--- Quote from: cotmm68030 on June 17, 2011, 11:09:36 am ---People trying for Twin Galaxy high scores are probably not going to want an automatic system as they are only allowed to submit a single 'try' file. if you make a mistake or do not score as high as you want to, you stop the record session by quitting the program and start a new attempt, dropping the old file...

I am proposing different type of scoreboard, where people are allowed to submit any score they want and as many as they want, as often as they want. Look, submissions can either be automatized or not, and I am proposing it can. Now, you can't really be serious anyone would prefer wasting 15 minutes for a single submission if there was an option to do it all automatically in 5 seconds. We have computers for the love of drugs, they can do those boring, repetitive and tedious tasks for us, right?

What makes you ask, what are you referring to?

Which illustrates why everybody involved in this hobby knows that you are an idiot.
Next time read the page that I link to before you post. Save yourself the embarrassment.

You are an idiot, my little angry friend.
If you have something to say, then say it, stop making fun of yourself.
Now, can you explain what are you talking about? Can you articulate your point?

That somebody who wishes to change the way hi scores are submitted and verified should probably understand how such scores are submitted and verified.

--- Quote ---1. All submissions MUST include the .INP and .WLF file! [Screenshots, while very welcome, are optional.] Failure to include either in your submission will invalidate your submission. [Though we usually try to email you and ask, in case you honestly forgot to archive the both. It happens, we're only human after all. This is also the part of where having a valid email address helps.]

--- Quote ---5. All Mame Submissions are 1 Shot attempts! This means when you make a recording, your 1st attempt is what counts. If you think you sucked, or died too easily or any number of wonderful things, please note that you can simply hit Escape to stop recording and then choose to record again. This is due to the fact that unlike a VHS tape/DVD, we have no means to rewind an .INP file.. and even Fast Forwarding is a chore if you're 12th attempt is the one you completely dominate the world at, but it took 8 hours of playing in the recording to get to it.

.INP files really aren't something you'd want to 'sync' with other people, and .hi files are meaningless to TG.
