Thats an avator I havent seen around in a long time and always liked reading his posts. Been a long while Thanks I'm gonna make a crap attempt at Alpha Mission. Would've done Spartan X but I didn't feel like farting around maxing the score with everyone else 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krunch | 303 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Wow so this is shaping up to be a 8 way tie probably? Traditionally points are split in full ties, the point sum of top 8 is 63, so are we looking at 8 pts for a max score? It seems oddly fair And what if more than 8 people max it, would you still split the 63 as evenly as possible among all winners? Cause still all technically 1st places. I'm over here, just starting for the week, lmao. I want to get in on this cheese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_wizard_666 | 1,325 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I dunno, I see everyone posting their lives in addition to the score. Maybe use the total remaining lives as a tie breaker? Although making that call at the last minute is kind of a dick move now that nobody'll be able to change their position. If nothing else, it's something to consider in future contests if this happens again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that would be pretty brutal. Cant blame anyone though. Who would have thought you could continue acquiring lives for points indefinitely. It was a fun game to checkout regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_wizard_666 | 1,325 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Yeah, I might've gave it a go if it hadn't already been point spammed to infinity. Maybe if it was the number of points in one life, then it'd be a fitting challenge. But then, that's the downside to trying new games - you have to figure out the rules as you go, as you can't forsee every eventuality in advance.

the_wizard_666 | 1,325 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Although maybe this could lead to making a tie-breaker for most games, so if there IS a max-out, there's an alternative to give out full points, and only split if the tie breaker is also tied? But again, this is more of an idea for the future, as this year's competition is already in progress. No sport or contest would change the rules mid-season, but they always look for ways to improve for the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would hope... ...and there has still been no tie-breaker posted in the official rules of the opening post as of this posting, with less than 24 hours to go in the weekly contest, so... world record for largest tie ever at #1 !!!!!!!!!

the_wizard_666 | 1,325 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Yeah, because you've slowly learned not to talk shit around me. Because I always find a way to blindside you Am I good at everything? No. Am I gonna win? Probably not, I'm just looking to play a few games. But I also don't take everything as a competition, so I love to rub it in when I do get one up on ya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnpoly | 198 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) 157,410 Not sure how you are supposed to get through this part without dying but whatever. I also figured out along the way how to max out the score, seems like everyone is doing that. Not me! One and done.

If you can beat my score a single time in any week from here on out, I'll give you twenty bucks cash, no questions asked. Your first chance coming up is Alpha Mission. Came at me bro...

Well, we both know shmups are NOT my forte...although generally I get my high scores sooner than you when we play them...I just never make it to the end So basically, I have a slim chance here because you play more cautiously, but you'll probably win the marathon Oh, and is that $20 for each time or just a one shot? I figure we need to get the terms down now so you don't try and squeak out of it like when you challenged me to A Week of Garfield once it looked like I was gonna win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will coast his way to the tourney casually, turn it on, and put up inhuman scores.
