Spriggan Shooting Contest: rules and deadlines

And now, the Spriggan Shooting Contest begins!

Here are the rules:
1) Find a partner.  Post who your partner is.
2) Find Spriggan.
3) Play Spriggan regular mode, and see how many points you can get on one credit.
4) Play Spriggan score attack, and see how many points you can get.
5) Post your scores for regular mode and score attack mode.  Time Attack is not valid.

That's it!
The regular and score attack totals for each pair will be added together.  No percentage, no weighting -- just raw values.  Basically, the regular mode separates the Bonks from the Marios, and the score attack determines the best of the Bonks.

DEADLINE TO FIND PARTNER: December 4, 2006
DEADLINE TO POST SCORES: December 11, 2006

Go!  Go go go!

I'm on Emerald Rocker's team, and I predict that we will crush Tatsujin, elnino, sunteam raul, Joe Ruddifer, CrackTiger, the SNES fans, and any other bums who have the guts to challenge us.

For some reason the search function is skipping a lot of "recent posts" and I didn't know this thread existed.

Back on topic: My solo score alone will crush your combined scores. First I'll have to find the game, though. Ugggh. I don't want to unpack any boxes.

Listen up all you candy-assed nancy boys!  :x

Keranu and I are officially announcing our alliance to destroy all puny 'challengers' in the Spriggan Shooting Contest.  [-(

No mercy will be given. Compete if you dare!  :evil:
Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

Just to make all you losers really worry, I've been practicing and so far have reached a score of at least 12!

Scared? I bet you are!

runinruder

This seems like a good time to remind everyone that the deadline for posting our scores is December 11, and that each person needs to contribute two scores: one for regular mode (on one credit) and one for score attack mode.

I believe that these are the teams:

Emerald Rocker and runinruder
Tatsujin and elnino
sunteam paul and Odonadon
CrackTiger and Keranu
steve and rolins, perhaps?

Good luck, guys.

I guess, if steve666 agree to pair up with me.
I'm very rusty though, I haven't played this game in over two years, but
I'll give it a shot.

Also, I think it would it be better to set the game to the highest difficulty setting. IIRC the game
was way to easy on normal mode.

Got me beat, I haven't even played the game.  Ever :)  I don't even own it :)  I foresee me being a very poor contributer to our group score, unless I can rustle up a copy in the next 5 days.... which I have been trying to do but can't find it in the usual places.  Dammit.

I think we'll make a great couple, rolins: I haven't played this game for a few years either. It's funny that runin is playing matchmaker now :).

You're right, though, this game is not difficult on default. I recall getting very far on my first playthrough (a bummer, in some respects).

Go!  Go go go!
Is there any way we can agree to extend the deadline to post scores? I ask only because I'll only be able to play the game a few times before Dec. 11. I'll post my scores, regardless, but it would be nice to get into the game.

Note: I have yet to unpack the box with Spriggan, but rest assured I'll find it this weekend.

Does anyone object to extending the deadline until, say, December 15th?

Hey, if it's still up, I might get in on it.  I haven't played this thing for... Um... 10 years or so.  Actually it's the first import PCE game that I bought back in 95 or so...  (I think I bought it for something like $5 - a bargain!)

Odonadon

Played Spriggan for my very first time last night - actually a really excellent game!  :D I'm a little disappointed in myself that I never gave it a go earlier. 

At any rate, I beat the entire game on one credit on hard mode but forgot to take the screenshot.  Shit.

Oh well maybe I can get a better score on my second try - after all I still have 5 days to crush everyone like insignificant bugs....

So we playing on hard mode or normal..?

I think the rules are for Normal mode still, but I'm going for Hard mode just for the hell of it.

I just tried it for the first time and did well until the beige organic level when I paused to take a break. I came back later and had no idea what was going on and quickly lost most of my lives and later hit game over near the end of the same level.

Its a cool game with nice graphics. I like shooters that aren't designed to steal quaters.

I think that that was the 4th stage. How many levels are there anyway?
