Sometimes I like to challenge/keep myself interested by creating variants on games that drastically alter the straightforward play. Many of these variants almost no one would find entertaining or meaningful, but some, some might.
So my question is whether or not it would ever be possible to submit multiple scores for one particular ROMset?
I know MARP has dealt with this for certain games by dedicating one of the game's many clones as a 'special rules' ROMset. That's a damn smart thing btw, but I have my own weird challenges I like to play.
I could always just post some footage to Youtube of whatever dumb stuff I find amusing, but I figured it won't hurt anything to ask for opinions or insight as to how this question has been answered in the past.
Thankx.

Re: Huge Fat Question
MARP does have a few tips and tricks pages that dont fall into the normal leaderboards which hasn't been updated in a while.

but Marp has nothing like multiple submissions per game. So posting youtube links is the only way at the moment to direct playback of non highscoring (in regulation rules) events. Harp (Marp's home console spinoff) does this, for any way you want to play a game Harp will create a side competition, so it's almost unlimited in the number of ways you can play one individual game as long as there is a distinct way to play from the regulation and other side competitions already created. Harp wolfmess (similar to wolfmame) recordings are here.

Re: Huge Fat Question
You could also create a thread annoucing your variation here on the forums and people could upload replays as attachments to the thread. That's been done a couple of times when there was interest in a variation that didn't match normal MARP submission rules.
I don't really like the idea of adding a lot of variations to the main scoreboard though.
