Hello everyone and welcome to the latest installment of the Weekly Contests! In honor of the start of the 2015-16 NHL regular season this coming week (the official start is October 7), we will be playing an NES classic: Ice Hockey. Here are the rules:
-
1 player only
-
Choose USA as your team and Canada as the CPU team
-
Play on Speed 1, Time 7
-
Choose whichever size players you want
-
Play a whole game and at the end, take a picture of the score
-
Your score will be the differential between your score and the computer’s score
-
In the event of a tie, whoever has scored more goals breaks the tie (ex. Two people tie with 5. One person has scored 10 goals, while the other one has scored 15 goals. The 15 goal scorer takes precedence).
-
Greatest differential between goals for (goals you scored) and goals against (goals you allowed) wins. A positive score takes preference over a negative score (ex. A differential of 10 takes precedence over a score of -20. Purposely losing to the computer by 20 goals does not give you a better differential than a person who beats the computer by 10 goals. Positive scores take precedence over negative scores regardless of differential).
-
Ex: USA 10 Canada 5 = score of 5
-
Ex: USA 5 Canada 10 = score of -5
-
GENRE: Sports
The contest ends Sunday, 10/11/15 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
