OK, rolling!

I thought it was just being called "DKWR 2" not by conscious decision but by default. There appear to be details involved that I was most definitely unaware of, that's exciting.

So at some point in the next few days I'm gonna update my blog with an announcement/summons to this tournament.

But first, we need a name for it!

Since it's an open tourney (aside from the million-point exemption), this one really has no particular or essential connection to the Kong Off wildcard division, and is not a "rematch," so "Donkey Kong Wildcard Tournament Rematch #2" leaves a lot to be desired.

Anybody got any clever ideas? My brain isn't in title mode right now.

And I guess it doesn't need to be clever.

I don't know, The DK Open? The Kong Klassic?

In any case, we're gonna have to call it something...

How about "Gorilla Warfare"?

Everybody get the feeble play on words there (gorilla vs. guerilla)?  Vincent?

Sorry, I just woke up, and that's the first pseudo-clever suggestion that came to mind.

Anyway, it's a moot point.  I see the naming of the event has already been decided.

I do not ;-) haha.

I don't really know how it could be called. Something like:"The Kong Off But Only The People With Less Than 1M Can Participate Because The Ones Above 1M+ Might Be Too Good So People With A High Score Of Just Like 800K Would Not Have Enough Chances To Win, And We Want Fair Chances For Everyone, And Estel Goffinet Can Participate At 999,800"

2:World Record of the most Check Man games played - 6 (tied with Hank Chien)

Good luck fitting all that on a T-Shirt.  There wouldn't be any room left over for Allen's face!

Speaking of t-shirts, maybe someone could make a few of these:

Front:  There's a Donkey Kong Kill Screen coming up, if anyone is interested
Back:  Just not yours

Vincent,  that was actually the original name, but we had to go with something else cause my printer was low on ink.

Ok. I'm a little late to the party but better late than never. I see you're looking for names how about wildcard rematch the best of the rest. Since the very best aren't playing. Or donkey kong one king to rule them all. Lol. Anyways I really got on here to find out submitting for arcade. Will I need to do a full walk through of my cabinet because it's kinda hard tethered to a computer with limited cord available. I just want to know the full rules to play for arcade. Thanks again for the fun opportunity. Havent played a whole lot But hope to get a few games in around work and kids sleep.

the rules are not up on the new website yet, and i think there will be a change in the dk rules shortly to make it less hassle, but you will certainly need to do a full walkround so you may need to get a usb extention if you are using a webcam...

in the meantime if you want to use the old rules Hank did some video demos http://www.classicarcadegaming.com/forums/index.php?topic=3584.0

Ok. I got stuff set up pretty much. Just gotta get the audio working and I need to get better quality for the video. Just sent in my registration. Hopefully everything is okay with that. Looks like we'll be having some million point players playing. Good luck to everyone!

I forgot to take off work for the competition. I'm really going to have time to put in one attempt... haha... If I win that won't make sense. Good luck everyone.
