Oh man, I feel a downloading binge coming on, time to grab MESS and some roms and see what songs I've been missing.

Good tunes, I wasn't aware of these versions of Sky Shark. Got a link to more of the X68000 and Fujitsu songs? Yes, the NES (not SNES) version was crap, both in terms of gameplay and music. Someone actually told me a while back that he thought the NES version was great, I almost hurt him, who was it...

I have no time to play whatsoever...but screw it, a few days after the shmups tourney should be enough to make top 32. So that's 3 competitions at once plus my current internship which eats up 50 hours per week, guh.

The Pro - CANADA

I'd vote for only changing the rules on one of the sets if that was an option.

So what would happen to the current scores then? Would this also apply to the various shooters that have the same endless gameplay with constant extra lives? Wouldn't be too bad to add different rules to a clone if it had few scores on it but it seems a shame to bump those with good replays already ...

If me being here meant I wasn't currently inundated with work, then yes, I would .

Got things done at Funspot in regards to Hang-On. For the machine upstairs the time setting was indeed at hard. It has now been set to normal (90sec). I was just barely able to finish the game with 2.4 seconds left after many tries. I'm about 99% sure the traffic setting was at normal. Plus, the mac...

I'm kinda surprised no one has copied Dan's strategy for magdrop3. Free points people, plus it wouldn't be too hard to beat his score after that.

Watching some inps I can tell that I was working much too hard trying to get large combos and delaying them by stacking on top of the disappearing balls so they drop slowly. Quick small combos with no delay clearly work much better. Still not playing anymore but I'm interested in the games at the ve...

I'll be taking my leave from K7 at this point. Studies are starting to ramp up and even if I get past this round I would surely have to bail out on someone during the vs rounds. Good luck to all competitors.

Time bonus is such a bitch on magical drop 3. Sometimes you lose points because your combo was longer than it needed to be on the early levels and other times you get a huge bonus for no reason. See attached inp for 90250 point bonus on stage 6, pure luck. I know the high scores probably come from h...

I did put it there, but anyway doesn't matter, RAX explained what the bug was.

Can't playback the scoring bug inp:

Fatal error: Failed to open file for playback (src/emu/inptport.c:3606)

I gather w125 is for wolf125 but what's the 13m?

Since Chase HQ is down, can we get an explanation of the scoring technique for 30 million?

Maze game, blargggg. Incidently, I've had no problems playing back any Chase HQ inp on multiple systems.
