yup, and scored 860k at 1m pace on mame maybe a year after that, so yeah its been a very long road getting to 1m!

been a target since then to get a 1m score up on TG, but i guess times have changed and im just not inclined to bother...

I remember that score well because my first submission to TG was 606,500, and yours was the next spot up at 666,400, so it was "the score to beat" for a couple months.

Actually, the REAL score I wanted to beat was Brian Kuh's (697,500), but in any case, I was definitely chasing those two spots...

One of our newest members to the forum and streaming list, Matt, put up a score of 367,500. http://www.twitch.tv/mrdontsmildride/c/2540804. He said that his personal best is over 500K. I have not got to know him yet besides the few questions I had about his cab and his TKG-4 board, but I can definitely see some potential. I sent him a Twitch message about the submission rules and everything so I wait to see if he plans on submitting anything officially or if he is just playing for fun. Wasn't sure if the Twitch messages were glitchy too so I also send a personal message via the forum. I eagerly await our new rising star!

Jon, I'm surprised you're not gonna submit that score to TG, especially because your verification looks more than adequate.

Are you shooting for a better score first?

Because he doesn't want to give TG $60 to verify his score would be my guess. Nice Score Jon!

cheers Jonsey  ;)

thanks Corey much appreciated!

TG were gone for so long, then they came back charging a relatively large fee, it just seems like they are no longer in the picture... esspecially for us DK players as in the meantime we now have our own forum and leaderboard, iv barely even been on the new TG site...

i know you cant expect much for free these days, but i think a leaderboard you have to pay to get on is a greatly devalued product so i dont really want to support this new model...

i also cant afford to drop £1000+ to go to the KO3 so i dont see any value in making the score 'TG official', maybe i would think twice if i scored 1.07m...i can always submit the game at a later date if i want to...

Finally upped my PB to 255,300.  Ended on L=8 elevators.  I'm still last, but finally out of my slump.  Anyway, I'm attaching the zip file with the .inp and .wlf files included.  I'm also submitting to MARP.  The game will also be available on Twitch, since it was streamed live.

Sweet! I feel like I haven't seen you streaming much lately, but that could just be me not paying attention. Hopefully I'll catch your next PB!

Corey, that zip file might not work.  If you have any problems, here's another .zip containing the .wlf and .inp files for my 255300 game.  Thanks.

Just a reminder to people that the text under the List takes more work than you think. Please allow at least 48 hours before sending me any personal reminders. Usually if it takes as much time as 48 hours it is possible I simply forgot and that a simple personal message in the forum would be appreciated. Sometimes there are multiple scores to update and it is possible that I can miss one. I go through a process that takes more time as well. I check out the inp and wlf files with wlfviewer and I start the game. I double check to make sure the link I have is an actual highlight and not a broadcast, or if a link if not provided I hunt one down. This is true for retrieving the date as well, having to go to the stream, since I review it anyways. These things take time to verify. Not to mention that 2 day nibbler performance over there in that stack of tapes... lol jk. Thank you.

I have updated the following scores:

Jason Brittain - Just get rid of those spring deaths and you will improve that score in no time. I have never seen someone use the weave and freestyle so often, but somehow you pull it off, even if I think that this is a riskier way to play.

Jason Nugent - Nice work on those rivets, couldn't have done better myself.

Great job to both of you!
