Knife toss!
It's a lot of fun. A little tricky.
Edit, my best score was 2000.
Most of the time, I end up with a knife in her face. :wacko: I keep trying to hit those two hard targets.
All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."

Meh, need more coffee to steady my hand.

I managed 3450. That's a fun little game.
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,

[right][snapback]104068[/snapback][/right] 2400 is my best so far. I was playing it safe aiming at the her left side target and leading the right amount. It's more fun to go for the head targets, but I usually get her between the eyes eventually. :)

got to 3000.
Holy crap, I just realized that the board she's on is an optical illusion rotating in the opposite direction.

I hope married life is treating you well, and is not acting as a motivation for tossing knives at rotating women, AKA dizzy dames. :lol:

Bah, late response.
Married life is treating me very well, thank you. After six years of dating, the transition hasn't been difficult at all. I'm just finishing up my BA, and she's working as a substitute teacher. We'll be moving away from the coast soon so that I can go to school, and her parents aren't very happy about it - I think it's safe to say that they cause me far more grief than she ever will. I've heard that this situation is not unique... :D
I shouldn't really complain - it's not actually that bad. On the whole, they've actually been pretty good to me. :)
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased

Sorry to bring this back from the dead. Just tested out the old throwing arm after a long break. Perfect score (5000), first time. I retire as champion. Look at that grouping!
I really don't know why I love this game so much...

[right][snapback]105961[/snapback][/right] Does your dear sweet wife know you have a "knife throwing at women" fetish? Does she own a Kevlar™ blouse? :lol:

If anyone needs a kevlar vest, it's me! :whistling: :D Oooooo, she's feisty!
Just kidding, of course. As I hinted at earlier, we'll be passing the vest on to someone else, now.
This time comes for everyone. I've reached the pinnacle of my sport, and it's time to move on, while I still have my dignity.
It seems to be taking longer for her to recover from the nicks and bruises than it used to (you know how it is), and oh, how my throwing shoulder burns! The ache keeps me awake at night - I've started to need the painkiller injections every day, before practice. I take them at the same time as my performance-blend vitamin cocktail. It's no way to live.
We do have our future to consider. Family is priority number one.
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
