I decided to set the all-time, definitive record last January. Took me a week,
(using the tab key to pause), but no cheating with 256 colors: used a Levco
Prodigy. My wave 21 Shrapwarden strategy was based on George Lee's Dumple
strategy (I'd like to thank all the little people: Billy Barty, etc.). By
the way, here's the kind of bug most people don't test for: once you spend
more than an hour on a single wave, the last part of the text "Time:" is 
obscured by the hour digit. When I absolutely couldn't stand it any more,
I moved off 21 and made it to 69 before croaking (with a couple smart bombs
left, yet!). Total: 22,219,375. When MPW compiles in the background, it could
be a telling blow to the game industry!
 
Their new Critter Editor looks interesting: paste in a scan of anyone you want
to shoot at (and sounds as well).

By the way, anyone heard anything new from LaCie on their software for their
80 meg internal? Love the drive, hate the driver. If their disk cache is the
problem, it would be nice to be able to turn it off when I'm testing: 
remounting after every reset is not viable.
