Well I'm not kidding around. Anyone who has a tournament win in CAGDC, BOTA, Grinkers, Yolympics, IGBY, Funspot/Brofest, and the Arcade world championship is a more accomplished gamer than me. I can't make the top ten even if the games are in my favor like BOTA was with DK3, Moon Patrol, and Zaxxon.

Most  <Pigger> game of all-time?

https://www.arcade-museum.com/game_detail.php?game_id=7902

The game plays very similarly to Qix - you control a "line" that must avoid monsters: spiders in screen 1, flames and the sun in screen 2, and a rotating 3d triangle in screen 3 that splits into tons of little figures, including a careening stick of butter, at one point.

Chicago scene is underrepresented (you'll find some other great players by referring to Aurcade, past BOTA standings, past MAME events, and high score boards on the local arcades' web sites.

Jamie Tibbetts and James White should be on this list. Fred is great but they are more accomplished than him. There are a few others that are very accomplished as well.

(By the way, I am not implying that I should be on the list... I am nowhere near the level of Jamie, James, and some of the other players in that area.)

Edit: Fred will kill me if he sees this... HAHA!!!

Not sure where to place myself...
I’ll say just above Allen Staal and a bit below BA...

I truly believe I probably would have been thought of as a much better Arcade gamer if I had spent the 3,000 hours of time I have played DK, DKJr, and DK3 on a wide variety of 100 arcade games instead. 

Edit I wouldn't change a thing though.  Very happy about my time spent on these games. :)
