I've never seen falling icicles. And I've played the 5200 version a lot. So I'd say no.

I probably spent more time on this in the arcade at the skating rink, than any other game in the 80's.

You can spend a lot of time playing Mario Bros even as a not trained player.

Maybe 10 minutes with one quarter, there are many games that are not so friendly to customers.

Many thanks to Roadrunner and Damon for your congratulations.

I had a lot of luck this year,

on the one hand there were played many games I like and only two I dislike or haven't played before (Pitfall 2 and Countermeasure).

And the very best players from the last seasons didn't took part this year.

[Mangia-Boy]

And of course many thanks to our moderator DamonicFury, who did an excellent job again.
