I agree there could be lots of fun to be had but making a ref watch an 8 hour video of a still screen while the player got some Zzzs probably would have compelled refs to put a limit. :) So in the absence of such a limit, I guess the break takers didn't push it to danger territory

I think the pausing may be less of a grey area in terms of how it was treated on consoles where there is a kind of pause to engage gameplay after losing a life or in this case destroying the bad guy. Check out the referee note on Yars Revenge for example:The game pauses everytime you destroy an enemy.

There is no award/credit calculation for the actual disputes themselves.What happens is if a dispute is accepted, and the score is a TGSAP score, then all the voting awards that took place on the TGSAP score itself essentially get reversed - with those who voted to accept the score originally losing

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

Yes, sometimes it's not always possible to fully lay out the remedy in the dispute thread where the issue is about alignment between performances and appropriate tracks rather than, say, impossible scores where the remedy is straight removal.EDIT: Okay, I forgot in this case the remedy is laid out

@Snowflake So the suggestion here is to remove the disc speed rule? Just making sure I understand exactly what is being asked.Is there a preferred wording?

Tournament System Announcement/Update
Hello Community!Some of you might have noticed that our tournament system is now accessible. This was by no means an intentional launch.Overzealous engineers activated the tournament system to do some in house testing and didn’t think about the fact that everyone else would see it as well.
