Going forward the competition will have two games running at a time.  They are separate leaderboards, with their own points awarded.  You can compete in one or the other, or both.

This appears to trip people up so I'm posting it again:  If you post an updated score please re-use your original post, or create a new one and remove your old score.  That will make my life easier sorting things out.

January Game #1: Turtles in Time

Rules
  • Goal -> Progress
  • Tiebreaker -> Deaths (for complete runs), then high score
  • Bonus Point -> no-death the game
  • Play on Normal difficulty
  • Start a new 1-player game with the character of your choice
  • You are allowed 2 lives
  • Upon losing your second life you must immediately pause the game and take your pic
January Game #2: Super Mario Kart
Rules

  • Goal -> Fastest combined time from 4 tracks
  • Bonus Point -> Time under 5'00"
  • Select Time Trial.  You will need to submit times for the following tracks
  • Bowser Castle 1
  • Ghost Valley 2
  • Vanilla Lake 1
  • Koopa Beach 2
  • You will need to submit 4 different pictures, each from race's end.  Do not submit scores from the track selection screen.  Please also put all 4 pics in the same post.
  • Your final time will be the cumulative results of the 4 tracks.  Anyone who cannot submit times for all 4 tracks can still earn participation credit for partial submissions
  • If it helps you keep track of your best scores easier, your save data can be erased by starting up the game and then pressing L + R + A + X + Y.  This will re-lock the Special Cup
  • Unlocking the Special Cup is done by placing 1st in the first three cups on 50CC and 100CC
  • The Special Cup can also be unlocked by the following method:  Go to Time Trial or 2P Match Race, put the cursor on Mushroom Cup and press: L,R,L,R,L,L,R,R,A. You will need to input this each time you turn the system on, but your times will keep

What difficulty do we play on for Turtles in Time?

-------------------------
Thanks for writing. I apologize for the delay in responding to your email during this busy time of year.
In regard to your email, it is great to hear that you have found a copy of Perfect Dark for the Nintendo 64. Perfect dark was a first person shooter game that was released in May of 2000. I personally enjoyed this game a lot during my mid-teen years since it allows for up to four players to play at one time. All the Perfect Dark cartridges were black.

I hope this information is what you are looking for.

-
Response I received from Nintendo customer support when I asked if they knew any thing about a black Perfect Dark cart.

I'll hop back into these this year. I'm a mediocre player compared to some here but it's always fun to try.

Shouldn't be. I made a conscious decision to do an easier lineup this time with there being 2 games now, plus the distraction of the "Beat Every" threads

nah its anyone who wants to play. People only saving a spot on the first page for their scores so its easier to find and update. I started doing it after the Street Fighter II competition. Updated my score several times and there were a lot of pages to go through to find my score update post.

Level 3 boss. Pretty sure I'd have beaten him if I hadn't stupidly lost a life to the level 2 boss.
