NESfiend | 1,564 Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 I started practicing some last night. Lucky for me, I am terrible at adventure island, but I have always loved the game. Accordingly, I have played level 1 a LOT. This is a great ruleset Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeaIank | 1,694 Events Team · Posted September 3 Author Share Posted September 3 I'd rather send you guys to world 4-1 if there were passwords as there is where things get interesting. This game is too long and too challenging for a full playthrough ruleset these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 12,284 Administrator · Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Quick run to set the bar nice and low. I apologize for the position of the score, I need to remember how to get into the settings on my TV. 54,810 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like we only had about 8 regulars last year and half of them fell off the face of the earth this season. It's kind of disappointing to only see 4 or 5 scores every week, but I think old age had caught up with me and @docile tapeworm. I've been playing since the 2012 season and I just dont have the energy to give a 100% effort every week like I used to. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, I'm from Cincinnati where we say that about our sports teams every year and nothing happens. I'm grateful for that tradition this year. Over 30% of the people in my survivor pool were eliminated week 1 because everyone had cinci over NE. They were the biggest week 1 favorite. I knew better. Also, there is a middle ground between going hard every week and throwing up a score here and there for titles you are already familiar with and like. Like adventure island!
