    I don't think there's any chance of a 400+ score for me, boys. Been a L O N G time since I played. I know I used to be pretty good at it - had a whole technique for where to stand, where to have the little white ball when you let go of the Aim button, how much spin to add, etc. but I'm afraid that was lost to time.

     

    Speaking of this... I assume everyone is free to pick the alley slickness, ball weight and L/R they prefer, right?

    Hmm, you may not recall, but 300 is the max possible. This is why if you post a score of 400+ then your bowling alley needs to be inspected. :grin:

     

    You are welcome to pick whatever lane conditions and hand that you like.

     

    I like to use both hands and push the ball down the lane "granny" style

     

    You can play as many games as you like, but you can only post one score with the weekly password.

     

    The commissioner said that you can post a score before Thursday morning, but that's a bit ambiguous. That depends on your definition of "morning", which for me means before sunrise. But to play it safe, it may be best if you can post a score before midnight tonight, as pimpmaul has suggested.

     

    Hopefully after a few games your skills will start to return. It is like riding a bike, they say.

     

    I thought there is to be an award for most improved, and maybe you'll qualify for that depending on what you post tonight and improve in the preceding weeks.

     

    Good luck!

    Was there any mention of when on Thursday the new password will be posted each week?

     

    Nurmix - please bowl away today and get a score in. And then thereafter be looking on post #1 for each week's password on Thursday. You don't want to post a score without the designated password in the picture.

     

    PS: if you do post a score of 463, or more, today, as mthompson is hoping, we'll need to get the league officials over to your place to investigate your bowling alley's scoring system. and that doesn't mean that you can play 4 players and add them up....or does it? :evil:

    .........I better not.

     

    Eric, I am not sure if you are catching the vague innuendo that Rev and Cmart are making about the gerbil

     

    Do you recall: Richard Gere and the Gerbil

     

    On a side note, my friend while growing up wanted to know what his hamster has packed in its cheeks, so he was holding it by the rear legs and started shaking it, trying to force the cheek packed stuff out. Needless to say, the legs got dislocated and the thing didn't survive long with two broken rear legs.

     

    so you aren't the only killer kid of small rodent things

    The Hive and LTO Flash?

     

     

     

    These aren't really games, though.

     

    Check out the Hive thread, it will come with new games, so I think that one does count.

     

    And are you saying that if you get an LTO Flash that you won't be playing games on it?

     

    I know vprette was asking in the first post for new game suggestions for 2016, but my hopes are still for a 2016 release of the Hive and LTO Flash

    Hello all! Posting this here because I thought it might get more traffic and faster responses (no offense, Intellivision page!)

     

     

    Also, talked to my coworker about price today. ...So it looks like I've got a couple of Intellivisions and 21 games (16 boxed, 5 loose).

     

    And now there's nothing stopping you from *officially* heading over to the Intellivision page and join the fun there :)

    I have a ton of Lock N Chase Boards from commons I'm gutting for shells. Send me a PM I'll send you a good board to put in it.

     

    Anybody want to buy 500 to 700 Games Boards without shells....many games - many dupes.

     

    Yes, I may be interested in a few. I'll need to confirm what my questionable carts are and make a list and see what you have.
