Oh, I am so in on this.

43200

Oh Boy Oh Boy Oh Boy.

150,000

I feared this day since the contests began! I'll submit my participation score soon

71,000

126200

Updated with new score....and it puts me up 2 spots!! lol. well, Im done

I like to think i'm a little better a t puzzlers, so here is my score for today. Maybe try again this evening and next weekend.

Dr. Mario... I always thought I was pretty good at this game, but after hearing people say that many poeple on this forum had "mastered" it, I'm not so sure how "good" I am anymore. Well, I'll just see how this plays out! Good Luck everyone.

238,200

I've never been able to do too much with this game, but I'll practice and see how it goes.

Ugh... not a fan of this game. I'll put up a score for the participation point though.

well, I had first for all of 1 hour!
Nice score Erizisto!

Ok first score of the week 22,600

232,600

Where's one of those nes advantage desk lamps when you need one? This is a personal best and I got past the dreaded level 17 and survived 18. Completely crapped out on 19 though.

It's on! God I love this game.

EDIT - new score below, old score 223,400

Tradition:

If all the Dr. Mario fans come out and play this week,that score (or mine) won't make top ten. Probably won't be even if they don't all play.

First try. Will try a few more times this week and see if I can get a better score

Lol, I guess I have some more practicing to do then! Oh well. I'll give it my best!

You can do it! I only expect a participation point. I'm mainly posting so I can show off my crappy drawing. Man I'm rusty

Glad I got plenty of practice in on this game during the Winter Finals. Playing at Hi speed back then should make this feel much easier in comparison.

Whoa! 

Campout Dr. Mario genius GameboyRicky!

I was told you were unbeatable in this game sir!

I think dra600n is pretty awesome at this as well. Would love to see him post something similarly epic.

Krunch, A.Thrower and GameboyRicky have already submitted a first try score.
If dra600n, Bella, rdrunner, arch_8ngel and dr.robbie post - along with the new crew of contestants, you're going to see some serious competition this week.
Those players are some of the very best from the "Old Guard" here on Nintendoage - and dare I say the world?

I'd soil my pants to witness an "Old School" vs. "New School" brawl this week.

dra600n is by far the best Mega Man 2 player I have ever seen - 
but from the folks I've spoken with... Watching GameboyRicky play Dr. Mario is like watching Leonardo DaVinci paint.
