Seven 9s and 10s

High-res via: FlightControlled.com
So, perhaps I’m just a cynic, but I can’t believe that those high-scores are real.
It took me about 30 minutes to run up 222 landings so we can assume an average of 444 for 1 hour.
3588 / 444 = 8.08 HOURS.
That’s insane.  This game has no save function. You can pause it, and you can turn off the screen with the power button, but if you hit the home button, you lose your pause and start from scratch. It just seems entirely impossible to me that someone could go (at least) 8 hours without hitting the home button, even accidentally.  Not to mention being able to land that many planes. TWICE.
Judging by some of the comments/discussion from one of those high-scores, people seem to believe these are real.  I just can’t let myself believe it.
What do you think?

Yes I know, you’re all sick of seeing these, but goddammit I’m proud of myself.
One of my weekend goals was to crack 100 and I did it.  Yay me.  Clearly, I set lofty goals for my weekends.
Others:
Buy new shoes - DONE (Merrell Chameleon Hex)
Watch my Hulu queue - DONE (Exhausting!)
Seafoam my engine - DONE (Smoothed out my idle and acceleration)
Feel better - SORTA DONE - (Throat feels better, but the Clindamycin is giving me heartburn so I’ve stopped taking it as a precaution.)
Read the pile of old magazines sitting on my floor - DONE
Find a house I want and can afford to buy - NOT YET
Spend some quality time with all my make believe internet friends - DONE (I love you.)
