Here are my votes.(posted 9401 days ago)1) Fax: Ban. Only because too many players take advantage of using the pause key which caused too much contreversy on other games where it should be ok to use.
2) Off the Wall: Do not ban. If this is the Arkanoid type game with the paddles on the side of the screen instead of on the bottom, this game should not be banned, I have no reason to think it's 'just too easy' (then again, I could be talking about the wrong game).
3) Robocopp: DO NOT BAN. My reason is very well explained by another player who I cannot remember at the moment. The trick does not put you "in harms way" like a game like points leaching on Contra. All it does is just boost up the total score by the ending which is nice to see a much higher score for some. Walter Day told me back some time ago, he said, "If there is a trick in a game that EVERYONE has access to and does NOT put you in harms way, (contra, NZ Story, or a trick to give you unlimited men, ect) then it is ok to use it".
4) New Zealand Story: Ban it. I know nothing about this game, but from what I've read about it, it's no different then what you can do in Contra. Ban it.
