Submission Message	Having trouble with the uploader, video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63zVrM1-nG8 This score was performed at Funspot in New Hampshire in November 2014. There were multiple witnesses to the performance, which has also been verified at Aurcade. .Attachment 1637

I followed the instructions I received in the email for creating a joint account, but the name in the subject doesn't match the way the names are entered in the profile. To make it explicitly clear the players are Brendan O'Dowd and Michael Sao Pedro.

As long as no one familiar with the game objects to something in the game play I will accept this submission.

Yup, I was there during this performance, glad to see it finally appear here at TG. Good work guys!

Great game. Great run! I need to find one of those machines locally. Haven't seen one in ages.

Great game.accepted

Nice work Brendan Pedro

Not sure how close any of these are to you but there's a list at Aurcade: http://aurcade.com/games/view.aspx?id=14

Need to raise a red flag here (or at least a yellow one): These guys are using secret codes to activate special weapons at the beginning of each stage. The weapons themselves are not always useful, but you get a full 64 seconds of timer to use them, which can be easily maintained by collecting other weapons to boost the clock. This is a huge help, as normally the weapon clock runs low by the time you reach the boss.

The link below describes how to do this:

Not sure if this is an accepted practice among players of this game or not. I've seen this before on MARP, and there's nothing in the rules that specifically bans this stuff, but in general TG doesn't allow the use of secret codes of any kind.

Not sure which way to vote on this. Let's discuss!

I'll have to wait and see what all is said about the codes before I vote. Also, the system certainly is not setup for 2 player teams or even 3 or 4 player teams but I wish it was. We had to use both of our last names when submitting our score. It works but a first and last name for each player would be much better before a lot of other teams create accounts and then it becomes a bigger mess.
