  1. It is in the works. Albeit sloooowly. 2018 was not the first tournament. See below on keeping it going... Your archives are dusty, but they're not dust! Just a few weeks ago I began updating the "wins and points" table you made to bring it up to speed. We can't let all of that work and history disappear!
  2. skinny @42 foot tapeworm better try this week, else I'll be catching his ass on the leaderboard!
  3. This weeks top 8 will be more like a top 5 Damn this game is hard! (giggity)
  4. I haven't made participation yet. I love Q-Bert but quickly realized I've never played NES Q-Bert before. I think I've got the controls set up in a way that works now, at least.
  5. These cups will forever remind me of drinking copious amount of cola while sitting with friends at a diner.
  6. This was my first time making it to level 3 on one life. It was my 2nd or 3rd time making it to level 3 overall. I forgot what to do at this spot and died. You have to shoot the top crate, then jump from the bottom one to make it over safely. Had I been able to put a clean run together, I would have likely made it to level 4 somewhere as that's where my max progress had ended. I didn't give this game much attention. It's definitely more enjoyable as you progress, but I _really_ wasn't feeling it. You ended up with a pretty good score!
  7. Hey guys, The weekly contests started up again! Q-Bert is live!
  8. I feel it's difficult to get a picture after losing one life. The game seems very slow to pause, then goes into that menu. It's just very clunky. I'll post a score, but it won't be much.
  9. Here's my first Contra Farce (thanks for that, @Ausden) score Stages cleared: Snake Man
  10. Found it. It says "An overclock setting was used to prevent slowdown.". So if you are emulating, this might be an option? Although that is probably outside of the rules...
  11. I wasn't super serious, but did think this to be a neat thing to poke at. After some reading, this seems quite unlikely, especially considering the architecture in question. I do wonder if there is simply a really shitty performance bug in this game that could be fixed by an expert in 6502.
  12. Possible. I already am wondering how far I can get, even though I don't want to play it (yet, strangely, I DO!)....? I feel like we should put a team together to analyze and potentially optimize the code efficiency. If we can make it run more smoothly, it'd probably be awesome.
  13. This is about as long as one should be allowed to play this game anyway! It did you a favor
  14. Ah, yes. The week I forgot to post! It may also be the only week I participated in the GB weekly contest... or tried to.
  15. Also, I believe I owned that magazine as a kid. Holy crap, I have not seen or thought of it since!
  16. I didn't want to be "that guy", but I know we have the rules for a reason. I'm sure that @VegaVegas can match his score again as 3.8m in this game is not achieved by the casual player!
  17. I'm sure that @BeaIank and @guillavoie will determine if that score counts. Not so sure it complies with the rules.
  18. Is it bad that I think 5 hours of Mario Bros smashing icicles is more enjoyable than 5 minutes of this game? Maybe it will grow on me...
  19. I'm not sure I've ever played this one. It appears to have an Ikari Warriors vibe.
