[acvieluf]

Congratulations Yamatetsu! It. Is. Yours.

Thanks ! Congrats to you too for grabbing the second place 

How yamatetsu feels about the bronze joystick this year: haha

Haha, yep thanks as well. Good thing for both of us Wakimiko didn't hang around XD.

It would have made it a lot more interesting, that's for sure. But by the time he started making points, I already was 13 points ahead. He'd have had to make 14 points good on me in 11 games, which would at least have been a challenge.

Sorry to dig this up but just wanted to ask the guys who played this a Q.

When I was playing i intermitantly got a black screen for a few secs.

I thought it may of been my vga cables so replaced it but its still doing it.

But seemingly only on this game?

Anyone else have this prob?

[SlyBlueFox]

I never had any black screen problems.

[yamatetsu]

Me neither.

[Titchgamer]

Hmm very odd!
Maybe my version of mame or something.
Guess ile have to keep monitoring it and see if it happens anywhere else.

Hey, totally legal to revisit *any* old competition & post a new score or comment. Somebody was maintaining an all-time high score thread, I thought, where folks could go back to finished competitions & try to beat the best scores.


As for graphics performance, I'm using old .115u2 & a rather old PC, & my machine finds running Elevator Action Returns to be challenging. Some audio chopping, some low framerates sometimes, some non-smooth scrolling. But no black screens.
