MGL 24 - Scoreboard [8 of 8 Games Completed]


Recommended Posts

Are you comparing the quality of my opinions to Gorf? we could coin a new phrase from that "Don't mind him he's just speaking a load of Gorf" :lol or do you wrongly assume that most old games that are not well known are of poor quality such as Gorf?

After Game 5, the table is shaking and still settling in ... :048:

 

DonPedro ups from 24th to 22nd place, Fire_Power from 22nd to 19th, rusty_dagger 19th to 18th, SpudJones an impressive leap from 17th to 13th place ... :038:,

Pelly from 9th to 8th, kane 8th to 7th, outrun86 from 6th to 5th, and Brad winning Game 5 jumps from 4th to 2nd place, just behind the leader ...

It's coming down to the short end of the wick on the burning candle ... 3 weeks and 3 games to go ... who can make the top 20, better still the top 10, or maybe even higher ...

It's all to play for in MGL 24 ... give it your best shot, otherwise somebody else will!

I've given up hope for a top 10 finish in this MGL.

 

I am not sure why? :unsure ... after 6 you are in 13th spot, just 36 points outside the top 10.

You have put up no scores for Games 7 and 8 yet ... :cool: ... so what are the raised hands for?

I am not dedicating the time I need to, to any games. And looking at scores already achieved on the last two games I don't think I will do enough. I will try, but I don't think I will get there.

 

Hyper Olympics was my chance to move up the ladder I think but I underachieved but the game did give me blisters. My old hands/fingers/arms don't hold up like they used to.

After Game 7, it's looking like this ...

 

DonPedro moves up from 23rd to 22nd place, John73 nails Game 7 and jumps from 20th to 12th place ... :119:... :038:

Nicko71 from 17th to 14th, DKong from 11th to 10th, Jammasized 10th to 8th, CrazyKongFan from 6th to 4th and RMacauley from 4th to 3rd ...

1 game to go, 7 days to go and all to play for ... a top 20 finish is a great effort and a top 10 is awesome ...

 

:)

 

Just noticed: the closest score after 7 is DKong on 202.36 vs Rat on 202.06. That's just 0.3 points difference ... who wins that one? ... Game 8 to find out ...

After 66 days of classic arcade gaming, MGL 24 has now come to a close.

 

The final standings are below:

CONGRATULATIONS to the Top 10 in MGL 24 and the next 10 places who improved their scores and made it very competitive for the whole field.

From 11th to 34th place I hope you enjoyed playing the games and the friendship over the forum. A total mystery of games this was, no nominations and plenty of gusto!

 

Congratulations to Barra on his 2nd MGL win.

His two game wins and very strong competition from the player field made it go all the way over 66 days down to the last game on the last day!

It was a tremendous battle for the title and Brad played brilliantly for 2nd place.

RMacauley played strongly and placed very well in most of the games for a podium finish 3rd place.

outrun86 follows his runner up placing in the last MGL with a very fine 4th place.

It was great to have CrazyKongFan join in for his first MGL and he did extremely well with 5th place.

DKong finished in 7th place by just 1.12 points! His great score in Game 8 Raiden was just was too good and sealed it.

Pelly takes 8th place with his best percentage scores in Gorf and Raiden, both shooters.

Rat takes 9th place even though he forgot to post a Frogger score ... :rolleyes

kane registers a score for Raiden on the last day and just makes the Top 10. That effort was very important too, as it means he has his 16th Top 10 result out of 17 MGLs … :038: ... :041:

 

With 8 games contested there were 6 different game winners … OOO, Barra, outrun86, Brad, Jammasized and John73.

Congratulations to the game winners too …

Well that was an interesting MGL 24 … we had two new games and nobody knew what games would be played, as there was no call for nominations.

The MGL will be back better than ever for MGL 25 - Arcade Patrol … starting on Friday 22-May-2015.

In the meantime you can recharge, polish your cab, fix the stick and buttons, or get a new cab or PC and enjoy your break. A quarter century of MGLs to come …

 

And another surprise is … I normally do not have a prize for the MGL winner, but thanks to MamePatrol’s generous offer (:038:) to print and pay for the cost of an excellent tee and delivery again,

I designed this gem for the MGL 24 winner (yes it will have your AA name on the back!) … Congratulations again Barra. Let’s see you wear this and post a victory photo on the forum!

Hope you all enjoyed the fun …

That T-Shirt is awesome @OOO, and thanks for putting the effort into making these comps such fun.

Looking forward to the next MGL.

Yep well done OOO for displaying MC MGL qualtity second to none, this comp has been growing from its humble beginnings.

Well done to all the participants we all make it, I agree so many games I would not even try and now go back to and keep trying.

 

All the participants deserve a pat on the back.

 

Keep playing and thanks again OOO.

Would have posted this sooner but I've had internet access issues.

 

Congrats to Barra and Brad. My scores were for the most part good but nowhere good enough to catch you guys. I'd tip my hat to you both but I'm not wearing one. :D

 

To OOO all I can say is well done on running yet another awesome MGL. I know you love to spur us all on to greater heights in our gaming endeavors but I'm sure I'm not the only one to say:

 

Play an entire MGL for once and show us how it's done for crying out loud!!!! :)

 

Well played to everyone who competed. We all do the best we can but hopefully have fun while we're doing it. To me that's what MGL is about.

 

Cheers

 

Rob
