you would get more traffic here maybe, if you get us all playing it on here, as many play with TG settings, and most play on easier euro settings.
your game choosing is private?
that's a laugh! the biggest and best team are scared of something?
heh, heh...

I don't see any issue with Bomb Jack and the fact that a couple of guys can marathon it. The guys capable will need to choose if they want to do a massive marathon (I think your MARP score was 16 hours you said) just to get 1st, or just post a couple of million points and settle for a top 3 or 5 place and try and use the time saved to increase your scores on other games.

The majority of us can't marathon Bomb Jack so it's not an issue.

On the other hand, a short game of Bump 'n' Jump for me on the cab is around 3 hours, I'm guessing the average player (100-200k) takes around 10 mins max - so should we make BnJ 3/5 lives only just so I can save some time? I don't think so.

Just my 2 cents

**Barra** · 06-28-2014, 09:00 PM

I have also heard rumours of qbert and joust being in the comp. Reckon george will play?

I agree. There will be the usual crowd who will do well on this and maybe more. But, this shouldn't be an issue.

**kernzy** · 06-28-2014, 10:51 PM

well then, if you want your bomb jack participants to compete on an even level, you need to change the DIPS.

I don't understand what you mean - every game will have the DIP settings listed and we'll all be playing on exactly the same settings.

Given his well known hated of all things MAME, I doubt it very much.

I'd actually like Q*Bert to come up, I was making good progress in this game but haven't touched it for a few months.

Edit: I take it you are referring to George Leutz in this case?

Why do we have to do this for the few? My suggestion would be not to spend 800 hours on a single game, period. Although, that option is entirely open to the user. They will need to assess is it worth spending an incredible amount of time on a game to possible gain a few points or split that time up a different way.

There are 20 games in the tourney. Anything can and will happen. As the saying goes, never put all your eggs into one basket.

**cheetah32p** · 06-29-2014, 10:51 AM

My name isn't down anymore right now with DKF! I still can't sign into their Forums anymore yet. Everytime I try signing up again the site still says I can't. I've tried talking with Jeff and nothing right now. I think I have to wait a couple of months to signup again on the site. From past mistakes I have done towards the community about my complaining about certain things that I have actually apologized for now. I wanted to play for RU now if its ok. My new stream channel is Twitch if its ok. I've never played in a gaming bash before or anything. I thought this would be something very awesome to do. My name isn't on their list for gamers at the moment. If I can't play for RU, then its ok and I won't play. I understand.

I don't get over to DKF that often (I probably should more, they are a super awesome group) but just tried logging in and did not have any problems. Maybe it was a short term glitch with the site? That sort of thing occurs all the time with different sites from time to time.

If signing into DKF is still a problem, you could try emailing Jeff to see if he is able to fix whatever the glitch is. You could PM him here too if you don't have his email

You can still play for dkf. Unless they did ban you. Just ask wolf for the submission form when we kick off the tourney...

**cheetah32p** · 06-29-2014, 03:53 PM

I think that DKF did ban me since I can't reply to the Forum's at the moment. I tried a few times and can't log in still. I don't know how long i'll be banned for I think it might be till the next Online DK Open as far as I know. I'm not sure if longer or anything. Nobody has let me know yet. If I'm playing in this tournament or if i'm invited to play in any other tournaments, if you can please message me on Facebook. Jason Corey Brittain on Facebook. I'll be up for playing.

Like anyone's going to spend 800+ hours on a single game that's not Minecraft.

Pretty sure SJB and I have way over 1k hours in TF2. How much of that is actual game time is anyones guess though.

**FudgyDRS** · 06-29-2014, 09:51 PM

Spend 792 hours on Dessert Bus and get the max score of 99.

**MrBumpNJump** · 06-29-2014, 11:17 PM

So when is the official start time for this? If you can give us your location it will help us guys on the other side of the world work out when to start looking.

This is going to be Epic!

**Wolf** · 06-29-2014, 11:21 PM

11:59 est tomorrow

**FudgyDRS** · 06-29-2014, 11:36 PM

Are the 20 games that are on the submit menu the games for the tourney?

**Wolf** · 06-29-2014, 11:38 PM
