This sounds interesting but why is autofire allowed? Seems strange. For what it's worth I'll put my hat in the ring too.

I'll link WB to this topic. I'll mention this on a couple other sites if their rules permit it.

[Wolf]

only reason autofire was mentioned was for shootemup system but who knows if they will play if not we mostly likely will remove

[OmegaShadow]

I'll be happy to participate. I'm in.

[sabby]

Guess I could help out.

[CatalystiCam]

Wow, some blasts from the past here. Welcome back guys

[TwinChargers]

[Jack Bando]

easier to understand the scoring system

Week One Scenario:

Site A has 20 participants and picked Galaga as their selection.

Site B has 50 participants and picked Bosconian as their selection.

Site C has 30 participants and picked Zoo Keeper as their selection.

Each team now must qualify with five scores on each of the above games. It does not matter how many player scores a site submits on each game as only the top five scores for each site qualify. These top five qualifying scores are now ranked against the other sites top five qualifying scores. Team score is based on rank tally with the lowest score tally winning the round.

Should a team fail to submit five scores on each game, missing submissions will automatically receive last place rank. In the above scenario, last place rank with three teams would be 15.

At the end of week one the standings might look like this for Galaga:

Galaga:

1 point - 2,000,000 - submission 1 site a
2 points - 1,800,000 - sub 1 site c
3 points - 1,700,000 - sub 2 site a
4 points - 1,600,000 - sub 3 site a
5 points - 1,500,000 - sub 4 site a
6 points - 600,000 - sub 5 site a
7 points - 550,000 - sub 2 site c
8 points - 500,000 - sub 3 site c
9 points - 450,000 - sub 1 site b
10 points - 400,000 - sub 4 site c
11 points - 350,000 - sub 5 site c
12 points - 300,000 - sub 2 site b
13 points - 250,000 - sub 3 site b
14 points - 200,000 - sub 4 site b
15 points- 150,000 - sub 5 site b

Site A received points for 1st place, 3, 4, 5 and 6th place for a total of 19 points.

Site B received points for 9th place, 12, 13, 14 and 15th place for a total of 63 points.

Site C received points for 2nd place, 7, 8, 10 and 11th place for a total of 38 points.

Overall team scores for Galaga:

Site A - 19
Site C - 38
Site B - 63

Now repeat the above for Bosconian and Zoo Keeper to obtain the total week scores for each team.

Continue on to week two and repeat.

I'll play any of the games that appeal to me, I'm not that great though, but I hope I can do something good

This is exactly the reasoning behind the tourney. The whole appeal imo is anything can happen. Someones mediocre score could be enough to clinch top 5. At the same time there is no requirement to do well. We are a team.

I'm 100% with this It's all great fun, a bit of lively team spirit, tons of people seem to be signing up over at the the mighty DKF, over there in Oz, and the gamexers are jumping aboard too...

I'm hardly great either, Demon-Mask, but let's get a mediocre score or two together for the team!

[Kugyince]

We are now officially Team Mediocre.

kongbro origins

[CatalystiCam]

26+ of us collaborating a game to play each week should be interesting haha

[Barra]

Yeah should be interesting. A majority vote is the obvious choice

Shaping up to be a great contest. Every team is full of quality players. Its awesome to see so much enthusiasm.

It would be fantastic if we could make this an annual contest, with the hopes of it catching on and attracting a boat-load more websites. There are plenty out there who I am sure would be interested

[CatalystiCam]

I haven't been there in a while, but I'm sure Famicom World could be into it. I could check, but yeah, it's been like 4 years since I was there?
