yes im talking about mspac.
while there arent any complete patterns like pacman, you learn when
the ghosts break up, which direction theyre headed to their respective
corners and when the fruits comes out. since the ghosts stop turning
blue at higher levels you need to maximize the fruit bonuses.
btw, i have developed beginning patterns for the higher mazes. however
they dont last too long into the maze, but i know ive got a head start
each time and then good game play takes over. >> Stay informed about: OK Ms. Pac-Man Owners... |

Yeah even playing one game a year I think I could do 150K. At first I
thought ol' Clams was kidding.
I keep reading your name as Clams CaSino. I think you should change
it...who wouldn't like someone who goes by Clams Casino. :}

Wait a sec? Are you talking Pac-Man or Ms. Pac-Man?
I could approach (but never quite broke) 200K on plain vanilla Pac-Man via
patterns. But Ms. has an element of random movement, making perfect pattern
play impossible.
I can't imagine 150K on Ms, back in the day it was rare that I made it to
the last maze change (random fruit #3 board?)

150k on Ms. Pac-Man is pretty common (I can do it myself). Back
in the day I normally scored 150-225k, but I played the game
and understood the ghost behavior.
If playing with the speed-up, it's extremely easy, but that is
not how I play.

Ya ya... I'm getting the idea....
I don't ever remember seeing scores like that put up on any Ms Pacs I'd see
out on location "back in the day". We had one in my local bar back then,
and I was the king with a consistant ability to put up scores near 50k.
Some of the scores posted here are amazing (to me) for Ms.

OK, after some more work my best is 70k.
In order to put up really big scores, is ghost gathering in the early boards
important?? Any tricks for keeping the orange ghost in controll, or any
other good ghost management hints?
