Highscore list has been updated - see initial post. Current top 5 ranking: 1. Chainsaw (568pts) 2. fmml (499pts) 3. eyelyft71 (458pts) 4. mozie (435pts) 5. Rapetou33 (425pts)
departmentofpinball, Rapetou33 and fruktodlaren have qualified. Congratulations! ___ Toni and Moyu: Good to see you here, again. nexus6: Welcome to your third Vector War. That's a very good Vectorblade score! By now, it's 20 players and 13 have qualified. That's a good start and I'm nosey how many more players will join in. It's difficult to get the highscore lists really up-to-date because scores keeps coming in. Some work but it's fun to experience all the activity and playing - even though we cannot see each other.

Just like Malban I've tried to play all Vectrex games once. I failed and had to play some games several times to get above the threshold score. Polar Rescue really challenged me: At first I had really lousy scores and after playing several games I finally got into it, again. For RipOff I couldn't make a photo in time and I didn't play Vectrexians - so these two games are missing. Beluga Dreams 36
EDIH: 3235
Fortress of Narzod: 5660 Minestorm 35280 Polar Rescue: 37000
SpideX: 24 Spinball: 52390
Tour De France: 1:41 Vectorblade: 184069

Happy Vectrex Day. There is a glitch in Fortress of Narzod which I happened to trigger my first time around for a ridiculous score. I played a second time for a normal score in case the glitch disqualifies. I posted the glitch score anyway. .. It's not easy to kill the wizard and die yourself simultaneously and it takes a long time to run out "infinite" lives and get a Game Over screen! I played the Minestorm BIN in the download pack, which is Minestorm II. Bedlam 22,625 Fortress of Narzod 159,480 / 7,010 Minestorm 42,945 Rip-off 1390 Beluga Dreams 23 Everyday is Halloween 9450 [/url] [/url] [/url] [/url] [/url] [/url] [/url]

Yes, its always been asked to not exploit glitches so it probably won't be counted. Nice for you to join up for the first time ever though, I do believe.

hcmffm Can we clarify how Vectorblade should be played? I don't think we ever stated that any existing carts should be reset to default state at the beginning of the competition (but that's what I did). Also, since Vectorblade a very much a cumulative kind of game where you can get better and better as you play more and more and unlock achievements that get saved to the cart, it gets easier the more you play it. Are we supposed to reset for each play, or can we just leave it reset once and see how far we get in 7 days? My vote would be to just reset once, and see How High Can you Get?
