True, in mihcael's case he pointed it out but I do see your point now. You can't verify it, simple as that. You have to be able to trust people who enter and I think everyone who's entered in both rounds so far has done so in the right spirit. But as you say no-one can actually prove when these scores were achieved, but if I went around asking for it to be proved 100% we wouldn't have a competition in the first place.

However, we shouldn't spend too much time discussing about it. Competitions are for fun and let them be it

The game loops from Level 75, so get that far and have some decent weaponry (I prefer the plasma) and it should be easy going

Saying that if I haven't got a decent amount of money or weapon by tyhe first shop I escape the game and start again!


Is that cheating?

Oh yeah, Bippster started to talk about cheatin' and I've remembered I was suppose to post some tips and tricks which I've copied yesterday from my Amy's HD...
Quote:
1. Catching a skull will add to the chances that extra life and cash multiplyer bonuses appear.

2. By shooting the hurry-up ship, you can collect the rank marking that you are missing.

3. When a smart bomb have exploded and the gems are falling. You can collect them by holding down the joystick.

4. If you have a multiply when entering the meteor-storm, you may get alot of points.

5. Catching a warp icon in an alien stage with a bonus level will give you a perfect score.

6. Red, Green and Blue skulls will give you a very good weapon. Full fire power and the best ship speed.

7. When a hurry-up ship have appeared 8 times. A money ship will appear. Shooting this ship can give you alot of money.

8. If you have a weapon type, and catch the same weapon, you will get more firepower.

9. Completing the Meteor-storm will give you 100,000 points and 1,000 in cash. And if you make through the meteorstorm accelerated (button down) you gain $2500!

10. You can figure out what skull you have not taken by looking at the colour of the meteors in the meteor storm.

11. If you have caught 2 aliens and the scope is active. You can get alot of points by the aliens off the screen.

12. If you have the rank of Admiral and you buy more rank markings, you will get 1,000,000.

13. Having a multiply active when completing the game will give you alot of points.

14. If you have all the rank markings for a new rank, and then buy more rank markings, you will instead buy a new rank.

P.S to anyone. Game Secret 13 seems to be impossible, you would have to get the bonus multipler on level 74 (Bonus Level) and keep it during the whole level, and the kill the level 75 beastie in record time. And that would have to be quick, though i did notice muliplyers do stay longer as each round of 75 starts again...
Enjoy and have a progressive play!
