    What is your high score?

    Yes, that's cool. I mean..I can spin two powerballs at the same time (and my record is over 26800rpm at this time) but I have to start both powerballs individuallly.

    A not very good 13,622

    I managed it once the other day. Really struggle with my left hand though. In fact, the ONLY time I've one-handed started it with my left was at the same time as doing it with my right. I guess mirroring the motion with my right hand helped. It's just the thumb-flick I can't do very well with my left.

    Ok now explain this to me. I've seen several people that say they have these insanely high scores like 26800. What on earth are you basing this on? My highest is 14089 and I thought I was gonna puke and Akis has 16200. Where in the hang is 26K coming from? Please any of you guys...explain this one to me.

    26800 with both hands at the same time. Like 13400 with one hand and 13400 with another.

    Oh that's just insane...impressive, but insane. I guess next we'll be registering high scores for duels?! There would be no way on earth to prove it except for a video and AKIS would crush us all anyway. Maybe we should do a high score for rotating it between your feet.
