Response to Bombjack

from ***PL*** (laffaye@mail.com)
I thought the Bombjack scores were reset to 5 men only, but we'd need to doublecheck. This is what I believe the settings should be because the MARP system is simple--TGTS or DEFAULT. If TGTS allows extra lives for Bombjack, then TGTS could be changed to a harder setting. Hence, I don't think it's a good idea to introduce a one man rule just for this game. Reason: we would need to start tracking exceptions and there would be way to many (in fact perhaps all?!) Yea, just think, a new MARP LB category -- 1 man scoring for all 3000 MAME games. Let's face it the game has been mastered and that's that.

Likewise, it seems contradictory to add a category for marathonable games. This is a site to show off skill not watch 1/2 day long INPs. Furthermore, I can't see giving out extra LB points for this. Scores will be based on 5 men only (1 round only for T&F) on these types of games (e.g Bombjack, Joust, Q*Bert, etc.) You can marathon if you wish, but at the appropriate time the confirmer will stop watching and record the score.
