You'd better come back and play. I'll let you know if 1942 pops up again ]]> NintendoAge 2013 Weekly Contest Presents: Donkey Kong http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=96401 2013-02-25T22:13:49 -05.00 bimmy_lee 269  Pretty cool that we had 51 competitors, amazing turn out!

Awesome Too bad you didn't have much time to play. I'd love to see the stream of your kill screen run!

Just out of curiousity, how long did it take you to achieve the TG record?


Well, honestly, might have not improved my score with more time, If I play too much, I get bored and lose focus!  Just glad I got a good run in, after starting with a couple of short duds.

My high score for TG took roughly 7.5 hours, But if you mean how long I've been playing, luckily I started keeping a log, after getting the idea from Miss Clawful:
My first game was 2-18-2011, and I set the record 3-17-2012, so almost 13 months.  I played somewhere around 170 games, starting with a modest 12,400 on my first try, (not even completing loop 1).

Nice score, JD!  Good luck going for the kill screen.  Let me know if you're able to stream your attempts and I'll be sure to cheer you on!
 


Thanks Tom, my wife plans to take her mother on a birthday trip, sometime in late March; I'm staying home, so that weekend should hopefully work!
 

Anyway.....good luck with Gradius everyone!

I notice it says a number between 1 and 50. Does that mean 1 and 50 weren't possible?

Congrats lerugray! And congrats everyone who manged to get into the top 10. I was played out after Dr. Mario. I didn't try Donkey Kong until the weekend and I regret it. On to gradius!

1 and 50 were possible numbers.  I tested the number generator prior to assigning numbers and I was able to get both numbers.
