CGQuarterly Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Welcome to round 4 of the 11th season of the Atari Age NES High Score League! This round we are going to play Ice Hockey!This round ends on Monday, October 28th.Title: Ice HockeyDeveloper: Pax Softonica/NintendoPublisher: NintendoReleased: March 1988http://youtu.be/5kXVFCfBWoQRules: As we did with Tecmo Bowl, the scoring here will be your opponents score subtracted from your score. So if you win 6-2, then your score is 4. Use the default game settings, which are speed 1 and game time 7. You may play as any team you choose, and may compose your team however you like. You will probably want to experiment with different team configurations to maximize your score differential. Scores so far:Current standings: 1. DonPedro 65 2. asponge 50 3. Liduario 48 4. S.BAZ 30 5. darthkur 27 6. roadrunner 24 7. classicgamer_27330 16 8. wolfman 14 9. jblenkle 12 10. NIKON 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asponge Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 25-1 => 24 I was compelled to play another round. I had 2 press the screenshot button a few times to make sure I got the score. Yeah the blinking score is a little obnoxious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jblenkle Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) Do we play the whole game? Or one 7 minute period? I'm guessing the whole game... Edited October 21, 2013 by jblenkle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Ice Hockey - 0-17 (-17) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted October 22, 2013 Author Share Posted October 22, 2013 You play the whole game (just with 7 minute periods). We don't have participation points anymore. Instead, the top 10 players receive points. So a negative score still counts as long as it's in the top 10, which doesn't seem like it will be a problem around here... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 6-2 = 4 no luck getting a pic... the score disappears shortly after the game ends. I'll have to be quik... at least I am re-learning how to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
