Over the next few days I will have more time to focus on some TG daily items.1.) Dispute claims2.) FPGA as a platform3.) Streaming more from the Video tape submission archives @admin staff is always looking at the various bugs/site issues so I'm not focused on that - however if you have some significant ...
Just a friendly reminder to always prepare as best you can before gaming...
Fun times ahead... more testing to do....
I heard back from the engineering team that we may be getting milliseconds added to the tg video player within the next couple weeks.We will see how it goes, but hopefully it will be one more additional tool available to the support community's ability to consistently examine submissions..Hope ...
We have made some significant changes on the backend and have updated the website.Please take a look around and see if anything new that used to work no longer works. If you find anything please let me know in the comments associated with this post. You may also notice some speed increases in certain ...

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 ...
Apologies for the longer than desired down time.It was a little more challenging than anticipated to reconnect all the pipes and wires. :)We still are not finished and will be working on getting everything smooth and relatively bug free again over the next few days but most of the heavy back end lifting ...

Yesterday...Just wanted the community to know, that while I tend to not speak much about all the things that I am doing, that does not mean that I have not been working step-by-step for Twin Galaxies to grow and be able to provide more opportunities for expression and recognition of video game activity ...

With so many crazy things going on in the world right now, the pervasive feeling of uncertainty can sometimes become very stressful for many.Just wanted to drop a quick personal note to send some positive vibes, and to wish safety and good health to everyone in the Twin Galaxies community.Please ...
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...

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 ...
