Brian, was your last comment constructive? Seems like you grasping at straws to find a reason to burst George's bubble.

I think George's bounty will go a long way in garnering support for this game -even if the things you say about marp are true. People love gaming. And people love getting paid to game.  ;D

I'm with you on this. I'd much prefer to try this on an arcade machine. But I need a DK3 board and edge connector, which the prize money would help me acquire.

Bit of a chicken and egg situation for me :)

I would definitely play if there were a local arcade machine. I just can't bring myself to play full games on mame. I think I've come to love the physical machines and their accompanying atmosphere too much. ;)

I posted a link on the aussie arcade forum so you might get some bites there,
And a bit OT but I consider my good friends the ones that will tell me I'm being a d..k or that I should pull my head in, they will even go as far as to throw me a can of BO basher and say spray some you smell after work. Now that's a good mate ;).
Back on topic again good luck with the bounty and count me in for another $50 (depending on what the exchange rate does to it;) )
Just pm an let me know how it's being collected.

Brian why all the negativity? I'm genuinely curious or is your disposition generally like that?

Anyway, George that's great that people in the community are contributing, in one way or another, to give this title some more love. It's never a bad thing to get more people competing on a title, and I'm sure you are hungry for some competition at this point since you've basically destroyed everybody at it so far.

I will probably play some games just for fun because of all the DK3 chatter. Good luck everyone.

People from Europe do like Shooter games, and DK3 is at least a quasi shooter game.  So it may actually have some interest.


P.S.

I posted about it now on the MARP forums!  8)
You might want to post on the shmup forums as well: http://shmups.system11.org/index.php

They usually play newer and more straight-up shooters, but they have a lot of very good shooter players there and the $500 might attract some interest.

Well if things continue to go the way they are at work I'll soon be unemployed and have lots of time for gaming
and this bounty.  They took our water coolers a few months ago, cleaning crew stopped coming a few months
ago, our other cleaning service stopped a few months ago, and yesterday they came and took the rugs from under
our feet.

If I do get layed off I'll be coming for this bounty.

This is one of the few times where I hope someone doesn't have the opportunity to go for my bounty.

Why George ?

I thought that was the point of having it?

You want to see someone do this right?

Does everything really have to be spelled out for you?   When I said someone, I am specifically referring to John Mcallister, and his situation.  If he has the opportunity to get this bounty, than he loses his job.  If you can't understand why I would not want that to happen, than I don't know what to say.

Yep Ross is out to get me :)

I don't mind loosing my job, will give me a chance over the summer to see just how much into
running an arcade I want to do.  I've got 10 games out on route now and would like to find
out if I could actually run a full time route or be more active in an arcade.

I'm figuring though that someone will take this bounty before I even get a chance to go after
it.

Well it looks like Ben Falls is really starting to take a charge at this.  Just saw a replay of a game he did last night where he hit 2,057,300, and got to board 106.  Only 54 boards away from the Repetitive Blue Screen.  So all those who think they have all the time in the world to wait on this, well better think again. 8)
