It looks like we will be upgrading our server very soon for much increased performance so that will be good.We are trying to fix all the accumulation ...

We've been working behind the scenes trying to address various tech issues, and could use some feedback on these questions:1.) Have you recently been encountering the "site stalling" issue? If you dont know what it is, that's fine. If you do know and have not seen it lately, or have ...

Twin Galaxies is a place that should be for everyone in gaming. It should be safe and welcoming. While Twin Galaxies will absolutely continue to strongly enforce its policies that concern acceptable behavior on the site, the onus is also on all of us individually to continue to strive toward building ...

Should Twin Galaxies create a FPGA platform category, and then just have any game / platform EMU track that uses FPGA be created there? It would be pretty varied in terms of what gets listed but there would at least be a place for all FPGA EMU Games...Suggestions?The goal is to support FPGA but ...

This is called CHAMPION LEVEL CONCENTRATION...

I wonder if @lexmark felt a disturbance in the force...hmmmm......

There has been an ongoing bug with the site performance that we have not been able to track down. I'm hoping that collectively we all may be able to figure out the cause/conditions that set it off.The bug:At what appears to be random moments, the website stalls and takes a LONG time to load a page. ...

We are currently contemplating asking @admin staff TG develop and implement an automatic way for an INP file to to be broken up and displayed, so that inside a submission thread the relevant INP data can be processed and shown to adjudicators to help them make the best determinations they can.

We ...

Greeting's Community!With the combination of TGSAP alongside the community's ability to utilize the Dispute Claim Process (DCP) I would like to encourage adjudicators to feel a little more comfortable voting on MAME submissions that look to be completely in order but may not have yet had an ...

This original TG Stargate and Defender Tournament tracks have been modified to allow for Baiter-Hunting.

A new track has been created for competition without Baiter-Hunting for Stargate. Defender already had one created by the community.

Been thinking about the whole FPGA/EMU/Original platform intermix issue.It is my opinion that it is probably best for Twin Galaxies to keep all platforms separated in terms of leaderboard participation at this time.This means that things like FPGA will exist on their own hardware basis, and not be considered ...

I seem to remember someone figuring out a simplified TGSAP error rate to date based on looking at certain stats... Can anyone direct me to that post?

Hello all.Please don't be alarmed, as we are slowly rolling out some changes over the next coming week.You will notice that Twin Galaxies has a new dashboard-like front page as well as a HOME button.
