The Two Player "BATTLE THREAD" -- (Do you have the guts call someone out?)

[- Ω -]

@RickR Okay dude, Thetris is the name, a high score wins the game.  I'll post my first score this evening.  Game on!

[RickR]

OK!  This will be fun.  I will get on this later this week.  I have a bit of game-room construction going on today, so the 5200 is put away. 

[Atari 5200 Guy]

😥poor 5200.  Putting that dear machine where it cant breathe.  You ought to be reported to APS!  😂

I'll be tracking this.  I don't have this TI game but I love to watch a good battle.  Good luck guys!

Here is my first run at it!

@Atari 5200 Guy it's not a TI game, so if you want to get in on the action, download the BIN file below.

It's in the tan tub, lower left.

The Atari 5200... right up your alley.

I'm only picking on you.  I don't have room to talk.  Mine is sitting on the floor waiting for a spot to sit on.  Besides, I don't think there is actually an Atari Protective Service anyway 😉.  But where's your ST?

[RickR]

ST and Amiga are in the garage in two big/flat boxes.  I need to work on integrating those into this new room. 

[Atari 5200 Guy]

Amiga?!? Stored with an ST??? Are you sure those two are safe to have together?  They might start fighting each other.

Never had a working Amiga.  At least not the more common one.  Someone once gave me an Amiga 2000 that didn't work and needed a power supply.  I never found one and there was no internet then so I threw it away.  If only I had known.

[RickR]

FYI - I haven't forgotten!  I am hoping they close the doors early at work today for the holiday and then I'll give this a shot. 

We may want to move this over to the 2-player Battle section of the forums.

Don't forget we created the 2-Player Battle Forum in High Score Squad for this very purpose 😀

Thanks, I was unaware that thread existed.  I'll play another game today and "officially" call out @RickR.  Hopefully he'll get his 5200 hooked up soon.

[RickR]

Here you go.  11,098.  It's a nicely done game. 

[RickR]

12,035 is about as good as I can do right now.  You win!

You can't give up yet @RickR the rules are best two out of three. 😁

Here is my second score...

[RickR]

The 5200 is put away.  Sorry, but that's it for me on this game.  It was fun to try though.

 

[- Ω -]

Okay, I still decided to put up my third and final score.  So now I'll consider myself the winner.
