DIG DUG

This classic is one of my all-time favorites. I began feeding quarters into this machine while standing on a stool when I was around 8, and I still play it on my Game Boy Advanced. Last month, it occurred to me that I was approaching it the wrong way. This was one of the first big time coin-ops. Back then, points were the goal, not level advancement. This epiphany has drastically improved my Dig Dug experience.
For the last month, I’ve been consumed. I don’t know what score is high enough for me to be satiated, but my highest thus far is 99,670. I can’t seem to break the 100K barrier, but I challenge ANYONE to get as close as I have. I’m willing to put money as well as my reputation as a 5-tool-gamer on the line.
