I Q test (http://www.hurtwood.demon.co.uk/Fun/copter.swf)

[Mad Cyril]

I flew one the other week as a birthday present.

It is quite tricky but if Prince Andrew and Noel Edmunds can manage it i suspect most people could pick it up.

[Fat Bastid]

Distance on first attempt 266.

Still I am a Licenced Helicopter Engineer who has flown the real thing!

Would you be able to supply me with enough 'previously owned' parts to build my own?

I flew a Robinson R22 but if I was going to build my own i would probably go for something in an Airwolf/Blue Thunder style.

Because it doesn&#39;t belong on the &quot;main board&quot;, which is for Southend United related items ONLY ...

I&#39;m sure there&#39;s a smaller version of this somewhere, which is much better in terms of playability

[Leeboy]

[Birri]

[Shagster69]

[Fat Bastid]

OK&#33;

Now try it in &quot;IFR&quot; mode&#33;

Instrument Flight Rules for the records&#33;

Either cover up your screen with a piece of A4 paper or cover your eyes and then see how far you get&#33;

Flying round the wilds of Herfordshire I suppose&#33;

Windybottom - is that all? A Watford fan here at work got 2142.

[windybottom]

F**k off there is no way in the world that could happen I know your lying now yorkshire it just can&#39;t be true.

[Matt the Shrimp]

He&#39;s right, YB - name me one sphere in which Watford do better than Luton, eh?&#33;

Whilst we&#39;re on random games, has anyone ever tried this one. *It&#39;s a bit weird, but quite challenging.

Basically, you have to avoid the obstacles by either spinning out of the way, ducking under them or jumping over them.

Arrow keys to operate it (up = jump, down = duck)

Seconds of Madness (http://www.gotoandplay.it/_games/_som/secondsOfMadness.php)

Let me know what scores are like... I&#39;m struggling to get beyond 240.

Matt

[the dark deshrimper]

101 on first go, very very weird then down hill form there...
imagine seeing Emberson move like that&#33;

[The 4th man]

Madness 160

Copter 2324 &#33;&#33;

[GNH]

Took me 5 goes on the copter thingy but I got 2811&#33;

Madness - 221

[chadded]

First go on the big one, got 1671, and just now 2332. Although I can beat that on the smaller version, I think I prefer the bigger one.
