Could the rules for the MAME game "Guardians / Denjin Makai II" be updated to reflect the knowledge in newer MAME versions, please. The "Unknown" DIP switch was identified as the "Bonus Life" DIP switch in the 0.206 release and the "Unknown: Off" setting is the same as "Bonus Life: 30000" in newer versions.

- 0.206: caius and The Dumping Union added clone Guardians / Denjin Makai II (P0-113A PCB). Changed parent description to 'Guardians / Denjin Makai II (P-FG01-1 PCB)'.

Before:

Unknown: Off

After:

Bonus Life: 30000. Note: for MAME 0.205 and prior this setting was known as "Unknown" and the value "Off" matches this rule.

Thanks. :D

Just stumbled on a minor confusion with Pac-Attack on the Gameboy: https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/pac-attack/game-boy-game-boy-color/ . Each of the tracks begins with the indication "Normal - ". Could you adjust these to clarify they are "Normal Mode - ", please, to match the selection option within the game. The second portion (Easy/Normal/Hard/Hyper) is the difficulty and matches the selection process of the game.

@admin staff

Admin can you put this in ADDITTIONAL INFO -> " The result will be after the END OF THE JUMP not the final result."

This will solve the problem for future Biggest Jump on one attempt submissions.

Twin Galaxies members did not know that the game programming that the in game timer sometimes will add .01 in the final result that resulted in issues & confusion with Twin Galaxies members either voted no, were undecided or some voted yes with my explanation.

It is going on almost a month. Here are the links to the 4 submissions.

This will not be happening. This is specifically prohibited so that members concern themselves with their own voting determinations and not what a crowd may or may not be doing.

1. Please explain why this is denied?

It is not a track rule, clearly it is just information to help Twin Galaxies members, nothing more.

Would you like me to reword it differently?

You are requesting to change the rules on an already established track that contains adjudicated scores. You are not just "adding information" you are requesting a change that specifically impacts how a submitted score my be adjudicated, therefore any other following submitted scores will be judged by a slightly different criteria than the current scores on the track.

The request is denied.

If you want tracks with the new specification you are requesting, you can establish new tracks with that criteria.

JJT has highlighted the "Blue Moon Bay" tracks on Gran Turismo 7 are actually "Blue Moon Bay Speedway". Could the tracks be updated with the Speedway appended to the name, please: https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/gran-turismo-7/playstation4/?track=Blue%20Moon%20Bay%20- . Unfortunately, they all have submissions against them already, so I am unable to correct.

Additionally, on the track at https://www.twingalaxies.com/game/gran-turismo-7/playstation4/world-circuits-asia-oceania-tsukuba-circuit-japanese-fr-challenge-450-tsukuba-circuit-race-2-laps-time/ could the "Race 2 Laps" near the end be changed to read "Race 3 Laps", thanks. :D

Jace Hall & admin staff can you restore my credibility & submission pts back. Twin Galaxies web site error in restoring both my Credibility & submission points back to where it was before the ban.

@Jace">@Jace Hall

I have adjudicated over 40,000 plus video game submission for Twin Galaxies member players here since 2017 when I started doing them. I would appreciate that you restore my credibility and submission points back to what it was before the ban. Thank you and God bless you and your family and friends. This would be a first that a Twin Galaxies member player gets all his credibility & submission points removed after a ban.

JJT's points have been taken away. With all the adjudication and submissions he has done, can he really only have 1.07 on the expert skill index?

These aren’t scoreboard errors fellas. Use the Report Error option on the menu under Site Info.

Datagod yes he only has 1.07 ESI I’m pretty sure it said that before the ban.

I followed the link as instructed. This is where it lead me.
