Martin, you do realize you can submit a score for GEGOTW that doesn't beat your previous score and still win weekly points for the submission? You just can't win the prize money for the week unless you beat your previous score. I'm not sure if you're planning on competing in the whole 2006 series, but if you are, you could still submit for points towards the series.The_Pro wrote:Ok, 3 games at 180K, I'm done.

You know I was wondering about that while I was at work but it was too late in any case. It's all good though, I don't really know if I'll be participating every week or only for titles that interest me, depends on my free time.Zhorik wrote: Martin, you do realize you can submit a score for GEGOTW that doesn't beat your previous score and still win weekly points for the submission?

There's also the further bounty to think about...I wrote:4) If you already have a recording submitted to MARP for the game, you are eligible for the contest only if you better your previous recording. This will help negate advantage held by those players, and encourage them to "raise the bar", which is sort of the whole point here.
(EDIT: If you wish to temporarily delete your previous score in order to play along during the week, you are welcome to. I will also consider such submissions valid for Sunday/Tuesday/Thursday bonus points and for the weekly 10-7-5 cumulative points, BUT TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE MONETARY PRIZE YOU MUST STILL BEAT YOUR PREVIOUS SCORE. Prize will otherwise go to the next higher scorer.)

Ironically, you are telling that to a guy who analyzes the contents of the RAM to understand how the pseudo-random stuff work in videogames!TRB_MetroidTeam wrote:Heh Destructor... things that depends on luck factor... are not so good!

I can see it already, Destructor cracks the randomness in the Powerball lottery so he can win more GEGOTW random t-shirt drawings.MJS wrote:Ironically, you are telling that to a guy who analyzes the contents of the RAM to understand how the pseudo-random stuff work in videogames!TRB_MetroidTeam wrote:Heh Destructor... things that depends on luck factor... are not so good!

In fact, the whole universe is deterministic... we just don't know all the variables!
TJT: Will they die?
Marco: Difficult to see. Always in motion is future.
TJT: I've gotta go to them.
Marco: Decide you must what to serve them best. If you leave now, help them you could, but you would destroy all for which they have fought and suffered.
