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

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

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

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?
Al, i'm trying to think
Jace Hall commented on blog entry Submission accepted...and I lost 200 points? in Marco1019
There is no award/credit calculation for the actual disputes themselves.What happens is if a dispute is accepted, and the score is a TGSAP score, then all the voting awards that took place on the TGSAP score itself essentially get reversed - with those who voted to accept the score originally losing
