    I tried explaining in the Daily Dare 2018 has begun! topic, but I'll try explaining with pictures for the visual orientated people.
    After the bumped hill with the big spike (first frame of the picture) the 3 trees will ALWAYS show up . This game has patterns in the obstacles! So you can learn the best way to jump in every spot. For the 3 trees there are 2 ways to clear it:
    1: Jump right before the baby tree and jump over all 3 stumps. Picture shows the hill just before the 3 trees will show up, and the second frame shows where I jumped. I did make it over all 3 stumps. (It was hard making a screenshot at the right time whitout messing up.  I clicked my up arrow and my print screen button at the same time, or I tried to anyway. It's the hardest spot in the game for me too, just so you know. lol)
    2. Do a double jump, one before the root of the baby tree, and a second jump on the big stump:

    Took three screenshots, the first one is where I hit my up arrow, but the finger on printscreen was like a milisecond earlier. In the second (I was just too late clicking print screen) it's like a fraction of a second after jumping. On the third picture (I was late again hitting print screen) I showed in color where I landed and jumped again. You basically jump twice really rapid after each other.
    If I knew how to record and edit I would have done that, but I don't have time to figure that out right now, so the pics will have to do for now. I hope it will help you if you're still trying to get your scores.
     
    Edit: Oh! I almost forgot: If you jump just too soon to get over all three, but too late to do the double jump on the big stump, don't do nothing, there is a chance that if you jump in between the big and second baby tree, you'll clear it too and you can keep on going. I've never tried with a double jump between the first baby stump and the big one, so not sure if that would work or not.

    Er . . .I KNOW how, but my means to explain are, well . . . ? it took me a long time to figure it out myself as you can only go one way. Urgh, I really can't find the words, lol.
    RIGHT! This image from the JN guide should/might help!

    That pattern of blue tiles, that's the shape you need for a group of 6. It can be any orientation, but it needs to be that shape because the blocks turn clock-wise, have the long bit at the other end and you'll only match up 4.
    It took me quite a while to be able to "see" the shape no matter what the orientation was, but I got there in the end so you'll definitely be able to figure it out.

    Also, today's prize from Lulu makes my Kacheek look like an old hippy, so perfect for his boho pad.

    EDIT
    Oh dear, the glasses have inspired me, not really in a good way either. A quick trawl through the NP options on DTI threw up a shirt and sweater combo that I'd NEVER have considered before, but if we're channeling a 70s vibe here . . .

    Check out that collar and cuffs! Something that size can only be from a particular decade!  I just hope the shirt's not nylon!

    Thanks for the encouragement, @Scoobert_Doo! It came at just the perfect time--I scored 963! I think I've been blessed by Fyora. The AAA day-of-release streak continues!

    If you made it through Meerca Chase II, Super Hasee Bounce, and Zurroball, I know you can "meet/beat" AAA on this one, too. Try not to focus on the rolling Turmac, but on the terrain ahead. This game is a lot of luck, but I know you can do it!

    Thank you! That was just playing on DTI to see how the flower tubs looked, his actual customisation is this. I wanted to create a plant-filled boho Parisian apartment and I think I succeeded.

    The new flowers remove the pillars though, and I'm really pleased with the depth those give the room so he's not getting any new flowers right now, lol. The background is an NC item, the magnificent entry way, part of the MME23

    It was gifted to me by the lovely @kayahtik , because TDNers are awesome!!
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    I managed nearly 500 on my first try with this game today, but only from getting an unguberry early on, never got over 200 in subsequent attempts so I called it quits before I got annoyed, lol.

    Oh my, the mixed feelings here . . . I like this game though I'm not particularly good at it, it's one where Abigail's score is super easy to beat, but AAA's, well . . .

    Yeah. High score is only from luck with a few high value berries. Also, the up and down arrow keys on this new laptop are tiddly - two half-keys in the space for one - so I think it's gonna be Abi all the way for me! Though this is the first day I'll be competing since Kou-Jong so anything is better than nothing, right?
    As an aside, Lulu's item today is lovely!

    OH!!! and they're BIG too, not puny and pointless like so many lower foreground items!

    Interesting that the orange flowers are pink in the DTI preview! ?

    Hopefully the new system isn't reading this and thinking "wanna bet?! ".

    I'm ambivalent about this news, a new system doesn't mean a new attitude from the people dealing with the submitted tickets. *shoves Rico down a hole*

    I felt similarly. I went into Level 9 with about 2700 points, and didn't see how I was going to get almost 2000 more within the last two levels. But lo and behold, I ended with 5100 somehow. The scoring in this game is really weird, but I think if you can just follow the guide (although the rotations are REALLY confusing!) you'll be ok.

    While I enjoy this game, it's always a bit of a surprise what your final score will turn out to be, because of the randomness of the multipliers. I played a few games that went well, but didn't reach AAA's score; then I played another game - which seemed no different from the others - and got over 5300. (My previous high score was around 4600.)

    It's a red-purple-ish gem thing that appears (without having to do anything) in the center of the 2nd level after a while.
    Good luck! (Before I tried this, my highest score was 166k and I was literally already typing a post about giving up an going for Abi. So there's still hope! :D)

    abigail is supposedly a little fitter so she runs a little faster, but since she can only get 800 points max per level, you'll have to still play a little bit of level 4 which is where the real challenge starts IMO
    AAA can get 1000 points each level so if you get past level 3 you're good. As duma mentioned, in level 1 use the shovel when you're at the block BEFORE the one that needs to be discarded, if you time it just right, it won't even slow you down. Same with the jumps, jump at the right time so you don't hit your head against the one above. There's no reason to be slowed down at all in level 1 
    for level two, again as duma suggested use the bubble thing when you're going through mud, that way you won't slow down. 
    For level three, I personally don't see the need to use the shovel, or the bubble. you can jump over two blocks with a normal jump, which I think is faster than the spring. If you have to jump over three blocks use the spring. I personally jumped off blocks as well, sometimes hopping from one high stack to an other, which saved me time as well. 
    at level four you should have a bit of a head start over the baddie, so it's better to wait a little bit for an overhead ice cream to pass than to lose a life. it also becomes obvious in level 4 that you can't use two power ups at once ( at least I couldn't manage it ) so think it through and don't panic, feel free to take a bit of time. 
    It becomes complicated because you have to use bubble, spring, hat and shield in level four, so playing with AAA is probably better because honestly, level 4 is where the challenge starts.

    I had better luck with Abigail, but others alternate each time so I don't think it really matters. I tried Abigail after a few runs with AAA and did better with her so decided to just stick with her.

    @Scoobert_Doo I double-checked, and it was actually level 6 where I kept getting stuck 
    But I did finally get the score just now! (At just past 2am...got home late from a party and decided to give it another go before the end of the Neo day. I'm glad I did! Now my streak of gold checkmarks remains intact.) It turns out that the levels get WAY easier after that pesky level 6. On level 10 you get 250 points from one single item! Once I got that far, I realized I can totally conquer this game. I played through level 16 to get AAA's score, and finally finished with 892. Bring on day 11!

    This just reminded me that last year when Garet went on vacation for a week or two, I followed Lefty instead (/~Innocent). She has a similar risk factor to Garet, although I think overall her wins are slightly less. But she would be my second recommendation. 
    EDIT: @Duma I found the page I was talking about! /~Yehoodi compares the returns of four different bettors, so you can see how they stack up against each other ^^
