Hello everyone and welcome to the latest installment of the NA Weekly Contest : Wrecking Crew. The story goes like this :

Once upon a time, there was Billy Lee, the youngest son of a humble peasant family living in a far, far away kingdom. There was also a game called Wrecking Crew, and Billy Lee was very good at it, like really really good, better than his twenty-seven brothers, better than his old father and even better than the King. Living in this kingdom was also Bo Abobo, but he was very bad at Wrecking Crew, like really really bad, and he was jealous of Billy Lee's talent at Wrecking Crew.

One day, the King decided to held a prestigious Wrecking Crew tournament, and pick those rules to be followed :
  • Play until Game Over
  • You must start on Phase 1
  • You cannot earn any extra lives.  You can only use your 5 original lives
  • 1 Loop only (100 stages)
  • Highest score wins
  • Participation score : 25,000

The winner of the tournament would have one wish granted by the King. Bo Abobo was determined to win the tournament at all cost, and he knew he had to cheat to have any chance at beating the young and heroic Billy Lee. But, Bo Abobo was even worst at cheating than playing Wrecking Crew, and it was pretty obvious during the tournament. So the King decided to hang him after the end of the tournament.

Billy Lee won the tournament in an epic battle against Tom Votava, a battle that was so epic that I can't tell you without making it less epic, so we'll skip that part of the story, okay? Cool! When the King sacred Billy Lee best Wrecking Crew player of the seven worlds (did I told you there was seven worlds? Well there was, and this story was in the world where Wrecking Crew is important, like serious business important), he was so hasty to hang Bo Abobo that he forgot about the wish he promised to grant. So, Billy Lee halt the King in his lynch mob party, and said 'Can I get my wish already bro?'

The King felt like a fool and was very embarrassed by his error, like really really embarrassed. So he paused the hanging procedure and asked Billy Lee to make his wish. Billy Lee said : 'I want you to save the life of Bo Abobo, and to marry us on this very day'. The King was really confused at first, like really really confused, cause what Billy Lee wished was like two wishes and not one. But, Billy Lee reminded him that the last time he won a Wrecking Crew tournament he forgot to grant him his wish, so that he owed him a wish for this tournament and another for that other tournament. The King verified in his Royal Registry, and Billy was right. In fact, the King had such a backlog of wishes to grant to so many peasants that he feared for a moment he would be the one hanged, so he quickly changed the subject and granted Billy Lee's wishes. He married him with Bo Abobo and held a grand feast in honor of their wedding.

In a clear lapse of judgement, the King decided to give Billy Lee and Bo Abobo half of his kingdom and way too much money, like really really too much money. So Billy Lee and Bo Abobo lived happily ever after in their half of the kingdom, and had many children, like way too much children to handle for Bo Abobo.

THE END

The contest ends Sunday, 7/31/16 at 11 PM NA time.  Your user name MUST be written or typed on a piece of paper and be in the picture for your score to be valid.  The entire TV screen, or computer monitor if you are playing on an emulator, MUST be in the picture for the score to be valid.  No partial screenshots will be considered or accepted.  No screenshots by hitting "print screen" on a computer will be allowed.  You must take a picture of your computer monitor.  There may be instances where this will be acceptable, but it will be at the discretion of myself and the contest organizers.  Also, the use of turbo controllers is forbidden, as well as any cheat codes, Game Genies, slow motion functions, or save states if playing on an emulator.  Also, we will only be using NTSC systems for the contests.  The use of PAL systems will NOT be allowed.  Good luck everyone and have fun

Careful not to press select during gameplay or you'll go back to the main menu and your score reset to 0.

The rule against extra lives must be to prevent point racking. I had to look it up and you get extra lives by finding hidden letters.

I might sit this one out this week. I will have busy nights this week due to... stuff. Pure, chaste and innocent stuff.

A paragon of purity, chastity and innocence.

I guess you can't do 1up loops then because you pretty much have to break everything to advance,whether there's a letter behind the wall or not.

I was thinking that it's possible on some stages to get the letters for a 1up, kill yourself, and keep doing it, and that's why 1ups are banned. So that is incorrect.

That's the main problem, you can do this forever. Or, you can subconsiously be playing more carelessly once you got the 1up and know that if you die you'll just grab it again. Plus, it makes a run more quick and more challenging to play with only 5 lives.
