General Rules:
- One Credit, No Continues.
- Highest 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.

Good luck!

Oh yes, I went there.

Holly ninja batman! I hope this game has nothing to do with baseball or you just eliminated half the world from participating! I'll give it a shot, but just the word baseball gives me ---meecrob--- chills!

[jasonbar]

If you don't trust me, you can take James' word for it. This is one of the awesomest awesomes that has ever awesomed.

Holly ninja batman's dirty socks, this game has hardly anything to do with baseball!!
31,870 after 3 games (each time different character) will post picture later if I can't get to higher score.
And btw the name of the game is Bat Man not the DC comic books super hero! (at least that's who I thought I'm gonna encounter)

[Tafoid]

Using most recent release (0.148u4):
43,520 (Beginning of 3rd Stage, using Jose)

 

[mimic]

52,280 Vegas kicked my butt.

[mimic]

Just slightly improved. Cards annoying me!

[Gray_Area]

Yeah, I read it as man with a bat. But I don't read Batman. So it's a fighter, which makes sense given it says bat man. Duh.

That dude in the video looks like Arnold's blue-eyed nerd clone. Especially during the facial expressions.

2nd page!?
I guess there was not only 43 machines released total, but also 43 roms or something!? And what's up about accusations that there isn't enough games from the 90's? What's the point if no one plays them!
Anyway, I died on 3rd boss.

Last day. The awesomeness is almost over.

I had a party yesterday & 4 of us played all the way through. It was a bit...overwhelming...

This game seems like it would much better (easier) with more than one person! 

Not bothering with a picture but the best I could do was 27k

[mimic]

Hey, what do you know, I won! Thank you lack of participants!

I'll do the total since Jason seem too busy

mimic-56,390 (could've been 66,390, if I didn't pick up baseball too late and lost 10K bonus)
Tafoid-43,520
kixfan-~27K
jasonbar-26,130

Next competition tonight, a classic... I think (at least in my country was well known) Stay tuned!

Beat 'em ups always are, because often they're ridiculously hard, or utterly stupid.

Man, two days over already, and I didn't even....step up to the plate.
