I am sorry, but if there is going to be a self imposed bottom, that
is something I can not be a part of. None of my scores are lame, I
know I have (bleep) damned tried on them, but I can't do better.
There are games that I am at the top on. Does that mean I should stop
playing the lower ones? While I don't think so, that is the answer a
minimum percentage is giving. If it is truly "lame", then it would
get 0 pts based on percentage only. If it isn't, then the score
should be allowed what it is given. Until I hear a good reason to the
contrary, "and the server is dying" as not a good answer, it sounds
like Henny Penny anymore, (since Zwaxy is going to MySQL, where there
will be enough juice) I must stay away from MARP.

I will, though, out of courtesy, create and store the tourney two rom
page for the tournament, because I feel I already made that
committment, and I will not back out on it.

Crash
I'm sure it doesn't say that it's a permanent change, and if all the
server woes go away, then surely it could be changed back.
Personally, I think "the server keeps dying" is easily a good enough
reason, as we've been told it's the volume of recordings that causes
problems. And when there's no server there are no pages you can
download or upload files from/to.
<p>
I just think that the lame scores are wasting system resources, and
therefore clogging up the scripts. And as for a self-imposed bottom
of 5 points isn't there already a limit as there already scores there
scoring no points. Isn't the idea of a leaderboard to show the best
scores?
<p>
If I scored 100k on Galaga (which I haven't) I wouldn't upload it
anyway, because it is a lame score. But when people upload scores for
100's of games, when all it looks like they've done is load, record,
play and quit a game, without even going back to it to try and
improve the score, then I'm all for banning them.

marp.retrogames.com is not a backup for your input files. I keep all
mine locally, and there are some I haven't uploaded.
