Look at the top 5 from 2016, one of the most competitive years in the history of the contests. Fourth place is around that.  https://archive.nes.science/nintendoage-forums/nintendoage.com/forum/messageviewd7f2.html?catid=31&threadid=159557

 

Your score will likely podium.

 

I’ve got to have the most podiums with the least amount of wins…

I'd be thrilled if that happened, but I probably have more work to do to have a solid shot at the top 3.

I think it's been stated at least once before in recent history, but it would be really interesting to see all the stats over the years tallied, organized and laid out; presuming all the info is recoverable..

That's it? I remembered that thing. Then there's the pinwheel and the other spots to get the upgrades I kind of remember those. But...

Once it turns into a “gas tank” it stops circulating. The “pinwheel” is pretty historic. Capcom.

I think I might actually be capable of channeling enough obsessiveness to go through all this + the Sage Years...

There was a thread about keeping the records archive going, but it kind of fell off. It would be great if someone combined the old NA stats with the VGS ones. I might be in the top 3 on the all time wins list by now.

Bea used math to conquer the game. The rest of us didn't. My second place score actually took a ton of effort.

 

I saw the early posts about how tough it was for players to even hit participation. I'm terrible at math, so I'm sure my score would have been awful even though I'm fairly decent at real pool.

I wish I had the time. I also don't own a computer or have any idea how to make spreadsheets, which would reduce me to trying to figure everything up myself. If you saw the grades I used to get in math when I was in school, you would quickly identify me as the least qualified person to try and take that project over.
