I thought I had until 2am est to post my last scores before being limited to 2. Probably won't make much difference but that's why I posted my scores at that time.

As organisator of the Vector War I want to follow the rules as a player precisely. With my score of Stramash Zone played with "CLIPPING OFF' I'm not 100% sure.
Manual of Stramash Zone says:
Clippiing ON - Don't draw off the edge of the screen. Scary.
Clipping OFF - Draw off the edge of the screen. It's fine.
Sounds as if "Clipping OFF" is default. Could someone please check?
EDIT: I just had a look at previous screenshots and from what I can see everyone played with "CLIPPING ON". I'll remove of my Stramash Zone score of 1700 points and will post a new highscore list.

I was hoping to get third place but looks like that's not gonna happen Right, coleco1981 is a very good player, it will be very tough to get one of the ranks 1-3. But: Even 4th winner can choose a prize from the prize list and I'd say this year all prizes are very attractive. |

Ohhh a lot happend the last 24 hours. Just had time to play Spike 1 hour (or 2?) to get this highscore... Don't know yet, if I find time to play today, and more: Don't know if I beat any scores of all this very great scores... I think now at the moment, that I will end with 2nd, 3rd or 4th place... (Worst case is, that I will have to buy the t-shirt this year  ) |

PS: I fight for every percent in the scoring table: hcmffm: If I have 249800 in Star Hawk, Coleco has 252800 and maximum is 250'000 then shouldn't I have 99.92% instead of 98.8 (98.8% is calculated 249800/252800). Maybe I will try to get 250000 anyay in Star Hawk, considering in which games I will try to make some better scores...

Last score was still with the "bugged" version. Asteroid Cowboy 771
Will look if I get some more playtime from 22:00 onwards...
Cheers...

@helmut:
I played Stramash Zone with the "default" whatever that is - didn't change any settings.

Moyu (19,80%) Notes: - Score code: ULURU (valid till the end of the Vector War) ___ PS: I fight for every percent in the scoring table: hcmffm: If I have 249800 in Star Hawk, Coleco has 252800 and maximum is 250'000 then shouldn't I have 99.92% instead of 98.8 (98.8% is calculated 249800/252800). Maybe I will try to get 250000 anyay in Star Hawk, considering in which games I will try to make some better scores... Oh, right, Chainsaw. This is what happens when you rely on your spreadsheet. As an easy fix I've set coleco1981's score to the maximum of 250.000. Chainsaw: I guess this year Malban is too strong. One thing I can tell for sure: You can choose a very attractive prize - regardless whether you are #1 or #2. |

While I am impatiently waiting for my kids to go to bed I was wondering if it is actually a rule in this tournament that you play default settings?
For instance I chose Game 2 in Starhawk for analogue control. So is that invalid by the rules?

I saw something about purchasing a shirt. Is that an option?
I believe in general the rule is to play with default settings unless a different game option is specified to be played. I personally don't mind a different control option being chosen but it can definitely change things.
Playing on default could possibly be tricky for games that save your settings. Maybe in the future a list of defaults could be given for games like this.

For instance I chose Game 2 in Starhawk for analogue control. So is that invalid by the rules? In games you never know which side-effects some settings may have. Therefore I'd find it good if anyone played Game 1 and with defaults. Until now there is no written rule, perhaps I'll add one next year. |
