all others switched off
----------------------------------------------------
- One credit only!
- No continues or adding credits!
- No MAME cheats!
- Last day is Monday Feb 13th (11:59:59pm Pacific Daylight Time), 2012.
- High score wins.
- No savestates, savestate practices, etc. during the round.
- MAME INP recordings are encouraged but optional.
- A screenshot is required to enter a score (press F12 to save screenshot showing your final score) or take a photo of the game screen.
- If you're a MARP competitor on this title, keep in mind this is just a friendly competition among forum members, so maybe you shouldn't enter. However, if you're a forum member and this is a game you're good at and nobody knows about it, this is your time to shine!
- Even if you don't have a competitive score or if you don't *think* that you have a competitive score, please post it anyway to keep the thread fun & to give everybody a good sense of score ranges.
- Please make sure your scores are from games that take place during the competition period (no posting your best score from last year, etc.).
- Use of autofire or other non-standard hacks within MAME or your PC's OS are not allowed. No program or other person or entity of any sort may manipulate your controls during your game. Coaching & back-seat driving is fine as long as the party doesn't directly influence the game or controls.
- If you can beat any of the high scores from the previous competitions, you can submit your score to the BYOAC High Game Scoreboard.
Best of luck!

i just copy pasted the rules...do i have the times right..2 weeks? lastly,,will my scores count towards my own choice?
currently averaging around 150,000..weaksauce
Le Chuck:
Just put up mid 200k twice in a row. Games average around 10 minutes and KM is in the 3k range. Things I've figured out
1) I hate that damn cat more than the snickering dog in duck hunt.
2) I really need to compile a High Score MAME because I just lost my scores.
3) Balloon bonus isn't worth the trouble, 1000x per oil pales in comparison to the 3.5k avg I'm getting out of vehicle kills.
4) It's pretty much impossible to see the track on parts of the Australia and Japan stage.
5) That cat is the devil.
Edit: Just put up 325k and 4898km on second game of the night. Comp hi score is at 431K and I think I'll have that licked in a few days. Made a lot of stupid errors on my last board and blew three guys in a matter or seconds. I can't play more than two games a night because the music kinda stays with me otherwise.

Looks good. And as to your scores, yes and no...the way we've been doing it (almost since the beginning), when you pick the game, you can't pick the next one if you win the one you picked. 2nd place gets to pick instead. That way someone can't just keep picking all the games they're good at and not give anyone else a chance.
Also, good choice...it's an interesting game. I've played it a little, but not enough to figure out all the tricks. I'm not even sure what kind of score I can get. I'll definitely be playing though :)
