Disabled Big Wave until i can figure out why it doesnt load.
Go in the game and press 'B' - looks like it's virus scanning my PC. WTF? :dry:
It's the boss protection :P
w/e it is it's slowing my pc down. pressing stop doesn't stop it.
GAY
pressing B or STOP stops it for me.Quote:

Never heard of a boss button? It's not scanning anything, just hiding the fact that you're playing games on a computer at work when the boss comes to check on you.
Pressing stop works fine for me.
All the yeti games have it (there's a Google search on one and a pie chart thing on another for example). If you look closely at most of the main game screens (or how to play sections) hitting "B" to get into boss mode (which is a cover screen for when your boss is looking over your shoulder, though most contain references to the game) will be mentioned so it's no secret :)Quote:

Incidentally, I don't think the high scores should be pruned either, why don't we have two sets of high scores tables... a weekly one (which is set to be the normally displayed one) and an overall one which lasts forever...
:huh:
I did that. just checking if it workedQuote:

Well that does make sence although monthly and forever may be better perhaps and sounds like a good middle ground...Quote:

So are we now prune scores deemed unreachable, even when more than one person gets it.
Stop being babies. Hell I was deemed champion of that game until the impossible score yet...........no crying about it.
I think crysmiley's score should be reinstated.
Nothing's impossible.
You took my high score by cheating. I'm telling. :snooty:Quote:

I got over 400 in Cutie Quake but clicked the fucking back button before I submitted the score. :angry:Quote:

I'm a little different though. I'm one of those folk who used cheat codes in GTA III only after beating the game and I never use those walkthrough guides.
It just ain't no fun that way. There's no sense of accomplishment.
In that respect people will be people and will want some form of "look at me" and cheat. This is evident also with the "I want my score on the front page" stuff.
Almost all of the high scores on there are attainable.
Some simply involve endurance and not much skill.
I've never actually cheated in Cutie Quake, but i only ever get the urge to play it when i'm encoding a film and my computer is running very slow.Quote:

Airfox (suuuuuuuuuuuper slow and easy game)
Defend Your Castle

You have to actually kill yourself to something more meaningful like go to work. :lol: :lol:
So what have you decided on this then? I still think it's a bad idea but I notice you have 17th of May as a clean up date for the arcade.Quote:

Would be nice to see how other members feel about this as well.
I did cheat in Bounce Back, but that's the only one.
Not that bothered really.Quote:

I don't see any reason either.
Is that an agreement? :unsure:Quote:

Anyhow, my question is what is the point of deleting scores (if that is what is going to happen). Does it take up database space or something? :unsure:
I'm telling you, it's the "Iwantmyscoreonthefrontpage" thingie.Quote:

You know what? Now this pruning score stuff really makes little sense when you see there is a weekly high score list.
I almost forgot about that.
Changes for changes sake. Fixing what ain't broke. :dry:
It was a mod who first came with the idea of the score pruning it has nothing todo with 'wining' members!
IKE we know how it came about but it started with this.Quote:

If the members and team find the other option better it will be changed back.
So I'm the whining member? :ohmy:Quote:
