Man are there some killer time wasters on the Internet. Brian found this gem involving a penguin and an abominable snowman. I don’t think any description is necessary. My current high score is 587.1, although Derrick broke 590. Without skipping I’ve gone as far as 490. This could last me days.

492.9. I can’t get him to skip – not more than like 200 feet or so. But I’m sure I’ll get the hang of it
dude…I think it’s a polar bear. It’s even left handed (good bit of consistency there) :p
That is the most godawful ugly polar bear I’ve ever seen. I really hope that’s not what he was going for, although I guess it makes more sense.
And Mark – swing late. You’ve got to hit the pengiun at fairly low angle to get him to skip. I can’t believe I’m giving advice on this thing!
heh…write a FAQ, Thom :p
And now I can’t get the page to load. This is unacceptable!
Yeah, the page wasn’t loading for me this morning, but it’s back! First question in the FAQ will be “Is that a polar bear or an abominable snowman?” The answer will be: “Abominable snowman – check out the rock. It says Reinhold (presumably the penguin) + Yeti.”
Well that answers that question…not like I was looking at anything but the bat and the penguin before :p
Thom, thanks for the advice, but I was already hitting around 550 a few minutes after I posted
for a penguin, he sure can take a hit without splattering.
Hi, my current high score is 593,5
Hi guys. “Reinhold” is not the penguin. There’s a German climber who claims to have seen Yeti in the Himalaya mountains. Check his website.
Concerning the game: C ‘mon and post your highscores on the “Smack-The-Penguin Highscore List” on http://www.sprain.ch/penguin.
593.5 here as well…it’s too bad I didn’t take a screenshot! Since then, I’ve gotten 587.6
Awesome, I’ve since added my high score of 593.5 (achieved the morning I read these comments) to the list!
i posted 593.5 last week 5 times, not sure if it’s possible to get a higher score. my coworker who also got that score can attest to this finding after wasting 3 hours of valuable work time trying to beat it.
I did over 700 today on the smack the penguin game, and i dont talk about it without proof,
so there goes a link of the screen picture i took of the game! it took me a WHILE but it
is not impossible.

593.5 here, too. 3 of us. BUT, I’ve gotten the game on various sites that
only shoot for about 300 – what’s that all about?
Well Jamal, I’ll have to take your word (and screenshot) for it, since I doubt I’m breaking 700 anytime soon. You should definitely go to the high score page and post, although I’ve seen a rash of 3000+ scores on that board. I’m wondering if there’s another version out there since some of them are similar scores. Check that, I’ve just found another modified version on which I scored over 1200.
Chris, I don’t know the story behind this game (and God knows how my posting is currently in the top ten Google search results for this). My guess is that the 300 one is the original, since the distance markings only go up to 300 on both. Someone else must have modified it to go further, and now people are modifying it more to break 1000 or even 3000.
I might just have to do some real investigative reporting hear to find out the true story. (Yet another one getting me close to 2000)
I smacked a 3,495.9 on the “yet another one getting me close to 2000″ link.
here’s a 3622.3 bomb deep to center field!!!
he just kept on goin…. just got 6656.7!!
Try this modified version of smack the penguin….

score 593 screen shot http://www.bindesign.com/booya.gif
using the one at http://meph.eu.org/
i can’t play any of the games but the oldest one, can anyone post the other websites so i can get to them please?
593.5 is the highest score in one shot attainable on that version. 323 is highest attainable on other version. Don’t know what others are talking about reaching 1000 or more unless they are playing 5 shots and adding together.
I got 1134, no joke. How do you do a screen shot, i just printed the screen out. I hope peeps believe me.
I got 1134, so, you can get higher then 1000. Sorry BESTPLAYER.
Hey I got a 1208!!!! But now the page is not loading again!
yea belive it or not i got 593.5 after 2 stright hours of playing
you guys are pussies…………i easily got 1300
god damned queers
