DKong Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Lucky to get three games I like at the start, will enjoy being on top over the next couple of weeks, while I can :D The rest of Tassie contingency are wailing near the bottom of the ladder:lol , Ramere can be excused as he is extending his gamesroom.

Rat Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 I take it as a great compliment when people get overly excited when the beat me. I once had a friend and mountain bike racing rival who I had been racing against for years beat me fair and square in an important race, I was disappointed in my effort and looking for reasons (read excuses). But he was so excited when I crossed the line 10 seconds behind him that he jumped off his bike and ran across to give me a big hug while I was still trying to catch my breath and wipe the sweat and mud from my eyes. I will never forget how excited he was, it made me feel good that beating me was such an important goal for him, I was actually glad he did beat me, he deserved it. I didn't diminish his win by making excuses for my race effort. DKong, when I see you later today, don't give me a hug as I am feeling a bit sick, just a cold I hope.

No problem mate think I will be hugging your Asteroids cab though :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted December 20, 2010 Author Share Posted December 20, 2010 I liked the Rat's Tale ;) I saw that thread with the Asteroids cab going and wished I was more flush than I am at the moment :( but at least it went to a good home, have you taken delivery of it yet ???

Rat Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Yes Jamma, I have it set up and have been playing for over a week (hmmm not non stop) It's a great game, a true classic, and yes it has gone to a good home. I'm researching stocking up on spares now before they become too rare, so I can keep it in top working order for as long as possible. Also reading repair guides and brushing up my limited skills. I'm commited to the preservation of this game :) We are all enjoying playing it, even my Wife who generally isn't a real gamer, and my 7yr old son, miss 15 has only had a couple if games, she prefers online fps. We have a whiteboard for our scores, I'm first with a beatable 42k and my son will soon get his first free ship, his score is 9k. When I clock it at 100k I might purchase a fully reversible plug in hiscore mod that saves your scores and doesn't clock at 100k. The world record is safe for now though :) Might get round to posting some pics in the appropriate forum soon :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Good stuff Rat, would love to see the pics. I'd love a vector cab, Battlezone, Space War, Asteroids, any of those thanks very much :) The small ones around here mostly like the 2-P co-op games on my cab, ie Bubble-Bobble is a huge hit. 13 y/o got over 100k on Xevious the other day, he's shooting for my high and I can see him getting it before too long. He went through a phase of WoW but he's over it (thank goodness, god that game is a yawn) the 360 stuff I have is still a bit too Adult for him. 11 y/o girl is into anything branded Mario on the Wii, having just picked up the Mario 25th Anniversary edition that's a pretty popular around here at the moment. Must say I'ma pretty big Mario fan too, nintendo quite easily make the best platformers, no doubt in my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 The Spacies icons look good :) Thanks :) 5 Games and 5 different winners so far a bit unusual ? At #1 spot Dkong is still out in front by a decent margin. Happy that I went from #7 spot to #2 in one jump this week :) And Taverner is as usual Mr Consistant, always scoring well in most games and only one point behind in third.

Taverner Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 You had to go and jinx me :D everything at my place with a f***ing computer chip in it rebelled in unison this week. I started it all off when I rebuilt the mame computer from scratch, somehow killing the internet and causing days of crap till I eventually wiped and redid my old desktop just to avoid taking out the mallets! Kind of online now and the mame cab's working better then ever (I even managed to compile mame yay) so hopefully I'll get to berserk tonight....... just don't wish me luck.

Hewitson Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Nintendo quite easily make the best platformers, no doubt in my mind. My vote would definitely have to go to Sega for quantity... As far as quality goes, the Donkey Kong Country series are definitely the best platform games ever made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha, those anti technology clouds can be a bitch, my place went through a similar phase recently, how come these things all happen at once? had to rebuild 2/3 pc here, kids playing those website flash based games, methinks theres foul play afoot with be some of those sites.

Jed Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 Leaderboard updated, weird result this week hardly any movements at all, just things got a bit closer up top not many points between the top 5 places. Going to be a good close run to the flag :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 The Leaderboard tightened up this week with Taverner the big mover, almost stealing away 1st place from Dkong, breathing down his neck by a 2 point margin. The championship is still wide open at the moment, for anyone in the top 5 or 6 places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 A new leader this week, Taverner takes a 3 point lead going into the 2nd last game, it's going to be a close finish, looks like him and Dkong will be battling it out for the title - unless something drastic happens! Kane leapfrogged me and takes third place *shakes fist at Kane* Two games left ! 10 games 10 different winners :) Can the trend continue this week ??

Jed Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 I'm going to have to go hard this week as I'm the only player in the top 10 without a http://i54.tinypic.com/2pyz1ft.gif against my name :cry But talk about close, only a single point seperates the top two, Taverner and Dkong going into the final week of MGL12. Kane is looking like he has a mortgage on the final podium spot, but Rat, Brad, and Me are still in with a shout for the top 3. Gentlemen, start your cabs.

knight76 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Alright i'm in the top 10. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) And so we come to the end of another MGL... Dkong takes it out by a slim margin from both Taverner and Kane. Rat leapfrogs me and steals 4th by a point! And Kane ends up as the only player in this MGL to win more than one game - and with a strong finish grabs a share of second place. Thanks again everyone for your participation. I enjoyed running this, my first MGL as overlord. Thanks to Wingtipvortex for being my wingman and chief game chooser :D See you all in MGL 13 ;) Edited March 6, 2011 by Jed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jed Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 Doh, I joined the forum just as the MGL tournament finished! How often do you guys run these tournaments? Hi Gman (you a half-life fan by any chance? ;)) Ordinarily MGL's are held roughly 3-4 times a year, MGL goes for 12 weeks. I'm thinking at this stage around end of May/early June for the next rumblings of ideas and nominations to start for MGL13. But yeah, come on down for the next one fer sure.
