Nope, I actually leave as many open as I can, I just quickly sweep them down to the bottom of the screen (where they can't do any harm), since it's much faster than trying to click the x. I still get automatic game over. It ticks me off insanely. Because if I didn't, I'd have a chance at the avatar.

515 is my max and now I have a nice hate towards Krawks. 
Not that I liked them much to begin with. That had to be the most annoying pop-up to the full screen sign-in image.
I don't see how people are fast enough to close the sign in pop-up when you make it to the 5th and going on rounds.

So far this is what I've found: Put it in full screen mode on high quality.
Advantages:
1: You can grab the tops of the ads that are in window form, and quickly drag them to the bottom of the screen, where they cannot be in the way. It's much faster than closing them. If you try to do this in a window, your mouse will go out of the window, and the ad will become stuck to your mouse, forcing you to click to detach it.
2: The animations play sl..... er... um... yeah.
3: It's easier to click on "Go"s that are partially sticking out from behind ads.
Disadvantages:
1: You have to move your mouse around a whole lot more.
2: I think that what causes it to auto fail might contribute to the fact of how many ads are open at the time. I think if you reach a certain number, the game says "there is no way this person can possibly keep playing, so I'll just end the game for them." It's only a theory though, so who knows.
I personally have yet to break the 430-something mark, so... But yeah, I hate the game.

I've broken the 570 mark partly by luck, and also kinda working like this:
1. Use low mode. Dunno why, but try it.
2. This one's rather crucial. Click the yellow "Go" buttons even before they fully form. That means that when you click one and another starts to form, you can already go and click the other one- don't wait. Makes your Zafara go a lot faster. You'll have to have quick eye-hand coordination for this one.
3. Close popups only when they're blocking your view of the Go button area. Don't bother if it's on the "racing" view.
4. When a popup appears, keep clicking the Go buttons, then only close it or move it (I prefer closing it) if it's blocking the next one.
5. Rely on sound. Sometimes if you hear the popup noise twice, it's mostly because you clicked the ad- which will usually duplicate it. Double click the X button to close both.

Gah...my trying both you guys tips, but I keep getting a combo of sign in, money tree then that stupid krawk image...by the time I close them to get to the Go button...I get game over. Always when I'm at 500 points.
Guess luck is not getting that sing in screen...it's the worse one cause you can't move it away like the rest.
The Neofriends one is bad cause it's close button is too close to the game window that you can sometime miss click and click on another window. For me, that's usually the Advent Attack play button. <_<
Also trying to close it takes longer then needed.
Why am I so intent in getting an avatar I'll never use?

xD
I did that the other day, also, I sometimes get so used to moving the mouse around and clicking quickly, that I end my game by sending the score early.

I must really suck, huh? I got 243 >_< I'm never going to get this avatar...
Sat Feb 05, 2005 8:03 am
The most I ever got was 455. So I guess I'm only 100 points away from the avatar, but it's the hardest 100 points ever.

*sighs* Just had some pop-up closing fun, got to 432. Still not good enough!
Sat Feb 05, 2005 2:26 pm
Blah. My high score is only 288. -_- This one is hard.
Sat Feb 05, 2005 2:48 pm
I'm not too bad at this game, but I normally close it quite early because otherwise I get bored. But I like the av. 
EDIT: 1st time, 307. I need a bit more practise, methinks
