Ok, here's my go at it. Finally, my first Vector War! Better late than never, I always say. I apologize in advance for the couple pictures that got uploaded sideways somehow..not sure why this happened.

Good luck to the rest of you folks!

So what the hell's an "altamari" anyway?

[SiLic0ne t0aD]

Altamira.. Like the Steely Dan song, "The Caves of Altamira".
It's a cave in Spain that has some of the the earliest known human drawings to exist, originating in Paleolithic era.

Thanks...interesting!

I think everything is working so I'll post the rest of my scores from tonight

@ Moyu, jbrodack, and SiLic0ne t0aD: Congratulations to your qualification!

@ Len: Welcome to the Vector War and good luck!

jbrodack: That's a good score in Asteroid Cowboys. I've played Asteroid Cowboy for testing purposes - have to see how I'll do.

Astronaut Cownboy crashed on me a couple of times.

I now photograph each level:

(after that the next level crashed on me (not always the same level though)...

Seems to be pretty random though I had a very very tough level 10 and a totally easy level 20...

[Malban]

Also...

I love Moon Patrol. Even on Arcade I could play through level 1,2 and start level three on one coin.

Still - this is probably my all time high:

(hard to read though: 299370)

And as said before... flicker party:

Did I tell you this week I have two days free?

(This is a coincidence - but I am probably playing some more vectrex, I want this vectrex enhancement kit!)

Nice pick with Asteroid Cowboy Helmut! Pretty cool that the Vectrex finally got its Quantum clone as well (even though I never liked that game that much), as some people had said that Star Sling was one, but Vectorzoa had never heard of it, plus that wasn't correct, as you not only can't touch things, you surely didn't catch two of the same kind as well. Not that the things you caught in Quantum were as big as on here, plus you don't get powerups (although in only one game I didn't come across one of those).

I'll have to look up the write-ups for this as well when it was first released.

Just a beginning score right now with my only game I've played as of yet to officially enter this contest. Will be redoing more scores soon.

And the last time ever I play Bedlam.

This REALLY is a flicker fest:126730

The participation of Moyu and Len fascinated my daughter. So my daughter and I played for the Vector War simultenously on two Vectrexes tonight. Every now and then we swapped cartridges because I have one VecFlash, only.

Below are my scores:

Asteroid Cowboy: 116



Scramble: 41620



Stramash Zone: 520
