The Knockout 2021/22: Quarter Final - Super Hang-On





Super Hang-On [lemon] [hol]

Welcome to the quarter finals. You need to finish in the top two positions of your group to continue. Maybe try to do it before Xmas dinner.

The 6 players that go forward will be seeded and randomly paired off using a key letter (the first letter of the 2nd placed player's name in Group C). Group winners must face a runner up from a different group.

Round Ends: 23:59 (UK Time) on Saturday 25th December 2021

Rules:
  • Get the best score you can, during this round.
  • Post screenshots of your score in this thread, and write the score nearby.
  • Scores to be achieved without save-states, trainers, passwords, and cheats.
  • No continues or infinite score leeching.
  • Full rules and info are HERE.
Special Rules:

Good score, Biscuit
After many, many attempts my best score is only:

Probably have no time to try again before deadline.

Good job you're great at the game then. Looks like I got lucky with the groups.

I'm off to get big food.

Well played everyone. That's not as easy as some people make it look.

As per the rules: 'The 6 players that go forward will be seeded and randomly paired off using a key letter (the first letter of the 2nd placed player's name in Group C). Group winners must face a runner up from a different group.'

There are only two possible configurations for the semi final matches.

1)
Winner A vs Runner-Up B
Winner B vs Runner-Up C
Winner C vs Runner-Up A

2)
Winner A vs Runner-Up C
Winner B vs Runner-Up A
Winner C vs Runner-Up B

Biscuit finished 2nd in Group C. Key letter is B = 2. It's an even number so we use configuration 2. And that means my own name has totally screwed me over. Who came up with this nonsense!

Stevengton vs Biscuit
lifeschool vs capehorn
Girolamo85 vs john4p
