Late night amusements

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MAME Action Replay : One Thread

So I'm carousing through MARP late one night (yes, carousing, and don't you forget it!), and I remember QT mentioning his position in the leaderboard on #marp. So I bring up his list of scores, browsing through them and seeing if there's anything he's played that would interest me. And then I see this...

Short name: deleted Score: 1.5 million or so (100 pts) Desc: Collision detection doesn't work, I guess. Couldn't leave this in good conscience.

~grins~ But you could take the 100 pts for whipping everyone's ass in deleted, right? ;)

Back to your pods, everyone!

Well, at least it's better than the period of time that I was first for "deleted" with (a score I intentionally set to) zero points :)!

I was under the impression that that 100 pt. value for 'deleted' is automatically deleted from your leaderboard total anyways. ie: it doesn't count. I am still under this impression. If I'm wrong, feel free to let me know.

Incidentally, the original score was for Roadrunner, which just went on and on and on because collision detection is broken as long as you're moving. Roadrunner was *never* that hard to catch before. Poor Wile E. Coyote. :P

My pod's bigger than yours.
