I'm hosting a High Score contest with a Turbo Everdrive as the prize.
Here's how it works:
1. The participant who acquires and retains the most "worldwide" trophies (by having the highest score on a specific game) on highscore.com during the contest period wins.
2. Trophies are won by having the highest validated score in the region. A worldwide trophy requires having the highest validated score in the world among all participants.
3. You must provide a photo and/or video as evidence so that High Score members reviewing your submission have something to evaluate.
4. If the game title you want to play isn't in the database, you can request it.
Details are here: http://highscore.com/contest/#tg16

Sweet! I would definitely give this a try. Thanks for telling us about this! :D

Umm.. Sorry you feel that way. I thought the fact that I was giving away a Turbo Everdrive (out of my own pocket) would be of interest.

Ok, I'll change it. When I joined a few months ago, no one told me this. Military Madness is my favorite TG16 game, which is why I chose it. The only other avatar-able graphic in that game was the evil guy at the U.N. I choose not to associate myself with the Axis-Xenon forces.

Any TG16/PC Engine game.
The goal is to accumulate as many "worldwide" trophies as possible in the category. If there is already a score on the game in the database, you have to beat that score to earn the trophy. If the game has no score, your score once validated would receive the trophy, but you have to hang on to that trophy until the end of the contest (in other words, if your score is low, it will likely be cracked).

Ignore galam. This is no different than Nulltard talking about DoxPhile, paul posting about updates to the pce bible, links to new game sack videos, etc.

Seriously generous contest, mate. If I didn't suck at video games I'd totally be on board... sadly, i just buy them to put on a shelf (to impress the ladies).

What are you like, the Secretary of State or something?

Great idea. If I didn't have one of these already I'd participate. Great piece of hardware, but you don't need me to tell you that.
This is a genuinely cool idea. Thanks for this.... serious...
I signed up, what the hell. I'll give it a try. :)
Not sure if I really have the free time/skill to really deem this worth doing.... but what the hell, I signed up! Maybe I can get lucky and no one else will want to play the crappy games like I enjoy playing ;)

There hasn't been as much PC Engine submissions on the site leading up to this contest as I'd like, so the competition in this category hasn't been that intense so far.
Also worth noting: There are separate rankings for gameplay using a real console and using an emulator, so you can target achieving the top score in either category (or both).

Yes, anyone who knows me knows that I am Serious.
Something I an striving to accomplish is to turn game collectors into game players. I want no game to gather dust on anyone's shelf (or the protective covering/wrapping that the game may be stored in).
This is my purpose in life; my life's mission.
Join me.
Ah, you, with the serious introduction who then went quiet for awhile.

I remember ya. You've returned, and boy, with quite the raffle!!! I would've strongly considered participating but I went and bought it with the 20 man group buy jtucci managed to pull off for $70 a pop with shipping a few weeks back. But anyhow, +50 TurboKarma for you for such generosity...if you're serious, that is...

Thanks very much. And my hope is that this prize will be won by someone who needs but does not yet have one.
