Time Pilot

**murve33** · January 25, 2014

First post in a non-"help me" thread. This sub-forum is awesome.

I am definitely going to hang out in this forum more if you guys have high score competitions.

Came close to Han's Score, but no cigar. I beat the tar out of my default dip switch setting scores though.

Thanks, I'm happy to be here.

I love Time Pilot too, it's been in my top 100 for years.

**hansolo77** · January 25, 2014

Just a heads up murve33! You can play in ANY of our games, not just Time Pilot. With each score you post, you increase your stats on our Overall Leaderboard. Also, don't forget about our current GOTM (Game of the Month) Toobin'. If you win 1st place, you get a shiny badge you can add to your signature to show you've got what it takes! And welcome to our little corner of the community! Glad to have you.

**murve33** · January 25, 2014

I'm so incredibly bad at Toobin' so I'll leave that to the pros. So, I can still play Pang or Rygar and get points toward the leaderboards but not badges or game-of-the month champion status?

Each hi-score game can be played constantly and even if it's not a "HIGH" score, you can still submit it and get points for your Leaderboard position. So even if you can't beat the #1 spot at Toobin' you could still submit your score and earn Leaderboard points

A Hi-Score Game of the Month has the same rules and points scoring system as any hi-score game. However, after each month the Game of the Month winner will be rewarded with a 'champion banner' to add to their signature. The previous "Game of the Month" will become a regular hi-score game and can be played constantly and will still earn you points for our Leaderboard.

Only the Game of the Month winner will be awarded with a signature / badge. Awarding badges to a number one spot at a regular hi-score game is kind of hard to do because it changes everytime somebody beats the old score...but I'm always open for any new ideas about this

**hansolo77** · January 26, 2014

....And yes, you can still play Pang and Rygar, or any of our other games, to get points for the Leaderboard. You just won't be able to earn GOTM Winner status on those games that were previous GOTM. Even if you beat the #1 spot on a previous GOTM game, the original winner will still hold that honor since the score was submitted during that month.

**murve33** · February 2, 2014

So, do I get to choose a favorite game for February? I'm still shaky on the differences in rules for these games and the GOTM.

**GimmeClassics** · February 2, 2014

So, do I get to choose a favorite game for February?

DazzleHP is chosen for this month's free game because he is (per February 1st) in the next spot on our Leaderboard past the other players who have already submitted their personal favorite game (not counting myself ).

So just keep playing our games and you have a good chance to be the next in line to choose your favorite game

I'm still shaky on the differences in rules for these games and the GOTM.

What do you exactly mean by this ?

A Hi-Score Game of the Month has the same rules and points scoring system as any hi-score game. However, after each month the Game of the Month results will be published in our Game of the Month Winners thread and the winner will also be rewarded with a 'champion banner' to add to their signature. After each month the previous "Game of the Month" will become a regular hi-score game and can be played constantly to earn you points for your Leaderboard position.

Please feel free to ask If you have any other questions.

So Toobin' was January's Game-of-the-Month and Time Pilot was January's...?

**GimmeClassics** · February 2, 2014

So Toobin' was January's Game-of-the-Month and Time Pilot was January's...?

Each month you can vote your favorite game in our monthly poll. The game which receives the most votes will become Game of the Month. It's just a game that gets highlighted during an entire month and gives you the possility to earn a signature banner. Other than that same rules apply as any other hi-score game.

Toobin' was voted Game of the Month of January. Because ExedExes has the top score as of January 31st he wins the Game of the Month edition of January and receives a signature banner. As of February 1st Toobin has been changed to a "regular" hi-score game. You can still submit scores for Toobin and receive Leaderboard points. Each game can be played constantly and will still earn you points for your Leaderboard based upon your hi-score position at that particular game. (As of now) a signature banner can only be earned by those who win the Game of the Month edition.

Time Pilot was introduced to our competition as a favorite game of Ehuonder. We give our hi-score contestants a chance to pick to favorite game to be added to our competition as a "regular" game. Score can be submitted and will earn you points for our Leaderboard just as any other game.

I hope this clarifies your questions

**murve33** · February 2, 2014

It does, thanks for your patience.

No problem. I'm glad I could help you

Have fun playing our hi-score games !!

**ExedExes** · February 3, 2014

Time Pilot, a game I've known and loved forever. I've looped this one a few times before. I also play it on the Game Boy Advance as part of the Konami arcade collection.

Attention murve33; something GC forgot to mention... if you have a list of games you'd like to see added to our competition, you CAN request them in our POLL thread, and we'll get them added to the polls eventually. Each month is a new set of games recommended by everybody, so you can add yours anytime you like.

That score took me so long to get I was starting to go mental

**ehuonder** · February 9, 2014

Well, like most of us I'm sure, I don't get to play as much as I'd like... but since I requested this game, I thought I should make time to play it!!! Here's my score: 208,000, with DIP settings as instructed.

**ehuonder** · February 9, 2014

Thanks. I'm usually not gone very long, just reading instead of posting. I think this friendly high score competition is great! I'm pretty old school, and haven't played most of the newer games, but I need to try them!

**ExedExes** · February 10, 2014

So I guess 150K isn't gonna do it? Fair enough.

I played the real thing on a 60-in-1 yesterday and broke 200K. Inspired, I went back to MAME and did much, much better.

ExedExes - 317,100

**hansolo77** · February 10, 2014

Wow killer score! Great job.
