GENERAL CONTEST RULES

-Contest is open to all members of Video Game Sage.

- In order to submit a score for the contest, take a picture of your score with your Video Game Sage user name written or typed on a piece of paper, which must be present in the picture. Your Video Game Sage user name MUST be in the picture or the score will be invalid.  The entire Game Boy or TV screen MUST be in the picture for the score to be valid.

- Previously obtained scores are not acceptable as submissions.  You must play the game during the week it has been selected.

- When posting a new score, please begin your post by typing out your score.  Larger font (18pt) is preferred.

- If you are posting an updated score, please create a new post with your new score and delete the picture from your previous post with the old score.  You may also edit your initial post with the new photo and score.

- It is highly encouraged to play with original software on original hardware, if possible.

- This is a contest of skill, so using any sort of device or feature that would give you an advantage over another player is prohibited.  Examples include, but not limited to, cheat devices, save states, altered ROMs, remapped controllers, and turbo functions.  The use of glitches to alter your score is also not allowed.  Any other glitches will be examined on a case-by-case basis to determine whether or not they will be permitted.  Any glitches discovered by participants must be reported and approved for use before submitting a score using them.

-Although not required, I would encourage participants not to practice a game in advance.

You expect me to play games from my (near) complete set?

 Ok.

Seriously, though, I'll see what I can do.  Do you have to beat these titles, or just show your best scores, cause I suck at games.

Nope, you won't have to beat any of them to participate.

I'm in. SML will be interesting because you can easily cheese your way to 999999 points. Is it a low-score contest?

High score, but I have a rule set that will prevent that from being a problem.

Indeed, thanks for introducing me to some neat GB games! I wish I'd had more time to be a bit more competitive, but I was already pretty far out of my league here. It was just fun to participate, and I appreciate all the effort that goes into coordinating and maintaining one of these competitions.
