Do you happen to still have a link to that article?

I had the exact same problem with Star Castle (either mine or the enemy's shots were invisible). Never figured out if it was a game problem or an emulator problem -- had never played the machine before.

10,130 (3 ships)

9,040. Second stage Galaxian level might just be the first example of "bullet hell" in a video game.

84,190.

I'm assuming we're not allowed to use continueds, as has been the tradition in this HSC. Correct?

30,251

18,835.

Sorry for not getting my scores in the last couple of rounds -- this group needs the support. I can see Mr. Do's Wild Ride becoming insanely addictive though.

Anybody know how to get the potentiometer (I assume that means a paddle) to work in MAME?

Good to see the group going again, even for a one-off. Do you have the ROM?

The Sun of Star Quadrant Jupiter, an aurora flare and a planet(?).

Atlantis 56,000.

No Escape: 3,382. Star Voyager: 2 chevrons.

While we're in Imagic mode, here's Moonsweeper for my entry.

Hey Cynicaster -- any news on the new season yet? Not being pushy -- just wondering.

Subterranea 6,865.

I have to say something here. Bonus challenges used to be really good for less-competent players to redeem a few points. I've noticed a recent trend where bonuses have been tied to the player's competency at the main challenge. Personally speaking, I would prefer if bonuses would revert to the older approach. Subterranea is a very hard game -- at one time I was able to figure out the patterns of the tunnel-dwellers and the entryways but this time I've been lost. If any game qualified as a two-weeker, it would be this one.

Pooyan 2,955. Strategy X 2,920.

Millipede 73,830.

Venture Game 1 B/B 6,000

Berzerk Game 9 B/B 6,760

Thanks for the great season -- it's introduced me to some great games I would never have heard of before (Ali Baba and Thunderpop come to mind). Thanks for the consolation awards for less-than-stellar players like myself. Look forward to the new season.

Small improvements in everything but Frogger: Time Pilot 170,800 Ali Baba 32,000. Grobda 14,560

Ali Baba 27,000.
