Just wanted to introduce myself. Long time lurker of the scoreboard. Look forward to submitting some score. :) Also I just submitted a 3,999,600 on Donkey Kong 3, but the score rolls at 1 million. So I was wondering. Will the score show up as 999,600, 1,999,600, or 3,999,600?

Welcome George! Always happy to see another competitor in the arcade. :)

The Mods here will watch the submission and it should show up as 3,999,600 when they confirm the amount of score roles when watching.

Hey George, welcome to the site. Amazing score.

Edit: Why is Permafrost listed as the current champion, rather than Syscrusher?

Thanks for all the warm replies. One minor complaint. There should be some way of knowing if your score is in the "Pending" category. Since DK3 was my very first score I submitted I wonder if I did that one correctly since I have had over 10 scores put up on the board since then.

On the "view scores" page, click on "view all scores" and you will see the ones waiting in the queue.

OK, I checked, and now I am concerned I don't see my Donkey Kong 3 score waiting in queue. Neither is my Donkey Kong Junior score I put up. Can someone else check the queue, and see if my score appears for them? Should I just redo both games?

I don't see it either, best wait for a mod to chime in, maybe there was changes. If you got the success message, than I think it should be okay. I've never lost a score after getting the success message.

Not there George - sorry.

You'll have to re submit.

As Steven Cassidy said wait for the "Success" message to appear before closing game.

OK, I just submitted another Donkey Kong 3 Arcade score, but I don't see it again. I press enter when I am done, and I wait for the success message. Then I go to the all score table, and it is not showing up.

My score this time was 4,985,200

Some things to point out. The score flips at 1 million. Also it took me a little less than 4 hours to do this. Could it be the game is just too long, and your website is not accepting the score?

George I still can't see it.

Don't submit on another game and either I or someone will talk you through how to you can resubmit it.

Sounds good. I do any other games. I really do think it has to do with time, because only the long games are having problems for me. This is the 4th time a long game has not been accepted. Twice with Donkey Kong 3. Once with Donkey Kong Junior, and once with Evander Holyfields real deal boxing.

OK George I'll send you a Pm .

The length of the submission shouldn't be a problem.

Message received, and I did what you asked. Hopefully this works. :)

But it does make it longer to get the success message, correct?
