I feel better knowing that I'm not the only one who's bad at this game. :) I managed to get a high score of 90 today, but mostly I was averaging about 60-70 points a game.

The highest I got was a score of 40.I think this game was more difficult than a certain Neopets game which was similar,only you were serving Coca Cola.

You must be so glad that you started this topic so you can see that you're not alone, huh? I cannot score even ONE point on any game that uses the arrow keys. I always thought that it was about my age (I'm 59 so I grew up in the simple world before the micro chip, before calculators and being able to watch recorded TV and movies...we thought the VCR was amazing, and now look how far we've come beyond THAT technology. There were NO microwave ovens when I was young. I would starve now, without that, lol)

So, yeah, I didn't grow up with video games so I've never used a game console that has the four directions, such as the arrow keys. When pong was the first video game (my dad bought it for my little brother when I was about 18??) everyone thought it was magic and the eye hand coordination to simply bat that ball back and forth seemed so hard, and that was like using a mouse, I think, which I have now pretty much mastered, lol.

I thought that only ppl who were older and didn't grow up with video games sucked at games such as Street Team, but then I have NO clue how old any of you are. I just think it's amazing that I'm not the only one, lol, who cannot score even ONE point!! My poor band did not even place!! It was the Rotting Stones and two of my zombie friends were in it.

I can assure you that it has NOTHING to do with intelligence, so hang in there. If you're smart you're smart and you KNOW that you are!! :) I know for a fact that my IQ is above average but I cannot play the arrow games. If I wanted to spend a LOT of time learning and practicing I might be able to "get" the hang of it but I'm "too old" to be patient with that. I'd rather chill and play Caliph's tomb. Just sorry I couldn't help my band!!!

And as for the index finger, I know this has nothing to do with playing a game with arrow keys, but my index finger is sort of 'shot" so I have my mouse functions reversed and I "left" click on the right (which took a couple weeks to get used to) and I use my middle finger. I simply could not use that index finger for hitting that left click on the mouse anymore, well that's arthritis for you!! :)

I got better after a while (159 ahaha) but that still wasn't great. Probably had something to do with the fact I don't get anywhere near enough sleep, and then my reflexes not moving as fast (not that they were good anyways ahaha.) But still the highest score was like 17,000???????????????????? HOW??????????????????????????????????

Glad to hear you got better, that's way better than a score of ZERO!!

Seriously? Someone got 17,000 on that!! That's crazy. Well I once watched a 7 yr old playing a game on neos (I think it was Igloo garage sale) and his fingers were flying on those arrows. He was using his right hand on all four arrows and left hand on the space bar and it was amazing to me!! I think he started playing those types of games when he was as young as 2, and he's 17 now.

Not enough sleep, I never sleep, lol. Well I DO sleep but not much, I'm just old. It's sort of normal for women in their 50's to develop insomnia, but I've had it all my life so I "get" that!!

By the way, did anyone get you that Piece of a Confused sky that you asked for on the wishing forum? Let me know cause I bought one for you but I got distracted, and I have to EAT and also I have to PEE, lol. I've been sitting for HOURS w/out getting up. But I'll be back so let me know. Please don't (anyone) slap me for being off topic here, I'm just dancing as fast as I can between forums and trying to be generous.

I know! I can't even imagine how long that would take, and actually I'd probably get bored and lose on purpose. |D Can you even imagine though? Some skill and dedication really went into that.

I like sleep but at the same time it's a waste of time. I'd rather do "important" things. (Like Subeta. |D)

Ah, no, as far as I know, nobody has picked that up yet. (And I do that often. XD I sit until I literally have to get up.) It's my topic anyways. xD

So if it's your topic then nobody can slap me, that's good!

I HATE sleep, as it's a total waste of time, I agree, and I've always felt that way.

Well I will send you that piece of sky and then I REALLY have to eat. At least I got up and peed, lol!! It's dangerous for a woman my age to sit that long w/out going to take care of that. Even those of us who have had NO babies (cry!!) have issues with our bladders sometimes...lol!! Hope that wasn't TMI!!

OK will send item and then find food, after that I have to go rest. I NEED a laptop so I'm not sitting at a desk, and I just don't know what to buy. My answer guy is no longer on the earth plane (cry) but anyway, I'm watching LOST on Netflix, streaming it to my TV, I never watched that show before. Wow, I love it!!!

EDIT: OK how do I get rid of this, it posted twice!!!
