणाले...: 69.3...; १२/१२/०५, २:४५ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: My shortest: 69.3
I guess mcg is my penguin-hitting rolemodel as I seem to be copying whatever he does.; १२/१२/०५, २:५२ PM
Unknown म्हणाले...: To sound a bit geeky, i'd say it just reflects the programming that we're duplicating distances. There are probably a limited number of possibilities.; १२/१२/०५, २:५५ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: That would be interesting to map. If some sufficiently geeky person could write a little automated app. . .

Then again, that would probably border on being geekily obsessive.; १२/१२/०५, ३:१४ PM
Joan म्हणाले...: I like how when you only tap the penguin and he slides on his tummy, he turns around to look back at the bear. I was also amused/appalled to see the blood seeping out from where the penguin's head used to be when he lands head-first.

Longest: 308.2
Shortest: 68.3; १२/१२/०५, ३:२५ PM
Bruce Hayden म्हणाले...: I think that I need more resolution with my screen. I really missed all the blood.

Obviously, I am less coordinated than everyone else here. Most of mine are zeros, and then there is a jump to about 150 with a bunch at around 200, and a max of about 250. Not very good.

And yes, it is addictive. Will go back tonight when I have more time.; १२/१२/०५, ३:३९ PM
Ruth Anne Adams म्हणाले...: I was just relieved I didn't get the big red "ACCESS DENIED" message from 'the man'.; १२/१२/०५, ३:४५ PM
Chris Althouse Cohen म्हणाले...: mcg and Buddy: I can get 0. Oooo, bet you can't beat that.; १२/१२/०५, ४:३६ PM
Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...: Marghlar, awesome. Thanks for the link.; १२/१२/०५, ११:४३ PM
