BeaIank | 1,650 Events Team · Posted December 16, 2023 Author Share Posted December 16, 2023 Final standings posted. With this result, @BlackVega is our 2023 VGS NES WEEKLY CONTEST TOURNAMENT CHAMPION! @Dr. Morbis brings home the 2nd place. And @PII finishes 3rd. Congratulations for our top 3! We will be back in 2024 for more weekly contest action! * Note to self: never use Gold Metal Challenge 92 ever again. No one plays that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for reminding me the name, it was storage wars. I found the clip in question but I misspoke a bit, it went "you know what I will let it go for 5000 dollars....... or 5 dollars!!" And the old classic I still watch tv. I watch the local news almost every morning and I keep the tv on while I’m gone to keep Mr. Pickles occupied.

mbd39 | 2,039 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I'm happy with my Rolling Thunder score. I couldn't have done any better because I sure as hell wasn't going to beat that game. I do wish I'd tried harder at the other games because I could have taken third place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackVega | 583 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 It's great to finally see the end results and the end of this tournament but there's tons of discrepancies. I think top 3 people are in the correct spots but I don't have a clue what happened to other peoples scores. For instance only top 3 people participated in Capcom and NESfiend didn't participate this round at all which is unfortunate so I don't know why he got points and his counter should stay at 6 from the 2nd round. This probably doesn't affect the top 3 places on the leaderboard but it is important to nail down who got the last place here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeaIank | 1,650 Events Team · Posted December 16, 2023 Author Share Posted December 16, 2023 Since they all finished last in Gold Medal Challenge Challenge 92, I summed the points for last 5 spots, divided it by 5 and rounded down. So every one of them was awarded 2 points at Gold Medal Challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperJimtendo | 1,180 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 @mbd39 and I have tied before on numerous occasions. That entertains me greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbd39 | 2,039 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I'm not too keen on multiple events sports games where you have to take a bunch of pictures. I probably would've played anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably would've played anything else. Multiple pics can be a bit bothersome, particularly when one is strapped for space but those kind of sport games are always fun in my opinion. Plus it gives everyone a chance to earn points for each separate event so if you're not too hot in a given category you can always focus on another.

I didn’t want to skip the tournament this year but looking back I have had zero time to play games so it was for the best. I guess I'll have to wait and see what the schedule looks like for next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperJimtendo | 1,180 Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 2017 was my best year! Not only was that the year that Kickle was turned into nightmare fuel, I had Two 3rd place finishes! Snoopy and Felix. If it wasn't for Bea and Tables having a blood feud at the top I could have made something of myself! Not really. I did have second place in 2016 during adventure island 2 though.
