YAY!
I realize this isn't a high score, but it IS a Patch Score, and TBH one I never thought I'd be able to get.
I started to get the feel for it, it's a really tough game, seems like it would take a lot of practice to get good.
Wanted to try to hit this first, was one of Garrett's earliest subs, mebbe even earliest, I actually think, so I wanted to try to pay homage to his super-awesome collection additions, still reeling over it!!!

Thanks Everyone!!!

And this time, in particular-
Thanks Garrett!!!

You earned the patch in your first sitting! FANTASTIC JOB! You're a quick learner! (btw, 500 eff'n pts is actually a good score for the first board LOL! ... you only get 10pts per jump and igloo block, 20 for 2nd board, 30 for 3rd board, etc.)

ACCEPTED!

Thanks!!!
I kinda noticed, the faster I tried to play the better I seemed to do, so I started trying to push the envelope pretty hard on the first couple levels.
Not even "not like", but I really didn't see the "fun" in this game before, but it is, it's just difficult.

Trying to decide if I want to get this real patch or eat food next week, not sure yet.
:D
(Kidding, still playing on a joke I heard at AA-collecting all the real patches would be nice, but living indoors is pretty important...).

That's not your friendly Coca Cola polar bear patrolling the top of the screen.... Congrats on a patch worth performance! On a side note... I either never knew or long forgotten that you could change the direction of the ice flow. Me thinks I need to give this another go on the PS2 compilation.
