EAB/Lemon Super League 2017: Round 14 - Monster Business

[vagrant]

The mighty Rexsu returns, hello there sir!
I'm starting to feel bad for Lemon.. next year's EAB lineup is looking rather formidable

Btw Stingray has already(!) updated the whd slave to 1.4 if anyone wants to grab the latest version

[el_pasi]

167,968

Have to try that v1.4 soon, this is scored with v1.2 install.

[rexsu]

Thank you buddies for the compliments

To celebrate this "event", here a new score:
470,802 (410,802 x 60,000)
If you lose your concentration or you get angry, you can quickly lose a lot of lives!

Qwak-tastic score rexsu.

Good to have you back. Despite my sudden loss of points.

[john4p]

Now I remember why I surrendered rather quickly in 2009&10.
But next season I won't be a poor sport and give my best regardless if rexsu will be unbeatable again.

[rexsu]

I'm no better than you, there are very good players in this contest and I was defeated many times
I think it depends on the type of game, the pleasure we have to play on a game or the time we can devote to it.

The score for Monsters Business can easily be beaten, I lost lot of lives.

[john4p]

There have been a couple of games where it was nigh impossible to beat you, but I agree you're not unbeatable if we have some luck with the games selection.
Should be a very interesting season next year if ED, liviux, LinesMachine, Biscuit and you give their best.

WHDLoad-slave v1.4 seems to be working well.

Where about can you get 1.4?
http://whdload.de still has 1.3 as latest

[el_pasi]

@MikeyG: I downloaded it from Retroplay's WHD uploads:

http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=61028

I just checked whdload.de and there is v1.4 too:

"2017-11-17 fixed: Monster Business (Eclipse) game always restarted from last played level after game over, fixed"

[MikeyG]

Thanks El_pasi. I had to clear my browser cache and now see it. That was fixed pretty fast by StingRay.

[lifeschool]

Thanks El_pasi. I just downloaded 1.4 in case it has any other major fixes, but for some reason, the 1.2 slave I have seems to still work fine. I wonder if I could copy my scores to the new slave - cant see why not.

Dont forget everyone, John has opened up a new thread all about the new compo updates you could choose. Please consider these options, as a lot of time went in to try to make the compo more interesting and hopefully fun for everyone.

John4p - When you said you were hoping to bring back the big players for next year, I didnt realise you'd wheel in a huge canon like rexsu. I might have to ask longplay master Hipoonious if he would be like to play. Although, with those Titans fighting, it would mean the season is over for the rest of us.

[liviux76]

I've finally found an hour to play this game... I enjoyed it!
This is my best so far, not too much but hopefully I will find some more time to improve it:

My pleasure. Fixed it immediately after I saw the bug report on Mantis.

I did not say that I will play all rounds next year
Nevertheless I will try to be more regular than in recent years.

I suggested a proposal on another topic to limit the impact of "Titans".

Yes, then reel in Stimraug & Robo-Sparkle and the circle will be complete
And tbh, in this company I'd consider myself more a tugboat then a titan

Monster Business is one of my favourite games, and have finished it many times with no cheats. The longplay was created using many savestates though, which is of course cheating. But I'm using these to make better looking videos

I am pretty good at this game. But not THAT good as shown in the longplay

Not entirely my game, but with reasonable effort you can get somewhere. No further time to play it.

You know hipoonios, I have been watching and enjoying your longplays for many years now.. I was convinced that you were either a warlock.. or possibly the lawnmower man.
Thank you for confirming that you are indeed human
