Higgidy Catch A Quiche

Just received the weekly email saying who has won the picnic packs and wondered what sort of scores fellow MSErs have been recording?

My best effort was just over 400, which I thought was amazingly good (usually get between 200 and 300), but still not high enough to win. :(

    I just got the email as well and also didn't win even though I thought my score of 431 was pretty high!
    I have asked on their page what the high scorers are getting each week to win the picnic prizes.

    Got my best ever score of 366 today.


    I'm glad the OP started this thread, just so I could get some idea of what score to aim for

    Well Done OP btw :)

    p.s how do you folks play the game though? do you avoid the sarnies, etc, or do you just catch every single thing and hope you get a good score??

    Well I got a rather vague answer to my question on their fb page!
    It said....

    'Unfortunately I don't know the individual scores, however 400 points isn't far off!'

    I'm starting to think they're not picking people based on their scores if they don't even know what they are!

    I'm far too slow. my best was 240 and that was a fluke.

    I've been wondering this, too - my best is about 330, which is obviously nowhere near good enough! I find it does need a fast internet connection: it works fine on my work PC, where we have a fibreoptic internet connection, but it runs so slowly on my home PC that I struggle to get over about 200.
    Back after a very long break!

    I must be going at a snails pace then because I rarely get over 100 :eek:

    I did win a voucher for a small quiche though ;)

  • I usually only get around 300 points, so I guess I have little chance of winning the big prizes. However, I have won a voucher for a mini quiche & one for a bag of pop chips, which I was quite happy about :)
