I am getting ready to watch alex's inp on Scramble in which he broke well over 1 million pts. This score (providing everything is legit) is to the best of my knowledge, a new world record score for this game! I just checked all the scores in the Twin Galaxies book of World Records and the highest score in there was 999,250. I will let Walter Day know so that again, providing the game was played the way it was sappose to, it will be recognized in the next edition of the book of world records under mame scores.

Congrats once again for a phenominal score! I strongly suggest you attend the 2nd annual TG Masters tournement at Funspot in Weirs Beach New Hampshire the first weekend of June. I think I can get the manager to get a scramble and if you attend, you could go for the world record and get all the attention and media coverage you ever expected, trust me. I've been to every sanctioned event they've had and each one gets twice as better as the last one. This upcoming event is going to be the biggest and most enjoyable one yet and there planning on having many more world record players then the year before going for new records and getting interviewed by the media.

Well...

Scramble is a Konami made game, but they sold the distribution rights
to Stern. The Stern version of the game, which has fewer fuel tanks,
is the one that had wide distribution in America. Since the three
scores listed for Scramble in the TG book are from North Carolina,
California, and Missouri the record scores were most likely made with
the harder Stern set.

Actually, the Stern version does not have fewer fuel tanks. As a
matter of fact, it actually has more because of the ones it has
towards the end of the maze that are not present in the Konami
version. The main difference is that on the Stern version, fuel runs
out faster, so you can only afford to miss at most one (or sometimes
two if you are lucky) fuel tank. Also, the rockets are slightly more
aggressive in the Stern version.
