Wow. I may be showing my lack of play of said game, but is it possible to get a score like that - I thought all scores on it have to end in 0 or 5, although am quite happy to be corrected.
I've certainly not seen a score in that league before, but I could imagine it being just about achieveable if it's in easy mode and starts dishing out lots of complete sets etc. once you're past the target. That said, the ending in 4 business puzzles me.

Agreed Grecian on both observations- have sat here for 5 minutes trying to suss out how it could be possible but to no avail. More likely a typo by OP.

the smallest possible increment is 10 points for coming second in a beauty contest. (i came first because i'm a stunner :x )
nobody ever wins on those things.

Given the score is dated yesterday, PP, I take it either that (a) you are the man behind the score, in which case well done, and how much did you win; or (b) it had been done on the very same day you wandered in (a big coincidence!) Which was it?
