HSC10 Round 3: Qix


therealbountybob

Recommended Posts

I got the following bug, playing with Fandal's version and Atari800win+

 

http://manillismo.bl...03/qix-bug.html

I mentioned this on the 1st post ;) The bugs happen on real hardware too... I think it's the copy protection (or a memory leak) on the xex versions - I have one that works okish but can't remember where it is from (homesoft perhaps). There are some ATR versions on atarionline.pl that may work better. Sometimes running directly from DOS works better with qix.xex ;)

 

Final tables time...

Thanks again to everyone for participating in the HSC, even if you just had the odd go, much appreciated ; 28 players and 30 votes for the next round :cool: And now it's congratulations to orpheuswaking or as he shall now be known "The Qix Master" for smashing the HSC record and bagging many bonuses along the way; mainly as a result of justin case pushing him close and taking runner up spot, :thumbsup: for a great effort there my friend. And who's that we have winning the bonus game :ponder: It's congratulations to NIKON for bagging the 3pts :thumbsup:

 

Hope to see everyone in round 4 :)

Who's this Juston Case who came 9th in Alternity?

you tell me?!

 

you had to find the one mistake didn't you [trbb braces himself for barrage of posts about missing scores ]

 

 

I'll update the current standings later folks as I've got an apple pie to make and need to get 2pts, sorry pints, of milk and light the fire... oh I did put Round 4 on already :D

Bit late, but Mothers Day flower delivery disaster kicked my day into disarray - can I sneak this in?

 

QIX 1,258,969

 

 

when did you play this go? after 10am?! Arrgh now I have a dillema - I'll stick you in the record books for PAL and orph for NTSC - I'll give you the 2pts bonus also and give you both a win in the column and you can both be Qix Masters so you're Qix Master PAL and orph is Qix Master NTSC... hows that you guys ? !!!

 

 

STOP PLAYING QIX NOW YOU TWO!!! [wait for the catch-up and improves scores - probably in round 6] :)

Dont worry about it matey. I started playing it at 8am, but got distracted by the need to find out what happened to the flowers I sent for Mothers Day. I'll lay the blame for my 2 point loss squarely at the feet of those incompetants at seranata flowers (I mention them by name on the hope that nobody from the HSC gets stuck with a shoddy service from them)

 

I'll get my points back in the catch up round - you can count my 1.2m as my first post for any catch up.

 

Hopefully I'll find something else that comes naturally to me during the next few rounds.

Sorry if my score's wimpy but I had to make it to the deadline.I'll try harder next time I swear!

Welcome Jim :thumbsup: great to have you on board :)

 

Wimpy scores are welcome too, and encouraged for my competitors :D

Now you were late and did play the wrong version (the 5200 port) of Qix but hey it's a friendly sort of place so I'll award you a valuable HSC point and add you to the tables :party:You can make some improvements and catch up on the other rounds you missed in when we get to round 6 "Catch-Up and Improve Scores"
