IMPORTANT: The rules for the contest are laid out below. Please read through all of the rules carefully. Eric has the right to immediately reject any score submission if these rules are not followed as outlined below. ***NO EXCEPTIONS***

Registration
- Any contestant may register for this contest, it is open to any person on this planet that plays Crazy Kong no matter what your skill level may be!!!
- All registrations must be received prior to the start time of the competition.
- In order to register, simply click on the following link and submit your information: https://donkeykongforum.net/tournaments/registration.php (https://donkeykongforum.net/tournaments/registration.php)

Stream Setup
- All contestants are required to stream their games on twitch.tv or hitbox. (NO EXCEPTIONS FOR ANY REASON).

- Contestants may enlist the help of anyone except Eric Tessler to setup their stream.
- Contestant’s stream quality must be sharp enough to read the level and score at a glance (as well as the rest of the game play).  If there is ANY question of score and level due to bad quality stream, that submission will be rejected, instantly, with no exceptions. We suggest that you test your streams and check them from time to time to make sure they are working correctly.
- Streams which are partial, glitchy, edited or manipulated in any way will be rejected.
- Streams must have sound enabled. We must be able to hear the contestants voice and the DK sounds.
- Streams must be available for review on the contestants registered streaming channel.  If for ANY reason the stream is not available for review on the contestant’s registered channel, the submission will be rejected.  NO EXCEPTIONS.

Game Submissions
- In order to submit a score, simply click on the following link: https://donkeykongforum.net/tournaments/scoresubmission.php (https://donkeykongforum.net/tournaments/scoresubmission.php)
- Contestant is solely responsible for submitting their own scores.
- CK arcade or CK MAME (Falcon Crazy Kong Part II, orange girders, ckongpt2.zip) can both be used for score submissions (must use TG settings of 3 lives and a bonus life at 7000 points).
  - Contestant must show the title screen where it says "Part II" and "FALCON 1981"
  - Players may take advantage of various glitches and bugs in CK
- Score submissions can be for any non-zero score.
- At the start of EACH new stream, contestant must state their full name (you no longer have to state your name before every single game).
- The entire game must be played only by the registered contestant who is identified at the beginning of the game.
- Bounties
   * Contestant is solely responsible for specifying which bounty they want to claim when they submit a score.
   * A contestant can only be paid for a maximum of 1 bounty for any one contest.
   * If a submitted game qualifies for more than 1 bounty, the contestant is solely responsible for specifying which bounty they are claiming and they can only claim a single bounty (and the refs will consider only the specified bounty for the score submission). For example, if I have a game where I am the first to a million points and a kill screen, I claim the million point bounty and the kill screen bounty remains open for other contestants to claim.
   * If a contestant tries to claim a bounty however is not awarded that bounty for some reason (i.e., they were incorrect about the bounty or another contestant's score submission invalidates their bounty claim), the contestant may try to claim another bounty on one of their next score submissions.
   * Bounties are considered in the order in which the score submissions are received.
   * Please remember that the bounty system was introduced for fun and to spread around some extra money to the contestants. Any disputes over the bounties will be settled accordingly by Eric.
- If any player is at Eric's house on the days of the contest, I will act as a referee (as such, they do not need to submit their score via email, but the game will still be broadcasted on twitch.tv for everyone to see).
- Eric will be validating all scores and reserve the right to reject any score for any reason.

- Prize money will be sent via PayPal or sent via U.S. post in the form of a registered money order, or check ONLY to the registered contestant.
- If the contestant rejects the prize acceptance guidelines, listed above, or chooses not to accept the prize, that prize will be dropped.

Closing Remarks

I can't believe I may actually sign up for this.

As preparation for the anticipated misery, I plan to shave my head with a cheese grater.

Just a question about the points bounties for the various 5+level boards, when we submit a score do we need to identify if we think we can claim that. ie name the level and points gained on that board? Plus the time in the steam?

Yes - for all bounties you must claim the bounty via the submission process, and give me the info on the stream link, level and time. Thanks!

I'm sitting this one out, opting for the casual spectator role.

Best of luck to those competing.

I don't see Tim Sczerby's name on the registration list.  Is he aware of this event?

Thank you Eric!

I was only able to play a single board-run game (actually I guess it was two), but had no time or energy to put in a serious tryhard attempt.  :) Hopefully we'll do another one of these and I can really get in there and break my PB.

Highlight was watching Phil crush his own record three times  Kreygasm, and then come literally one board short of a 4th at the very end  BibleThump . Fun times.

Thanks Eric for putting this on
Well done to the top 4. Far above the rest. Phil you are a beast

Same situation as ChrisP only had time a couple of attempts at the beginning, with the one ending on 21-4. Hoping there are more of these to come!

:)

Mystery bounty #3: 17th place: Chuck Vess: $25

Chuck is a force to be reckoned with.  Perhaps he can float me a twenty?

If not, I'll have to hit the ATM later this afternoon.
