Ok, I have assigned everyone who participated this week a random number to win the prize.  ookii_risu is the only one exempt at her own request since she is helping fund the prizes.  Thanks ookii   I will be using a random number generator to determine the winner and will post the picture on here as soon as I pick the number.  I was able to get the sticker off the back of the game, but it left a couple of very small wear marks on the edge of the back label.  The game has also been cleaned and tested and powered up the first time I stuck it in my NES.  The winner won't be disappointed in this game   I will send the winner a PM after the drawing.  There are 50 people eligible for the game so everyone will be assigned a number 1 through 50.  Here's everyone's number:

1 - AceEbb
2 - khog143
3 - fredoche
4 - WashYourFace
5 - hitmantommy
6 - milesp1
7 - SAG26
8 - gnarblast
9 - lerugray
10 - Shane
11 - Chrono
12 - MegaMartyr
13 - Peteroski
14 - RegularGamerGuy
15 - guillavoie
16 - jaygames
17 - Space Jockey
18 - Darkjudge1
19 - NintendoTwizer
20 - rdrunner

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!

-------------------------
I am searching for the following SNES manuals:
- Sunset Riders    - TMNT IV: Turtles in Time      - Total Carnage
- Utopia                 - Final Fantasy II
Please PM me if you have one or all of them for sale. While I like nice condition, I am interested in anything 7/10ish up.

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

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!

^^Sorry, JD, I didn't see your post until now. That's amazing how far you came to achieve that goal. Something to aspire to, for sure (although I doubt I could get myself to sit down and play for 7 hours straight without a break).

You'd better come back and play. I'll let you know if 1942 pops up again
