Maybe you should add that inputs are to be uploaded with short name = juju.
0.111u2: David Haywood added clone JuJu Densetsu (Japan, bootleg). Renamed (tokij) to (juju).

Or not uploaded at Marp (only hardest diff allowed there). Only here ?

I don't believe. Toki in final
I can only say:
my condolences when you will leech

[BBH]

my condolences when you will leech

I'm already dreading this.

Maybe coordinators can change rule and give bonus points for extra lives after finish game. I know what I say!

I fully support this idea. It's not too late, nobody's submitted anything yet!

[GHEMANT]

We thought about the porpousal of BBH but we decided it's not necessary to apply a special rules (infinite leech isn't possible)

[destructor]

(infinite leech isn't possible)

We say about nerves and lost time during plant leeching, not infinite leeching.

japanese game sucks. Leeching sucks



For me the greatest player is not only who makes the biggest score, but who go more far in the stages of the game. If some player go to 10th stage on magical drop and do 500.000 pts, it's a best player, in my oppinion, than another player that scores 1.000.000 in first stage. I liked k6, round of ghosts' n goblins. That was fair.

Hi Gemant!

We know you would love to compare K7 records with Japanese ones. But for sure TOKI was not a good choice due the leeching possibilities.

I played this one during a French tournament in 2005, and it was a bad choice too.

Like Kale said on #MARP, a Time Trial for this game would be very better (a la GNG).

k7 is great .
in my views ,choosing a hard game better than a common game ,If i'm a umpire ,I will choose these hard-games which haven't been finished on marp yet! such as: Knuckle Bash ,riot city,Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Turtles in Time......

500.000 pts in ten stages it's easy target. 1.000.000 after first stage is very hard, because 20 or more chains is hard.

I am not breaking the rule though you seem to want to criticize me.
I am not a great player at all, though.

Nobody has submitted anything on this game yet because nobody wants to play it.

20+ minutes of leeching in the same spot is STUPID. Nobody should be forced to go through something like this. It's not fun or interesting for anyone involved. A decent platform game turns into a completely horrible one for competition because of its horrible scoring system. All of this could be averted with an alternate scoring system (as K4 did in the finals with Battle Chopper, another game with leeching but I don't remember it being anywhere near as bad as this), or a time trial, like TRB said. But no, for some reason it's more important to compare this tournament's scores to the Gamest record, even though nobody's going to beat that.

I know I have a reputation for complaining about a lot of games, but this is completely justified. This game is one of the worst choices for a tournament ever.

I think everyone who dropped out and didn't submit a score in recent rounds is smarter than me

[destructor]

I didn't play in K7 but fully agree with BBH.
Please look how its was simple in K4:
