The idea is quite simple, every post you make has to have two screenshot/pictures, one with a score beating the score in the last post playing the same game and another screenshot of a score you *just made* for another game.
So the way it works is you look at what is the current game and the score to beat, you beat it and take a screenshot and then you play a credit or two of another game and then post both of those screens in your post (making sure no one beat you to it and already posted a new game).
Here are the main rules:
Code: Select all
-If no one has managed to beat a score for 48 hours (2 days) anyone can come in and post a score for another game so that the game can continue.
-Every time someone beats a score and post a new game he gets one point, you can update the score table to add your earned point when you post you two screenshots.
-If you realize someone has beaten the old score and posted a next game right before you did (even if your score is higher) please delete or edit out your post to avoid confusion. The first to beat the score wins.
-Please do not post superplay/WR-level scores, this will only bog down the game. The goal is to have beatable scores. They can still be decent scores though.
-Please make sure the new game you are about to post has not been played recently (say the last 4 pages of the thread)
-Games do not have to be in mame, they can be anything from x360 to atari 2600 free or commercial, this will help diversity. Just make sure there are at least a few other people on the forum that have access to it (no sdoj for example)
-The person who posted the last score/game cannot participate and beat his own score to post another game.
-You can have special rules when you post a new game, things like 1 life only, only using purple shot etc...
Edit: Turns out score posts only make the thread a little bland so instead of making another thread you can just discuss the current game here.
