Aart is a grandmaster on Pac-Man games:

He is one of the few 900K+ players on Ms. Pac-Man and holds the world record on MAME.
He holds the world record on Pac-Man Plus.
He was two lives (180 points) short of a perfect Pac-Man on default settings.

The fact that he only has 1.5 million on this game surprises me.

His replay can be found at MAME Action Replay Page (marpirc.net).

Where is the evidence that this is an invalid score? Is it the INP itself?
A better description is required for this dispute to be taken seriously.

I believe Evan opened the dispute to request TG add the inp file for viewing. Not because there is an issue with the score.

It was a post a while back, but I believe TG outlined opening a dispute as the method of requesting the inp file.

This has been done for a number of scores in this way, though this one seems to be sitting longer than usual.

Surely there must be a better way to be able to add evidence than to open a dispute.

Just my two cents.

I brought this up years ago. Jace said this is the best way and only way to add evidence to older scores. So someone could dispute their own score to add permanent evidence.

INP HAS BEEN ADDED. Thank you.
