Actually, no it's not, my score was higher than that, I just didn't post it. If you want me to for the contest thing, that's fine. This is a personal war. I can post it just so he sees it. Just didn't get it in on time and I figured that was following the rules.


Well that is silly if you are going to do it that way, your two "wins" mean nothing then. I can go back and crush your Trog score and I have no problem beating what ever Abadox score you may have.

C'mon Stan, you got to do this in a time frame no matter what. The contest is a good field for your personal war with Mog.

Well, if you look above you'll see that I WAS going to post the score, but I was only able to get back on three minutes after the deadline (next post). If you want to count my score, that's fine. The server or whatever here was screwed because students just came back from Spring Break and naturally flooded the internet because they had to catch up on a week's worth of homework. I wasn't able to get in until 10:03, which took awhile to load in the first place. The score was technically finished within the time frame, just not posted. Let me know if I can still submit based on the circumstances.

Well, this is the cruel part of it, you're responsible for posting your score before the deadline.
So... No

I still invite you to post your score just for fun.

The only time we have allowed for late submissions for the contests is if nintendoage itself is down, which happened a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately, we don't allow late submissions for home internet issues.

Also wanted to say that the leaderboard is now up to date. I also want to give guillavoie a huge thanks for posting the results for Abadox and getting this week's contest posted last night. Thank you very much for your help, man

Well, just so we're clear on the Mog war, the scores must be done within the time of the contest for the war. Doesn't matter if they're submitted for the contest, and they can't be beaten after. That's why I let his 1 stand on Archon, which I was going to beat him in, but I figured we'd just have back and forth forever, so within the context of the contest. No problem guys, I understand. Score coming when I get home from teaching tonight.

Hahahhaa, damn you Mog! Freaking Mog. I had a score! I just didn't post it in time! The war rules are different, this is a personal, internal war of hatred!

Alright boys, here is proof for the Mog war.  I know this can't be counted towards the overall contest due to the aforementioned rules, this is for the war!

338,580

I was actually quite close to guil.  I couldn't get the rest of the necessary points out near the last leg.  I just couldn't get a sufficient offensive strategy for the last leg of the final level where all the brains are flying at you.  It's probably best to avoid them and focus on the ships that go up and down, but then again your homing missiles will hit them occasionally anyway and then you have to spend time avoiding the stupid brains.  They are desctructible outside of their shells are they?

Edit: By the way, this was taken right before the final boss.  When I was messing around before getting this score I found it was hard to read the score during the actual fight, so I took it with the black background right before fighting it/her.

You might want to fix the time stamp on your camera. It says that pic was taken on 3/14 at 2:30pm

Nice try what? Do you have a guilty conscious about something?? I was only suggesting that you update the clock on your camera because it is obviously wrong, nothing else.

And I am not making anything up here, I am only stating facts. The time stamp on that picture, taken with your Canon Powershot A610, says 3/14 at 2:30pm. Check it out for yourself if you don't believe me.


Now that we have that issue straightened out, there shouldn't be any question about it in the future. 

PS, I just checked mine, it was off by about 20mins.

Ah ha, but wait, I altered the size of the image using a batch converter because the original size was too large to upload. That's not the original picture size, it was something 2500 pixels X something, I forget. The dimensions reveal this too, as does the location of the file, which was stored on the desktop after it was altered. Such a program will show you when the picture was last altered, but it will only show the last alteration, which in this case was NOT the time it was taken but when its size was changed. The sword stabs into your heart you damn Mog and I twist it as blood pours over my body!

Oh, but at that time you were in school and unable to post the picture. Are you telling me the picture modified itself before you were home from school? Or are you telling me you had access to the picture while at school and were modifying it there? But then why wait until you got home after school to post the picture? Oh man, I'm so confused now.

No, I just checked what I said, had originally read 3:30. At 2:30 I was at home eating. I put the picture on my computer while my chicken was cooking to post it later, which I did after 8.

Fixed.


And I am just poking fun. Don't really matter to me who may or may not have beat who.   We both know who is actually the best here, we don't need a silly weekly contest to prove that.

Hahahaaha, damn you Mog. I like how regardless of the error you made about the time of the picture being taken, you didn't deny that my score was in fact higher than yours.
