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

It's all about compromise ... otherwise any two Gamers would get nowhere trying to fulfill this task.Totally agree: Pausing is a grey area. I'm just thinking ... 4.2 Mill will be extremely difficult to beat without having that same availability ... however, I'll try to beat 4.2 Million without

Exactly the quality of response I would expect, if I were to expect any response at all. Not even an attempt to address my point about the track's being garbage. Don't you realise that's why the new track had to be created? No, of course you don't. You think adjudicators made
Snowflake commented on blog entry Astrosmash scores MUST be removed and moved in Intellivision Master
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

Ok with this new information ... the players that placed 1 through 5 were able to submit a screenshot; and there obviously were no rules re: pausing. Also, the rules state "choose your own level - even 'easiest level' if you like". It would make no sense for them to submit a score

Al do you have a list of all games were "default" was changed to disc speed? also do you have a list of specific titles youd like to look at

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

I think we can keep up.I do agree on 'fixing' Astrosmash with the caveat to work with you to amend descriptions of rules for other titles. There are not that many in this category (Mattel-made games for which Disc, Button 1, Button 2 and Button 3 are the exact same game except Disc level is

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?

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

Huge Progress Reverse Engineering Dragster, But Need A Break.
