I just noticed the Official Neo Geo High Score Thread today (a little late, I know), and I think it's an awesome concept.

Whatever happened with that? It appears it hasn't been updated since '06.

Is it in need of a new caretaker or what?

Anybody can but it does track the changes and who made them.

I think for now BBH and myself should take care of the editing if need be.

If you guys dont see the game on there it is because there is no high score posted.

I think I'll be going for the Fatal Fury score. I'm a low-aimer with little ambition. ;)

So where do we post our scores for updating? The old thread?

I like the high score concept a lot, cos any excuse to go back and play my lesser played Neo games (read: anything that's not Samurai Shodown II) is good with me.

Here or there, as long as its public display. Preferably the old one though.

The thread hasn't been updated since '06 because I CAN'T UPDATE THE FIRST POST. Somewhere along the lines this forum instituted a weird limit on post editing where we can't edit posts that are slightly older than a month or so. Thus the thread sort of died. I would have definitely kept updating it, but that edit limit is more important for reasons nobody wants to tell me.

Don't blame me for being negligent, there's nothing I could do, and the mods ignored my requests to at least unsticky the thread.

But we have the wiki now I guess so whatever...

Ya I remember when that change was made, everyone was bitching about it especially for their sales threads. I still dont know why that was done.

But hey BBH, feel free to edit the wiki if need be bro.

I guess we don't want folks going back and rewriting history. I can see some sense in this.

Pheer my Legend of Success Joe high score. I once played the game for 15 consecutive minutes, I'm pretty sure that automatically qualifies for a world record. Maybe I'll try to do it again.
