I just played the game 'dolphin' for a tournament :mad: (http://www.vmkforums.com/forums/arcade.php?&act=Arcade&do=viewtourney&tid=370)<-- click here , i spent over 2 hours playing... and guess what... i got the highest score ever. But since i was in a tournament my score wasnt recorded on the high scores list :( And to top it all off, i will have to play dolphin twice again at that kind of score to win the tournament if i get through.

This is the tournament scores....

This is my score (game over)....

And this is the person's score at number 1 on the highscores list right now....

So just to confirm that my score is... 195882
The highscore on the list is... 192571

I am really annoyed about this as i tried really hard and all i got was, most likely, a place in the next round of the dolphin tournament, im not all that good at games, this was one thing i thought i was good at, then when i finally get the highscore after hours of trying (and i missed my breakfast!) it cant be put on the highscores list.
I would try again but i have better things to do than to waste another few hours trying to get another high score. :(

An upset and unimpressed...

Sorry if this is supposed to be in rants, but arcade seemed relevent.

That's the wonderful thing about "Best Score of All Time"! :) It's basically just like any other high score, except it's only for tournaments.

I think your socre should be on the highscore list.Because you beat mine.But if you are ok with Best Score of All Time then you do not have to change it.If you want to be on the Highscore list Mods can put it on there I will not be mad about it.

Until someone else gets a score in that game in a tourney.

i understand your point completely. i played in the tetris torney and had many half way decent scores but I have to this day only played tetris once before that tournement. so my personal high score is about half of what i got in the tournement. is there a way for tournement scores to go toward your personal bests?
