this is one of the earliest leeches i've seen on a game, and it's pretty severe in this case. Phil, suggestions?

I agree that the input is very boring to watch till 650k, but as the game has a timer, and as the guy finishes the game, we're here in a case of points maximisation.
It's hard to state a rule on this type of leeching ...
As far as I remember, most of the best scores on Metal Slug are still there with same kind of strategy.

If you have a solution, a rule easy to apply, let us know ...
