		<description>you make a good point...If I were in the top 5 I would probably start to pester them as well...and the rigors of maintaining a life outside of pengo will probably prevent me from getting that high score.  Maybe I&#039;ll submit if I crack top ten :)

Thanks for the tips Ive actually been kind of doing the opposite and hugging the walls and trying to stun them as they came near me regardless of amount of blocks, I&#039;ll give it a try later.</description>

		<description>You don&#039;t think there is any merit in taking a third or fourth slot for any game?  Including Pengo on Twin Galaxies?  I could dedicate my life to getting that top score, and organizing and taping all of the games to that point, but seriously what is the payoff?  Realistically, I think I could get in the top four, and that is good enough for me, so I think I probably will end up bothering with TG at some point for my Pengo scores.

Let&#039;s see, the Level 16 hump.  Does that mean you have gotten to Level 15 in Pengo on the difficulty you have set now?  This is the gameplay tip I would give for those who haven&#039;t broken Level 16 yet in Pengo, or are at around Level 14 or so.  There are two keys, keeping plenty of correction space between you and the Sno-Bees, which means bricks for them to eat through.  At that high level, you have no contest to compete against their speed.  If you are in a wide open, de-bricked area, move away from there at all costs.  

And, because it is a speed and numbers game, get good at memorizing the flashing blocks.  You need to know the unhatched sno-bee eggs in Pengo, and break about 6-8 of them.  Decrease their numbers, so the point at when time increases and they start to speed up, you don&#039;t have to kill the whole sno-bee fleet, but only a couple at the highest speed.

Does that help?  Or was that stuff you already knew?  I like to play the card game &quot;memory&quot;, and that helps me remember where the flashing sno-bee eggs are for breaking them even after their initial one to two flash introduction.

That would be my Pengo arcade game play tips for the higher levels.</description>

		<description>Granted, I&#039;m not in this high a league just yet, but I don&#039;t know if I would bother with Twin Galaxies unless I was taking the top slot. Though I also have a local bar with Pengo where I&#039;ve been in competition for the high score until somebody blew me away with a 315K outing.  Any tips for getting over that level 16 hump?</description>
