Pessimeister Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Pessimeister: 63, 570 For Australian gamers, it's almost a year since BotA 2021 when we last played this. During this time up in Sydney I got to meet @OOO and we played a few games of doubles on Ms Pacman. Good times! I had to smile when I saw he'd nominated this. I wonder who holds the 1989 Bar's Ms Pacman high score now and if the original cabinet is back in action? I certainly hope so. Wonderfully, the game is set to return for BotA in September 2022. So this is good practice. Bartronica now has a working Ms Pacman from Geelong's sister bar (Ms Bartronica) which is temporarily closed whilst a new venue is located. It's currently set to 5+1 at 15k. If any MGL'ers want to meet up at Bartronica and play a few games on a friday night, let me know! Cheers! 🍻 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pessimeister Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) Pessimeister: 82, 060 Not much further but a couple of bananas made all the difference. I really want a PB on this game. 🙂 I'm anticipating some big scores from CrazyKongFan, DBH, Creech and OOO. Edited May 3 by Pessimeister 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pessimeister Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Pessimeister: 89, 060 Another small improvement - 100 k and the Junior Boards remains the goal for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMacauley Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 78,440 Was it luck, finally opening the bottle of Gin I won a few weeks ago playing pinball or a combination of both? Who knows but it's an improvement on a Pac game and I'll take it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always seem to make too many mistakes on the third-fourth chase boards. No matter how many times I watch Rick Forthergill masterfully manipulating the ghosts using the hold positions and grouping, I don't seem to grasp the techniques and end up reverting to a random mash-up of ideas. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyKongFan Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I always enjoyed watching Aart/PacWhiz play Ms Pac. He groups them so effortlessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried watching people group the ghosts on both this and regular Pacman and unlike Burgertime how to do it just doesn't sink in. Maybe one day it will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
