Welcome everyone.
We finally got to the game all of you were waiting for! Prepare to be overwhelmed by cuteness!

This week our addorable contestants will be getting their cute overload by playing Bubble Bobble!
The rules they will abide to in order to be the cutests of them all follow below:
  • 1 player only
  • Play until Game Over
  • Take your picture on the Game Over screen (where it shows your password)
  • You must start on the first level
  • Highest score wins
  • Participation: 100,000
  • GENRE: Puzzle
The contest ends Sunday, 07/14/19 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.

"According to Fukio Mitsuji, the characters of Bub and Bob were made to get more female gamers into the arcade, which was very rare to see before then." <-- Let it be know that this person made the right call.

This is one of the first games I ever played in these contests, in 2011 I think. It was 1 life but the points put up were still insane. Maybe I will join in, but also might keep up my non-participation streak for the year and still join up next season. Cant go wrong with Bubble Bobble

You just barely bumped me from 8th place last time we played this. I had 950k by stage 32 and then choked. I'm still piseed about it.

Yikes that's a bad break!!  Makes sense though: 8th place is in fact my sweet spot for bumping (since I can't place any higher   )

I used to be a huge fan of this game... but after playing Rainbow Islands so much more than this one over the past few years, it's almost hard to go back :\ Not nearly as colorful, but I hope to give it some serious time this week.

Well I was going to put a some more effort in but the champ wants everyone competing for second place now. Cue the stone cold Steve Austin "arrive, raise hell, leave" t-shirt
