Of course, because Penguins are winning...

Winston Smith (of George Orwell's 1984) says it never happened. You were never winning.

Could it be true? Am I winning?


You are right ......:-)

Random thinking is good, just look at the improbability drive from Hitchikers Guide

Now as for the rest of you lot, you can have a free one way ride with a vogan destructor to another part of the universe where they might be making a galactic freeway.

By doing this I win, besides I won for 3 hrs last time around.
Who thinks they are going to top that?

I remember that pc game, something about having tea and no tea, both at the same time.

Marvin says the Penguin wins!

Everyone else can listen to Vogron poetry:

Oh freddled gruntbuggly,
Thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits
On a lurgid bee.
Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes
And hooptiously drangle me
With crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon,
See if I don't!

Check out my accomplishment on the Space Penguins game. He's been stuck in a slowly degrading flight path for over two hours now. He'll never reach the space ship but I'm betting it will be at least another 6 hours before he hits the planet. Almost all of the spinny things have disappeared since I last looked. (Pay special attention to the distance :)

Lets not let all this orbiting take too many cpu cycles away from Rosetta, lol !

Besides, I don't know for exactly how long the Penguin could hold his breath.

What did H2G2 say about that?

From Wikipedia:

The title The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is often abbreviated as "HHG", "HHGG", "HHGTTG", or "H2G2". The series is also often referred to as "The Hitchhiker's Guide", "Hitchhiker's", or simply "[The] Guide."

ahh! well if it was hhg then i would understand, but i see now.

still on level 18 and orbiting, 700,000+ in distance and no degrading of orbit.
might as well let him sit there for a bit, don't know if you can change orbit or not. Theres people out there with 1 million points so might as well try to get close.

Here we go again, poor Penguin:

The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy says that if you hold a lungful of air you can survive in the total vacuum of space for about thirty seconds. However it goes on to say that what with space being the mind boggling size it is the chances of getting picked up by another ship within those thirty seconds are two to the power of two hundred and sixty-seven thousand seven hundred and nine to one against.
