I think this has been brought up in the past about playing a full sports game with unlimited credits or just one credit.
<p>

A sports game might be any game played against computer foe, where the computer might actually score points against the human player. For now, I'll just address typical sports games like baseball, football and soccer (football in most other countries:).

<p>

Instead of just allowing a sports game to continue until the game is finished (9 innings, 4 quarters), allow the player to complete the game, but subtract the foes score from the players score.

<p>

An example would be, if a player scored 20 runs in a 9 inning game of 2020baseball, yet let the opponent score 10 runs, the final submission leader board score would be 10.

<p>

This could also work for other games also, like Off the Wall and Hat Trick. Off the Wall being a score of 11 tops.

<p>

I really suck a defence on both baseball and football, so I'm not trying to gain any leader points, also if the rule applied to Off the Wall I would have a score of 1.

<p>

What do you all think?

offence minus defence is good but is 10-5 really better than 5-1? It
depends tremendously per game how difficult it is to play defence. My
take on the 1 credit vs. unlimited is that's how all the mame games
are played, with only a quarter to play. But the baseball games do
cut short very quickly, i dunno, maybe another vote that nobody votes
on is in order

Some games offer their own salary settings, like High Impact (which I
wish would go salary instead of one-quarter score!!). So, it would be
game by game.
