Final standings posted. And with that, @0xDEAFC0DEis your 2021 VGS NES Weekly Contest Puzzle champion, with a dominating 4 wins out of 4 games through the season!

I will kindly ask you all to post the sector of the stage where you died and respawned at at so it can be used to assess progress.

Pooyan (shooter) Challenger (plataformer) Kero Kero Keroppi no Daibouken (puzzle) Ninja Hattori-kun (action) Taito Chase H.Q. (racing) This' the definite list of games that will be available to be picked for the round 1 of the tournament.

It is doable to do a progress + low score ruleset for this, but low score takes part of the fun of the game. Progress + highest score means nailing the first 3 stages with the max score possible for them and then sailing through. Another permutation that I can think of is a slight modification of the current ruleset. Progress + highest score of your last stage. But that will require the players to always take a picture at the start of the current stage in case they die there.

This contest is progress then magic. Stage 5 with 0 magic trumps Stage 4 with 999 magic. Beating the game wins it all.

Did some rules adjustments regarding the magic picture and if one no deaths the game.

Geral and genre leaderboards updated. @Dr. Morbiscannot be reached and is the 2021 VGS NES Weekly Contest Champion! He also secure the Shooter genre crown! Congratulations!

Fixed. You still secured the title.
