Response to This might be a silly question, but since when did we allow macintosh players in?

I was just about to flame you, Chris; tell you to leave him alone, that all colours and creeds are welcome here; not to be so excluding, and so on. Tell you that one of his mac recordings has *already been verified* by Pat, and that the mac version is bound to produce recordings that are entirely compatible with the DOS version, since they use almost exactly the same source.

But then I tried playing back his recording of bombjack, and it failed on the first level. So I reckon we should burn the infidel. What does anyone else think?

I guess you've got a point. I was thinking that it's unfair to ban any system (any AmigaMAME users out there???) - we can't insist that Mac users should run a dos emulation to run a bombjack emulation now, can we. (They might even get a slow enough frame rate to beat us then, and that would *never* do!).

Maybe we could say that the recording has to play back with a DOS version of MAME to be accepted, or leave it up to the judge in question. If the 'bombjack' judge has access to a Mac, then let him accept the recording.

Over to the mob... :o)

Chris.
