    I claim that I have won a game of Transport Tycoon. Long ago I reached such wealth that the number turned to negatives and I was unable to recover from my sudden 2,147 billion debt.

    The bug is that the highest value my 32 bit CPU could do was 2 147 xxx xxx (I don’t remember every number) and the next bit flipping means that the value is negative. As in, the computer literally can’t handle the number of money I was having.

    I got about 32 points in Life. My score goes up every 365 days. I’m hoping to make a world record some day.

    120k on Galaga. Not impressive compared to the world record holders out there, but it takes effort to get that “bad”.

    Once I went to Australia and I had a very long flight. I played Steredenn and I don’t really know how I finished first worldwide after a game that lasted forever.

    And I stopped playing not because I lost, but because this was the end of the flight. More than 7 billions. It was a few years ago and I am the 10th now.

    There’s this mobile game called Egg Inc. I used to play it during my downtime. One update, it had like a leader board pop up.

    “you are in the top 0.1% of players!”

    … I stopped playing after that.

    Not really a score, but a placement. Last week, I placed #43 in the world for the Power Shift game mode for the 4th season of The Finals, #26 in the NA region.

    It’s not a competitive game mode and it’s not a true ranked leaderboard, but there’s not much I’m in the top 0.01% of, so I’m gonna brag about it anyway.

    I played Exponential Idle for a while, and while I lost my highest progress, I have an old save where I got to 101019096.3

    The number of digits in that number is itself a number with over 19,000 digits.

    It’s so big that if you take the square root - so it has half as many digits, the result would be written about the same but without the “.3” at the end.

      But usually only one infinity. In revolution idle, I’ve collected a score of infinite infinities, which collated into an eternity, and have then collected infinite eternities.

      There’s another layer on top of that called a unity, but I am not there yet.
