cparsley Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 (edited) That's right, the new season of the HSC is ready to get underway, and what better than a game never to have made the HSC list before? Scoring for this game will be done as follows... Any game NOT completing the game gets a score of zero. All games completing the game will score in the following fashion... Speed - Lives, with the speed level trumping the live count remaining (example completing it on speed 2 on the last life is better than speed 3 (easiest) with all three lives left) Scores are to posted with the speed first, and lives remaining 2nd... Disc(Enter) is considered speed 0 and top ranked. Please Note : Since the scoring counts completed games, speed and lives remaining, a picture showing the game completed with the number of dots (the way the game shows lives on the map screen) is REQUIRED in order to post a score for this game. No exceptions to this will be accepted for this game. Scores will be accepted until Tuesday, February 10th, 2015 @ 8 am Central time. Good luck to all!!! Scores for game - Cloudy Mountain AD&D - FINAL darthkur - Mode Disc - Lives 3 ( + 10 pts ) hero2billions - Mode 2 - Lives 2 ( + 9 pts ) Cafeman - Mode 2 - Lives 1 ( + 8 pts ) cparsley - Mode 3 - Lives 2 ( + 6 pts ) LidLikesINTV - Mode 3 - Lives 1 ( + 4 pts ) Please Note, the live dots flash on alternate frames, so make sure your pic has the dots visible before it disappears. Pictures submitted without the dots visible will be treated as the worst possible scoring on that speed (1 life left only) Edited April 21, 2015 by cparsley 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I would like to participate, but I don't understand the scoring. I love the AD&D cart and I used to play it when I was a kid, but I think I always played it on "normal" (pressing some key in the keypad). -dZ.

cparsley Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 This won't be my final score for this game (at least I hope) but just posted it for a reference point... As you can see, the crown was achieved (game completed) so it scores... The grey mountain corresponds to mode 3 (pressing 3 on the keypad to start the game - easiest) and the 2 white dots in the crown correspond to the 2 of the 3 lives I had remaining. So I score 3-2 which can be beat by either of the following occurring... One, any player playing mode 3 (easiest/grey mountain) and completing the game without losing any lives (aka scoring a 3-3) OR Two, any player completing the game on a harder difficulty settings (mode 2, mode 1 or disc), regardless of the number of lives remaining. Hope this clears up for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LidLikesIntellivision Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I played in skill 1 (pressing key #3) and I finished with one life. Most lower score possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 What is the visual difference if you beat it on level 2 or 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LidLikesIntellivision Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 What is the visual difference if you beat it on level 2 or 1? The colour of the Cloudy Mountain. It is gray for the easiest one. You can check them on page 4 in the manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Link doesn't work for me, but thanks for the answer. I am playing in real hardware and don't gave a manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
