    Welcome to the club, kiddo.

    I too enjoy sharing the little I know about the few games I am half decent at.

    I usually share stuff,so you are not alone. My rationale is,here is what I know and do....try and beat me with it. To me it's more satisfying when do you this and win anyway.

    I am not even sure that will make top 5.

    But alas, I do need a drink or 5 now to clear the sour taste from my mouth.







    Is it often that people just don't post scores until the last minute? Lol I thought I was doing pretty OK! D;



    Skinny is known for last second updates, for one.

    And unlike me, he is good at videogames, so I am sure he will beat that score by far.

    And then there is bearcat-doug who will likely post a score tomorrow.

    Pretty sure a meagre 3 million won't cut it, but alas.

     



    If there's anything that will bring me out of retirement, it would be if that rdrunner guy wants to head to head one more time. Maybe there's a contest during the week of 3/12-3/19 that would make for one last epic main event showdown...

    Well then, let's take butts and kick numbers and make it happen then!

    Rdrunner, the challenge was presented! Make your presence known!

    I figured I'd throw that out before the Santa News Update. I'm sure the new guys would want to see the legend vs the icon one last time.

     
  • So I made it to the ultimate race in Marble Madness with 99 seconds, died once on the last section, and I _still_ beat the game with a score of 162k. I shudder to think what my score would have been had I not messed up. I'm not practicing MM any more until tomorrow. The game is literally painful to play after awhile. I'm almost afraid of hurting my thumb.

    Maybe he saw how that Bearcat/Bimmy Double Dragon II Challenge turned out.  



     
  • Well, I hope he shows up and takes the challenge!

    I want to see more impressive video game skills in action!
  • Ok, my attempt on Gradius ended woefully short, and I don't like seeing a score higher than my own, so...



    Back at it I go.



    This is going to be the death of me, I stayed up until 5am last night! D;

    That's how I got the 2nd place icon in 2013. He used to have the TG high score record for Life Force and I think he beat my score four times over. If I'm going to issue open challenges, I'd like to actually have a shot at winning!



     
  • Well, luckily for you, no-deathing Mario 3 is so easy even I could do it!
  • This is probably the most entertaining contest thread since Double Dragon or Battletoads last year.

    I dropped 164,530 on Bimmy in our head to head challenge (link below), so I'm sure my old rival could give me all I could handle one more time if he's up to it.

    Well, someone had to give the new kid a bit of a headache.

    It fell to me to do that, even though I am pretty terrible at this.  

    Still, I am pretty amused that I screwed up so badly yesterday, making me beat this game at both 1% and 1000% participation point threshold at the same contest.

    Yeah... so much you beat me to third place at the platformer genre last year and ended up far ahead in the final standing for the contest tournament.

    I didn't even made to tier 1! You're clear the best video game player between the two of us!

    I put my obligatory hour-and-a-half into this game and died in the stupidest way possible on 2-3. I'm going to go watch some more basketball.



  • Looks like a throwdown for the ages on life force week. Although I'm still looking forward to throwing down next week too!

    3/12-3/19 is Double Dragon II week! Even I'm not crazy enough to challenge Tom at Life Force!!
  • I forgot a big one

    I put out the challenge for Double Dragon II week. Tom would crush me at Life Force. We were fairly evenly matched when it came to beat em ups.
  • Oh... right, Tablew! D:

    I forgot about him. Skinny WILL have competition for the 1st place after all.

    I am sure Tablew will post a score over 4 million!

    Well this is what happens when I don't check what it actually is  

    Haha, either way this whole season is shaping up to be pretty good!



     
  • Accidentally used the warp whistle I collected on World 2 so I had to do world 5. Cracked a million so I should be good for this week.

    Final score: 1092970
