Finally got a good score on Stunt Pilot!

I can't believe that I finally did it. I went from like #659 ranking in Stunt Pilot to the highest score. After each game, it didn't seem like it was taking my high score.

I have a question, though. My ranking in Stunt Pilot shows that I am #1, and the leaderboard shows me at #39. I suppose that is because I was the 39th person to get the high score. Anyone understand how they order everyone with the same score?

The score you got was the highest possible score for the game, so it says you are rank 1. But other people got that score and they can't write rank 1 for everyone on the leaderboard.

I got that, but within all the ppl that got that high score, how are they ordering everyone? I would have understood if I was listed first or last. I saw that I was just above you. Did you just recently get the high score?

Perhaps they use a randomizer to determine the order? Just curious what it takes to get at the very top. Could it be number of times to get the highest score?

I've tried figuring out that very thing, and I got nothing. It's not the order that people arrived at the high score, it's not the most recent goes to the top, and it's not alphabetical. It's mostly just something I've figured will always appear random; though I don't know why.

Could it be the amount of time that it took, although that should figure into the scoring.

I got the high score one of the first days of this episode so its probably just random.

What's your score in the new Snake Charmer game?

Anybody got some tips/tricks for the medium and high levels? the notes are so fast that my fingers (and brain) get muddled.

Cool! Any tips from your side? I could surely do with that score. You have 10,000 points more than me! I'm still stuck on 17,600.

3 tips
1: listen to the music, if it goes up, the note is on the right, if down, the note is on the left
2: train ur fingers to be alert, its easier for u if u know how to play the piano
3: does india have o2jam? if yes practice with that
