GENERAL CONTEST RULES:

-Contest is open to all members of Video Game Sage.

-  In order to submit a score for the contest, post a picture of it in the thread for that week.  If you are using an emulator that is not running on a VR headset, take a picture of your score with your Video Game Sage user name written or typed on a piece of paper, which must be present in the picture. Your Video Game Sage user name MUST be in the picture or the score will be invalid.  If you are playing on a Virtual Boy console or VR headset, you do not need to have your user name on a piece of paper.  Depending on the game, you may have to include your user name (or a portion of it) on a name entry screen.

- Previously obtained scores are not acceptable as submissions.  You must play the game during the week it has been selected.

- When posting a new score, please begin your post by typing out your score.  Larger font (18pt) is preferred.

- If you are posting an updated score, please create a new post with your new score and delete the picture from your previous post with the old score.  You may also edit your initial post with the new photo and score.

- It is highly encouraged to play with original software on original hardware, if possible.

- This is a contest of skill, so using any sort of device or feature that would give you an advantage over another player is prohibited.  Examples include, but not limited to, cheat devices, save states, altered ROMs, remapped controllers, and turbo functions.  The use of glitches to alter your score is also not allowed.  Any other glitches will be examined on a case-by-case basis to determine whether or not they will be permitted.  Any glitches discovered by participants must be reported and approved for use before submitting a score using them.

-Although not required, I would encourage participants not to practice a game in advance.

- Points will be awarded each week as follows:

1st – 10 points
2nd – 9 points
3rd – 8 points
4th – 7 points
5th – 6 points
6th – 5 points
7th – 4 points

I'm going to advertise this on PlanetVB if nobody's opposed.

I'm nervous to find out if my Virtual Boy emulator works correctly. I swear that I found an issue with Golf once, maybe I will have to look into it again before trying to join in the fun.
