    Hmmm, I got 178 (7 squares) on my first try, using the trackball on my husband's computer that I utter loathe. I wonder how I'll do with a mouse...

    My best score was 60 squares after trying for about 5 minutes. My mouse kinda sucks as well. Interesting diversion but I can't see myself playing it for large amounts of time.

    After three tries, my best score was 3369 (55 squares). The slow motion really messes up your timing when it is finished.

    Most squares: 102 squares (8410 points)
    Highest Score: 15423 (31 squares)

    With my highest score I sat at 1 square for about 10-min just gathering power ups. I got so many mini squares that my spinning square disappeared (The smallest the square will go without disappearing is two pixels. After this it starts to blink on and off; than it vanishes on next 'mini square' power up.) After awhile I got so board that I just started collecting squares and I grabbed a red square hiding under a black one. :doh:

    -Edit-

    Playing again, did anyone else notice that the music kept on say 'Go go go go Ranger'?

    23082 score with 162 squares. On my fifth try though but right after the first time I actually read the rules. I was somewhere on 120 when I got invincibility and rocked on. What can I say, being a former game geek pays off. ;)

    Over the 100 is pretty good. After that it becomes a blur to me. Damn colourblind and all.

    Yes he did, because his is a six-digit number while your number only have five. Your result is only about a tenth of his.
