I want to repeat (and I've said this many times this year) that everyone should go for progress first and low score second. The low score thing is in place to break ties if people have runs that end in the same exact spot. A run that ends in stage 5-1 with a score of 500,000 beats out a run that ends on 3-1 with a score of 300,000. While a furthest progression/low score rule set has its disadvantages (people could run down the clock, which could be said if we were playing, say, Castlevania), playing for high score I think is more problematic because you can point rack like crazy in this game. Felix the Cat for the NES doesn't produce the best set of rules for a contest, but it's a fun and easy game and one we've never tried before in the contests. I find it rather enjoyable, so I hope everyone has fun playing it this week.
