[MODDED] I can laugh now, but my heart was in my mouth for the whole 900-999 section (for perspective, I almost bravo'd on the last section change!). I knew I was on for a good time and just played horribly at the end - I didn't even survive the credits roll as you can see. But it doesn't matter because I can now say I achieved GM, and as far as I can tell, I'm the first British player to do it, hooray!
Well done! What will you do now? Time attack it, or move on to TAP? If you\'re shooting for a time attack, the best known times outside Japan are just over 10 minutes (jago) and just under 11 minutes (me). Also, it\'s really disorienting to see you with that avatar... I made that mine back when I first attained Gm, and kept it for years. Keep it though, you\'ve earned it! I\'ve got a new avatar now anyways.
Sorry about the \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ people, it seems my work computer doesn\'t like \'\'\'\' for some reason. How the crap it adds the \\ I\'ll never know.
Badly written proxies (or proxies on badly configured PHP) add a backslash before every quote mark. It happens to one of the regulars on forum.gbadev.org too.
I'm moving on to TAP. Playing lots of TA Death really helped me break the GM barrier in TGM, I forgot to mention before but my GM run above was literally my first game after an hour straight of TA Death and it felt easy right up until I got nervous at lvl 900 TGM just feels sluggish now, which was part of why I've been so frustrated up til last night.
Congratulation and good luck! The next is "M" grad !! But..Are you sure to be the first, maybe I'm wrong but I thank there was another british Gm before you...
