Well, there is always room for one more.   :rofl1:

Its mostly about shaking the coffins and catching the ghosts.  I know that doesn't help.

You need a partner on the other team who will shake them with you and be prepared to catch as well.

The idea is to not worry about them "cleaning you."  It actually helps if each person does.  It allows you more time to catch.

There are some rooms that are better than others.

I would suggest finding people such as Purpleduck, Happy, Gas, Astro and Ant who play this way. It will give you an idea of how to go about the whole thing.

Hope that helps.

It seems like the Mansion has been extra friendly "giving up the ghost" lately.  That certainly helps.

Yes, as Bright suggests, I would be happy to show you.  I learned from the master himself, Gas.

Although Bright, similar to his apprenticeship under Grumpy (to become the "little gnome") has also learned this ghost catching technique well.  (Wow, THAT was tough to admit about :idea: !  You better save this one Lite Brite, cause I don't think it will happen again!) :lolg:

Here is my high score. That was me against me.  :woot:

I believe this was the game where Bright had 90 in one round.

Sadly, I have tried this many times before and every time I do I crash.  I can't figure out why it works for everyone else, but not me.  :(  It would of helped me sooooo much at Christmas time.  :cry:

If I can get my baby to kick her ear infection and let me get on the computer (poor kid :( ) I'd love to play.
I think I understand what the master says tho.  Boot to the head!!!  hehe  :lolg:  thanks FilamentTheBright :)

I couldn't either Bright, so he and I have been PMing about it, I think he is going to try what I use.  So it shouldn't be too long until we see his pics ;)

Glad to hear you say it too, I wasn't sure if I was the only one not seeing them :hug:

You would also have to add a big "shout out" to Happy as well.
