Rules

  • 1: Competitions last two weeks, close on Sunday night @ midnight.
  • 2: Post screenshots in the appropriate thread as proof.
  • 3: The winner from the previous week chooses the next game to play.
  • 4: You cannot choose twice in a row. 2nd place will choose if someone wins two weeks in a row.
  • 5: If there’s a tie, the person that submitted the high score first gets to choose.
  • 6: Games must be high score compatible (think “arcade style scores” like Pac-Man, or Spy Hunter, not Super Mario).
  • 7: Emulation is okay (MaME is often the best for high scores).
  • 8: No save state manipulation (pausing to take a break is fine though).
  • 9: No score scumming, you must play the game normally
  • 10: Using a gamepad or joystick with turbo is allowed.
  • 11: Submit scores as soon as you get them! To keep the competition rolling and fair, do not hold on until the last moment to submit.
