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

    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.

      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.

    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.

    I used to get high Tetris scores on my Ti-83. I was also the geeky kid that learned to download games for the calculator and knew how to transfer them, so my high scores soon began to populate the school. For the next few years, I’d meet recently graduated underclassmen at my university and they’d be like “You’re the guy with the Tetris scores on my calculator!” To this day it may be my biggest claim to fame.

    Max score in Universal Paperclips is 30 septendecillion (3×1055). You can get there just by being patient.

    I got over a billion points on an Indiana Jones pinball machine once. The ball return was messed up and it just kept kicking the ball back out without registering a lost ball. I played for hours.

      I had something like that happen. Played the pinball game that gets loaded on a lot of computers, and the ball ended up in a scenario where it went into one of the top holes where it got points, and every time the hole would spit the ball back out, it would just ricochet back into the hole, causing a point-farming loop. If you see a phone number among the high scores, that would be me, and I was watching Yu-Gi-Oh the whole time.

    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.

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

    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.
