Your score does put you in second place for the world records Elgin, which can't be bad at all.

By the end of the week that'll all have changed.

Well, first time ive had a real go at it. The controls are a bit annoying and take some getting used to but not turning out as bad as i first thought.

Glad everyone likes the choice. Its another of those 'picked because it is good' and not because I am good.

Hopefully will get my first go tomorrow.

It's the Suntory version as it's the only one that doesn't lock up on me.

Not as good as the gaming gods ;) but it'll do.

It won't do. We all have to be playing the same game. You'll need to sort out your emu issues, else you may have an unfair advantage - bootleg roms often have slight variants in the gameplay (different bonuses etc).

First things first - what version of MAME do you have and have you grabbed a recent romulan?

I'll get a score up this week, all being well.

I take it you've sorted this out then?

A small improvement but i think i'm still doing something wrong with the scoring - the game directly before this i got to round 8 but only had about 55,000 as a score :-(

I also had a situation where there must easily have been around 9 or 10 empty glasses floating back along the bars and was concentrating so much on not letting them drop people managed to get to the end of the bar :-(

I've still not managed a proper game of this yet, so much on this week I even missed my usual Wednesday night bout.

Mrs Ant's birthday today, so no chance until tomorrow now.

Boy is this frustrating :P

Still, it is a nice game, love the colours - though the graphics look like a 12 year old has drawn them :) .. Is it worth going for the money all the time as I don't know if i am alone in this but I find it extra confusing when the punters turn round to see the can-can girlies and not want the beer - which I just chucked at them ! ..

Money is worth 1500 points a time, so yes, go get it! You just have to watch carefully and see which people turn around...

Other score must be an old score

New jobs playing havoc with my gaming time. Think I may have to quit if things keep up like this - job, not the gaming :D

Another week seems to go by so quickly that I forgot all about the league again. I played this game a couple of times last Sunday but thought I would play it again later in the week and post a score, unfortunately that never happened. Then I was sitting watching highlights of the Scotland game (what a result by the way!!!) on Sky Sports a few minutes ago and thought 'Ohh Sh*t, the retro league'.

That said, I posted a score too late and accept that. Oh well there is always next week :D
