So, happy anniversary to R3 from us all.
I’m thrilled to see the score thread is still active and that players are still improving their scores. I follow this thread on a regular basis and even though I haven’t been active as a player for a while I have not put my controller away for good.
I haven’t replayed BOM for the extra 100 points. I can pick up 200+ points in LS and maybe 400+ points in SBTC. I can’t see myself playing SBTC again though.
One level I did improve was DOTK, where I made a new combo in order to reach a new maximum score. As this is an anniversary year it would seem appropriate to release it now. At the time I made the combo there was no activity here, so I didn’t really bother to release it. The maximum score is obviously reached by getting 12 Lums from the four Hoodlums. I didn’t have patience for that when making the video. I settled for 8.

Other than improving the overall score of levels I find it challenging to discover new combos that perhaps may not improve the total score of a level, but reveal new knowledge about the game, a knowledge that perhaps can be used in other parts of the game as well.
As for FC, well this has been a long debate about revealing ideas or not. As I have now released the DOTK video there seem to be only FC left. My arguments for not releasing exactly how to play the various combos are: I have put a lot of time into developing ideas and skills to play some rather elaborate and, dare I say, outrageous combos in FC. One of them took me half a year to complete. R3 is also a competition for the first spot in HoF. And if anyone wants to make a challenge for the first spot, I think that person should at least come up with ideas of his or her own to earn that spot. I have shared all my ideas and findings with the exception of FC. I did reveal where the points could be found though.
FC is not completely exhausted for points. I know where to find 100 - 200 extra points. But as these points are horribly difficult to get and as one has to make other insane combos work at the same time, I didn’t go there the last time I played FC.
I wonder what kind of development we will see in R3 in the next decade. Perhaps someone will break the 860.000 points barrier?
Dark_Shadow: Cool to see the old Top 100. That brings back memories.
(Something tells me it's not the first time someone said that in this thread 
)
So it's a restart... Because the red can isn't available. I like the computer!
Man, you're really... insane... Congratulations, and take these 1000 tings from me. I'm really impressed. Outstanding.
