Congratulations to all our contest entrants, those who “placed” as well as the hundreds of runner ups. Hey, I helped beta test Apeiron and am too ashamed to admit my paltry score in public. As soon as the score passed one million I gave up all hope and hung up my mouse.

Here is the list of the top fifty-one winners. All of these folks will receive a free Ambrosia Software Apeiron T-shirt. If you see someone wearing a shirt with Cheech the pentipede on front, bow down and acknowledge their greatness, for truly they are among the great mouse manipulators.

Ambrosia plans to have a Swoop high score contest in the near future. Those little Swoopers can be tough, it might be a good idea to start practicing now. Stay tuned in to future issues of The Ambrosia Times for details.
