Bjorn was an under cover police horse that was tasked with infiltrating this cult of peggle masters, but quickly became as entranced as we all are when it comes to peggle. Now, he never officially neglected his duties as a cop, and he is still clean from the cults more... immoral activities to this day, but after Bjorn started dying his mane + hooves on his days off and silently got the permanent horn surgery with tax payer money he was ordered to turn in his badge and gun, which he was all too happy to do as it meant he had more time to focus on his peggle fixation.

Now days he's pretty much seen as the face of the organization, luring in newer players so the other peggle masters can get their filthy hands, claws, talons and hooves on them. 2 under cover horses have gone missing in the line of duty after Bjorn publicly and loudly welcomed them as old allies. Some insist he knows exactly what he is responsible for, others assume he's just an idiot peggle savant.

this makes a lot of sense actually, especially taking into account some lines by him later into the adventure and also

Bounce it off the top right orange peg so it bounces onto the orange peg on the left.



maybe you meant the top left peg but that is an impossible shot and since I had the super guide I went with a orange peg on the left since you weren't overly specific! good on you, it was a nice shot!



the last suggestion when I next check the thread decides the next shot! One more turn of super guide to go!

Clear out that red peg in the upper left and try to get the ball near the other green peg using the super guide. Maybe you'll get it.

Green peg gives you several turns of super guide, or whatever skill the character you are playing with has

Aim at a completely random angle. I mean actually open up random.org or something and generate a number which you use as an angle to aim at.

As much as I like the idea of randomly generating an angle, where are we going to find a protractor? No, the best option must be

This shot was easier than I thought it would be, I was afraid I'd had to attempt some fancy ol' shootin'!

(i really want to try out the random angle generation thing in the future though)



We got our magic powers back, and plenty of balls/peggles left! Next shot will be decided by the one who draws the cutest spider in paint or something

Well, not much point in taking suggestions with only one orange peg left, right?



EXTREME FEVER

HOLY HELL that's a lot of green stuff, still pretty neat though!



Making good progress!



We finally get purple pegs! This is the where the game starts getting interesting, as we finally get the chance to make some really high scoring shots. We're also officially introduced to free balls!



New level, this is a fun one!

Okay, I'll suppose the suggestion that receives the most votes from the thread decides the next shot. I'm sure you'll manage to sort it out.

Bounce off the purple one towards one of the sides (your pick) such that the ball hopefully loses momentum in the top corner and slides down the big curves and scored a gazillion points.

Wow, goons reaching a consensus that is completely reasonable!? Peggle truly is a magical game!

(I switched to 256 colour gifs, which took care of the greenscreen problems for now. Tell me if you think it looks way too terrible!)

This was a sort of tricky shot as there was no way to bounce it all the way to the wall from the purple peg, and a 50-50 chance that the ball would unceremoniously bounce back into the middle of the board. Still, it's very hard to go wrong with the first shot on this level - which is one of the reasons I enjoy it :)

Also, sebzilla narrowly overtakes me as Peggle champion of the thread with 66720 points! :toot: It's amazing what does purple pegs can accomplish!



We have more balls than we started with, super guide and almost at the 2x multiplier already! Woo! Next shot will be decided by the poster who can give the best reason why Peggle is the best game!

peggle represents the eternal struggle between man's inhumanity towards man and his moral reasoning. Should we continue struggling to clear the board or go strictly for a fast win? is quantity of shot more important than quality of shot? When the free ball is hit, are we truly "free"? The mysteries of the universe lead on...

I want you to hit it onto the slope of the bricks on the right so that it rolls downwards and hits everything it can along the way. (below the green peg, don't need to waste that so soon!)

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Suppose Peggle were not the best game. Then you would not be LP-ing the best game; but since nobody woyld LP anything but the best game, this is a contradiction. Therefore Peggle is the best game.

Aim for the leftmost orange peg, with a longshot-bounce over to an orange on the right side of the field.

Okay the next shot is decided by the poster that provides the objectively funniest dog picture

also I'm still figuring out a good way to get a protractor on screen for the "random angle" shot idea, so hold off on suggesting that for now!
