[Ellipsis](http://www.armorgames.com/games/ellipsis_popup.html) I can’t make it past level 50 at all. 49 was bad enough. I did make the high score, though, #57. ---

I made 51 my first time. I’m going back in, boys. ---

Addicting? Addictive, surely? ---

Sorry, I got to wave 109, scored 2312275 and got tired of it. Then I noticed the high scores and mine didn’t look so great after all. Ranked 52 GFDC ---

Well, I got to wave 141 and 4,196,450 points. Once you figure the trick to it, it’s not that hard, but for someone like me who hasn’t made a million points on any game before, it was pretty exciting for a while. ---

Blah, 50 after 7 tries. Damn those little white boxes. ---

I like this one I found at the same site: [Four Second Frenzy](http://www.armorgames.com/games/foursecondfirestorm_popup.html) Its a series of 20 or 50 (depending on which option you pick) minigames that last four seconds each. More fun than it sounds, I swear. 🙂 -FrL- ---

I’ve been debating whether to tell about the trick. It takes a lot of the fun out of the game after you’ve done it a few dozen times. Maybe I’d spoiler it if I received a nice enough bribe…er, present. ---

Most squares don’t spawn new squares. Once you get to the white square stage, you mostly have to worry about a certain one. I’m not seeing no bribe…er, present…here. ---

It also has to do with where that certain square is positioned. Gonna try Four Second Frenzy (Firestorm) now that I’ve got my game player updated. ---
