"Artists need to make money to eat and to continue to make art. Artists used to rely on middlemen to collect their money on their behalf, thereby rendering themselves innocent of cash-handling in the public eye. Artists will now be coming straight to you (yes YOU, you who want their music, their films, their books) for their paychecks. Please welcome them. Please help them. Please do not make them feel badly about asking you directly for money.” -Amanda Palmer

16,410 on my second game. My attention span wanes with every drink, but.

I am convinced that this game hands out bonuses completely arbitrarily. I did nothing super during my game, apart from trying to put some hella spin on the damn ball and accidentally clicking over to another tab, and yet I continued to be noted for my super curves, even after I had lost a round.

I'm just grousing. I am retarded with love for Pong and its spawn. (The sound effects in the original - lawsy mercy they send pleasant chills.)

This is like pinball.  my high is about 25k so far.  On level five he starts to get a pretty good eye and at level six he develops a wicked curve.

Reminds me of Spela Pong -- liquid.se, click "spela pong" at the bottom of the left nav. This was all the rage a couple years ago, at least in my circle, and it seems as though they've even updated it.

83,875 on my first try - level 19.

I found a trick, though - you can put spin on it (SUPER CURVE!) on your serve, and the computer player really sucks.  So he'll miss it nearly every time.

I discovered that to some extent but didn't manage to pull it off more than about 4 times. In both games.
