Thank you for the congratulation, but mostly thank you for taking some of your time to make sure we get to enjoy the competitive side of the VCS. And thanks to everyone who participated (both in the season and the brackets). The VCS is a bit too niche and without this little community, the scores on the screen wouldn't mean as much and a big part of the VCS fun.

Don't compare yourself too harshly when you haven't even finished your first HSC season yet. I didn't check both they are probably all veterans of the HSC. And by the way, I'm way too tired to beat any scores tonight. You won't get any surprise scores from me before midnight.

(I know it's easy to say for me but)The important is to participate and have fun. And I think we had that. I know I did, it had been years since video gamegot my blood pumping like it did competing with you guys. 3-way final with a lot of scores being beaten, 3 competitors similarly matched. 3 generations of gamers, with varied video game backgrounds. Scrabbler who lived the VCS golden years. Me from the golden age of 2D gaming, being raised on the NES and Genesis. And from your profile page, seems like you grew up in the golden age of 3D gaming. I really hope I get to compete with you and Scrabbler again in the next season. P.s. Seems like the Bronze league made you a bit of a star mister First-Pick-For-TeamPlay.

Less than 24 hours remaining. Good night everyone and I'll be back tomorrow around 7pm for the last stretch.

Missile Command 16B - 38880 This game is way too stressful, those pixel people need to build their cities in a safer place. Alright, now I'm off to play Chopper Command... as if I didn't have my daily dose of stress already.

Oh la la! Rawr!

Crazy Climber - 150 300 I should have read thr manual earlier I wasted a lot of time. LadyBug - 229 990 In the 3 random letter for each stage, one is only in special, one is only in extra and the last one is a common letter. Messing up SPCI or L can destroy a game(or just having bad luck) Skiing 9A - 1.22:52 Gotta go fast! That's enough shenanigans for tonight.

Sadly I'm not much of a challenge right now. Truth is, personnal life got in the way on my days off and I work week-ends... Good news is I don't need 8 hours of sleep to function, so I should beat a score or two before this is overs.

Chopper Command - 20200 That's it for tonight! I'm a vit tired and the scores are getting harder to beat.

LadyBug - 144960 Missile Command - 19200 Lady Bug is becoming one of my favorite game on the system, I kinda wish my score gets beaten quick. However, I can't say the same for missile command. Alright, I'm going to play Skiing now. I wish I didn't have to but I can't get lazy. Edit : Skiing 1:25.22 Got this on my first try, I guess not wanting to play is a great motivation. Alright, I'm done playing for the night.

Crazy Climber 94300 Chopper Command 12600 I'm now tied for the win on crazy climber(what were the odds) and leading by a measly 200 points in Chopper Command. Pretty sure they won't let me get away with that for very long. I have a feeling this week will be interesting.

I see you kept the CRT tv for the finals. I was afraid you'd put it away and bring it back as a secret weapon at the last minute.

It was discovered you could restart the game until you got an easy slope with 5 B/A, it's probably why it's now 9A. By the way, I just played a bit of each game. I feel like I could improve all of the but this is a starting point. LadyBug 85420 Skiing 1:31.92 Crazy Climber 50100 Chopper Command (1life) 10700 Missile Command 12810

I sent a PM to S.Baz informing him we were still waiting, no need to make his inbox explode. Also, here's the list of possible games. Missile Command (Game 16B) Gas Hog Enduro Skiing (Game 9A) Chopper Command (Single Life Challenge) Encounter At L-5 He-Man Chase the Chuckwagon Oystron Fast Eddie Entombed Q*Bert's Qubes Pole Position Crazy Climber Cosmic Creeps Tanks But No Tanks Combat Super Cobra Exocet Desert Falcon Lady Bug

My guess is that S.Baz is crazy busy with meat-space and has to take time away from cyberspace. I propose that if we don't have the games by noon tomorrow we take things in our own hands. I propose 4 games chosen, first place is worth 3, second 2 and first is worth 1 (same scoring system as during the season). The games should not have been played yet in the brackets nor being played in gold or silver currently. This seems to be the way S.Baz was picking them. (Will try to update with the list when not at work.) Do you agree with those rules DarQ and Scrabbler? Is anyone reading this and willing to randomly pick the games for us?
