So, we have had the online highscore list going on in DPAQ from the start. Already there are people from all over the world: from over 15 countries in Europe, North-America, South-America and Africa. Check out the situation from the game (global highscores) or from the highscores-website.
Milan from Germany leads with amazing 2848 points. Also Weissheim from Great Britain and Ulf from Germany have managed to reach 2500 points, which is truly a top score. Nine other players have topped 2000 points; vmfireball from Hungary, Akis from Greece, Soren Mogensen from Denmark, Solitair from Germany, Ciouo from Sweden, jeppe from Denmark, speed king from Norway, nikow from Finland and LordHypnos from The Netherlands.
Generally, over 2000 points seem to require 27 correct answers from the 30 available. However, vmfireball managed to get over 2k with only 25 correct, which is because he or she was able to click on the correct answer so fast. Also Ciouo did an excellent 2300 points with just 26 correct - very fast answering! At the same time Akis had to settle for 2227 points, even though he/she answered 29/30 correct. You may think this is unfair, but it really isn't. Everyone can use e.g. Google or their own record collection to check out the correct answers and in this way, secure 30/30. But the game doesn't reward the player from this activity! You actually need to know the answers when the game asks the questions, and when you know them, you can also answer fast and get more points. Of course checking Google is allowed and one can learn things, and then try to achieve a better score next time - this is even recommended. Listen more DP music, learn all kind of information about it, get a better score in the game - simple! But not during one game: you don't have time to find out the facts, you must already know them. Thus, this quiz measures DP-knowledge - not internet browsing capabilities like many other general quizzes.
There is still much room in the list, so go and put your name up there if you still haven't. The game shows the top-100, but the website (link above) has rooms for thousands of players.
