Wow ! Nice score on Bubble Bobble !! It's great having you back around and playing so many games :)

All the threads have been updated and you are our new no. 4 at the All Time Leaderboard !! Great job.

Thank you for your enthusiasm. Competing for the (your) best scores and having fun while doing it > that's what this competition is all about :)

Yup! it has been a long time since I tried to beat you all LOL :D

Looks like I'm an expert beating (only) hansolo :D

Some games are impossible to play with my arcade (arkanoid) and others are... well, not my kind of games, as I can't reach even half the minimum score (cyvern) but... I keep playing lol :D

We played this in our "Together Retro" club over on Racketboy for February 2013, and I never seen a game that demanded as much precision as this. I played this a few times to get used to it again, then it all exploded. Somehow I made items appear in one stage and got a huge bonus for collecting all of them, then I found a secret room with 10K items all over, and spelled EXTEND and got as far as I ever did at this game. Sometimes it's being at the right place at the right time. This score probably won't stand forever, but I for one am proud.

I find that if you kill your enemies with either a lightning bolt or a bubble with water in it, you can cash in on some big points.

That is one thing that is really neat about Bubble Bobble. There are so many ways to score.

Sorry for the delay. I added code to the snapper plugin look for and remove the -cheat command-line and it screwed something up, but I fixed it. Here's the snap. :)

The anti-cheat is working fine too BTW. There's no way to cheat with this plugin enabled. Wish I would have thought about that sooner, I could be a lot higher up on some of these lists. LOL! ;)

I'm joking, of course.... :D

That's pretty cool! Of course realistically though if people want to cheat they're gonna cheat and there isn't much anyone can do about it. The biggest games companies in the world can't prevent it! I never understand why they do it though, i mean, what do they get out of it? I would love to ask a cheater and get an honest answer why. "i got to no.1 with absolutely no skill! i am awesome!" I just don't get the mindset ^_^

I trust the members here though, we all are decent chaps and there is absolutely nothing to gain from cheating in our comp. The only reason i can think of would be to get praise from us lot - and if that's the case they have some serious issues and should probably be looked at! Sharpish :lol: (i can also think of much better ways to get false praise hehehe)

Ooooo i had a thought! Could you possibly implement your snapper code into your own build of MAME?! I know again realistically we couldn't force anyone to use that either because of everyone having diff romsets etc, but could you do it? Maybe you already are! I never know what you're gonna pull out the bag next :D
