John73 Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 ED_209 was the big mover - going from 11th to 3rd after a strong Snow Bros. score. Jammasized rounds out the top 5 with a count back 2nd place in game 1. Rob increased his lead (and his chances of having limbs broken by fellow MGLers) with his 2nd win from 2 games played :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 Leaderboard updated - 3 games down, 5 to go. Jammasized was the big mover this week, cutting Robs lead a little. Jamma will possibly be missing for the rest of the tournament while he receives intensive phsyio treatment on his buggered right arm after the Hyper Olympics marathon. :lol What a fun game, and it's always nice to see a white guy win the 100m sprint - don't expect to see that happen in London :laugh: And after my 5hr 20min game of Hyper Olympics and updating the scores (my brain now hurts) you can stick a fork in me - I'm done.

John73 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Rob still has a commanding lead after 4 games completed. Spartan moved up 3 places with his first win in MGL 15 :cool: Half way through MGL 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John73 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 I like the medals, nice touch :cool: Glad you like :) I scabbed the graphics off the net, but had to get OOO to "transparent them up" for me because I'm crap and using anything beside MS Paint :laugh: Thanks OOO, you're a champ and for all the other MGL logo stuff you've done :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 Leaderboard updated. Sorry I didn't do it last night, bloody forum kept timing out on me when I tried to reply/edit posts :realmad: RMacauley looks virtually un-catchable at the moment - his legs however are looking tired from climbing up on the podium so much. Rat was the big mover along with Foot who both got their first medals of MGL 15 :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted August 5, 2012 Author Share Posted August 5, 2012 Leaderboard updated. Another win for Rob in Pandora's Palace and he extends his lead to be pretty much unbeatable in MGL 15. Spartan increased his buffer to be a pretty safe bet for 2nd. All interest is for the 3rd place with Jamma only ahead of Kane on medal countback and myself 2 pts behind. For those placing large wagers on who will get 3rd place, I pretty much suck at Momoko 120% and have never played Anteater so save your dosh :lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 One week left of Anteater to sort out the final placings. Rob is untouchable for the Gold. Spartan has the silver all but sown up and just needs 2 points to guarantee it. Kane has moved in the Bronze position but will need a good score as Nicko71, Jammasized and myself are poised to take the Bronze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 Final standings are up. Congrats to Rob, head and shoulders above everyone. A top 3 finish in every game too :cool: Congrats to Spartan for easily taking the Silver. Thanks to everyone for playing. Stay tuned to the MGL, we'll be working on a little something to play during the break between MGL XV and MGL XVI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicko71 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Congrats Rob, super effort. Also to Spartan & John. And a big cheers to John for your efforts working on MGL 15. :023: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikie Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 great work John, another historic MGL with world records, only played one game really but enjoyed following the mgl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED_209 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Well done Rob on another well earned victory. I'm pretty happy to land in 10th spot considering I only competed in 3 games. Hopefully next time I'll be able to play them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire_Power Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 A good comp with some fun games - thanks for running John :) I think the shorter format was more enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craft1nz Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 As an avid forum reader but not yet arcade owner, this was the first MGL I've ever followed but really enjoyed following the progress the whole way through. In a month or two I should be up and running and can't wait to try out these games that I've been reading so much about. Keep up the great work John and I hope to join the masses (nearer the bottom of the table though) in MGL's to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted August 20, 2012 Author Share Posted August 20, 2012 Good to see that everyone enjoyed it. I think the 8 games was good too - I'm always up for a retro game, so it could go 52 weeks and I'd be happy but I do realise that it can drag on a bit for some. 8 Games seems about right - so maybe 3 MGL's a year of 8 games instead of 2 MGL's of 12 games. Gives people a chance to sit out for a MGL if they want and it's still not too long until the next one starts. I'll discuss with the other guys who have run MGL's shortly - but I think we'll give it a 2 month break, and kick off the next MGL around Oct 21 or so - but we'll let everyone know in advance. This would mean the next MGL would finish a week or two before the Xmas break if we stick to 8 games. Anyway, I'll post a thread as soon as we know. I think the plan is to have something in between the MGL's for those of us that can't get enough Maming. The Kong Off at this point will stay a yearly event I believe, so we'll be looking at running something in maybe a month or so - again, I want to consult the guys who have run MGL's before for their input on what might be a good event to run, again I'll post a thread letting everyone know. I enjoyed running MGL XV and look forward to helping out again in the future :) Looking forward to everyone joining in in future comps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Welll done to the podium getters, some massive scores and as always controversies,arguments, and great game playing, all hallmarks of MGL :) I've been a bit obsessed with online Console gaming lately, has really taken over for the time being, but I hope by MGL 16 I'll be a bit more Arcade focused again and play in more games. I think the 8 games was a good change of format, short and sweet. Well done to Rob Macauley again, setting a new standard in MGL, and driving others on to greater scoring.

RMacauley Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Well done to Rob Macauley again, setting a new standard in MGL, and driving others on to greater scoring. Thanks Jamma and everyone else who posted congrats. I said this after MGL 14 and I'll say it again. I've been very lucky with the games that have come up. If it was MGL 13 I wouldn't have made the top 5 due to game selection. For example I played some Crush Roller last night. Best score 7K. My time will come where I'll get owned big time. John, You've done an amazing job running this MGL even surviving "Joystickgate." I tip my lid to you sir. Bring on MGL 16. Nobody's done a three peat yet. That's a challenge in itself. Cheers Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the randomizer has been modified so that this game never comes up again.... what a horrible horrible game :lol There is a trick/skill to getting points on this one, I've seen it don't by INP but still can't do it myself :redface Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OOO Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Congratulations to the top 5 in MGLXV. I have updated the virtual trophies for the Top 3, and congrats to John on getting your first trophy!

John73 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thanks for doing the MGL trophies OOO :) Hopefully Rob & Spartan see them. Thanks also for the other work on the medals for the leaderboard, looks pretty good I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kane Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thanks also for the other work on the medals for the leaderboard, looks pretty good I think. Yeah, I like the medals too, I managed to snag one at least. Do you think Rob got enough of them, lol. I don't mind Rob winning at all, he certainly deserves it, but nonetheless I think next MGL's theme should be "Games that Rob sucks at". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we could pick through the games when they come up to see if Rob has his name listed on Twin Galaxies, trouble is that his name is listed on so many game :lol Rob really did pull a Michael Phelps on us all :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
