Although... I personally think that the rules should be adjustable on a 'per-game' basis. Some games need additional rules, some don't.

Tho, could you PLEASE rethink this minor thing about score hogging in varius games (Turrican2 bees not Agony's boss )? PRITTI PRIZZ!

In Turrican 2 can you literally leave the player still and rack up points?

Well maybe it needs to be assessed on a 'per-game' basis then

Besides, just checked:
- the clock is ticking
- all you can buildup there, is about 10k-20k points per wave of bees (I was too bored after the 2nd one and got about 32k up to this point, killing almost everyone from the beginning)
- the hive from which the bees flyout can easly be destroyed by accident
- the hive from which the bees flyout vanishes when you get your sorry ass killed by accident
- the "stand up and wave around your fire beam" tactic doesn't work (you'll better aim at the bees or you find yourself surrounded fast

Hey, have you checked the Ineligible Games thread? Turrican 2's not listed there. You can stop going on about it now.

Agony may be a different kettle of fish though, if you could post exactly in detail what the problem is and how it occurs in that thread then I'll take a good look at it

Agony has a real bug that can easly be used and not so easly prooven :/
The end boss of level 1 shoots at us, and those shots never end, see for yourself

That pretty much rules Agony out then doesn't it? Never mind, it's not even very good anyway

Nice score KG, but maybe in the future you should enter "KG" or something for your scores instead


Oh and I'm glad continue's aren't allowed in deluxe galaga.. much more fun

And another quick reminder (as if you could forget, eh?) this is the last day of this round so if anyone else wants to enter now's definitely the time to do it

Yeah but I play it with my brother, it's what we've always done. And he doesn't know me as KG (surprisingly).

Slam Tilt is a rarity though, it's one of the games I actually play with my bro, the next round will probably be a different matter

EDIT: cheers for doing the ongoing table, I'd not seen it before. Gives me something to aim for later when I give it another go.

You better hurry up then

Couple of points though:

1. You said you weren't going to play it again
2. I OWE YOU A DRINK!
