My score is 20. I reckon this is wrong. My 5 year old daughter with the help of her 3 year old sister can tackle me and have me giggling like a girl in 5 seconds flat.
If they are pushing their little baby brother in the pram, they are like an unstopable destruction machine. You get two choices, either run or end up with a serious pram injury ...

After the birthday party last weekend I reckon I'd need ear plugs if there were more than 5 of them. Plus they count double if someone's been feeding them sugar.

I get 55 but my gf only gets 33. Doesn't make sense, she's shorter than me but has a black belt in tae kwon do to mine in judo. I think I'd end up swinging the front one round to clear a path through the next 20, then going down in a heap. She's just stand there doing fast kicking until she had to step back to avoid the pile of cute little corpses.

Moz, when you said you got 55, I was going to call BS. No matter what options I ran through, changing them each time to "maximise" my kill score, the highest I could get was 39. (sorry, stay with me, Moz...)

However, looking at the source, most every question has a maximum value of five attached to it, and the total "value" you can accumulate is 64. So, I'm buggered why I'm maxing-out at 39, as I have answered each question by picking the maximum option. Perhaps there's some odd screwiness happening in the maths (between browsers?), something that might also explain the discrepancy between your score and your girldfriend's. Regardless, I'm going to have to apologise for my BS-calling temptation and say it's obviously worked out by very smart quantum cats, and bow to your superior child-control skills.

Incidentally, my "real" score was 17, but, as specified elsewhere, that doesn't take into account that all my blood liberated by the rabid 5 year olds was preinfected with Kata Tjuta Bunyip Fever. Those little buggers are going down.

Cheers,
Marc

Don't ask me, I just just ran through and answered. It's amusing that cheating appears to be difficult.

I still think a 5 foot tall horse-kicking ninja of doom should beat a judoka with testicles conveniently placed for 5-year-old headbutts (trust me on this, it hurts).

5 year olds are mean. They have 5 years of practice of inflicting pain upon adults (parents mostly, fathers more likely than mothers, as the latter are a food source at early stages).
Most of their moves are impossible to defend against.
My mortal fear is the 10 month old baby carried in one of those front strapped baby carrying pouches, with the baby facing forward. Now, for uninitiated in the dark arts of baby trickery, 10 month olds are of a very uncomfortable height because the little dangling feet are at just about the right height to deliver a painful back-kick into father's neither-region.
The only way to defend the crown jewels is the hold both hands in a form of a cup in front of the affected region. You can guess how many dirty looks this attracts from ladies when you go to the shops with the little one ...

That's what I thought. Probably programmed by super-intelligent 5 year olds.

Well, you know...ninjas. Nothing beats ninjas.

I'm also thinking there might be a few very jealous hetero men reading here about your loved one (and probably a few Sapphic flutters too)

Man, that...movie...would...be...AWESOME!

(*Warning: This film has been rated NP: It contains Ninja Pirates. Small children and namby pambies who probably thought "Attack of the Clones" needed more lovey-kissy crap should just bugger off and watch some film where Hugh Grant is being a foppish cad...again)

ah, petit scarabée, is ancient secret. must open first quote in new window, then click second quote in original window. then must accomplish secret "ctrl+x ctrl+v" ceremony of nested quote bringing togetherness. very delicate operation. not suitable for novice.

Rrrriiiiiiight! No worries. I'll keep that in mind if ever I'm talking about really, actually made movies that exist as opposed to the violently hyperchromatic composites in my own mind.

Well I got 25 of those rascals off the planet. And that's not counting those two others I used to carry by the back of the belt. They've stopped pilfering my house and have gone to syphon others now.
Nah! I'm happy to see them when they pass by... what a softie.
