Ides of September freebie giveaway competition
« on: September 14, 2011, 05:48:33 PM »
Today is my birthday and I'd like to celebrate by giving a gift (much like other generous members on the forum).
This freebie giveaway is a little different than just a raffle... I would like members to submit their high scores in Parasol Stars (my favorite hu card game) via photograph. If you are able to beat my high score by the end of the month, I will send you the freebie. If not, one consolation prize will be randomly drawn for a member who has submitted his/her (are there any females on this forum?) high score.




My high score (the bonuses don't add up correctly)


The freebie prize

1 title needed for a complete US Turbo Grafx collection: Magical Chase

Parasol Stars High Score = 119,783,770

happy b-day hoobs! I don't have Parasol Star so I can't enter (plus I am not that great at puzzle games :-S) but still I have to say it's very awesome of you to do this contest! :)

For some reason the picture isn't loading up for me.  What game is on offer here?

Whatever it is, it would probably be easier for me to just buy it than get a high score on Parasol Stars (which I don't own and probably wouldn't be good at)

Happy Birthday!

I don't have Parasol Stars either, and I've already got Air Zonk, but that Ave Pad 6 sure looks sweet!  Too bad I won't be joining in the fun this time around...

Hmm... I have the game, maybe I'll give it a shot. Never been THAT good with puzzles though.

Parasol Stars isn't a puzzle game...it is an action/platform game.

The freebie game is a loosey goosey Air Zonk (US version).

Thanks for the birthday wishes! When I clicked on my profile, there was a birthday cake icon next to my age.

Happy Birthday!  Cool giveaways and a great idea on the competition. 

Never owned or played Parasol Stars before but it's probably safe to say that a high score in the hundred millions is pretty darn high.  Good luck to everyone that attempts to beat that score.

My first two attempts gave me "Game Over" screens...  :oops: Third attempt only scored me 4,429,140. With what I'm guessing is a BAD (damn I suck?) rating? But my High score screen looks different from hoobs... Different version perhaps? I'm playing using the U.S. game. But yeah, Hundred+ million points is ALOT!

I am playing the US version. The score screen might look different since I finished the game rather than losing all of my lives. Post a screenshot anyways...if you want credit towards the consolation prize. I'm probably gonna give the freebie prize away to the highest posted score since mine seems unbeatable.

Happy Birthday!


I'll give it a shot, though I'll lose, hard. I enjoy this game, but I'm not that great at it. Thanks for the chance!
If anyone gets any leads on a "fair priced" copy of Coryoon, please lemme know!

Where is fancy bred?
