Ze_ro Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Important Note: This weeks competition is over and no further scores will be accepted. Welcome to the second High Score Club Variety Pack! Rules for this competition are a little different, so please read: This competition combines four games over a two week period. The deadline for posting times is Wednesday February 23rd at 1:00 AM (Central Time, UTC-6). Times for each game will be listed separately, with reduced scoring awarded for each game (5 points for first place, 4 for 2nd, 3 for 3rd, 2 for 4th, and 1 for all other times). Times are also combined for a final ranking, with Combined Time = (Dragster Time x 10) + (Barnstorming Time x 1.75) + (Grand Prix Time) + (Sky Jinks Time * 1.75). These times will then be ranked and scored as per normal High Score Club rules (11 points for 1st place, etc). This means you could score up to 31 points if you post the #1 time for all four games. Alternatively, even if your times are high, you can get 5 points just for participating. You do not have to play the games in any specific order, and you can submit updated times for each game separately. You do not have to play all four games. However, if you fail to participate in one of the games, it will be counted as a time penalty against your combined time. For this competition, there will be no bonus challenges, and no points awarded for best tips (don't worry, they'll come back next time!)
