Some nice scores too. https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/1101-vgs-weekly-contest-tournament-round-1-popeye/ I think I've figured enough out to get a middle of the road score, but I have no idea how players are getting those 90k+ scores. I'd feel accomplished if I can break 70k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,913 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) First try and didn’t get past the first stage, but I’ll try to find time for this tonight for a better score. Score: 14,570 Edited May 20, 2023 by RH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to legend it's the circuit board of the only known prototype for an unreleased, never-before-seen Mario/Zelda hybrid game of such great quality the execs at Nintendo determined it could never be released or their customer base would all die of ecstatic chronic happiness. Can you believe that bastard of a boar snuck into my home and tried to steal it? So I sicced the Abobo Bros. on him and they WRASTLED him into submission! In actuality I strongly suspect that it is a copy of "Fester's Quest" that will 100% guaranteed NEVER work EVER again. And so it became a permanent display piece. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably going to take 90k+ to make the top 3 this week. I don't know if I have that in me. I'd probably be satisfied with something over 75k+.

SuperJimtendo | 1,123 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 @PII @Murray You fellers are welcome for the prizes. PII looks like you have quite the collection. I've got a few more prize packages planned for this year which will include a sign of some sort in each of them. Maybe a cart or two. Also planning a big grand prize for the champion and for first place overall. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat-Doug | 5,105 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I almost hit 73k, so I might give myself the rest of the week off. I don't know if I have another Ice Hockey week long effort in me to maybe get another 5k points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
