Mrs. C :angel1:
ethanedwards December 28th, 2005, 12:50 PM Hi Clancy,
Have you seen, what that Jay has just punched,
Isn't he a !!!!!!!!!!!
Jay J. Foraker December 28th, 2005, 12:58 PM Hi folks -
It took me about 12 tries to do it - since then the best I've come up with is 209.1.
That darn penguin keeps doing a dive into the snow!!!
Cheers - Jay :D :wacko:
Baby Sister December 28th, 2005, 07:03 PM Okay guys, when you are through wacking penguins and playing in the snow come on in and Smokey and I will set up the shots....I'm thinking some Hot Damm's? (cinnamon schnapps) :o :dead:
Those will warm you up in a hurry!!
Baby Sis
:cowboy: :cowboy: :cowboy:
ethanedwards December 28th, 2005, 07:08 PM Hi Sis,
As you can see I'm here, how are you, my honey bunch?
I wouldn't mind some of that strange drink!
How do you fancy whacking penguins with me,
or do you fancy whacking something else??
Hondo Duke Lane December 28th, 2005, 07:17 PM After I don't know how many tries, :rolleyes: I finally got 316. But I missed more than I hit.
Cheers B)
Baby Sister December 28th, 2005, 07:20 PM :wub: whacking...? I'm a more gentler kind of gal. :wub:
Baby Sis
:cowboy: :cowboy: :cowboy:
chester7777 December 29th, 2005, 12:45 AM Well, Chester's high was 295 and our 17 year old son topped out at 317.2.
I guess we just need to practice - back to the old batting cage!
:headbonk:
Chester :newyear:
ethanedwards December 29th, 2005, 10:34 AM Hi Chester son,
You seem to hold the record, at the moment.
I've just tried again and got 307,
but the old penguin bounced, along the snow, to get to that!

Apparently that is the only way to get some distance with that penguin - bounce him! If you can bat him about halfway up in the sky, that generally gets some distance. Too high and he sticks his beak in the snow somewhere around the 200 mark.
Cheers - Jay :D ^_^ <_< :angry:
smokey December 30th, 2005, 10:20 AM hi baby sis
will go for a coldie as i dont need any warming up at the moment has been hot bout not as hot as where my brother is he had a high of 42C today about 4C higher than we had
ethan got 320.5 just like jay got over the 300 mark more times than not just hold your tounge in the right spot and you can do it too :lol:
see you all later
hooroo smokey
ethanedwards December 31st, 2005, 09:26 PM Hi Smokey,
You obviously have more penguins in Aus,
to practice on,so it's an unfair advantage!!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR
chester7777 January 1st, 2006, 10:42 AM Keith,
My question is this, is the bat we're using a baseball bat, or a cricket bat?
If it's a cricket bat, that may explain how y'all of British heritage are acing the
rest of us. :lol:
Chester :newyear:
ethanedwards January 1st, 2006, 12:49 PM Hi Jim,
Just had another look,
it's too chunky, and fat for a cricket bat, or a baseball bat,
it looks more like a club, the sort cavemen use,
so are you suggesting we are still cavemen??? Ha Ha
chester7777 January 1st, 2006, 09:34 PM Watch out, Keith, she's got a club and she's the reigning champ :headbonk: !
Chester :newyear:
SXViper January 3rd, 2006, 09:08 PM Just hit a 319.8 I had to go back a couple pages, I couldn't figure out what everybody was talking about at 1st.

C'mon, guys, go for it! I'm hoping Jay and etsija will try again.
Hey, nobody's gonna see all the swings and misses! It took me a few before I was making contact, and getting 'into the swing of it,' if you'll pardon the pun.
Most of all, have FUN!
Chester :newyear:
Popol Vuh December 22nd, 2008, 12:09 PM :drinks_wine:Yes!!! I did it! I remember trying for some time last year without beating it, but now I got 323.5.

arthurarnell December 23rd, 2008, 03:48 AM Hi

Regards
Arthur
SXViper December 23rd, 2008, 08:53 AM I just hit a 321.1, its hard to get it just right.
chester7777 December 23rd, 2008, 09:56 AM No penguins are harmed in anyway,during the playing of this game!!
Where's that ROTFL laughing smiley when we need it?? We sure got a good laugh from your comment, Keith! Of course, you realize that even the appearance of harming a penguin disqualifies one for membership at Club Penguin (http://www.clubpenguin.com/).
I just hit a 321.1, its hard to get it just right.
Have you noticed that when you get that guy goin' REAL high, he nosedives in right around 200? If you get him just a little lower, you usually end up around the 300 mark. But you're right - it is hard to get it 'just right.'
Chester :newyear:
avenger December 23rd, 2008, 10:45 AM I did it !! 323.5 !!!!!
dukefan1 December 23rd, 2008, 11:31 AM So far, I can't do any better than 312. But it sure is addictive. :stunned:

Jay J. Foraker December 23rd, 2008, 11:48 AM The best I could do this time around was 322.9 which bettered my last score but didn't quite make the new level. Glad to have it back for a little diversionary fun!
chester7777 December 23rd, 2008, 11:58 AM Wow, you guys are GOOD!
Congratulations, avenger, for your tying score for FIRST place!
And Jay - way to go!!

dukefan1 December 7th, 2009, 12:36 AM The best I could do was 320.3. This can be very addictive and frustrating.
ethanedwards December 7th, 2009, 07:45 PM Just seached and found the the origins of this 'bash',

chester7777 December 17th, 2009, 01:38 AM Here's the link again - for those who want to play again (or maybe the first time) - Penguin Bash (http://www.addictinggames.com/penguinswing.html).
My best score so far is 324! I even beat the Mrs., although she had the foresight to do a screen shot of her 323.5, so all I can do is talk. :tounge_smile:
Chester
arthurarnell November 20th, 2010, 04:04 AM Hi
As Christmas is coming when is the Penguin bash making its next appearance?
Regards
Arthur
chester7777 November 27th, 2010, 08:34 AM Arthur,
Your post led me to realize the link in my post above was no longer good, so I went on a search and found the game again.
So let's go . . . another holiday season swinging away (virtually) at the penguin, to see who can send him the farthest.
PENGUIN BASH (http://www.addictinggames.com/penguinswing.html)
Have fun! And let us know how you do.
Chester :newyear:
dukefan1 November 27th, 2010, 09:28 PM Well, after 2 dozen tries, my best is 320.3 (but that sure wasn't my average :uhoh:)
