    Postscript from yesterday - I ran the exact same time twice. These are not mirror pics lol.

    I saw a tweet about this anniversary earlier today. I'm hoping to get back to 7800 Pole Position II in hopes of beating my PB again.

      FYI - @Justin , @Sabertooth - The Atari.io challenges will be updated on the show going forward. Please feel free to keep me posted on future challenges. I'll do my best to keep tabs on here & other sites, but there may be times (like, for example, this week) when I lose track.

    I just realized I posted questions on the Community Calendar. (That kind of week, folks.) Where/How can I play Legends Pinball? Where is it available? I'd like to give it a go.
  5. Marco1019
    Avoiding the puddles is key. There will be occasions when they're unavoidable like when they're in the hairpin turn or when you're dealing with traffic. But you'll see your PB increase steadily.

    Wow! This is one heck of a summer party! What a lineup! Great news on Club Evercade; a fellow gamer gave away a portable Evercade recently to celebrate 500 Twitch followers. Club VCS has a dedicated following. A few questions: Will the watch parties take place via Twitch/Amazon? Where will livestreams be announced? Forum, individual pages, both? Where/How does one play Legends Pinball?

    The Grand Prix ended about 13 hours ago (at the time of this post), but the chase goes on: New PB of 75300!
  8. Marco1019
    Thank you and congratulations, @Justin, and thanks to everyone who participated in this year's Grand Prix! I'm happy that word got out and interest was piqued. I'm also happy to make the podium for a second straight year 🍾

    I'd love to watch your run! Also, since you sniped me with 20 minutes remaining, you owe me a pretzel LOLLLLLLLL 🥨
  10. Marco1019
    I wish this run was also on video as we are in an exclusive club. Congratulations!
  11. Marco1019
    Thank you! I haven't had one of those super pretzels in years... So your 7800 doesn't turn on at all??
  12. Marco1019
    I just learned that my new rank is Pretzel. I WON A FREE PRETZEL!! 🥨
  13. Marco1019
    I DID IT! 75,000! NEW PB! The video should start at 21:52. Otherwise, you'll have to skip to that part of the video.
  14. Marco1019
    New PB: 74800. The run begins at 9:59. I lost time on the final lap during the hairpin; it was either slow down or crash. The good news is that I'm a handful of frames from 75000.
  15. Marco1019
    I tried to beat my new PB and tied it lol. You have to avoid the water, even if it means hitting the side of the road. I splashed four times during this run.
  16. Marco1019
    New PB: 74600. I played on the ProSystem emulator. I hit two puddles, one of which was during the hairpin and couldn't be avoided.
  17. Marco1019
    1 - I will keep the gas floored & hit the left side of the track right as I'm hitting the turn (provided there's no traffic). I'll sometimes hit the right side of the track but I'll come out of that turn at 210-220 mph. 2 - This has also occurred on a few of my runs. It's really annoying.
  18. Marco1019
    Indeed, it's 4000 for the pole versus 2000 for starting in 2nd.
  19. Marco1019
    I didn't think I'd reach 74K, but the key was not crashing. I learned from last year's Grand Prix that it's better to hit the side of the road because you will not lose as much time as crashing. The RNG on the puddles, though lol.
  20. Marco1019
    You can score above 75000. There are two gamers who have accomplished that feat.
  21. Marco1019
    New PB: 74200. I recorded the video using Twitch Studio (Beta), hence the layout.
  22. Marco1019

    Here's a promo for Episode 83 of Retro With Marco streaming TONIGHT AT 9PM ET! Featuring new retrogaming records, a preview of the Sega Mega Drive 2 Mini, plus recaps & previews of scoring tournaments (including Atari.io)!

     

    The show was postponed a day because of work. So it's a new episode tonight with the replay streaming on Friday at 3pm ET. See you then!

  23. Marco1019
    No, I wasn't perfect with my run. I splashed a few puddles & had to do a little off-road racing to avoid crashing.
  24. Marco1019
    New PB: 74000 I had to drive off road quite a bit. I only managed to hit one puddle & that was on the final lap.
  25. Marco1019
    New PB: 73800
