High Score Contest in April?
Watch this page - Clash of the Titans 2 - for daily updates.
The Clash of the Titans 2 Rules:
- The contest will start around April 15th at noon EST.
- Every other day a new game will be automatically posted here - Clash of the Titans 2 - at noon EST.
- Your team will have 24 hours to submit your highest scores in the new game.
- All scores must be submitted by noon EST the following day.
- Every other day will be a day of rest. No game will be posted on the day of rest and scores submitted during the day of rest will not count.
- During the rest day
- The scores will be moderated and added to the score board.
- The scores for each team will be combined.
- The team with the highest total score will bench a member.
- Your team captain benches a member by posting their name in this thread.
- If you don't think you can post your bench choice on the rest day then instead you may PM Dudebro your bench choice order.
- hint: it is a good idea to plan ahead and decide who you will bench next before you win so you do not have to make the decision last minute.
- If there is a tie then no one is benched.
- The team that benches all of their players first wins.
- This contest should last about 3 weeks.
- If anyone on your team beats any of the following games during this contest then your team captain may call one benched player from any team back into the contest - making that team bench that player again.
- Good luck and happy gaming!
The teams:
Each team was able to submit up to 4 games. The games in this contest will be randomly selected from the team's submitted games and this list of games - 2012 Game Champ Contest.

Re: High Score Contest in April?
The top 3-4 players in the 2012 Game Champ Contest on April 1st will be team captains in a contest that will start in the middle of April.
The number of team captains will depend on the number of people that enter the contest.
If someone wins but does not want to be team captain then it will go to the next person in line.
The team captains will take turns picking players for their team. The following is an example of the pick order each captain will have if there are 3 captains.
Captain 1 gets First & Sixth & Seventh Pick
Captain 2 gets Second & Fifth & Eighth Pick
Captain 3 gets Third & Fourth & Ninth Pick
So if you want to be team captain in the next contest then read this - http://www.retrouprising.com/contest...-champ/t13029/ - and start setting big scores in those games before April.

Way too busy with Hockey, Bowling, School and friends to really be a good addition. I don't want to let anyone down because of that. I'll let you know if things change.

Each team captain needs to create a private social group and invite their team mates.
Each team needs to secretly pick 4 high score enabled games that are good for competition. Do not do anything with these games yet. For now just decide what they will be. You have until Monday to pick your games. Dudebro, Sabby and Winniebagel will have veto power over your game choices.
Ideally you should choose games that you think your team will be better at than the other teams. Your team scores will be combined.
Every time you win a round one of your team member will be removed from the contest. The first team to eliminate all team members wins.

Rules for selecting games.
No Flash games.
Must not require an analog controller or any other special set up. Mouse is ok.
Must not require a super duper computer to get close to 100% FPS.
Must not be highly likely to cause ties - such as an easily attainable max score.
Do NOT select a game from this list - 2012 Retro Uprising Game Champ.

Re: High Score Contest in April?
d3scride can take my place in the team. Playing this isn't a high priority for me right now and I've done plenty of contests before, so I'll drop out if necessary to give him a chance.

That's ok no worries. I don't want you to give up your spot for me. There's always next time I will focus on trying to submit more scores on here in the mean time!

No seriously, take my spot, I work until 8 or 9 every day, and when I get home I'm usually not in the mood to focus on anything. Playing this contest was going to be a very casual affair for me. Take my spot with confidence and make a Speed Coin moment.

So, which one of you is going to be in this contest? If both of you are, that would put a team at a disadvantage. If neither of you are, that would put my team at an advantage. Either way is unfair. A definite decision really should be made soon.
