Mahlemiut...
Is good to post the current records, including Gamest ones.
But... which "style" of game is it? Racing?

This round I will try to play BEFORE the last 2 days! ;)

Hmmm...
Would be better to post the name of the game on the message title, like on WCC4 ("WCC5 week 2 - MADGEAR").

It's a top-down racer type thing :) Looks kind of like a faster-paced version of Bump 'n' Jump.

Around 1300000 MADGEAR on my 1st attempt (the unique still now), but not recorded. It is a very odd "racing" style.

Nice to meet you Destructor. Are you playing a lot for TG Bonties???
PS.: I dont know WHEN I will play again that games, like our combination: PASS and ECO FIGHTERS... but I still will... ;)

See you!

By the way, Destructor... In my opinion would be better if Robert put the name and the nickname of the player in the Bounties announcements... Is a bit odd to see "Rafal Politanski" catching all the Robert money, hehehe ;)

I am not abble to post on TG Board... is possible you contact Robert and suggest to insert name and nickname (to whom wish it, of course). To me it sounds better to know who is Destructor, BBH, Sikraiken, etc. Do you agree?

I agree, I don't like when I see my real name without nick. I will contact with Robert in next week about this.

Not only the TG Board, but all the TG site... I tried all (cookies, security options, fire-wall options, antivirus options... and impossible to access this site from my home PC.
Hmmmm... my TG Board account is being changed/edited by Robert at this moment... and I am waiting this solution. :)

It's a nice idea but don't forget that MARP and Twin Galaxies are two completely separate things. We may like to see our nicknames but they'll mean nothing to people who don't frequent MARP.

I expect that's why Robert uses real names.

I agree, and I know, but I think if a lot of us wish it, Robert will do it. I know so welll the Robert's priorities and thoughs.

See you!

I have the same problem as you and i wrote a mail to the tg staff but no one answer me since last month :-(
I have the problem since twingalaxies has changed his site cos i suscribe last year.
If you could write to me when your problem would be solved to help me to know the way to access my account.

Thanks.

Sawys, ok... I will contact you if no problems.
But once I had the same problem, so I formated PC and the access was ok. Sometime after, the same problem occur.
I have 80Gb HD, and just bought other HD with 160Gb. So I will format PC and I think this problem will be ok.
