Title: Eeekk! Streaming Bounty
Post by: Weehawk on June 03, 2018, 10:38:48 pm
I will offer a $100 (usd) bounty for the highest score on Eeekk! by July 4, 2018. This was a 1984 game by Epos just added to MAME a few months ago.

You must use WolfMAME .186. (Because I already had it on my computer.  <thefinger>) Use MAME default settings. The inp file must play back for myself or someone that I trust.

You must stream the performance live on Twitch, and at the time of the performance must be listed in the forum's Twitch streamer list, administrated in this thread (https://donkeykongforum.net/index.php?topic=3.0), so that we can see when you are playing. Afterwards you will need to save a video of the game on Twitch and attach the inp file here.

Payment will be made by Paypal only. I reserve the right to invoke a one-hour time limit if players can play too long.

For the highest score so far at the end of each Sunday before July 4, I have a DK Forum t-shirt:

(Limit one per player and while sizes last. Currently 1 S, 1 M, 3 L, and 4 XL)

No recordings of this game have been submitted to MARP, but video of gameplay is available here:


I'm not going to lie to you, it's a shit game. (Hope they weren't going to use it for the Crap Tournament.)  I don't even understand why I'm dying half the time.

Twitch video is fine (though it's labeled as Final fantasy VIII), but the inp file ends way too soon. Wrong file maybe?

Guess I never specified "end of each Sunday" with a time.

We'll make it midnight US Eastern Daylight Time.

About 4 and a half hours from this post.

Yeah. I'll fire off a batch right after the Uncle Poo shirts sell out.

Okay Zerst, you the same size and address as last year?

And since you already have a DK Forum shirt, if you want to pick out an alternative shirt on Amazon and PM me the link, that's cool. Your choice.

Oh yeah...I forgot to post Sunday night. Nobody has improved on Zerst's June 6 offering.

I'll just assume everybody is out there practicing in secret. Foregoing the chance at a t-shirt to try to take the hundred bucks by surprise at the last minute. Or this game is just so bad nobody can even be bribed to play it.  FailFish
