vodoo, on atari its called 'astroblast" on intell its called "astrosmash", same game, i dont know if there are minor tweaks though. an i believe tg has two tracks since you're right score goes down if you miss stuff, so one track is for peak score, another track is for final score
Snowflake commented on blog entry Astrosmash scores MUST be removed and moved in Intellivision Master
al i dont want my scores gone either but we have to be consitent. an even playing field is always needed regardless of how it affects us. fortunatley theres a solution that covers everything. two solutions really
1. split the track and move scores accordingly
2. make the rules such that all scores

sounds like something for a bounty!!!!
personal opinon:
i rememer playing this and noticing how slowly i was improving and then giving up, but consider this. if a game gave you 100 lives, by the time the game was over and you went through all 100 you'd be way better at the end of the

before my time, but i know atari 2600 had massivlye had changes for 1b -- and we cant just mass revert because some things might have truly been 1b.

fyi, to practice for my lode runner marathons i absolutley would play 3-6 hours a day, and then just lea ve the game paused and come back the next day. that way when i did the 12 hour score for real i had practice with all the levels at least.
if infinite pauses were allowed, oh man, play across
Snowflake commented on blog entry Astrosmash scores MUST be removed and moved in Intellivision Master
Thats' VERY interesting. i know lode runner has simliar pauses but the rules are after 10 seconds the guiness rules for breaks (same as marathon) kick in.
I know there was a lot of talk about todd's 100 hour journey escape as not being humanly possible. If ron allowed infinite breaks

Exactly the quality of response I would expect, if I were to expect any response at all. Not even an attempt to address my point about the track's being garbage. Don't you realise that's why the new track had to be created? No, of course you don't. You think adjudicators made
Snowflake commented on blog entry Astrosmash scores MUST be removed and moved in Intellivision Master
the pause is a much more complicated question unfortunately. Under any system, theres always rules violations that cant be caught. we know tg had global rules for breaks in marathons. so yes of course you're right if a player paused nooone would know, but if the player admitted to the pause the

Al do you have a list of all games were "default" was changed to disc speed? also do you have a list of specific titles youd like to look at

on and once this is flushed out i intend to make a forum post that links to this for more permanence. when the times comes to fix atari 5200, 400, and 2600 the stuff done here will help explain to people down the road why the current "default" settings on those systems need reexamination as

if we know what every score was played on, then sure, i dont care what the rules were originally were or might have been or whatever, i just care that everyone palys on the same rules. so yeah, if for example theres a game that was changed to disc speed and we know that everyone on that track used disc

jace, as we're talking about rules, history and getting things correct this isnt just opinion its a matter of accuracy. Does such a "request' require unanimous community input, or re you an admin able to look into this and determine the proper course?

@INt">@Intellivision Master i think i need an analogy to explain my stance, cause you're right, i do agree the astrosmash track needs changed as you say, so i can see it seem like i'm contradicitng myself when i say all or nothing. let me try to explain. A huge mistake, is obvious and can
