    Glad someone listed an outrageous score, though....rather than just 1-upping slowly toward a perfect score and hiding the fact that  they were cheating.  Not sure how they can tell at this point if anyone posting high scores (aside from the obvious cheats that score higher than possible) is playing for real or not.

    Exactly why the Integrity is completely lost on something Pearl Jam tried to do fun for their fans. 
    IT'S EVOLUTION BABY!!!!!

    Yep...

    I think the whole game is in question when I can crank 8 homers out with Boom.  Dude is almost 65!!  :lol:

    What is the high # for Boom so far, did someone get 12 with him?
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Also...they seem to quick pitch me with Boom each time.  Maybe they are adjusting for his reflexes.

    Rules state max score. Obviously people have found a cheat. It was fun for a few days at least. Hope PJ doesn't reward these hacks....
    Crookedcross is still the leader in my book.
    Let's hope so.  Wonder if that 6241 is legit.  I live by "you don't win second place" Haha

    I've used Boom a few times. Best I've done with him is 12 for 5230. Longest bomb to center was 453. Easier to get his to go to dead center area.

    It would be nice if they had a high score leaderboard for every player. It would make it more challenging and take the focus off using Matt every time.

    Personally, I'm taking a break from Matt for a while. Going to see what high scores I can get with the rest of the band.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Nice, good to see it can be done with Boom @ 64 and almost 65.  The Big Hawaiian rocks!

    Yesterday was productive as I managed to avoid Cyber Monday trappings.
    Not so much today as I found this game and have spent the better part of the morning playing it :lol:
    Awesome move, PJ. What a great idea :smiley::clap:
    Finally crossed the 6K threshold w/ 6,047, but not enough for the leaderboard.

    Anyone else get the glitch that sometimes occurs when you 'Replay' a game? The pitcher winds up, the screen pauses for a flash, and then the pitch seemingly shoots out of his arse for a strike?

    For those wondering about the hack of the game. I can confirm that it is possible. As the game is javascript at the core. It can be intercepted utilizing the appropriate tools and modified to reset the time left when the game starts. 
    Additionally, the game also discloses the top hitters email addresses which can be considered as PII information under some contexts. 

    Great idea! but wasn't executed correctly.

    On the other end. I have also gotten successfully 8-10 hr in a row. Time your swing when the pitcher raises their knee.

    I legitimately got to 1198 which is currently 8th place. Not sure how much higher I'd be without the hackers.

    Anyone else hearing a new layer of crowd noise added to playing the game? And that new layer of crowd noise is very VERY loud.

    Latest update is ..

    Yes, crowd noise is very loud now starting after the 6 pitch.

    That's a shame people are cheating. No point now.

    I think the crowd gets louder as you hit more home runs. If you start missing they quiet down again.

    Yes but this is an added sound file that is playing in the background. It's very loud. Even if I missed all the hits it keeps playing. When I hit a run I can hear the audio byte of the cheering but also the loud overlay of crowd noise.

    I don't care about the prizes, so I'm still digging it.
    (I guess I'm easily amused.)
    Just heard the midi version of Jeremy. How cute.
