How to seperate the champs from the posers: Champs excel at a wide assortment of arcade games. Posers only play DK related games.

There is a List subforum. Perhaps a list is needed that actually separates Champs from Posers? First, I guess a consensus needs to be formed on the defining criteria of a Champ and a Poser to make it somewhat accurate, as the definitions up to this point have been quite subjective. Next, everyone needs to provide a list of arcade games you have played, and roughly how much time you have put into the respective games. High Scores would be nice to include as well. Steve is the moderator of the List forum, so he gets to should have the honor of placing individuals into their proper classifications.  :)

Let's make this happen. I could make a pretty persuasive argument for being number one on the poser list.

I die the instant I so much as think about point-pressing because just looking at the bottom hammer makes the game infinitely harder, I'd never heard of Donkey Kong or arcade games until the King of Kong was available to Watch Now on Netflix, I hate, fear, avoid, and suck at all video games that are not Donkey Kong-related, I'm addicted to MAME (I play every day), and my self-esteem is based solely around how everyone feels about me and my accomplishments in relation to these facts.

Hey Mark, we both are champs!  We got those badges on the bottom that say so! ;)

ChrisP for Poser President, 2013.

How about Parker Posey as a running mate?

Yeah, I know it's not an exact match, but it's close enough.

I have over a million points in pacman so maybe that means I am not a poser. ;)
