Points [TG Settings]
WolfMame version	106
Track	https://www.twingalaxies.com/scores.php?scores=11853
Rules	ROMSet: PuckMan Rack Test [Cheat]: Off Service Mode: Off Cabinet: Upright Lives: 5 Bonus Life: 10000 Difficulty: Normal Ghost Names: Normal 2x Speed Cheat: Disabled Special Rules: None Special Note: The Maximum score possible is 3,333,360.
Submission Message	Finally hit the first key. Decided to stop practicing the 3 ghost groupings on the first mazes and let the game get more interesting. Got some flow down after a bunch of false starts, and hit the first key. Interestingly, I discovered that just running for an energizer usually gets 3 ghosts to you at about the same time regardless of how tightly they are grouped via the T&Tunnel efforts.

Nice playing Mark! Wow, you are improving every time you play! I don't really group the technical way either. You probably have to do the technical grouping to achieve a perfect score, but that's a long way off for me at least. So, when the romset in the rules say PuckMan, that just means it's the parent rom and then we use the Midway version? I wasn't sure about this earlier.

Puckman is the original Japanese set & that's the set which must be used for this variation (not pacman).

Wrong ROM set used:
[CODE]Playing back previously recorded game pacman (Pac-Man (Midway)) [press return][/CODE**

Rejected from this variation.

Was supposed to look like:

Code:

Playing back previously recorded game pacman (Pac-Man (Midway)) [press return]

hmm, but when I tried to use the puckman rom in wolfmame 106 it said missing even though the rom is present. so there is no way to select it in the menu.

Then you have the wrong ROMs.
