Below is a text dump of my 2016 goals. Chronic back issues really put a damper on me reaching these goals, but I also, once again, prioritized gaming quite low on my list of must-do for the year. However, working at Up Down now has really started to accelerate me back into the hobby.
THE FOLLOWING IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND BEING UPDATED TO REPRESENT MY 2016 GOALS
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Preface to 2016 goals: Since I now work at Up Down (a barcade) in Minneapolis, I hope to be able to resume some of my gaming goals -primarily in terms of my Arcade gaming goals, but I might even add some Pinball goals. I'll also probably be adding in some Fighter game goals to expand my horizons a bit. I got a newer Mac in early 2016, so I hope to get a better camera by the end of this year so maybe I can resume streaming on twitch every so often (I don't have a smuch time as I did back in college). I will be removing many of my console goals for the time being since my consoles are in storage for probably at least the next year. And, yes, I know some of the scores listed as the "WR" are inaccurate. For now I just took the scores I found on Twin Galaxies' website. I'll make those more accurate as I look more closely into each game.
General Note: This list can be changed to be made harder as I see fit. If I am finding a goal too easy, I will bump it up a bit. Already done this with several games in the past. I'll be noting when I up a PB in the main thread if it is significant and then editing this first post as I progress.
GENERAL GOALS: (2016 goals are in red)
60-in-1 game goals:
Note: I intend to put my 60-in-1 cab at my church with my high scores listed on the side with bounties (probably candy bars/pop) for if any of the youth can beat my top scores. This will hopefully motivate me to up my scores!

CRUIS'N USA:
Note: I became an owner of a CUSA upright arcade cab in 2014, so this will allow me more opportunity to pursue improving my CUSA times this year. In 2014 I also introduced myself to some of the twitch.tv streamers of the N64 version of this game and they ended up finding some evidence of even better times having been performed on this game bitd (
https://donkeykongforum.net/index.php?topic=100.msg13851#msg13851), so now there is more incentive for me to continue trying to improve on this game.
2016 goal: Get the WR on every CUSA Arcade track:
Key:
* means I have the WR
# means this race is only available during the 'all-tracks' race, and thus (usually) requires much more effort to play and improve on
Note: I will be playing all tracks on the hardest difficulty for the 2016 year on forward.
