interesting twist on the puzzle game we've played a dozen times. I saw something with a submarine that I think was a bonus stage, but it went by too fast.

That completely changes the gameplay. Does it just go through their arms or do they not jump? I don't think I would be able to get 12000 points on the first level without blocking. That was the quickest way I could score a point by blocking their first return, because it seems nearly impossible to serve an ace.

I think it serves you best NOT to block. You only eat up time, which is how you rack up a higher score. I'd rather run transition offense digging from the back row. You're playing as the Japanese team anyway. They're known for their defense.
I used to play this on the Turbo GraFX head to head against a friend. I'd pick the Swiss team(?) and let him choose whatever powerhouse team he wanted. I believe the Brazilian team(?) is the highest ranked IIRC. Also, there are certain offenses that work better against certain teams. Running the quicks, the tandem, and the backrow attack vs some teams makes things easier. Also, I do nothing but jump serve. Wastes little time and you can pretty much ace against the Cubans and the Chinese.

Hey Roto,
I thought you might be interested, I submitted my first MARP score.
I doubled the previous high score for Rampart (Trackball)

I never heard of MARP until you mentioned it here. Now I'm wasting too much time trying to beat a few of the scores. But most of them are outrageously high. I'm trying to beat the joystick versions of Rampart now.

getting close
Took me too long to beat Japan 17-16, but I made a decent showing against the USSR 13-15
I had to practice against Japan a lot before I could finally beat them

Yeah, so post a score that Ustimias can't beat so you can pick a better game Maybe he'll be busy for the holiday weekend! 
I just realized I'm still the leader for Uo Poko. I only played it the one time to see what it was. I'll pick Turkey Shoot if this is where the thread ends.
