Yeti / Penguin…. Explained.
The original Version: Yeti Sports: Can download it, play it online, enter your name, register your high score, among other things. Here’s the main site. Even has desktop wallpaper.Goes a little above 320.
Slightly Modified Version: Penguin goes far, but not that far–about 539.5. Still within the “realistic” zone.
The “Parphenos” Version: Couldn’t find a working link for it, but it goes over 1000. Modifier uses a bit more creativity by adding more signposts.
Absurdly Far Version: Again, no working link, but whacks go well into the 3000 range. The only version in which it’s apparently better to hit a nose dive than a skid.
“Rocket Up the Arse” Version: Apparently it’s what Whack the Penguin would be like on the moon. Hits take about 2 minutes each and run around the 8,000 range.
The Blood and Guts and Landmines Version: It’s definitely the version not to play if you have a weak stomach. The Yeti now has a massive club, which shreds the penguins into small bits. But the head flies on! And if you land on a landmine, the head goes even farther.
Yeti sports also released a new game where the yeti throws a snowball at a penguin that was flipped in the air by an orca…. the penguin then flies into a target on the wall head first and sticks there. Check it out here.

So evidently you found the same website I did documenting all the different versions. Not surprising, since it’s one of the first links from a Google search.
Very amusing game. I just listened to that cd the other day while driving home from N.C. – older BNL is much better than the newer in my opinion.
And the guy with the “thought bubble” looks an awful lot like Russel Crowe…
heh heh…. that guy with the thought bubble is me….. and I’ve been told that before oddly enough…. that I looked like russle crow in Gladiator…. But I think it’s a rarity…. I don’t always resemble anything remotely close to him… but every once in awhile, I pull off some look that reminds people of him.
SWEET!! This is fun!
I could only get the penguins to 680.3 or something….this is very cool!!
I’ll give you the list tomorrow!
Hey Brent, because I’ll never remember to tell you later… I use Quark Express 6.0. Oh and “It’ll take more than deadly, deadly bees to scare us.”
