My Classic Video Game Hall of Fame 2024

[homerwannabee]

I had a terrible 2008, then from 2009-2012 I took PEDs.   

Also known as beer.

I am hearing quite the Protest for me not getting into the Hall Of Fame.   It's Your thing you keep doing it .  I think really active players should not go into the hall of fame so early .

Brian, what exactly do you believe is your top reasons for being selected? By all means, make a case. I'm all ears. You have some qualifications.
1. One of the early rank d players
2. You've had records, and still have some
3. Great rivalry with Allen Staal

There's nothing that stands out.  You're a good player overall, but for the most part I have either amazing players or players with a major historical achievement.  Like being a record holder in Donkey Kong.
Outside of the Kongs there's not many very good scores on the all time greats. I know you have a decent 1942 score, and I think you have a good Galaxian score, but you'd need about 48 more very good scores like that.
Also, it's OK to not be great, or even good at the great games, but I expect a person then to do very good overall in tournaments.  Like Yolympics or the crap tournament.
You have none of that

then i completely disagree with you getting in...   LOL Nothing standing out really.. that's sad coming from you.

Make your case. Talk about your scores on games I haven't played.  Go ahead. Make an argument why you should be inducted.
What am I missing?

[homerwannabee]

OK, I did a deep dive on MARP. You have scores I respect
Juno First 999k very good job. I think my best is 600k or something and I love this game
King & Balloon 68k a decent score
Dark Tower 2nd place 15 million. A very good score
Intrepid 169k former record. You helped popularize the game
Mad Alien 41k
Mario Bros 148k. Not a great score, but better than I can do. Very decent score
Pooyan 356k.  Yeah, great job with this score. Another game I really like where you do better than me
Red UFO looks like you're 2nd now 68k is still a good score
Sky Skipper 48k.  I have a better score, but still decent
Space Firebird 62k 2bd definitely one of your better scores. I got 14k and put time on it
Tutankham decent 26k
Zupapa 4th out of 16 scores. Very decent
1942-I think your score is 589k better than my 400k something score. I put a lot of time on this one
You definitely liked playing clones. I didn't really count any of those.

So, overall you're a good gamer, but you miss the cut.

Red UFO looks like you're 2nd now 68k is still a good score looks like the person that beaten my score did not follow the Special rules set for that game.

[Simpsons99]

Red UFO looks like you're 2nd now 68k is still a good score looks like the person that beaten my score did not follow the Special rules set for that game.

The special rules state "Version to use Mame 139 or later", and "that person" used WolfMAME version 230. Not sure why you always try to knock down the achievements of others dude, but it ain't a good look.

If you're going to toot your own horn about how good you are, don't get salty about being in 2nd place, get better.

I responded thusly in the Regulation Play forum at MARP.

[homerwannabee]

I googled or later just to make sure I was correct.  It said

"'Later' means a period of time which is in the future."

This is not a past tense thing Brian.  So, I hate to break it to you, it is you who is in violation of the rules.

Here's a link to a "Guts Theme" MEME to comfort you.
