homerwannabee Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 OK, I decided to be crazy enough to do a Winter Olympics. There will be only 4 games for these games. This is mainly because there are only 4 real winter games for the Atari 2600. The games will be Ice Hockey(It will be judged by biggest blowout). Skiing, Mogul Maniac, and Winter Games. As far as the Winter games every game available on Winter Games can be used in the competition. Also since there are only 4 games, I want to limit it to 4 people to a country. So basically say what country you want to be a part of, and your in that country! Also the contest will run on the first day of the Olympics to the end. So from February 12th to February 28th. As far as levels go, Set the games on default, and set the games on easy levels for all games. Also, Atari 2600, 7800, and emulation will be allowed. Of course no cheats.

godzillajoe Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 So.... game variations, dificulty switches? Any of that we need to know about? Just defaults on everything? I hope there are no cheats like in Decathlon, that would make the whole thing pointless. Best scores/times for each event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Iacovelli Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 we did this before with zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerwannabee Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 we did this before with zero I know that was with the last Winter Olympics. If Zero wants to take the responsibility from me, I have no problem with that. Hence why I waited at the last second before doing this. Zero also did the 2004 Summer Olympics as well but passed on the 2008 Summer Olympics. Of which I did. I presumed because I did the 2008 Summer Olympics that doing the Olympics had now fallen in my lap. If I stepped on Zero's toes I am extremely sorry about that.

Cool, My mother is of Swedish background, so I'm going to join you Pjk's. I make a very good Pytt i panna dish. LOL. (wonders if I spelled it correct) I don't own Mogule Maniac either, if it's needed to play, maybe someone here can help me with an emulator for 7800, anyone?

No need to feel ur stepping on anyone. I actaully asked Zero about if Winter Games is going for competition, but haven't gotten a reply... yet. It's been 3 days.

Zoyx Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I'll give it whirl. My heritage is half German/half English. So put me on the team that is the most appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will presume that your 25 seconds is 25.9, and 3.0 for hot dog ariels without the full information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
