Since I won't be around for a bit once again, can I just let you guys pick the next round, and I put in my two picks later on? (For Challenge # 45...)

Cool, so the deadline is extended for a few more days. Friday night, 6:60 PM EDT to be specific.

~~PAL~~ I can't promise you future game selection. Ignatius will probably win a game in the next one, but you beat my Dragon Breed score and I haven't won in a long time If you don't pick something the choice just goes to whomever you beat. If someone wants to give you a pick down the road, that's up to them. I'm betting your Space Invaders score doesn't hold up anyway.

I changed my Paperboy selection to Buster Bros, so Darius is now back in the mix. ~~PAL~~ can change those two choices if he wants. Keep in mind, there is no longer a set schedule for how long the thread lasts. First every game has to have a score posted, then the thread has to go dead for 3 days.

Wow. This is getting complex. You should ask for a per diem, Roto!

Dusted off my cow defender. Three tries later and the results are below. Might try riding the dragon tomorrow, if'n I can find the time. Don't know if I've ever had that pleasure before or not....! (Repeat that paragraph with a Benny Hill cadence, for maximum non-joke value.)

Pretty fun game...even if the designers didn't stray very far from their R-TYPE roots. How do you score an extra "dragon"? Does anyone know?

I guess I misinterpreted it last time. But just to be sure I got it this time, does the deadline keep extending for 72 hours until NOBODY posts a new screenshot?

Yes, you will get another dragon at 200,000 pt.

Bingo. Think of it like an auction, as soon as people quit bidding, we move on. So if you're going to pick games, do it soon, otherwise we play what's chosen and listed in the first post.

Good grief, Charlie Brown! That's the highest score I've ever seen established for an extra player (considering how long it takes to get there). I guess the designers didn't want too many people sailing past the industry standard of 90 seconds of play time per credit.
