We have a perfect Money Puzzle Exchanger score!

About five minutes before I wrote this post, I have confirmed that MvdV has achieved a perfect score in Money Puzzle Exchanger - I believe that's the first such accomplishment recorded on the MAME emulator... to my knowledge anyway...
<p>

MvdV didn't mention specifics... so I will :)

<p>

344,850 points (worth 35 points if they didn't lock at 16...)

<p>

Level 39! (Worth about 30 points...)

<p>

164 Chains! (Worth about 27 or so points...)

<p>

16 Max Chain - with no help from an eraser or a rank up! (17 points)

<p>

All of this was done in seven minutes, two seconds.

<p>

They are all worth 16 points per category(except time), so that's a perfect 64 points. Without the locks, I'd estimate about 110 points!

<p>

Once again, congratulations MvdV!

<p>

And thanks to all for reading :)

Un-freakin-believable.
<p>

That's all I can say after watching this recording. I can't believe he
got the 16-part chain so EARLY, without having to use the ER or RU
icons. Can't believe how carefully that was planned out. And Level 39?
Man oh man... if only he'd matched those two RU's near the end, he
could have broken 40... not that it matters once you've already maxed
out the 16 points..

<p>

Never thought I'd see it happen since I'll never be able to do it
myself. :) Mad props to MvdV!

<p>

I must say Congratulations to MvdV, and ask if you could teach the
rest of us how to do that! :)

<p>

Makes my 26 look pitiful... (I have made 30 in practice but I wasn't
recording it - argh!)

It's interesting we assume it's a "he" that made this recording, i'm
sure one of these days some girl is going to get really pissed :)
truly an insane recording, the speed at which he makes decisions is
phenominal, there were plenty of chances that would have boosted his
level to 40 early on as well, i think there were two special coin
mistakes (maybe there was a reason for exchanging them with the
screen close to empty?) that if he didn't make them he would have had
a full screen when the special coins were exchanged to get more
chains/points/etc.

<p>

mad phat or whatever congrats to you mv, and it even plays back in
mame35 :)

two words: HOLY SHIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEETTTT!!! let's just hope this is
zwaxy's cue to start scoring MPE solo play by regular score (not the
2-digit one shown at the end)

<p>

all my congrats to MV

Great Score !! my best score is for the moment 39. I was wondering if
there's a money puzzle exchanger version playable online ? it could
be interesting to have some mpe tournaments :).
If you got answers, please reply me here : groovykid@hotmail.com

On a related not, MV's recording was later determined to have slowdown
cheat performed on it, so i don't think we have a uncheated 100% speed
64 yet.

Correct - it was later determined that slowdown was used. Aaron
Pieper did submit a legal and perfect money puzzle exchanger
recording... one day short of two years after my first recording...
which was in money puzzle exchanger - solo play :) GB9

I have made a 63 on my MVS but I think I'll have to make a 64 as soon
as I receive my hotrod... and also can play during the olympiades

Do you need to make a movie or will a screen shot do?
My best to date is a 51. I love this game. I especially love it when
you're playing in the zone and the chains are just coming to you
without you even thinking about.

I won't be a jerk about this, but that is why it's called the Action
Replay page. We use INP files (pretty much a movie) from MAME to
show others our skill and talent. And if you didn't realize that at
first, then just ignore the entire first line :)

Hmm, I think prairiedog2k ask yoann to make a movie or a screenshot
from his 63 on MVS. On MVS they're not inp, so we can't see yoann's
skills :-)

No, I really think that he is saying if he should make a movie or
will a screen shot do, not the other guy :)
