Points [Level 1-1]
WolfMame version	190
Score Track	https://www.twingalaxies.com/scores.php?scores=37975
Rules	ROMSet: DKong Lives: 3 Bonus life: 7000 Special Rules: This variation is for maximum points on the first girder stage [1-1]. The score must be achieved on the first life. Any means of gaining points are acceptable, but the level must be successfully completed. After achieving a score on level 1-1 the rest of the player's lives must be spent and then initials must be entered as usual. Failure to do so will result in your submission being disqualified.
Submission Message	I only played this out of both fun and respect for the DK players, and I managed to top my PB without hardly any practice. I was very lucky, I have to suggest. Maybe you top guys are too?? :D If you deny the rainbow rom, which is still a dkong rom, I will be invoking every discriminatory method available. :) I'm a nobody, here. Let it be. It's all I have. As a side note, "WOOHOO!!!!!!" Lmao! It's fun, still, right? https://www.twingalaxies.com/images/...fb0f5f4283.jpg

played fine on my regular rom.

It appears that the uploaded video was created via playback of an INP file using a nonstandard romset.

Was that same romset also used to actually play the game?

"dkong"

Trying to remember what I did to get the rainbow colours, maybe added a file?
Long time ago.

You can inspect the innards...

Sorry, yes, the same rom was used to play and record. I only have the one "dkong" rom.

My guess is that you're using the DK Rainbow ROM Hack, created by Sock Master back in 2015 (see below):

I am not comfortable voting either way on this submission.

The actual gameplay may be unaffected, but I personally require the unmodified US Set 1 romset.

I understand. However I'm not that serious about it. Apart from those new colours, it is exactly the same in every way.
If it gets rejected, I won't be bothered, but I actually think it should stay. It's not a charrenging score. Just for fun.
Are you going to ruin my fun, Mr Killjoy?? ;)
It was short lived !
Lets see what others say...

If it's not the legit dkong rom then this should be rejected pure and simple.

Quite the contrary, I encourage you to have more fun at my expense.

Submit an Out Run score (or time) that knocks me from the #1 spot.

You might be just the person to keep me humble, given that racing games seem to be in your proverbial wheelhouse.

I would watch with great interest.
