The DK3 $550 repetitive bluescreen bounty

(1/20) > >>

homerwannabee:
Give or take a few dollars the bounty is now up to $550!  As Vincent would say "Oh Yeah!"

OK, I am doing this for selfish reasons.  I want to see someone hit the repetitive bluescreen besides myself.  8)  Here is what I expect of this person in order to qualify for the bounty. 

1) The first person to hit the repetitive bluescreen gets the prize.  If someone does it after the first person, they get nothing.

2) In order to qualify a person has to hit board 160.  This is where in Donkey Kong 3 the blue board repeats for the first time back to back.  If you get to board 159, the first bluescreen it does not count.

3) The person has to stream themselves doing this live.  I don't care if it's Twitch, Justin.Tv, Ustream or whatever.  Just stream it live.

4) The person has to submit the score to MARP.  If this is done on an Arcade, than I require that you save your video to whatever site you are streaming.  So favorite it if you are on Twitch or Justin.tv.

5) I am allowing this to be done on any settings(Meaning your can do it on Easy, Medium, Hard, or Very Hard.  It's your choice).  So yes Easy/default settings(The easiest settings) are allowed. 

6) This must be done by the end of this year.

7) Have to start out with 3 men plus an extra every 30,000 (That's default settings)

So what does the person get as a prize?

1. $550 (Thanks big time to Ken House, Ross Benziger, Danman123456, Eric Tessler, Monstabonza and pretty cool anonymous donor for the bounty!)
2. Walter Day's autograph on his Twin Galaxies card
3. My autograph on my Twin Galaxies card.  From what I understand this card is still not put in any set, thus making it extremely hard card to get
4. A Twin Galaxies Arcade Token from back in the day.

I will pay shipping for this prize of course.  Thanks for reading this, and hopefully this inspires you to go for the repetitive bluescreen! 8)

I'm not really familiar with the history of DK3 so maybe I'll give it a shot, for the hell of it.  I'll probably need a quick crash-course in the basics. :) Are the record scores on TG up-to-date? If not, where do the records stand with arcade vs. MAME, marathon vs. tourney settings, etc.?

I took a quick look at the game...I'm guessing it's going to take at least a couple of hours to get from board 1 to 160? Three board colors?  Blue, brown/green, and grey? Score rolls over at 1m, but do extra lives roll over?

The lives do not roll over, but the game does give you 34 extra men plus the 3 you start out with prior to rolling over.

No.  According to the rules above, it has to be done on any setting.  After that there is some verbiage about easy settings but the first part supercedes anything after it by definition making the rest moot.  Moot.
