    IDK. Goodreads said I’m in their top 1% for the year lol, and I only track the books I haven’t read before.

    Not a game, but I don’t look at game high scores and other people are doing random stuff too.

    I got about 32 points in Life. My score goes up every 365 days. I’m hoping to make a world record some day.

    There’s this mobile game called Egg Inc. I used to play it during my downtime. One update, it had like a leader board pop up.

    “you are in the top 0.1% of players!”

    … I stopped playing after that.

    Once I went to Australia and I had a very long flight. I played Steredenn and I don’t really know how I finished first worldwide after a game that lasted forever.

    And I stopped playing not because I lost, but because this was the end of the flight. More than 7 billions. It was a few years ago and I am the 10th now.

    I claim that I have won a game of Transport Tycoon. Long ago I reached such wealth that the number turned to negatives and I was unable to recover from my sudden 2,147 billion debt.

    The bug is that the highest value my 32 bit CPU could do was 2 147 xxx xxx (I don’t remember every number) and the next bit flipping means that the value is negative. As in, the computer literally can’t handle the number of money I was having.

      But usually only one infinity. In revolution idle, I’ve collected a score of infinite infinities, which collated into an eternity, and have then collected infinite eternities.

      There’s another layer on top of that called a unity, but I am not there yet.

    120k on Galaga. Not impressive compared to the world record holders out there, but it takes effort to get that “bad”.

    I used to get high Tetris scores on my Ti-83. I was also the geeky kid that learned to download games for the calculator and knew how to transfer them, so my high scores soon began to populate the school. For the next few years, I’d meet recently graduated underclassmen at my university and they’d be like “You’re the guy with the Tetris scores on my calculator!” To this day it may be my biggest claim to fame.
