Response to Ghouls'n Ghosts score

from MKL (m_nassivera@yahoo.it)
mmm... I'm afraid I've deleted it... it was an old game done with the default settings and now I only play with the TG settings (which make the game way tougher). Also, the score was less than 200k... But I think that sooner or later I'll make it also with the TG settings.

I think we should make two different rankings (I discussed the matter briefly with Walter Day of TG and he agrees):

1) Official tournament settings. Players must try to finish the game with first life and without repeating last level of round 2. Player with the most points wins.

2) Marathon settings. Last level of round 2 must be played on and on (I did it some 50 times) in order to get oodles of points (actually, I played this kind of game after I read in the TG site that a guy supposedly scored 1,088,700 pts).

Giving additional points for each remaining life is not wholly satisfactory in my view because the bonus life you find in a pot (somwhere in the last 3 levels, usually in the 4th) not always shows up, meaning that a player may eventually have 1 million pts more than another with no skill... We should rather give the bonus points to the player that finishes the game with the 1st life.
