Jaguar HSC Revamped, SEASON 2, FINAL ROUND (ROUND 12):

TEMPEST 2000
(aka, orpheus is going to lay the smack down)



Round ends when Orpheus finally lays the smack down.

RULES AND DIRECTIONS:

---

Start a new game on 2000 mode, start from the very first web, and go until you game over. Submit your score when finished. Do *not* play on Beastly Mode.

**AS A FINAL-ROUND BONUS, I will be giving the top scorer an extra 50 points on top of the standard 100. All other scores will still be factored in based on the usual 100 point rule.

If you are not familiar with the Jaguar HSC general rules and how the scoring system works, please visit this thread here: http://www.atariage....on-2-schedule/. It is recommended that you take a photo of your score, but it is not required. We go on good faith here, so please be honest..

I am definitely going to submit a score for this but I kind of agree with Austin's warning of orpheus' impending beat down of us all.

I would help provide the beat-down as well, but I don't think I will be able to let myself manage to get very far through emulation.

Updated the current rankings. Also, I added a small bonus to the top-scorer this round. Much like last season, I will be giving prizes to the top three participants for the entire season. Nothing too crazy, just some small gift cards to online retailers. So.. fight for the top! It's close between the regulars.

Well let's see if I actually get time to play... Also I'm currently on a run of getting progressively worse at games, I haven't hit anywhere near my top score on tempest in awhile.

It happens when you don't play regularly (or have a life).

[orpheuswaking]

Man, I can't even get beat my lowest score on my Tempest Scoreboard!

And there goes first place for me.

I haven't had a chance to sit down and play as I have family visiting and of course they have crashed in my game room. Also picked up Super Burnout that I need to submit a score for..... Is it bad that I am considering kicking family out of my house?

Awwww.... Don't worry, I may let this round last longer than usual. I mean, this IS the LAST round, afterall.. Not like it matters too much.....

Oh, and yes.. kicking your friends and family out for videogame time is perfectly acceptable. ;D

A pretty good score for me. In fact it's actually my high score. And I also finally figured out how to resize photos on my iMac.... who would have thought Apple would make that so difficult

So was this one going to be extended?

Yeah. I haven't decided on how long, but whatever it is I don't think it will matter much since this is the last game, and this will probably go on hiatus a bit again afterward.

[orpheuswaking]

Hiatus... NOOOOO!!!!!!!

Well, look at it this way.. Maybe if we go between seasons long enough, it will give me enough time to save and buy another Jaguar, and I will be able to play more frequently next time.

[orpheuswaking]

Excuses, Excuses

[roadrunner]

Nice score. I think it was final that the deadline was extended Austin just hasn't said how long the extension is for. I have the next couple of days off and will probably give it another go.

Yeah, the round is permanently extended until I say so. I'm thinking until I get a score in. Maybe a week or two, I'm not sure. It will also let the stragglers get their scores in as well, if they still pop in every now and then, anyway.

That is cool. I just had my Jaguar sent out here where I am working overseas, so I will see I can get this loaded on my Skunkboard and get a s score in!!

[orpheuswaking]

How about a catch up round for the stragglers, and bonus points for any game they beat their own score in?"

You just want an excuse to play other games before the next season hits.
