I thought it was an exclusive but I was wrong!
For others, here's how to do it and the result:

Otherwise, good work for your new score capehorn
I know I can do better or the same thing (like malko) but I don't have the courage anymore.
The game is not that fun to replay after completed it.
Malko will be the only one to challenge your victory now or John4p the retired

[malko]

Ok, can't do any better ... 1'710'000
So, except if you (or somebody else) post a better score, looks like we have to share the 1st place capehorn

Round 6 will be Special Round: Year.

@capehorn&malko: As (co-)winners of Round 4 please choose one out of these years: 1987, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1994

[malko]

Let's go for : 1992

[capehorn]

Well done everyone. It was the spike section at the end that usually took some health from me.

How will the year vote work? We are doing three different years, or going to try to agree on a year between us?

[john4p]

^ The latter. One year must be chosen.

Not retired. Just couldn't find the time to give this a proper go.
But since I know Turrican 3 inside-out I'm going to use Round 5 to (mostly) play SotB.


Who would've thought 4 people would beat this game? Well done capehorn, malko, Provolik and rexsu!

In the end three managed to get to the end with 10 hit points left:

capehorn, malko and Provolik all get a well deserved GOLD medal for this.

In the team battle it was a clear victory for team EAB who takes the lead 3-2.

[capehorn]

I can't imagine we will have trouble picking a game from 1992, so let's make it unanimous.

1992 it is.

[john4p]

Thanks!

[rexsu]

Given my final ranking I should have done an another game
This season, the last hours have often been cruel for me

Finally beat the game (with zero health left):

Usually I don't watch longplays but for the graveyard-part I had a look how Laffer did it.
Now I'm set for the real deal: Beast II.

[malko]

well done John

[john4p]

Thanks mate.

I acknowledge though there's a world of difference in finishing this game with 0 compared to 10 health. But since the competition is over I'm content with having beat this.

[malko]

For the competition, I agree, but generally speaking, finishing a game is what counts
