I don't get your lols. You are the least person to speak about spirit of games.
Go to English lessons, or something, stop using stupid defcons, grow up.

DQ all others without finish is not problem I think.
clealy this game is not for money.
I don't agree that all recordings should be DQ'ed. Players who finish are already getting HUGE bonuses under this scoring system compared to those who don't. If nobody can playback the recordings and they aren't deleted, the old scores will still sit there and won't benefit from the 100k * levels completed they'd be getting. So I don't see why that's a problem.

I'll add in the Special Rules later, and if zfz hasn't done so himself, his score will be edited to 4,509,300...

The score plays back as advertised. As soon as there is a final decision on the scoring system, I will confirm.

maybe he's talking about point hunting rather than finishing as fast as possible?

or playing with the black marble?

This still doesn't have a special rule, as advertised by this topic. (and dunno why but I've just dreamt of this game, hence I've remembered it :o ...)

I mean updating the scores? :/

Oh please, is there any effing usefulness of this Regulation Play chairman thing? Really, if the max I can do is to "tell" people about what they are supposed to do ... well, I'll withdraw the position asap. :evil:

My opinion:

Someone give the guy editor rights for his RC term. I found it a bit tedious to ask for every edit during my time...
Well at least I had rights to edit special rules.

(Errr...you could as well give Kale QT's editor rights...)

All checked and edited, except for GameGuru, Bubble and Ozz.
If someone can playback one of them, let us know on what stage is the game over
(I suspect some playabck problems due to OS used)

Scores also fixed for clones (youkaidk/youkaidko).
At least those which playback correctly.
Others have the mention "pending special bonus" ... maybe someone can playback them ?
