    I'm going to have to invalidate your first score since you did not include the phase number in the picture like the rules stated.  If you submit another score tonight, please make sure to take your picture just as you lose your last life.  There's time to pause the game to take a picture during Mario's death animation.  Sorry this is so last minute, but I have been super busy all week and haven't had time for NA until tonight.



    Oh.



    Well, I was only kidding as I'm not sure if I will actually get home with time to play. I've had a score saved all week, knowing I'd be gone this weekend. I checked the rules I think while I was at PRGE and then just went with it, not really checking back in. Here's what I got, you do what you gotta do. 



    Here's my score, with my first death to see where I would've stood in Tier 1. I died I think on Phase 39, or somewhere in there.



    299,370

    Your 150,730 score is fine since it has the phase number in there.  Unfortunately, the second one won't count since it was taken after Game Over.

    Ha, where's Toxie? Someone needs to tell him to post a score.



    Midget Tom Green is holding his score until the last minute! My guess is he's got a score just a bit higher than mine!

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Let it count so Barrels only have to score 20K more and I will be out! D:

    I have ran out of competitive steam and don't want to make to the next round!  



     
  • Score Updated, last run i can muster today! Page 2
  • Hell yeah, I'm making it to round 2!

    Da fuck!!!!



     
  • I doubt I will have any such luck in the next round. This is gonna be tough.
  • This was a crazy first round. I'm so glad I don't have to play this game anymore. Consistently falling short of my pitiful high score was really starting to consume me.
  • Dammit! I have a score that would have bumped me past Krunch! Damn you Toxie!

    The 2016 contest icons are on the awards list already, so I guess that they're done.

    I see.  Wonder if they're still doing leaderboard ones

    Where is this "awards list"? 

     
  • Poor Toxie must have been busy or he just plain forgot again. Oh well.



    Time to practice Palamedes.

    Toxie should be DQ'D due to the fact he didn't post a pic of him rolling around drunk in a pile of Kraft dinner!
  • Wow, good thing I posted my second run of Mario Bros. I was originally just going to sit on my 200k score, and that would've bumped me out.
  • Guys I simply did not have any time at all.......I just figured out even after the Tournament started that I had 2-3 days to get moved into my new place.



    Because of this I also did not have any internet hooked up at all either....Wish it was better circumstances but it kind of fucked me over completely.



    I apologise for saying I was going to participate because I had full intentions on doing so but life happened unfortunately.



    Congrats to everyone.

    Sorry to hear that man.  Darn life getting in the way of the end of year tournament.  Doesn't it know you have other priorities?!?  Thanks for the well wishes and I'm sure you made mbd happy!

    All year to get knocked out by a rule change in the semi-finals. I feel like Vince at the NWC last year.

    If you click on one of the icons under your name it should bring up the list of all of the icons.

    Yeah, but Vince getting screwed over (as I did too), was actually a good thing in my eyes.  That "competition" was a joke last year!

     
  • Maybe I should have competed as my "just messing around" score would have been good enough!

    Holy Cow man , I had that 2600 version as a kid and played it a ton. that was a decent port for the time

    It really is one of the better ports on the system.

    Thanks you for not competing. I barely squeaked by because you declined and Toxie was too busy.
