For one thing, the highest scores require getting three optimal wands. Even getting two good wands is rare. Three good wands almost never happens. And then everything else has to go perfectly as well, while you're under pressure because of being on such great pace. You can't make any mistakes because losing any time or dying hurts your score. The WR holder also has advanced speedrun strats that I can't do. I think maybe I could hit 182k. Edited April 12, 2021 by mbd39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krunch | 303 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Marble madness is weird cause as you practice you might just hover around 100K for a bit usually even lower and then all of a sudden bam you’re scoring 165K and up.

Krunch | 303 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 If anybody gets an elusive 3-wand run let us all know, it’ll be interesting to see how much it actually comes up in practice. Only 0-2’s so far for me but I was lucky enough to capture a segmented 3 on emulator with some save states in between the wands for the Overlord to decipher, now that’sssssss some mysterious coding 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbd39 | 2,020 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 I rarely get 3 wands and 3 good wands almost never happens (which makes nervous choking almost inevitable when it does). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
