Same here honestly. I'd feel better about my chances if it was Baseball, Golf or Ice Hockey. I can't say I'm overly confident in my Soccer skills.

It's a better option than Tennis is, that's for sure. And I hate Baseball No idea. Ice Hockey is a good one too. I can crush some hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other game looks good, but a lot to learn in a busy week. Both of these are hard, but def playable. Edit: and Ive never played either for more than 1-2 min. @Krunch, care to weigh in with a preference? Same here, never played either at any length really. I think i booted up Soccer once and it wasnt completely terrible Edited November 28, 2021 by Krunch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesRobot | 5,837 Events Team · Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 (edited) Finally hit a better score but I can't get my head around Pooyan. I can't hit any of the bonus stuff except the 12 shot at the beginning. It just won't click with me.

I guess I spoke it into existence because we're playing Tennis, Soccer and Golf at the same time. If @Jeevan doesn't come up with a new score, I'm going to get eliminated in the next round by my own idea.

I'm guessing that you can get a score in that range? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll meet you half way: I'll play out the game I have paused, and whatever I score is whatever I score. If you can score into the millions on Pooyan, you'll be in Round 2... I'm just being honest that I don't think I have a realistic shot at winning, but it doesn't mean I won't try as I have been all week. If I was in the other bracket of Pooyan, it would be a different story, which is why I said you can enjoy your football. This is a fun game, but I am having a hard time being consistent. Considering some unfortunate personal developments as of this morning, I was unable to wake up early and put some hours in as I planned to, but don't worry, I am trying to at least put a respectable score in. At least I can say I have put in honest effort and found a new game to the game bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go and post my final score on the first page right now, then it's time for football for the rest of the day. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I beat it for my personal list, my only requirement was to be under par, so I was like -2 or something, and never practiced beyond that. My problem is: that was a loooooong time ago, so I'm essentially going into to this week as if I'd never played the game before. Time to knock off some rust...

I should have a chance then since I'll be lucky to get any points at Soccer and I imagine we will tie at Tennis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, at this point I don't even think there's a favourite: one of us will have a miracle round of Golf at some point after many, many attempts, and that will be the difference...
