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?

Here are the Intellivision submission rules for TG/Snipercade - earliest snapshot is 2001 which addresses Rick's score - it requires players to submit on the easiest settings. Note that there is an "addendum" in 1999 so these rules date from at least that time, if not a few years earlier

skimmed comments might need to give a more detailed replay later, but i think part of the "different page" i better understand now, as two points that are both true, but get confused for arguing with each when its really just two different issues that sound simliar.

Al, i purposely tried not to speak for you by saying theres difference of opinoin, and this is one of them "we" are not asking that, you are. my request would be to revert it across the board. this track proves it was a mistake to change everyting to disc speed without proper reserach. now
