I'm printing off the first post now and going to be going over it in the next couple days. I'm going all out this year.

-------------------------

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at the Let's Play Gaming Expo last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Oh, my WTB thread is very popular. The sportos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, Richard craniums - they all adore it. They think it's a righteous thread.
I'd also like to add that I've got my father's gun and a *scorching* price guide for aftermarket Nintendo games.
Between Dragon Warriors and nothing... I'll take Dragon Warriors - for any of my FT/FS/FO items.

Solid list of games! This should be a good season and I think the updated format is going to work just fine.

I am planning on participating again this year, but I want to spend the bulk of my playing time working on NES games for my blog. I'm probably going to make one attempt at a score and call it a week. I'll still be around for discussion and whatnot!



I own about half of the games on the list so I'll try to participate some too. My attempts will probably just be for fun though since my scores won't count towards the leaderboards.

I'm pretty much shooting for the same except that my scores will actually count.

I'm not sure how much time that I'll have to play since my contest mod duties might keep me busy, but I'll try and join in whenever I've got a chance to post something competitive.

The NES advantage has turbo function. So it's not allowed? I ask because in the xevious contest it was. Thank you.

Using a NES advantage is not forbidden per say, but you must leave the turbo functions off at all time, naturally. It is rarely a better option than the standard controller though (or I'm just not used to it).

If you are referring to the 2014 contest, that would be correct.

It sounds like I should've held off on retiring while I still have the advantage of being single and not having any kids! As long as my new mod duties don't keep me too busy, I'll try to still play along with you guys as much as I can.

This wasn't exactly a bad way to call it a career at the end of last season.
