To Admin, gordonshumway, and all members:
After close examination of the graphic posted by Admin, I have discovered the reason for all the controversy is that the URL for the graphic displayed is different than the URL link provided in this TOPIC.
The game "gordonshumway" plays at:
http://www.funny-city.com/cartoons/peng ... ball.shtml
has slightly different graphics and potential for much higher scoring than the TOPIC game link:
http://www.n.ethz.ch/student/mkos/pinguin.swf
I, personally played the game at http://www.funny-city.com/cartoons/peng ... ball.shtml site and in only a few attempts was able to score 558.6, whereas the highest score I have been able to achieve at TOPIC link site is 323.4.
Lets all cool down and agree that we have been trying to "compare apples to oranges".

I believe you have solved a mystery ALFanatic. I didn't even realize there was more than one version of the game...

ALF.
My suggestion was intended as a means to possibly resolve any potential controversy, prior to having now identified the actual source of problem.
See no reason to now be concerned with my suggestion. If you wish to post score achieved by playing the game at the original link that was provided in this Topic, simply just go ahead and post score; however, if you wish to post score achieved by playing game at another site link, then best you identify URL for that site along with your posted score.
In answer to your queston about right click on mouse that was mentioned in my suggestion, the Browser you are using should not matter. Once you have played game and screen is showing results, right click mouse anywhere on the screen and a menu should appear offering several options including "print". If you then left clicked mouse on the menu "print" option, you should be able to printout the results screen on your printer.
