If you are up for playing some fun classic Atari games please post here and say so. EVERYONE WELCOME TO TAKE PART If you're reading this after the round has started you can still play, just post a score or two and I'll sort things out

Final Poll Results: Pitstop 9 - Pole Position 4, Kik-Start 7 - Rally Speedway 6
Kik-Start, Pitstop
Ball Blazer, River Raid, Lode Runner make the cut
Leaderboard Golf will feature
Mini Games: Beam Rider, Pacific Coast Highway, Turmoil, Serpentine, Roundabout and Crazy Clown Jumper.

Play starts Friday 23rd Sept & finishes on 24th Oct (10am BST). A month to play!
No practicing any of the games before hand!

Ok please start forming Teams of 3-4.
Come up with a team name and nominate a captain to keep things in order!
There are two players Zylon and LittlemanJack who only have a limited number of games so I suggest they make the 4th members of some of the teams.

If you can get atari friends or family to play great - new players (not played in season 8 ) earn your team a 1pt bonus. On some games only 2-3 players from each team will play, you can decide this as a team. Scoring will be for 'team points', with some individual points too.

Try and keep your teams balanced ... so I'll take deteacher, fandal, and McKong no ?!!! ok I'm sure I can rope me old friend Justin Case into service plus Bluecat and perhaps MopChop as the 4th member as she likes PCH

Perhaps we should find out whos playing this round and then you can divide the teams up fairly?

Count me in!

[4Ks]

I'm in for sure! This was a lot of fun on Pole Position, and doing it on multiple games sounds like a cool idea.

HSC pimping in progress

Yes Mr.A. Ball Blazer just for you... if you get a team of 4 you can miss out the games you don't like - and there's not a BASIC game on the rosta [or you can be one of those teams of individuals who don't get on and hog the ball]

Hey who are you calling a lemon? Don't want to be in your team anyway! Anyone want a fairly useless team member?

[roadrunner]

I'll take Mr A. Zylon and Bluecat on my team.

We'll call ourself "The Road Runners"

you sure you don't want to be "The Lode Runners" hee hee, if I did team up with deteacher that would stop him catching up with me... there's going to be a healthy amount of HSC points on offer here folks! I've made it 1month to play this round so there's plenty of time to get into the games.

I'll forum poke a few former AA HSC people to see if we can get a few more to dust of their joysticks

Are there enough players on here to form a UK team?

National teams is a nice idea - perhaps Innuendo can get some people from atarionline.pl to play and the Munich HSC can put in a team too... I'm off to pester people on the main forum

Oh... allllllright. I'll play, but I'll be cursing bountybob repeatedly as I play. (damn him and his teams!)

You know what this means?? The next time I go for a job interview and get asked that moronic question, "Are you a team player?", I'll have to answer "Yes". (instead of my usual, "No, of course not, you vapid bimbo.")
