Log o' Lar
« on: April 12, 2014, 09:13:06 am »
the Log o' Lar (incl. CAG events in Denmark EU)


Goals:
--
---
-- Play more /focus



I like to read blogs, so will give it a go: I'm 33 y/o, 1981, so unfortunately didn't appreciate arcadegames in the hay days being between the age of zero and six(!). Got interested in '92-'93 but by then is was hard to find machines in public, esp. in small Denmark..! And I got more into home gaming: NES, Amiga, some Sega and earlier 2600 and C64.
Then PlayStaion (1) for years; PS2, PS3.. Ha, haven't played modern consoles much these last years -- CAG is just more challenging  fun / frus c",)

Years later and KoK re-introduced me to arcade games, and then MAME was installed!
Now I also got 3 generic danish cabinets and some PCB's


PCB's /Cabs:
 
Bubble Bobble, Elevator Action, Psychic5, VsSMB, GaPlus, NeoGeo, ,

CompuGame CG-LUX1 25"
JK (small) 19"


Personal bests:
 
Elevator Action (103k, Dec2012) PCB
Paperboy Easy St (172k, Sep2010) MAME
Donkey Kong 250k MAME




CAG related meetings:

"I really need to do laundry."   ;)

Great score buddy!  And to think you're playing on a D-pad, wow!  Impressive.

Good tips too, thanks.

:) Yea, it's hard to predict when you'll get the broom,,(!) Improved a little today:

Bubbles PB: 341,920 on sink 44 (still PS2 D-pad, haven't re-tried a joystick yet..) c",)


Observations:

   -- Oil-slicks can cause acceleration (!) until now I thought the game was glitchy :oops:
   -- More sinks to avoid -> even now sink 4 and 6 often kill me (and sink 6 is low-scoring also)
