    Highlights:
    0:11 Actual game start
    2:48 First round cleared (after some point grinding by all the tunneling) with 8,330 points.
    3:56 20,000 points reached (where you would get your first extra life on the default game settings) clearing Round 3.
    8:12 100,000 points reached during Round 9
    15:32 Round 18 reached with just over a quarter of a million points - all rounds after this will have the pineapple as the bonus vegetable.
    25:06 First death - Round 28
    47:35 First million point rollover - Round 54
    1:00:22 Round 70 reached - at this point the flower "indicators" along the top of the screen stop changing and will remain this way until the round counter rolls over at Round 100. This repeats later for the second cycle of the round counter.
    1:22:47 Round counter rolls over - note flowers disappear and will start reappearing again in the previous patterns! This also repeats for the second cycle of the round counter.
    1:41:46 Starting at Round 124, the enemies will actually start slowing down outside of the tunnels and sometimes their AI will glitch out, causing them to freeze in place and allowing the player to point grind by tunneling all over the place in peace.
    1:56:23 Second death early in Round 134.
    3:29:00 Third death in Round 174.
    4:02:44 Second round counter rollover - score is just over four million points.
    4:51:15 Fifth and final score rollover when grabbing veggie on Round 248.
    5:02:56 Killscreen on Round 256 - player loses remaining lives at this point and lets continue offer expire (as per TG rules).

      I find it just as impressive to timestamp this, but unfortunately playing for 5 hours is more impressive + high score

      Minor correction: 58:51 Round 68 reached. This is the most flowers that display and due to not being able to display another flower for Round 69, it gets stuck displaying flowers that count up to 68 until Round 100. It happens at Round 68 not at Round 70 as you put.

    My current record is 43,800 at Round 9. I have studied your early gameplay tactics and will be applying them. The local Dig Dug league doesn't know what's gunna hit them.

    My record was 1.213 million when I was 16 yrs old in 1984. Dont remember which screen I ended up on but it was around 130 which makes me wonder how this dude got a million points in only 53 screens when it took me double that. Anyway, I played it again a few yrs ago and couldn't believe how boring it was.

      You loved it back in the day because it was still fairly new and fresh and you didn't know any better (no one knew any better). BTW, your record of 1.213 million would put you at number 4 in the world according to Twin Galaxies. It's sad that back in those days it was difficult to often have a record set by them since you needed to be refereed by Walt Day himself.
