Default Random Contest V2 - 10K credit prize

Hey everyone! I'm bored again, so I'm going to give out another 10k credits in a contest. Here's how it's going to work.

Whoever can get the highest score on Story of a Snowman and Sunshine Girl (The level 4 version) will win, but here's how your score will be calculated:

Averages * Goods - (Perfects * Boos) = Score

Contest end date: Monday, July 13th, 2:00PM EST

Have fun.

Scores
leonid - 56,504
bubblechamber - 54,271
mongeese - 40,426


I would really appreciate those that calculate there own score. If it doesn't seem right (& Yes, I'll be able to tell) I'll just calculate it myself.

Do you mean
Averages * Goods - Perfects + Boos = Score
or
Averages * Goods - (Perfects + Boos) = Score?

In the first version, you want to get boos, while in the second, you don't.

Hahaha, more contests.

I won one of these already though, so I'll let someone else go for a win. =)

I mean the first way, you want to get boos, but now that I think about it. It might be harder the second way so I'll change it.

New update to the score calculator. Instead of adding perfects & boos to decide what to subtract. I will now multiply perfects & boos. I've realized adding them will make almost no difference at all.

Double post, sorry. Do you guys think it'd be better if I added misses into the calculation? Or keep it the way it is?

Nice, new high score. It seems more people aren't really into this Random Contest.

I'm trying, the window for averages is just so small though.

Yet still I get tons of perfects, giving up now >.>

Dude, you don't need to block off the bottom of the screen. Just cut off the top, and you'll have more time to read the notes. Experiment with the best place to cut the screen.

And another tip, 'cause more competition's fun: make sure to get both your averages and goods up. 500 averages and 2 goods is a much, much lower score than 251 avg and 251 goods. The highest score is an even split between averages and goods.

I'm well aware of that. However I'm incapable of consistently getting averages, as such I was trying to rely entirely on my reaction speed in hopes causing hits somewhere in the vicinity of the average window. Yet still I was managing to hit more perfects than otherwise. I'm going to give it a few more shots, but it's quite trying.
