I agree. These threads are supposed to be about the fun of the game being played, the scores, tips and tricks. It definitely kills the mood if we're talking about a bunch of setup.
That topic should have been put in another thread, regardless of whether or not it's popular.  If people don't get on board with that dedicated thread, what's the point of inserting that discussion here if just as many people aren't interested?

Torino, relax, no one is getting on your case, or taunting you as you keep repeating. Your score-sync tool is great, but it doesn't fit everyone's configuration, therefor it doesn't work for this competition since this is supposed to be friendly, easy to compete and open to everyone. If these comps start adding software requirements, it might turn a lot of people away from participating.
IMO, the work you've done would be better served if you were to try to get it actually integrated into Mame as an option to turn on/off. 

Now can we please get the thread back to the competition?  It has been a while since I've participated in these comps, and already I'm starting to get a bad vibe from this thread.

No worries, this weeks competition is almost at an end.  :cheers:

Last day is Friday July 8 (11:59:59pm Pacific Daylight Time), 2011.

I think the only problem here is the lack of motivation and small number of people participating. Anyway, here is separate thread where we can discuss how to make this competition more interesting, including shared web-folder -->  http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=112907.0

@emphatic Just quickly one more time about the autofire use. If I was in 2nd place maybe I would be more vocal about it, I really don't care as long as people that are competing for 2nd place don't mind, but I also think that left and right hand coordination has a lot to do with winning in this game, so when you take that element out I'd think that puts you at an advantage. Also the competitions also supposed to resemble arcade settings, and there wouldn't be any autofire. As to playing naked that's a whole another story, I'm not getting into! But as I mentioned if others don't care neither do I.
Waiting for the 2nd place winner to pick next game!

I'm not totally for allowing auto-fire in these comps, but then, how would anyone know? And since most of us are playing on cabs, or arcade sticks, you can hammer the fire button as quickly anyway. If it was a console competition, I would definitely say no.
