At this point there’s no doubt admin has realized an argument was brought from another thread to scoreboard errors. When a scoreboard errors request is very much under debate can we get some feedback on the procedure that will be followed. This isn’t the first time jjt lost an argument and so cane here to try to change the rules. I’m done discussing ff this is a question about the future and procedure. Now that multiple arguments have resulted in requests to rule chsnges to support one side of the argument my wuestikms are

1. What is Admins feelings on using this thread to unilaterally overrule adjudication decisions by the community. That is to say is there any point even voting and commenting on submissions or can we just come here to request our desires overrule all prior decisions

2 what steps does admin take to verify the requests being made here are appropriate requests

3 what happens when an infinite loop occurs of requesting a change then requesting to revert the change then requesting the same change again? Has tg considered how they want to deal never ending requests to the same track. Not just when one person changes his mind but when multiple people disagree so keep on trying to change the rules to their liking

Man, I've already thrown one bull **** this week. Absolutely the correct call. Here I go again. I am pulling out an even bigger bull **** flag that this is not over. I bet if @admin staff went through this entire thread and deleted all posts regarding TFATF, I'd bet 10 pages will be wiped out.

Can we seriously just ban Fast and the Furious? Or move it to another thread to at least discuss this? I'd unsubscribe but I actually like to lost relevant changes when I find them.

this is where you and i only disagree slightly. i basically agree in princple, i'd go so far as to say you're morally right but factually wrong.

its their club, they can induct themselves and do as they please. heck they can have the worlds most famous cheater on their board and as their mascot. i agree all that is foolish

my concern isnt that they indcuted themselves or let billy break 4 of their 6 rules. my issues is they purposley mislead. you want some private club for you pals? go for it. you wanna pretend its based on video game accomplishments, well thats a lie and indirectly is unfair to the rest of us

thats why i nominated you. if it was what they CLAIM it is, you'd be in. their refusal to accept you proves what a scam it is.

by all means, leave the first class in tact. let it stay around. they have that legal right. but just stop pretending to be about what they claim if they're not gonna let you in.

Not sure if this on TG's end or YouTube, but some of the older submissions that have YouTube links are not displaying them properly for some reason. You can't skip ahead or back, it's simply play or pause. I haven't seen one in a while, so I'm not sure if this happened with the new update or not. The display is also very small and flattened out.

Here is a link of one of my own scores showing what I mean.

Ya. Its been that way for a while now. Mine and others do the same thing. You must actually click the Youtube titles caption itself at the small display, and then it goes directly straight to Youtube's website, with no issues.

I think this track needs a time limit added to the rules. There are currently no submissions for this track. This is a boss fight that spawns an infinite amount of enemies and the boss attacks are very obvious and easy to avoid meaning you could leech enemies as long as you wanted while avoiding the boss. I feel setting a 10 minute time limit would be good from a competitive aspect because the rate the enemies spawn can be 1-5 at a time so some luck is required to keep your multiplier up while you wait for more enemies to appear or you attack the boss. Some leeching is going to happen no matter how this fight is played out, so instead of making it another leeching vs point pressing discussion, just put a time limit on it and the problem is solved. I'd also like to add that sometimes the boss will simply not be available for you to attack for a minute or so, but should easily be defeated within 10 minutes regardless.

Makes sense. Any comments from the track creators @Desidious and @fredb999 ?

Could we have an additional note added to the rules (perhaps under Special Rules) similar to the following:

Difficulty settings were relabeled at MAME version 0.144u7 - if using this or later versions, please select "Difficulty: 5"

Could we have a note added to all three tracks under this game entry along these lines...

"Scoring for this track is the sum of time remaining at the end of each COMPLETED act."

the pass fail track, as you know, for d&d has had multiple erros and changes. I submitted my score as 0 because at the time passes were interperted as zero. mid adjudication, pass was changed back to 100 -- aweomse, thx for the correction. even my pending score on the track itself was changed to say 100 (again thank you) but for the initial submission since i entered 0 upon acceptance it shows up as zero

Though I think this should be changed to 100, please advise if i need to resubmit since we're talking about a score itself and people did adjudicate my "0" as a "0" albeit at a time when "0" meant "pass" but now "100" means pass

The personal profile page updates the WR and ESI count properly once scores get approved, but the "member leaderboard" counter still does not update those two stats at all.
