  1. The sky couldn't have been more clear in Quebec today, watched the eclipse momentarily from start to finish with the kids, it was great! Snapped a few pics and vids of it as well, it worked through the glasses with maximum lights setup on the cam.
  2. Came here to post this, but saw you beat me to it, so I had to come up with something else good real quick... But got beat again with my second pick! So I'll have to go with Tyrants Fight Through Time (Genesis), if you enter JOOLS as your password, you get to play a ripoff Asteroids game using some sprites of Tyrants... but don't try it cause it sucks.
  3. I'm a little late to mention this, but, is it just me, or he looks a bit like @Korckle in this outfit?
  4. For precision's sake, Golf Grand Slam music is Debussy's Passepied from the Bergamasque Suite
  5. Battle of Olympus as Bach's Toccata Fugue in D Minor when you visit a God's temple. Tyrants Fight Through Time (Genesis) has a clear ripoff of Mars from The Planets by Gustav Hoist during the main gameplay.
  6. Don't say that, who the hell read the rules anyway, haha! You still have a full week to think about it my good man! Also, if you post scores later, make sure to take your pics before jumping on the stage box, we also need to see the time left on the clock for each stage.
  7. Bitcoin chart since this post : I told you that you should have stated that this was not financial advice !
  8. Those lists are indeed very useful to catch movies you wouldn't otherwise. It is also cool when there's like a summary of the plot just to tease you. What I used to do a lot is when I get to know a director/screenwriter I really like, I try to watch almost all of the movies he worked on.
  9. Almost saw them all, and it is kind of funny that most of the ones I haven't seen are like super popular movies, lol. Unseen = Star Wars - E. T. - The Sound of Music - Intolerance (my bad here, it is quite a lengthy silent film) - The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowships of the Ring - Jaws - In the Heat of the Night - All the President's Men - A Night at the Opera - Swing Time - Sophie's Choice And I seen like a lot of scenes from most of these movies, I just never sat down and watched them from beginning to end.
  10. Archives from the time we were on NintendoAge (almost complete? There might be missing a few weeks) : https://archive.nes.science/nintendoage-forums/nintendoage.com/forum/messageview0d82.html?catid=31&threadid=168510 Archives since we're on VGS, you have to dig a little to find what you're looking for as I haven't took the time to put stuff in order yet : https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/forum/111-events-archive/ Have fun!
  11. You ranked 3rd apparently, but it was when Bea was still playing so it is like getting 2nd place. https://archive.nes.science/nintendoage-forums/nintendoage.com/forum/messageviewe0dd.html?catid=31&threadid=176083
  12. That game is such a complete disappointment after Exodus and Quest of the Avatar. You just can't play more than 5-10 minutes of that garbage and never come back to it, especially if you played through Ultima III and IV on NES just before.
  13. Of course the Stadium Events has to a be PAL B copy, what a bummer!
  14. BlackVega is on fire. Just after winning the 2023 VGS NES Weekly Contest Tournament, he immediately put his newly recognized influence to good use and saved Twitch from becoming a porn site. Respect!
  15. It is heart warming to see the skinnygrinny username back. This said, that NA mod pic James posted just reminded me how humorous the transition from '42 foot tapeworm' to 'docile tapeworm' actually was, hahaha!
  16. Okay guys, let's all calm down now, please Basil and Richard, no more bickery over this. It is true that in the past, we always asked players to inform us in pm about suspicions of cheating and calls over other players etiquette etc., and we all have an example of why we were asking this in the first place. It usually ends up like this. I will also mention that Bea and I (and let's add Bimmy here for the sake of history), as organizers of the contest (which would never exist in the first place without the players, let's not forget) have always had at heart to monitor the legitimacy of the competition, while trying to maintain an easy going, relaxed and friendly environment based around the honor system. This smooth ruling sometimes comes with a price here and there, as reasonable doubts and valid questioning come to the surface. I assure you that we will try to appease the mind of everyone after reviewing the situation regarding this tournament. Please give us the time to sort things out and everybody should be happy in the end. As though this looks a bit extraordinary, I can say for myself, as I been involved in this contest for over 15 years now, that we've moderated a LOT of this kind of situations in the past, mostly off the board, and that there is nothing new under the sun and it is business as usual. We'll get through this and everyone will want to play in 2024. Peace!
  17. I'm not sure if I should feel sad or relieved about it, the idea of replacing a natural hand for a bionic one seem absolutely uncomfortable, but I know at the same time you're doing it for your own good, so I wish you the best with that my dear Bea!
  18. Let's put it simply : 'things' are being reviewed by Bea and me.
