I got 69K (nice) but I miiiiiiiight try to improve before posting.

What even are those Battletoads rules? Lol. Should be a fun week that's for sure.

30,520 Pretty tough game! Need some more work on this one someday.

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.

Haven't actually played this one but I do have the cart for it! Maybe I'll get familiar with this a little before attempting a score on Saturday.

Nice job fellas! 4th place in Marble Madness in this forum sure seems like a win to me!

I wanna do a deathless run someday. That will probably coincide with a 170K score.

168,260 I'm super happy with this run, don't think I've even gotten 160K before, let alone this close to 170K. Got a Beginner wand and died once in Practice (lol), Beginner, and Silly. This was on my 4th or 5th attempt.

116,450 Participation score I guess. I'm kind of digging the "let's pop this in Saturday night and see what I can do" thing I've got working.

11,549,260 I got pretty worried when I was down to one life on the final boss, but I got the job done!

627,800 I’d do better if I actually knew the strats and could do 1-1 halfway decently. Thanks for at-ing me @docile tapeworm!

This is a really great list! It's fun to check back in with you all ... I know I have been, uh, less than present for a while now. I don't think I'll be competing but may throw in some scores for funsies, especially the Famicom entries. I might have to buy the basketball game if shipping isn't stupid expensive.

Finally following the thread so I can see everyone's accomplishments!

This is way, way, way (way) late, but my SS was @Deadeyeand he did awesome! I’m really happy with my gift. First pic is what I opened on Christmas morning. I was real pleased with everything, and then last week another package shows up! I am very happy with everything. Thanks so much! EDIT: Shout out to my iPhone for flipping the picture

I beat Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I picked up the speedrun of this game last year. Finished it tonight in 23:00, which really isn't that great for me but not too bad.

Congrats everyone on finishing this! I haven't been all that active here lately but I have been watching from afar and I'm glad to see it come together near the finish line. I'll still be good for 5-10 clears next year as well, whatever I happen to be playing. I'm right in the middle of playing Ultima: Exodus right now, which I understand doesn't help for next year's list and probably keeps me from submitting all that many clears since most of the library gets done early in the year. But nevertheless I'll still be around!

Hey everyone, remember me? Somehow I had a tournament spot too but I declined. Consider yourselves lucky, I guess. Hope everyone has a good time. Good luck!

I just adjusted my list from last year. All good, I'm in!

Hey everyone! I have not been by near as much lately. I would love to do this but it's not looking good for me to get a list in on time.

Maybe you forgot because you are obviously an expert at this game. The late game makes it so that any death sets you way back. The game wouldn't nearly be as hard otherwise.

301,063 Couldn’t really get anything going other than this.

I did a fun run this morning and got 95,830 in 5-1. Pretty good for no derust!

I heard my name! I’m not sure if I’ll have time today to get a play in, but if I do I’ll post it. Will be a one-and-done situation. I expect that I will do pretty decent even rusty. I still have my notes from when I beat it

Doing Bill & Ted blind is rough because you are almost finding specific pixels where hidden items are that you may or may not need. If you use maps or a guide, then it's not so bad, just tedious. I've still been monitoring the thread and I'm excited at the prospect of finishing off the year pretty soon! I don't see myself contributing any more though. I think there's 5 or 6 games left that I've already done but either it would take me too long to get back up to speed or I just don't feel like playing them (like digging up the Power Pad stuff, for instance). I'll keep an eye out here though, just in case! Would hate to see things fizzle out if it came down to it. EDIT: Also Bases Loaded is incredibly easy but an enormous time sink. Thought someone was working on that but not sure.

I bought my copy a couple of years ago and it looks like the price has hardly moved since then, but I did snag it when eBay was doing 20% off coupons for awhile so it was sort of a deal.
