1) Notman, can you send me your e-mail. I caught your comment on Pepper II and was wondering if you meant that there's been a dip settings change since older versions of MAME.
<p>

2) Ali Baba will be added to the banned games list within the week, and all scores will be wiped (inluding mine ). None of the new .inps play back for me (since the game fixes in the .37 cycle) and the .inps before the fixes that do play back on the old romset were not the complete game (bonus/bad boxes were missing) If you want to comment about this decision please post to this thread.

<p>

3) I haven't looked at the PC_10 dips yet; I will over the long weekend. More info, and a vote, to follow.

<p>

4) Anything else I need to look at, please post here or e-mail me at qan@home.com

Happy MARPing,

About Ali Baba. Is it enough to ban a game just because one person
can't play back the inp files? It seems that Skito confirmed Sampras'
60.500 score last month. So, obviously it's possible for some MARP
users to play it back.

<p>

Just asking?

<p>

Bye.

skito, do you have an answer? I keep getting random boxes when I try
and play .inps back, and nothing was posted on the Ed. board per my
request... this is news to me.

darn i thought i answered that one, samprases and everyone elses
alibaba (except yours i think) playsback fine if you remove all cfg
nvram files, one thing i did notice is that there is no known good
dump for alibaba.4a and alibaba.7f and mine aren't all zero files.
i'll bet those who can't play this back have these files missing or
all zeroed out. here are my crcs for alibaba.zip

Also i couldn't find any rule reference to it but, zip just uploaded
a multi credit recording and claimed the score of the second game
played on the inp. I've edited it to the first game because i think
if we let people upload multiple credit inps it'll get too out of
hand, that should probably be in the rules somewhere ever since Stig
had that multi credit recording in T1...<br><br>

Looks like point 2) about Ali Baba is my bad. Forget I wrote it, it
definitely seems to be something with my romset.

<p>

2a in the Rules was meant to cover first recording only, but I'll
clarify that. thanks skito
