2K bounty for anyone that beats the fake TG score of 558k on Dragon's Lair TG 5 man settings!
Yep that's right TWO THOUSAND DOLLALRS! to beat 515k let alone the fake TG score of 558.
Both emulator and arcade are acceptable Must be 5 man game that ends after first Dragon's Lair sequence. No more than 5 live can be used on any settings
2K for NOT even beating the fake TG WR.
TG is a fake score keep organization , KoK proved that
Judd Boone, Billy Mitchell and Steve Webie should get together and go bowling instead!

I really hope <Tim> will try to beat this. He's a really good DL player.

Stranger Things is a great show. Good to see you posting Tim, hope all is well.

<Tim> is the original poster :)
Knows more about DL than anyone I reckon, if the score was possible he'd have beat it already.

Speaking of trying to beat things, didn't you say you were going for my five man Donkey Kong 3 record last year. How's that going?
-
Not really going for it but I progressed quite well. Got a 700k score. Played on 60-1 card. Dont know the difficulty setting though. Thought about a Mame setup to record but suddenly got stuck at many 300-400k scores. Got bored. Sold the 60-1 card. Started playing modern games such as Bloodborne and Dark souls 3. Havent gone back since. Maybe I will this winter. Lame excuses but true..

Yoooo! Is this in the trailer? I didn't think Season 2 was out until October 31...?

The default settings for Donkey Kong 3 on MAME is easy settings. Still, it's a real good score. Given your skill level for bullet hell games, I was definitely wondering about your progress. Given, you had trouble, I consider it an honor that you had some trouble because a lot of the shooter games you have finished are super hard to finish.
-
OT discussion here but the Cave shooters you mention arent that hard really. Depends on if you play for score or survival. DK 3 isnt that hard really either but I die with sooo stupid deaths all the time. But I guess thats why its so hard as well. :)

Oh, DoDonpachi was a Yolympics game a year and a half ago. I put some serious time into it during those five weeks, and the best I could do was the middle of area 5. So I have no clue how that's easy for you. Especially that game since it's known as an easier bullet hell game.

The Dragon's Lair challenge is the same as I've done for years but TG "best" gamers have yet to even com close.
5 man setting, "ANY" dip switch setting, any Cinematronics rom revision,any substitute LD player via conversing PCb as well as emulator is allowed
Game must only use 3 or 5 lives and end after completion of the first Dragon's Lair sequence Everything else is acceptable. Rom revisions A-F2, and disc player and emulator are allowed @k bounty on just 515k on the game let alone the bogus Twin Galaxy WR of 558k
Just think of the publicity if Silly Bitchell were to do this (LOL)
Disc player skipping according to TG officials is acceptable So if your using an original LD player feel free to bump and kick that player as it plays for extra points. LOL =)
2K bounty for anyone that beats 515k on the arcade cinematronics Dragons Lair KoK was based on bullshit and so is their Dragon's Lair arcade 558,xxx WR.
I will be expecting to pay out TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS SHORTLY!
-
I'm sure if there a movie deal and ...MONEY>>>>involved Silly B. will cah in on it as he always does fake or not.

Tim you have a scoring chart that you showed on stream once on why the Dragon's Lair record is not possible. Is there any chance you can share that chart in a post? I found it very informative.

I'm fairly sure Jeremy has the whole stream somewhere, could be his or DKF's Youtube channel.

I will have to make another. Just to make the contest interesting I will put up $50 for first person that breaks into the 490k's. That offer will stand until November 1st 2017. Again rules are only 3 or 5 lives can be used "ANY" difficulty setting' any rom revision from revA-F2' (Cinematronics roms only) any LDP combo ' emulator or arcade. (hitting disc player to skip the disc is allowed).
Only restrictions: No more than 5 lives can be used with any 1983 Cinematronics hadware/ rom set' and game ends after the first Dragon's Lair sequence.
558 is NOT possible.
-
(hitting disc player to skip the disc is allowed).
Tim -- Can you go into more detail about this in regards to at what point in the game this is beneficial and how it benefits the player? This intrigues me since I am a casual player on the game, who has never played for score but merely to finish it on a credit. I had never heard of this technique before Thanks.

I went through and compared Tim's notes to a Youtube video of a Very Hard score run. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipZowCPlvX0 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipZowCPlvX0))
Tim's numbers are off in a few places, but he's pretty close to what I came up with as the max possible score (I got 506,015; Tim has 509,813).
I made a spreadsheet with the data. (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nvftav3OL35RkAKVjsnDAH0agHDtsyRkew_pHGCCDms/edit?usp=sharing)

Wow awesome stuff, Zerst
Are there more runs somewhere so you can verify the ones that weren't shown in that vid?
If this spreadsheet is complete, along with videos to back-up each boards score, I'd consider starting the dispute to get the score removed.
