A new unimportant accomplishment

On the frivolous accomplishment front, I managed to score 85 goals against the hardest level of Football Champ, with 3 minute games and plenty of significant highscores already recorded in the game.

It may not be immediately clear that 85 is absolutely beyond ridiculous. To give an idea, when I play to do beautiful things (as opposed to scoring the boring, "easy" ways over and over), scoring about 55 in the conditions above is what I'd consider par. As the goal count goes higher, however, things get increasingly harder. When the score gets to 60, it means things went quite well. By 65, it's one of those games in which everything goes my way. Reaching 70 happens only every so often, and anything of that nature can usually be labelled as insane. I've only scored over 80 a few times. And, until recently, never 85.

There are extra difficulty factors thrown in. While still going for nice plays, in one of the first four "easy" games I got mis-synchronized with the machine and scored only 8 or so, and therefore the scoring average for the 6 remaining games is over 12. Oh and by the way, I got to play against England in the 6th game, which is extra hard on top of all of the above.

Nevertheless, I could have scored a few more goals. A couple joystick misses here, a few seconds of not being fully concentrated over there, and a handful of miscalculations of the pixel precise alignment variety thrown in... the usual stuff. The thing is that in most coins, I play like that for a while only. What hardly ever happens is that I manage to be fully concentrated into executing at that level for about an hour. Oh well, perhaps next time I am inspired I'll get to 90.

PS: in case anybody familiar with the game finds this hard to believe, I make recordings of every coin I play.
