If anyone ever wants to add a track for the Japan romset, Majestic Twelve (majest12j), I can submit a run there. That game's a bit shorter because you select stages instead of playing through them all. It's not a super-easy 1cc but you can manipulate the item-drop RNG on early stages to get powered up :)

Heck of a lot faster than my old run!

One more question - I noticed that the 1cc category leaderboard requires submitting 2 players. Any chance of switching that to 1 player? (A leaderboard for co-op could be something to have as well, but most folks play shmups single-player)

I think there's a typo in the time tracking on this one - the characters talk after final boss is at about 40:10 not 20:10

Pretty solid! Looks like 3'42.6 in-game time and about 4'45 realtime

Saving those frames!

Nice run! Thanks ivanpaduano for adding the ColecoVision category

After playing Roc'n Rope, you can play Rock'n Rage and then Rock'n Tread for the full arcade rocking experience :)

Nice!

Nice!

I'm excited this is getting talked about. I like the idea of option #1 - different domain names but same userbase and interface, so people who are interested in speedruns and highscores can do both (and people who are only into one don't have to). I'm semi-active on highscore.com - I think it's pretty good site, but it also feels like too few people spread across too many games.

There are a LOT of sites that would be worth looking at for ideas and also info about scores: MARP (http://replay.marpirc.net/), RetroUprising, Restart Syndrome, high score threads from http://shmups.system11.org, Gamest/Arcadia scores (http://stormoid.com/gamest/gamest.html), Aurcade (http://www.aurcade.com/)
