    • Most Ducks You've Launched?

      15 21 388

      In the spirit of the release of Pop I propose Ambrosia should give away 1 license to the person who has the most ducks! (Doubt they will) but what's the most you've launched? Make your captures from legit games and no doctoring.. below I have 19 ducks visable, I'm pretty sure I launched a couple more by the time I won.

      Just imagine what one well placed green ball could do...

    • I rarely find ducks that annoying. Even larger scale attacks don't bother me cause while they try to pump out more ducks I'm bombing them or using the blow attack. I rarely lose to a duck.

    • Usually duckies are more helpful than hurtful. They usually end up keeping the ball in the playing area longer, so you only hurt yourself by casting them off.

      Oh, I dunno about that. I think Ducky can actually be a pretty effective weapon if you make enough of 'em. They cause the player's ball to bounce at odd angles, causing them to miss the important black bricks, or they'll miss the ball entirely and it hits the backboard, dropping everything down a notch.

      Well, I hope your victories feel nice and hollow.

      Then again, those ducks below the line sometimes help by bouncing the ball back up - in case the player missed it they get a second chance.

    • Whar are you using to take these pictures? I assume all the Mods are using SnapzPro seeing as it's an Ambrosia product after all...............

    • Trouble with that is it interrupts the game - a normal screenshot (command-shift-3 without snapz pro open) works fine.

      That's a lot of ducks.. it does make my snap look like nothing... but I'm wondering where the "elapsed time" is? how long did it take you to do that?

      Um... how is what I said hollow? I find the bombs and the blow attack more effective... I'm sorry.
