asponge Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 157,300 I've never even heard of this game before. It's not too bad. The grey tile background makes it difficult to see the enemy projectiles. The difficulty ramps up quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbee99 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 195800 Horrible pic! You can make out 6 digits though. There's no way to get back to the score after the game over screen goes away so I was trying to move fast to get a pic of it. B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauren Tyler Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I'M knocked out? I wasn't the lowest scoring player in this game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarilovesyou Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I'M knocked out? I wasn't the lowest scoring player in this game! This whole knockout thing seems strange, I've read the thread about a dozen times and it still doesn't make sense. In any case, at least ya got some points for the NES HSC. I didn't get any as I don't have this game, lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 I'M knocked out? I wasn't the lowest scoring player in this game! You were the lowest scoring played still alive in the knockout competition. Roadrunner had already been knocked out, and jblenkle had never been in the knockout competition in the first place. If I am missing something, please let me know. I'M knocked out? I wasn't the lowest scoring player in this game! This whole knockout thing seems strange, I've read the thread about a dozen times and it still doesn't make sense. In any case, at least ya got some points for the NES HSC. I didn't get any as I don't have this game, lol! If there is something that I can do to enhance your understanding of the knockout rules, please let me know. Everyone who submitted a score in round 1 was part of the knockout competition. The lowest score from each round is knocked out. Roadunner got knocked out in round 1, Austin and I both got knocked out in round 2 for failing to submit a score, and LArcenTyler got knocked out in this round for having the lowest score among the players still alive in the tournament. The last player left standing wins the knockout tournament. Anyone is free to submit a score during any round, and they will be added to the HSC standings, which is completely separate from the knockout tournament. Basically, we are running them in parallel. This is why I have two separate lists in the OP. One is the HSC standings, and the other is the players still left in the KO tournament.
