  1. This is a bit late for this round, but I'll put my two cents in for future reference. The key to defense is to first attempt to find a pattern in the plays the opponent team is running. Often teams will run the same plays on a particular down. If you guess the play correctly your defense will stop the offense automatically. Second, find the fastest defensive player on the team. You can cycle through the player you control with the A button before the ball is snapped. The fastest player for San Fransisco, for example, is Ronnie Lott. This will help you stop the offense even when you don't call the right defensive play. Third, watch where the quarterback is passing the ball. You'll see an X in front of the intended receiver. If you can get in front of this guy then you'll intercept the ball. This is another area where the fast defensive player comes in handy. Obviously the more interceptions you get the more opportunities you'll have to score. Finally, notice there is a difference between a diving tackle (using the B button) and simply grabbing the guy by running into him. If you just grab another player there is a chance that he can break the tackle. There is also a chance that another offensive teammate can come and knock you off. Whenever possible use the diving tackle to immediately bring your opponent down.
  2. The rounds end every Saturday at 11:59 PM Eastern time. If I'm doing my math correctly that would be 6:59AM Sunday for you.
  3. 63 - 6 => 57 I nearly had a shutout but messed up in the last 15 seconds of the game and let one slip by. I did however block the extra point.
  4. I don't have an interesting theme, but here's a few off-beat suggestions: Clu Clu Land Ice Hockey Ice Climber Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle BreakThru RBI Baseball Kung Fu Metalstorm Monster in my Pocket Solar Jetman Supersprint Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 In honor of football season I would like to second RR's picks of 10-Yard Fight or Tecmo Bowl. I would also like to add a vote for Super Tecmo Bowl or frankly any other NES football game.
  5. If you're using the standard MAME that you get from mamedev.org you can just hit TAB while you're in the game and select Input (This Game). From there you can remap the keys for players 2-4 to your joystick.
  6. Thanks for the tips S.BAZ. That's what I figured. I don't understand that programming decision. Is this what you're thinking of? http://strategywiki....rew/Walkthrough
  7. 12,430 I think that's about as good as I'm going to get before the deadline.
  8. If you get stuck in a barrel or somewhere else on the board is there anything else you can do besides besides reset the game?
