John73 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Nice job. Going after the Arcade high - so you have managed to track down a dedicated cab then ? I want to knock off the the arcade high score using Mame first, then I'll look at a dedicated cab. Got some competition though, Charlie D Wehner (currently 2nd in Mame) is back playing on an arcade machine, he's over 2,000,000 already :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW does the TG scores with original PCB's mean you have to play with the same/original joysticks and buttons that came with the game :unsure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea about the TG rules, my understanding which could be wrong, is that you could use a home made set up as long as it's an original PCB inside it :unsure I'd really like to have a go on an original machine, I have a feeling that I won't convert over to the joystick as well as I play using a keyboard for some reason.

I think it would depend on the game, something like Donkey Kong they would expect it done on all original hardware, but lesser known games I think they would be less strict on it.

Yeah, DK is very strict these days for dedicate cab's. However I think they are a bit looser on requirements for other games. For example, the Aussie guy who got the Galaga high score last year didn't do it on an original cab, he just had the PCB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 2,054,656 Well that is the first step, get over 2,000,000 :) Recorded this game and I'll be submitting it to TG later tonight probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andykmv Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 love this thread :cool: its a great idea as we can also see what games have been played. :D you coulld also add in the number of times nominated or number of times played in the mgl! here's a thought! convert it to a table, and add another column for the lowest score too! at least that'll give me a chance of getting my name up there somewhere :lol:lol:lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John73 Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Rumor has it that Charlie Werner has beaten this score already on his real Arcade machine - possibly even beaten the WR of 2.4Mil :o I've got some practicing to do for the rest of the holidays :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKong Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 A Hiscore knocked off think it was mine :( A new Time Pilot AA High score for RMacauley, now added the the High Scores Table Think I see a few of my records tumbling with some of the newer players , some really good players joining in lately :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
general_grievous Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Can we have other games on there, i have won 39 games on mortal kombat 2 in a row? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Can we have other games on there, i have won 39 games on mortal kombat 2 in a row? This scoreboard AFAIK is just for games that have been played in the MGL's. I was never a MK player, so never looked into what records are tracked by TwinGalaxies, maybe you could look into that :) Don't think this scoreboard has been updated in a while, will try and get around to it when MGL 15 finishes in a weeks time.

troyus Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Can we have other games on there, i have won 39 games on mortal kombat 2 in a row? I dont think vs games can be added to any lists. Way too easy to fake and no equal way to gauge players against others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit to being a bit slack updating these records from about MGL14... I think Time Pilot in MGL14 was the last score I updated. But yeah, these are just MGL records, but people can post better scores for anything they see listed here though, is how we approached it in the past. Gives punters some scores to tilt their hats at, while MGL isn't on. Just play at Mame default dips and you're sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did try updating it before MGL15 kicked off but for some reason I have troubles occasionally editing posts, go into edit, make changes, try to save and it just times out - gave up after a couple of attempts. Could be the time of night and to many people on AA causing a slow response or could just be my internet which drives me bonkers at times. Will see if I can have a look at it next weekend unless you want to jump in and do it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Remaining scores for MGL XIV and for MGL XV (Up to game 7) have now been added along with MGL XIV & XV tournament winners. There is going to be the usual break between MGL XV & XVI (time to be worked out in the coming weeks), anyone who hasn't had enough MGLing, have a look through the high scores and feel free to knock off a high score or two :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John73 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Scores from MGL17 have now been added/updated. Don't forget you can knock off any of these scores at any time, just post a pic of your score and it will be updated - it may be an idea to also PM me if you do want a scored added in case I miss your post in here.

RMacauley Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Might need to do another edit methinks. I haven't done a Bjorn Borg and won 5 in a row yet. The list reads: MGL XIV RMacauley MGL XV RMacauley MGL XVI RMacauley MGL XVII RMacauley MGL XVI RMacauley MGL XVI. So nice I won it twice. :lol There's 2 scores for Pandora's Palace as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMacauley Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Nice work :) So, do you get out much? :D I'm first to admit I have no life. What is this outside world I hear of? If any MGL player is interested I crashed and burned in the current MARP knockout comp. 32 go to the head to head round. I finished 34th and was the only Australian player (out of 3) NOT to qualify for the next round. And some people around here think I'M too serious. Get a load of these guys and thank your lucky stars they aren't playing in an MGL any time soon. Drunken rant over. As I crack another Guinness I know I may regret this post in the morning but I'll post it anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
