ARGH! stupid little semicircular thingy of slime! DOWN WITH WHITE SLIME!

_stomps away, obviously annoyed at the fact that the score was 15 to 0, in the white slime’s favor_

Well, I beat the Pathetic White Slime. And then I beat the Angry Red Slimold. But the Slime Master has got my goat.

That black slime…grrrrrr…one-eyed little…$#$$#%@!!!

It plays with godlike ability. Never makes an unforced error - you have to make it so he physically **can’t** return the ball, by spiking him and such. Still haven’t managed to take more than 4 points from him.

Is anyone else reminded of the Monty Python sketch where the Blancmanges are trying to win Wimbledon??

4 points!?!?!? I can’t even get one point off him. His serve is almost unstoppable.

My goal in life now is to score one point off the Black Devil Slime.

Now that’s funny. After I posted, I clicked back over and started another game. Just after I served, the SDMB popped back up because my post was posted (so to speak).

So I’m like “dammit” and hurry to minimize the window. It pops up a second time & I minimize it again. I get back to the game and I’ve scored a point. 'course the slime scored the next 6 in a row.

Wow I went on a real lucky streak. Managed to even get up 2 - nil on the master before he out played me. This game should really come with a gun.

He he heeeeee.

Fourth level, 9942 points.

Beat that, suckers!!

And wait 'till you see what you have to do to get past _that_ level. You thought the black one was bad, at the fourth level, the thing turns into a pulsing color combination that frankly gives me a headache and it continually slam dunks the ball on you. There’s no way to win.

How some of these guy and gals got to the fifth level is beyond me.
