    Pictures are no longer accepted for one thing at Twin Galaxies. Just wait to you see how many scores are accepted using only a picture at Highscore.com! It's ludicrous. Why are scores accepted by referee a bad thing? Typically these were scores adjudicated in a tournament setting.
  2. VectorGamer
    Highscore.com is too lax. For example, many MAME scores are accepted using only a photograph as evidence but there is no way to prove that the game was played using certain dip switch settings (if it's even documented in the track). Twin Galaxies is your best bet.

    Unfortunately Atari arcade has taken a back seat to Atari consoles on this site. Only a fraction of us here are diehard arcade gamers. That's what KLOV is for.

    Probably cuz there are only a few like myself that appreciate the b/w era of arcade gaming.

    I raise my can of beer on high to all the Save A Click Guys

      Never heard of them so I looked them up:

      I think there are news stories that deserve to be read, (even if I have to click read more) and there are clickbait stories, where each paragraph ends in a cliffhanger with a View Next button.

      I believe the latter should totally go away, but in such instances, I wouldn't mind being saved a click if I want to know the answer (or clicked on it mistaking it for real news)...

    If memory serves Win 98 SE was the first version of Windows that did not require DOS.

    Wrong. Win 95 system requirements: https://kb.iu.edu/d/aezf Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_95#Dependence_on_MS-DOS

    Who wants to load a page with 25 different sound-enabled avatars playing simultaneously?

    Some game play uploaded today...

    It's not like gaming magazines of the era kept track of scores or you can earn patches from software companies.
  17. VectorGamer
    Hey OP, how about starting a few more threads on this? The peeps in the Lynx and Jaguar forums probably need to see it.

    There's an app for pinball scores called Pindigo. You take a picture of your score and upload it to the app. You can follow other people, comment on their scores and compare your scores not only with your followers but with everyone that uses the app. Someone needs to develop an app like this for classic video games.

    That looks like a stink bug. They like to crawl in tight spaces when it gets cold.

    To be honest I'm not too pumped about the theme. I would actually have to play this one. But to be fair, I haven't been too pumped over the themes from the last couple of years. Even the Star Wars pin which I have played about 20 times and I'm not really liking it. There was a rumor of an Iron Maiden pin - that I would be pumped for.
