Man how did I miss this? Convention was set up/run by 2 friends, more power to them :) Wish I lived in South Florida to support it, but it's a 4 or 5 hour drive away :( #infinitebits
Actually Boca Raton is on the east coast of Florida. We would have accepted Ft. Myers, St. Augustine, and St. Petersburg as gulf coast cities with lots of old people.
Only in South Florida could you have cities named Boca Raton and Miami Gardens, and Boca Raton (which means Snake Mouth) is the safer city of the 2.
...and my mistake was more egregious. Why would St. Augustine (only known for being the country's oldest city) be on the Gulf Coast? Like Ponce de Leon said, "We have discovered the new world after a long, treacherous journey, but let's not make landfall right away. Instead, let us sail around this land mass for another couple months before settling."
Being good at Pac-Man is much like being good at never, ever, having sex or any other sexual contact with a human being, oh wait, it's actually exactly like that. Someone should round up the greatest Pac-Man players and kick'em in the nuts so they know for certain that they are losers.
@RRRansom: I can only imagine what we would have seen had the filmmakers primarily followed Mitchell instead. Probably much hooker killing and drug abuse.
@kobeashi: Its not only 256 levels. Think about the four power pellets in each level. And for the perfect score you need to capture all four ghosts with each power pellet.

@Antiterra: Sorry, I took the last one, but I'm sure there's plenty of "Rejoiced at in youth repented in age" or one of the best sellers:
"Smoking I Will Crazy". Oh, and dont forget, ask carmina2008 for the Kotaku special discount! :P
3 hours, 41 minutes, and 22 seconds (divided by) 256 levels = roughly 52 seconds per a level?

Just imagine if you'd be going for 3 hours, doing it perfectly and then you just miss a cherry or something...I can't imagine how I would react, it would probably involve tearing out the eyes of the person closest to me.
I hope I never have so much free time to devote to such a ridiculously crazy task. I love my games as much as the next Kotakuite but isn't this just ridiculous?

Is there another St Augustine other than the one up on the river near Jacksonville? That's not gulf coast by a long shot either =)

I would've linked a less scary picture, but every other one features him in tight jeans, so this is the safest.

I get annoyed enough playing the same level of CoD on veteran over and over again, and we're talking about 5 minute chunks of game there.
