Doubled up 20 times. No total random but no total exactness either. Some work and patience required

Odds for doubling up 20 times in a row would be (6/13)^20. Approx one per five million.
German should play some lottery if the game really is random.

Not sure if lvpoker has same issue.

(max score easy to reach)

Not exactly the correct place but it's an information to tell that bking3 isn't recognized in the marp database.

'bking3' isn't a MAME short game name
correct the bad stuff and resubmit, or whinge to Zwaxy

[***PL***]

Renamed '*bking3' to 'bking3'

Had been archived since m68 and wasn't working until m122.

Thanks!

Astropal ,
three people now have 4960 for first place.

Two questions:

1) Is 4960 the true maximum for the game or can this score be beaten?
2) How easy is it for someone just learning to play to reach this score?

[tar]

hey ***pl*** , how 's it going
uhm , well
in response to the query concerning astropal
1)there is a slim chance someone may be able to exceed 4960
2)honestly , it took 2 days and about 50 attempts to reach it.

[***PL***]

tar, let's watch it a little longer. If say at least 5 1st place scores are exactly the same then we'll archive it. Thx.

[Phil Lamat]

I agree with Pat : according to sawys comments, thi is not a max score.

Like you tar, for me it took 52 attempts to reach the actual 4960 score.
I noticed in the games i recorded that if you place and fire in the good way just before the end of the "only stage", then you can have 1 or 2 more targets.
But is it enough to keep this game like this, knowing that the driver is in preliminary status ? Maybe that it should be good to archive the game.

PS :
Like you can notice, i'm actually hunting for the games without score. It's fun to see my name in the MARP top 10 even if i know that many of my games will be beaten easily

Another missing game is uecology clone of ecofghtr

'uecology' isn't a MAME short game name
