DKong Posted June 21, 2010 Author Share Posted June 21, 2010 Current Ladder after Game 4. No huge gaps between placings but a huge gap between first and last. Taverner set as the favourite after 4 games, although Jammasized closing and I would also have a few dollars on SectionZ as bit of mover towards the top placings.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taverner Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Was definitely expecting to be at the other end of the table at this point but playing my first MGL and with a cabinet that's only a few months old I'm probably putting more time into these games then a grown man should :laugh:. Still predicting a mid season sky dive though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKong Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 Two games to go and nothing separating top three spots :birthday1: ( it just looked like fireworks :p) Who will be the next MGL champ Maybe someone should run a book on it :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 The smart money has got to be on Rat eh! 9 points clear of 2nd, 11 points clear of 3rd, and a classic like this comes up - Rat's too good an all-rounder not to also have the skillz here. I'll still be giving it a damn good try though. Galaxian was a turning point for the top three placings. Love the MGL :) Without it my cab would just be playing NBA Jam and Kung Fu Master most of the time (made floor 4 the other day, oo-rah) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taverner Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Yep never played new rally x before so not likely to make a late charge, still I'll be well happy if I can hold on for 3rd :D and definitely an MGL convert now played some great games, classic and otherwise, that I would have just kept scrolling past otherwise. Time Pilot 84 was probably a favourite for me though going back and really putting some effort into Slap Fight, which I had played a lot as a kid (cause it was a 20c cheapy) but was never any good at, was also great fun. Another few MGLs though and I think I'll have to switch the P1 button 1 with the P2 button 6 cause I am soo not light on them :) still at that rate I'm sorted for a few years before I have to dig down the back of the couch for enough money to get a few replacments.

Love the MGL :) Without it my cab would just be playing NBA Jam and Kung Fu Master most of the time (made floor 4 the other day, oo-rah) To be honest I have no idea how good Rat is at Rally X, in all our years of gaming MAMEing and now MGLing, I have never seen him play this game. His quietness early in this game raises some suspicions though, either he is sitting back laughing or trying damn hard to get a good score, hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 His quietness is due to being away at work..............home now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKong Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 MGL XI is over Congratulations to Rat for winning :038: and congratulations to Taverner and Jammasized for finishing 2nd and 3rd respectively It was a very close finish in the last few games , which put the top three places up for grabs going into the last couple of games. Great to see so many new people playing and think we had one of the best turnouts for an MGL overall. Top three places. 1. Rat 176 points ( 1 win) 2. Taverner 172 points ( 2 Wins) 3. Jammasized 163 points (2 wins) Guys I will get a trophy out to you soon, just send me your address ( might be after MM ) Cheers and thanks everyone for contributing Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Moderator Foot Posted August 16, 2010 Super Moderator Share Posted August 16, 2010 Well done guys, top effort! :023: Thanks to DK for running it also :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cartman.tmw Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Well done Rat and everyone else that played. Thanks for running everything so well DK - had a great time playing a whole bunch of games I'd never heard of before (most are staying on my favs list for practise if they ever come up in another comp). Just went back for a game of SF2 as a celebration - hasn't been seen on my arcade for 3 months until now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taverner Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Wo Hoo :D Congrats Rat on the win and everyone for playing (and DK running it), was a close comp in the end. Gonna have to try to get my head around the maze and early platform games for the next MGL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rat Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Thanks :) I agree it was a fun MGL, I really enjoyed most of the games, and the competition was close all the way through. Great stuff :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameroom Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I enjoyed my first MGL. :D Even though I am shit at most of the games, it's really good to find out how shit I really am :rolleyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Well done Rat, a well deserved win :038: Didn't get a chance to play this game again since mid last week, been enjoyin the sun, sand and surf of far northern NSW and QLD too much :D Looking at the final results tonight, don't reckon I would have got near those big top scores on this game to make a diff anyway... I'm happy with a podium :) Had a ball again this MGL, and played a lot of new games as well as some old faves. Thanks Dkong for running anoher great comp. From talking to Dkong I think there will now be a break until another MGL, but there will be another Mame comp starting up over at the xxxx-1-com site in about a month or so. It will be a 'Golden Era' comp 1979-1983 games only, if anyone is keen PM me and I'll let you know when it's calling for nominations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spl Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Congrats Rat. Unfortunately I could not participate as much I would have liked this MGL due to lack of time/work, but I really enjoyed trying all the games and playing some stuff I've never tried before. Thanks for DKong for putting it on and I'll try to be a bit more active next MGL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kane Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 A very tough tourney this time around, a lot of massive scores came out, well done to all participant. My favourite game would have been Galaxian. Also liked Pandora's, Choplifter and Mr Do!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Fellow keen MGL'ers To fill the void until there's another MGL, over at the xxxx-1.com site (a site dedicated to modding cabs) Tournament 4 is now calling for nominations. The format will be Classic Era games only, 1979-1983. Site is here: http://www.xxxx-in-1.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=23 Hope to see you over there :) Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
