Game - Bonk's Adventure / B.C. Kid / Kyukyoku!! PC Genjin (bonkadv)
Duration of Round - October 3rd 2006 00:00 GMT - October 9th 2006 23:59 GMT



Anybody who was an avid gamer during the era of 16-bit home consoles should have at least heard of Bonk, who appeared in a few platform games for NEC's TurboGrafx-16 / PC Engine console (and later some other ports), he even became their "mascot" for a while. Lesser known however is the fact that he starred in an arcade release a few years later, but it seems to have been released only in Japan.

Although the game has the same basic mechanics as the home versions (use your prehistoric gigantic head to kill stuff), there are some interesting differences in this game... mainly the fact that there are 21 levels and 7 bosses, but you can choose to play through the stages in any order you want. This comes in handy if you want to get the "hard" levels out of the way as soon as possible. I'm very interested in seeing someone finish it, since I have a feeling it's going to happen in this round :D

Good luck!

My sample junk... will improve soon!

Here's a sample junk leechfest. Technique ought to be banned.
Quit at 4.06 million, as I was bored.

Again, Thursday is my 1st play day! Ouch!
By the way, very good game for this round!

okay, for this tournament (doesn't necessarily have to be a MARP special rule, but...), using this "leech" tactic on bosses is forbidden. If you run out of time during a regular level, or you run out of time before you kill a boss, fine... but letting time run out after you've killed a boss WILL NOT BE ALLOWED. Even if you were trying and unintentionally had time run out before you could reach the goal. The time limit is quite generous on the bosses so I would hope that everyone would be able to kill a boss within the limit anyway.

MARP is down so :

JYD - 6 107 830 pts - wolf+106

MARP's been fine the last couple of hours here.

ZTNet, in general, was rather dodgy last night. Not that that's something new.

Also note that he did upload the score to MARP some 6 or so hours ago.

destructor
Nanni - (why i'm so scared about this?)

saru3000
The Pro

I will be happy if I will play with you Nanni. But remember that zylquin is good player.
I don't know where is gastrainga. If I will have more time today and tommorow gstrain can prepare for 14-15 mln score for sure.

EDIT
I don't know for 100% but I notice that items from plants aren't randomly. Maybe in game is something like as in Knight of the Round or other 'special random system'.

Hey Des im waiting for this from 2003, when i missed K3 final, even if i haven't a single chanche
damn i will try to improve this afternoon, i respect zylquin and i know that i need my best game for pass this round
but the deadline monday night is really disappointing tomorrow i can't play only wait with finger crossed

maybe...

I wish I could be giving you a better fight Nanni because you are a great player and would fight back well, but you should be ok this round. No excuses, I'm just overwhelmed by this game.

just a little over 10 hours left in this round, and no scores yet from Abbe, BDF, or Phil Lamat. If any of you are reading this, now would be a good time to get a score in :)

BDF, where are you? I am disappointed you have not uploaded a score yet, nor have you said anything on these forums.
