If you've ever participated in a scavenger hunt, you might know about this, but to others, it could be brand new. About six and a half years ago, when the site was in its very infancy (just over a week old), Nate had to do some fixes on the site and it wad down briefly. In its place, there was the Penguin hitting game.

It was an epic gladiatorial contest.

Okay, I'm lying, everybody sucked but EBM.

I thought it was time for a revival.

So I announce the Second YWS Contest to Decide Who Can Hit a Penguin the Farthest.

Current YWS World Record: 647, by electricbluemonkey.

There's no real rules, post your score here. If it's really high, try and post a screencap or nobody will believe you. If you don't know how to post a screencap, you automatically cannot win this game.

There's lots of places to play the game, I use this little site because it's quick to load. But wherever you like.

p.s. I'm really bad at the game.

p.p.s It's possible Nate uploaded a long-hack version, because I can't get farther than 300.

I love you.

And I *still* think EBM cheated somehow.

Ahh! Papa Hut showed me a very similar game a few years ago. It had more gore though. Blood, landmines--intense. This one's much more difficult though. xD Oh, boy.

EDIT: 319.9 just now! Now if I can only double that...

Apparently in this version you can't get higher than 323.5 ... so EBm either cheated, or we used a different version.

Aww. The version I used a long time ago, you were able to get as high as 2k. The landmines really got your penguin far. There might be another version he used!

This version seems to allow you to get around 600, so it might have been the one we originally used.

Everyone, use this!

I'm scared of Jabber. xD She matched the owner's high score.

There are those who say that life is like a book, with chapters for each event in your life and a limited number of pages on which you can spend your time. But I prefer to think that a book is like a life, particularly a good one, which is well to worth staying up all night to finish.
