These are the full, expanded threads from the preserved GameFAQs threads. I had to exercise some wicked Perl voodoo to extract the actual text, bad HTML and all, from the archives provided by RockMFR 5 (and DistantSpring54), and patch up the code so it's valid. We couldn't preserve the links to the author name or message detail because they don't seem to work anymore.

I've been off the top 10 combined for quite a while now. :) I actually haven't played in quite some time. I don't think I'm off by too terribly much, though, and that 400 on FN can certainly come up. That should probably get me back to #10 or so, where I hope to hang on. Probably not until April though. :)

WHOO HOO!

Managed to get 532 in Forest of Hope ..

Four 1-pellets that went into the wrong onion, 8 deaths thanks to a hungry Bulborb, and I missed the red-5 pellet and the yellow-20.

It feels soooo close! :D

Posted by robluvsnic - 3/16/2003 4:21:09 PM

Well, it's been a while since I posted a new high, mostly because I've been playing the main game a lot lately. But here it is at last:

FT ÷ 259

So close to 272 (one male sheargrub and a yellow ten right under the onions at lift-off), but enough to get me back into the top 20, nevertheless. I'm aiming for 279 ÷ everything but the blue 20 ÷ which I think I can actually get eventually.

But here's a potential new record: twice now I've had Snagret come up fast 12 times before it came up slow!

Posted by Master Bowser782 - 3/16/2003 7:42:33 PM

Something weird happened to me at The Distant Spring. When I reached the frog that was closest to the ClamClamp, it gave me a blue five in which I was happy to see because I had 2 before I killed it. But after I got the pearl I went to get the blue 5s but when I reached one of them, it started to move and when five Pikmin got on it the blue five moved like crazy and then it disappeared into the ground. Did any of this happened to you guys?

Master Bowser

Posted by TomatoMan - 3/16/2003 7:54:34 PM

I've seen that happen. It usually pops back up when it happens to me - if you can affect the area around it somehow (run pikmin through it, especially if they're carrying something), that will often make it reappear.

Posted by Rogue7 - 3/17/2003 8:20:06 AM

New high:

FN - 470

Combined Total - 2198

I got into a big rut on DS, so I switched over to FN. I was actually going for 455 by ignoring the last three fives and making sure the BLL pellets get in, but I made such good time on this run that I had to try to get them in. I would like to go for 480/482, the hardest part (for me) is the honeywisp and getting the yellow 10 in the water, but I think I can get it with practice. Maybe when the DVD comes out I'll get a better idea of what Mike does there.

Congratulations rogue, i hope you keep at it and get a perfect 482. Its great to see new high scores after quite a barren spell.

I played pikmin for the first time in about a month at the weekend, a magazine is doing a challenge to get a high score on FoH. I had two quick practice runs, then started taping and got 569 on my first go, so me playing pikmin again was shortlived.

Got metroid prime on friday though, phenomenal game.

Do you get a prize Mike? I can just imagine the potential racketeering that could be started by the high scorers from this board. Reading the world's gaming magazines looking for Pikmin high-scores competitions in order to sweep the pool and live off the prizes. ;-)

Congrats, Rogue, for a major jump in your score. And it sounds like you've done it in a way that no one else has considered. I look forward to seeing you post a 482 soon.

Posted by Mikepharvey - 3/18/2003 5:03:10 PM

Well, i could do if i win, the magazine sets 4 challenges all from different games usually, and they give a load of peripherals to the winner who got the biggest margin over everyone else out of all the challenges. I wont find out for 2 months though.
The magazine did a challenge for impact site in august, and that is what got me into pikmin in such a big way, and i sent in a 278 video, my first perfect. i never recieved my prize though so i will have to email them one day for it.

Posted by Rogue7 - 3/18/2003 5:12:53 PM

Thanks, Mike, rob. I am following Mike's write up that he posted some time back, except I'm ignoring the yellow 10 in the water in the beginning and using two grass patches as opposed to one and a honeywisp. It wasn't too hard to pick up since the middle part and some of the beginning is pretty similar to what I already do, and the rest Mike makes very straightforward. It's a very awe-inspiring strat and my hat's off to Mike. If I do reach 480/482 it will be a testimony to Mike's strat and I'll always be more proud of my 452. Thanks again Mike!

For IS CM what order of pellets does the flint beetle give you? I always hit the beetle 4 times. Come to think of it, I have a new IS score.

In IS CM, the flint beetle pellets are always blue.

1 = blue 1
2 = nectar
3 = nectar
4 = blue 5
5 = blue 1
6 = nectar
7 = nectar
8 = blue 5

A clean sweep of IS is 264; you can get 14 more from the flint beetle for a maximum known total of 278.

Whoo hoo!

FT ÷ 278

If it weren't for one stupid mysterious death on the snagret, I would have brought in everything that my strategy allows for (i.e. everything bar the blue 20). Looks like I might even have to go for the perfect ÷ who would ever have thought it possible?

But, no, for the moment I think I'll return to Impact Site to see if I can tackle that flint beetle. Just enough hits for a five pellet and a one pellet should do for now (maybe two one pellets; we'll see).

Nice work rob, now you gotta whale on that flint beetle. Of course, perfecto on FT wouldn't be a bad thing either.

I wish I had some new scores to report, but I've been uninspired. Worse, I now posses the new Zelda, a game I've been waiting for since the Cube came out...

Keep pluggin' on IS MasterBowser!

Posted by robluvsnic - 3/26/2003 4:29:36 PM

Great News, TM! Soon you'll be able to bask in the satisfaction and warm glow which comes from seeing all your hard work finally being appreciated.

And, Rouge, thanks for the support. I know what you mean about not being able to report new highs. I get hardly any time to play Pikmin. Not because I've got Zelda ÷ and, ooh, do I envy you in that respect! ÷ but just because I don't get that much time to play. Plus my wife has now gotten back into FoH (new high of 520), so we have to share what spare time we have to play the game.

And, MasterBowser, I've got my eye on you. You've already knocked me down a place or two on one list. Let's not have a repeat of that, okay? It's perfectly fine for you to be improving your scores, but please bear in mind my signature ;-)

A minor improvement:

FN ÷ 366

After having a few runs at the flint beetle in Impact Site to try to better my 264 I have decided not to give up playing Forest Navel. Who needs to whack a beetle for extra pellets, when there are heaps of extra tens and twenties just lying around, free for the taking, in Forest Navel? I've found myself a new strategy, which can get me 390, and possibly without too much hair-pulling, so I'll give that a few runs and hopefully, after next weekend, I'll be able to report an even better score.

rob, DistantSpring54, nice work on the new scores. Hey DS (or anybody else), I have volumes 3 and 4 of this thread on Word. If you want a copy, let me know here or write me at: Rogue7@digizine.com

Bad news for the rebel forces - my 'Cube is not working. It will play for awhile and then give a "Disk cannot be read" message. I think this same thing happened to Ahlyis some time back. Anyway, it's past warranty, so I don't know what I'm going to do...

No new high scores here, but I did finally take a picture so that we can remove the stupid asterisks from my scores.

Here's the address for the pic:

This is the darker of the two pics I took. In the other one you can see the empty beer bottle and soda cans sitting on the desk next to the tv. :-) But there is a glare on the screen which blocks some of the scores, so I just posted this one. If anyone really wants to see the other for some reason, let me know.

Great site you got their TM. I didnt realise you put so much effort into getting your 278, but the feeling of achievement you got must have been 10 times greater than if you had got it sooner. I also read the first challenge mode thread as well, it was very interesting seeing peoples early efforts and now i understand why snap gets the amount of recognition he does, he was pretty awesome back then. I would love to see the second thread if anybody has it.

Unlucky about the cube Rogue, just as you were approaching perfection on forest navel, major pain in the arse.

Congrats to everyone on their new scores.

Completed metroid prime today, dont think it has the same replay value as pikmin though.

Posted by robluvsnic - 4/1/2003 8:14:18 PM

TomatoMan! That's awesome! Who would have thought that 278 on IS was possible?! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Er, sorry for that belated outburst. I've just been reading through all the archived challenge mode topics, and I was so engrossed in TM's struggle to master IS that I felt I couldn't let it go with out contributing to the "propz" (TM's word) for that amazing feat. It reminds me (albeit anachronistically) of the Nathan/Mike battle and the astounding scores that came out of that. Such a shame that the second thread was lost. That's the one in which I first came on board, and I just love reading my own work ;-)

Back on topic, though, I managed, whilst lying sleepless in bed last night to complete fine-tune a potential strategy for 402 on FN. I think it's achievable, unlike any battle with that %&^$#* beetle, so I hereby vow to devote my Pikmining days to attaining that goal.

BTW, back off topic, it was so funny reading through those early days of challenge mode posts, when everyone referred to more than one pikmin as "pikmins". Then, mysteriously, as if through some unspoken agreement, the pluralised form of "pikmin' took hold. (Okay, not so interesting/funny to some, but I am an English/writing guy, after all.)

Thanks for the kind words on the site, everyone. Glad you're enjoying it. I've been wanting to put it together for a long time now, it's good to have it even partially done.

Rogue suggested I add a timeline with the top combined score, which is an interesting idea. He even dug into the threads and figured out when the lead changes occurred. He observed that Mike is entering a SnapDragon-like period of dominance in terms of how long his lead has lasted. :) I should see if I can get a nice graph made. Lemme see what I can come up with.

I agree that it's tragic that the second thread is gone. I keep hoping there's a way to get the WayBack Machine to give it up, but I haven't been able to it. I had a brief exchange with the guy that codes GameFAQs to ask if he had archives, or whether the database really did get purged. He insisted there were no archives, which I think is REALLY unfortunate, but there it is. :(

On the issue of the old threads, I've been rereading them all day (and not getting a lick of work done), and I've noticed two things: (1) I'm missing page 10 from CM4 ÷ I've got the files, but just not the page10.html; and (2) my combined score is at 1789, which would have been enough to make the top ten, once upon a time (i.e. when the top ten combined was first envisioned). That makes me feel a bit better about my Pikmin achievements.

Then, mysteriously, as if through some unspoken agreement, the pluralised form of "pikmin' took hold. (Okay, not so interesting/funny to some, but I am an English/writing guy, after all.)

yeah i noticed that too, i thought it was very funny.

I know page 10 is missing from CM4 - no idea what happened, it just ain't there. I'm hoping Rock can send me a copy of his CM4 archive, and the CM2 archive as well.

If he does, I'll whip up a quick Perl script and reformat these things so they're easier to read and move through. The present archives work, but they're on the clumsy side.

I'm going to play Pikmin some more tonight. I'm hoping (keyword: hoping) to break my DS record on the same day I turn Level 30 (today). Let's hope I get "dumb bulborbs" (the ones that don't seem to notice that your Pikmin exist).

About the Pikmin/Pikmins thing, I just pluralized it like "Pokemon" and left it alone. If it ended with anything else instead of an n, I'd probably put an s (es, ies) as plural.

Typical! I always get beat. Seriously, though, congrats MasterBowser, and you too, Distant Spring.

I managed to find an hour to play last night, and not only did I keep stuffing up the start so much that I had to reset about 12 times, but I also realised that I miscalculated on my strat, such that I had one less blue than I thought I had. As a consequence, I didn't even get to finish a run.

Rogue7, do you happen to have posts 451-500 of the 4th topic? (page 10 at 50 posts/page; since I don't know what your post settings are, I'll just say the post #s) They're missing from TomatoMan's archive. If you have them, e-mail the posts to me (post, date, & time) perhaps in an attachment but remember that I only have 2 MB account space. I'll be publicizing my e-mail on GameFAQs shortly.

I just read back over the posts from the last few days, and ...

Rogue, tragic news! Really sorry to hear it. I hope your cube recovers soon. Just when I was sure you going to blind us all by hitting the perfect on FN.

DS, Rock sent me his complete archives, which include the missing page in CM4 and also provides the second thread, which I lost. All props to him!

I'm going to reformat these so they can be browsed a little easier, and then put them up again on my site. Probably over the weekend.
