I got about 32 points in Life. My score goes up every 365 days. I’m hoping to make a world record some day.
So you don’t even get a point a day? Sounds like my literal life, honestly.
I feel that smaller numbers with a bigger impact is far more satisfying than big numbers with little impact.
Also, I’m too lazy to count how many days I’ve been alive. Lol.
Your score goes up?
Well it would be a miracle if it went down.
There’s this mobile game called Egg Inc. I used to play it during my downtime. One update, it had like a leader board pop up.
“you are in the top 0.1% of players!”
… I stopped playing after that.
All 150 caught in the original Pokemon.
Infinity happens in MTG all the time.
Noo, MTG only allows you to go to “arbitrarily high.”
Max score in Universal Paperclips is 30 septendecillion (3×1055). You can get there just by being patient.
I love this game, still got it downloaded on my phone. Really makes you think.
I used to get high Tetris scores on my Ti-83. I was also the geeky kid that learned to download games for the calculator and knew how to transfer them, so my high scores soon began to populate the school. For the next few years, I’d meet recently graduated underclassmen at my university and they’d be like “You’re the guy with the Tetris scores on my calculator!” To this day it may be my biggest claim to fame.
I wonder what the maxout score on a TI83 would be
5000 consecutive bounces on a lolo ball (aka pogo bal)
Those don’t look like they bounce.
Haha. They’re bouncier than they look. There was a huge craze of them in the late 80s where I live. People definitely lost teeth.
1738 keepy ups ! I developed a strain on my ankle that day and stopped playing football entirely
120k on Galaga. Not impressive compared to the world record holders out there, but it takes effort to get that “bad”.

What game were you playing?
Count to 44
I got over a billion points on an Indiana Jones pinball machine once. The ball return was messed up and it just kept kicking the ball back out without registering a lost ball. I played for hours.
I had something like that happen. Played the pinball game that gets loaded on a lot of computers, and the ball ended up in a scenario where it went into one of the top holes where it got points, and every time the hole would spit the ball back out, it would just ricochet back into the hole, causing a point-farming loop. If you see a phone number among the high scores, that would be me, and I was watching Yu-Gi-Oh the whole time.
I played Exponential Idle for a while, and while I lost my highest progress, I have an old save where I got to 101019096.3
The number of digits in that number is itself a number with over 19,000 digits.
It’s so big that if you take the square root - so it has half as many digits, the result would be written about the same but without the “.3” at the end.
I claim that I have won a game of Transport Tycoon. Long ago I reached such wealth that the number turned to negatives and I was unable to recover from my sudden 2,147 billion debt.
The bug is that the highest value my 32 bit CPU could do was 2 147 xxx xxx (I don’t remember every number) and the next bit flipping means that the value is negative. As in, the computer literally can’t handle the number of money I was having.
Don’t remember exactly but I was one of those guys who initials were all over the top 10 in Punch-Out!! in the arcade version.
