Highscore list has been updated - see initial post. Current ranking: 1. hspfpj (535pts) 2. playvectrex (471pts)
Please note that I'll update the highscore list at least once a day. On the last day of the tournament there will be more frequent updates. ___
It's six players, now, with 26 score submissions which is a good start. playvectrex and Peer have posted scores of six or more different games and thus have qualified, already (Congrats!). And to be precise: Brett was first to qualify and Peer second. ___ Congrats, Brett, for completing USA Zombie Apocalypse! I hope completing the game isn't too much a piece of a cake. Perhaps you may edit your above post and use the "Spoiler" feature of that forum so that other people will be surprised, too.

Welcome to your first Vector War, gauze! Your picture is fine, gauze. Ideally, pictures are taken from the end screen (not the reset screen) but this is not always possible. Vector War bases on fairness, honesty, and fairness. In case of doubt scores I'll try to consider scores valid unless it's an essential score i.e. a score which has quite some impact on the competition and ranking.

Good day everyone! Because it's the VW, now my kids want to play Vectrex for the first time since last year, so I literally get one turn on two games. Unfortunately the 5yo can't get the hang of anything and the 9yo has ADHD which limits motor skills and so can't get anywhere near the qualification scores without having a big meltdown, so probably only me competing again this year. I thought gaming was supposed to be relaxing!? ibb.co/5svdJz9 - Pole Position 38,470 ibb.co/Ryvb1Vm - Scramble 32,600 Great that you participate, Phil, and cool that even your children try to join the tournament. Threshold scores stem from the early days of the Vector War and during the years their intention and purpose has changed. Today, threshold scores aren't supposed to exclude players so I've decided to lower some of the very old threshold scores of the original GCE/MB games.

Ok great, I am honest, I'm not going to get top spot in any score, I just want to be in the drawing for the vectorlink tbh! Welcome to your first Vector War, gauze! Your picture is fine, gauze.

playvectrex and Peer have posted scores of six or more different games and thus have qualified, already (Congrats!). That was lightning speed indeed! BTW, Helmut, got an odd request to a new account saying they want to sponsor this Vector War by offering beer (?). Don't know what you think of this but I just okayed the account, so maybe they'll speak up?

Highscore list has been updated - see initial post. Current ranking: 1. hspfpj (600pts) 2. gauze (509pts) 3. playvectrex (337pts)
Notes: - gauze : You're third to qualify. Congratulations, gauze! Scores for 10 games on the very first day - chapeau! - Peer : That's a good Solar Quest score! And you've submitted many scores which beamed you to the top of the ranking. (EDIT: I have to start with adjectives like "good" to have some superlatives like "brilliant" or "superb" towards the end of the Vector War in spare. Great that there was much activity in the first 12 hours of Vector War. I guess America is about calming down for the week-end and score submission move from Europe to America.
