DK Score Submissions

[LMDAVE]

The Level 1-1 track is still under-construction and like the high score list will have a minimum score requirement. I will need to decide what that will be. Any suggestions anyone?

Well, the number I would pick would be 10,000. Breaking 10K was what originally brought up tracking 1-1 to see how far it could be pushed. So, I would say if you haven't broken 10K then no need to submit yet.

Ouch! 

I know my 8,200 is actually a sh*t score...just wanted to throw something up while the list was empty.  I agree with a 10,000 cut-off as well.

If it were a CAGDC tourney, minimum score would either be 2500 or 17k.

I, Joe Kassel, am submitting a score of 338,100 for DK on MAME. Achieved on 7/24/2013 http://www.twitch.tv/summeraino/c/2629094 (highlight shows startup).

As I said before, feel free to post any kind of improvement in your games on this thread. Today I got a new high score on my cabinet, scoring 901,200 points. My mame score is higher but this is still an improvement on the cab while practicing for the Kong Off 3 and trying to get a million points. Here is the link: http://www.twitch.tv/clchambers00/c/2647415. I actually cried at the end so I left that out of my highlight, lol.

http://www.twitch.tv/f_symbols/c/2651374  Upped my 1-1 score today by 600pts.  When watching the replay, I noticed nothing special about the screen, so I'm somewhat surprised by the final score (11900).

Chris Psaros - 903,700 - new PB, kill screen #5!

http://www.twitch.tv/chrisp_kreme/c/2655002

Goal pace was 915K, I pulled back near the end to stay safe (my REAL goal was just to crack 900K, and the 915K pace was a redundancy, so I got what I wanted).

I didn't realize there was a little scoreboard cluster right around there. If I'd known that I could have jumped from 33rd to 29th with 5K more, I would have pushed a little harder.  Maybe edge out JC by 100 points and then kill off my last guy.

10 minutes of "post-game commentary" start at 1:53.

It's nuts that this is 33rd on our list, yet it would be good for 16th at TG, by just 300 points. (In fact, #16 himself was there, sweating my last kill screen hammer smash! 300 points! BOOM! No tie for you!)

Now I'm DEFINITELY taking a break until the tourney...

Hello.  I, Jason Nugent, am submitting my new DK (US Set 1) MAME score of 328,900 achieved on 7/31/2013.  I am attaching the .inp and .wlf files in a zip archive.  It was streamed live on Twitch, the link is http://www.twitch.tv/jnugent74/c/2671315.  Thanks, and take your time posting it.  There is one very brief false start at the beginning of the twitch link.

I don't see a ZIP file attached here.

Oops.  Just realized... here it is.

Nice scores, Joe, Ethan, Chris, Jason. I will be updating your scores tomorrow. Sorry, I have been more focused on playing, applying for jobs (may be a hardware sales associate at Walmart), and getting a new donkey kong machine. Forgive me Joe, I think you have been waiting the longest.

Duplicate Ranking (Donkey Kong High Score List)

Jeff and Shayne are both listed at #29 (below):

Rank		Source		Score		Player		Date		Platform

29		Youtube / Peer		905,700		Shayne Black		08/14/2012		Arcade

Hey Corey, when the latest scores are updated, could you also correct the duplicate rank issue?  You may have missed the original post, as it was first mentioned in the General Discussion thread.

Perhaps I've been out of the loop (Twitch chat, shoutbox, etc.), but what happened to the DK cabinet you obtained a few weeks ago?

[corey.chambers]

Nice work Jeremy! I will get your improvement updated today as well.

Scott, I will try to remember to fix that issue. My wife had suggested I buy another, and use the best parts from both to make a better one and then either fix the other one up well, sell it in whole or in parts, or keep in case something breaks on the other. And I said, sure! So I now have two cabs. Besides, I want to learn how to build cabinets and fix these. I already learned things last night about cabs just because I had another one to look at. I can see what the screw sizes are for myself on the most recent cab.
