    Given my frustration at my inability to best my furthest distance (I can't seem to get above 319.9 anymore) I decided to try to see how little I could hit the penguin (missing entirely doesn't count :p ). My record so far is 67.8.

    I love those head-firsts...

    Got it up to 320.

    Not a bad idea, trying for the lowball score...I don't see how you got 67. I can't get under a hundred.

    Holy crap, I got 322.9! (After about 2-3 minutes).

    I think I'll stop now. :D

    Edit: just saw that JSBB got the same. Maybe I'll have to keep going. :p

    If you swing really late and spike the penguin into the ground you can get the low scores - I can fairly consistently get scores in the 70s and low 80s.

    I can't seem to get in the 60s again so I went back to hitting for high scores. I managed to beat the 320 mark again at 321.1 but I still have not managed to beat my high score.

    P.S. The 56.3 on a first swing miss is a bug.

    I managed a 65.5 for minimum distance and going for the longest distance face plant I pulled off a 207.5. I guess that only leaves the minimum distance face plant to try.
