If I was a betting man, I would have made sure i passed that 19K clusterfuck on the leaderboard and scored a cheeky 20k. Perhaps you got a good run and pushed 22, 23K.
And then sit on that, knowing it's a competitive score and the ball is now on the other side of the court.
FIRST POST OF PAGE: Every player must submit their score along with some evidence that it is legit. There are many ways of doing this. The easiest is a simple screenshot of your score. The fanciest would be to upload a video of yourself playing the game with your forum name on a piece of paper in the shot, and to load up time.gov in your browser in the video to prove the time and date. One really good way to prove your score is to play the iOS version (again, not required) and to friend me (Apreche) on Game Center. Then I will be able to see your verified high score. Another decent option is to play on Kongregate and record your high score on their charts under your forum name. Provide the best evidence you can. More is always better. I don't think anyone will cheat, there would be no honor in that.
Submit your evidence via e-mail to grandprix@frontrowcrew.com on or before March 8th New York time. Once it becomes March 9th, any further submissions for round 1 will be deleted. You may submit multiple times. Only your final submission will be considered. All others will be deleted. Source Link
So the whole time I've been playing on my iPad 2, the game has been stuttering, I'd say twice every thousand meters. Tonight I turned on airplane mode. No stutter. Broke my high score. Not gonna tell by how much, and I don't think it will go to Game Center, so I got a screenshot and a photo of me holding the iPad.
Nevermind, just broke 5K. Also, why doesn't the iPhone version play the music, but the iPad does?
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Damn Ro, don't you realize that that is actually an advantage? I purposefully do that so I can hear the sound effects from the sattelite warnings better.
It does mute the music, but also the sounds. Those sounds do help with play. On the phone version there's an option to mute one, but not the other (I believe).
So I originally started playing this game on my iPhone and decided the screen was too small and doing it on the iPad was the better method. Yesterday I decided to try playing on the iPhone again. It's a lot easier. The draw distance horizontally is a lot longer so it's easier to see things coming and makes the game seem like it's not going as fast as it does on the iPad. The only issue is thumbs getting in the way but you can kinda mitigate it by just putting your thumb in the bottom left, sometimes it covers the guy but generally you don't need to see him directly. I started getting consistent 10k runs once I switched over and almost doubled my previous high score.

I didn't know. I don't mute it because the music is fucking awesome, and the audio cues are fucking loud anyway. Then again, the music also sometimes just stops playing.
The cues aren't that loud, but they're not really that necessary. Ninety five percent of the time the mine is trivial to clear and I think even if you know that the falling building (or whatever is) is coming it's hard to figure out where to jump to land on it.

I just tried this and now the windows that were giving me trouble are a breeze. Thanks!

Also, I haven't been trying because I've been reading comics. So many comics. I'll be lucky to break 5k.

It's all just for fun though, so no worries.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
Derp.
