I… I didn’t even know this existed before now. I have no frame of reference to know if this is impressive but I’ll assume it is 😅

[@falkush]

I've been grinding this minigame with friends once in a while during the last two years. Last year we got 28,850 points so we were still going for the 30k. In terms of gameplay difficulty, it's mostly about being precise with the angle of the lickitung's tongue. As you can see in this video, it's very easy to miss a few licks. In terms of the odds, getting at least nine uni-cha is a 1/7000 event. We also got lucky on the shrimp and tuna spawns, and we also got lucky on the green lickitung condition happening only three times. There's also the clutchness of QuébecYoshi getting that last uni-cha. There's a leaderboard on cyberscores, but it's 1 player vs CPU only, so in my opinion it's not fair to compare.

i've always wondered what was the highest possible score in this minigame if someone TASed for perfect movement, cooperation and luck manipulation between the 4 lickitungs

[@falkush]

That would be an amazing TAS indeed. I think the only thing that can influence the RNG once the game begins is when a shrimp, a tuna, or an urchin is eaten, since then the RNG function is called to determine if the green effect happens. I am not entirely sure about that since I've only experimented a little bit with the TAS program. I did notice that the timing of when you eat a sushi didn't seem to change the sushi spawn sequence. But yeah, the search space could be quite large if you have many possible sushi sequences per initial RNG seed. For sure one day I'll put some work into this, and try to crowd-fund some supercomputer computation time 😆

420 Labatt 50, best score

[@iamwhoiam7887]

Any proof this wasn't hacked?

[@falkush]

It is possible to tell if a run is legit or not. Based on the sushi spawns at the beginning, you can get the RNG seed. Then, if the run is legit, it would be possible to reconstruct the run as a TaS. It would be quite involved, but for sure any fake run would get caught eventually.
