I tried this after ages on the C64 thinking I could easily achieve a decent score but I found it almost impossible to play due to the controls, lol. Voting yes.
I loved this, for some reason, when I was a kid. By the way, I read that Namco thought that this (and not Pac-Man) was going to become their planetary hit, or something like that, lol. (Yes).

It doesn't matter, I watched the footage wearing a pair of sunglasses. 8)
Yes.
Nice score and good evidence package. It's a yes.
Wonderful game with psychedelic soundtrack by Sir Hubbard (inspired by Phil Glass, etc.). Well played, a clear yes!
Great evidence package and very good job, voting yes.
Yes. Please set your initials, as Haunted said.
It's one of the reasons I like this community too. :D
Good evidence and very well played, voting yes.

Final score: 27-7. Points difference = 20. (That "24" shown in the second screenshot is not important, it's about player one's goals, CPU controlled team mate playing with the winning team scored three times).

Note that I used continues to play the entire match like ILLSeaBass (the other Highscore.com user who played the game for this same board) correctly did. His submission was accepted here, so I guess this one should be accepted too. Due to the time counter, it's impossible to play the whole match, no matter how good you are: you have to insert credits after a couple of minutes. If you need a comparison with another site and scoreboard, these are also the rules used by Twin Galaxies. Obviously, power drinks shouldn't be used (you can buy them: one coin, one bottle), except for the one the game gives you each time for free at the beginning of the third period.
A simple but fun Rolling Thunder/Shinobi kind of game. Yes.
Video is not available, I'm skipping for now.

No overall goal difference rule here, or something like that. High score table in this game is based on rounds played. Note that if you win, draw or lose the final game nothing changes. Your "score" will be the same in all these cases: seven. Yes, this is a bit sad.
As you know, NEO GEO is a particular platform: we have the arcade system (MVS) and the home system (AES). The game should be substantially the same, as far as I know, but I don't know if default settings are different. I played the MVS version and default settings are shown in the screenshots. Therefore difficulty is set on four (the maximum level of difficulty).
Note that I'm the first to submit a score for this track and even the one based on the real hardware is empty. So no reference points.
Let me know if score must instead be based on the overall goal difference (or something like that). In this case, I would submit a different performance (I scored a lot of goals more, but I didn't win all rounds, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW9Lu0GIryc).
Yes, weird game that I discovered only when MAME was released. Maybe the programmers of Sword of Sodan loved it, who knows. Voted yes.
Wow, we have a classic here, folks. Always loved Jeff, his woolly animals, his dev diaries on Zzap!64, his psychedelic shoot'em ups and all. (Yes).

I like this game because it's a sort of "philosophical approach" to the trite Space Invaders theme. The alien invasion seems clearly unavoidable, everybody knows it in da city, you may just delay it a little bit shooting here and there.
Thanks! Yeah, without a doubt one of the worst games ever. Everyone has their perversions. :)
Thanks. TGP, as you should know, there's also a good Oric version of this game. Obviously it's among my pending requests. :D
One of my obsessions at the arcades when I was a kid, this version seems very good too. Yes.

Actually, it's a quite original concept, the game is full of flaws ("random" deaths, unavoidable deaths, etc.) but in spite of them is fun to play somehow. A peculiarity of BtB is that luck has a crucial role like maybe in no other platform/arcade/action game, sometimes it seems you are playing slot machines instead of a computer game.

Yeah, sadly not a good one in my opinion. Clones usually add things to the gameplay, making themselves interesting (look at Tetris clones, for example). This here seems to be the exception. Also, it's too easy at the beginning, while it becomes almost unplayable when that kind of crazy plane appears.
I didn't even remember they existed before I played this, lol. Of course, I disabled them forever right after.

Thanks. I like it. An enhanced version would be very interesting.
I once had it, a couple of years ago I moved to a much smaller flat and for now I'm playing mainly emulated games (some stuff sold, some in storage somewhere).

Thanks. I have found the zips of the magazines in this thread https://atariage.com/forums/topic/258792-what-is-amc-soft-amc-verlag/. They are on disks. I'm not used to these things, so they seem to me not so intuitive and not easy to manage. The only thing I have found for now is this sentence: "Bringen Sie den Storch mit dem Baby sicher nach Hause". So the player must take the stork home safely with the baby. :)

From what I have seen, you made points simply flying, but it seems too easy. Maybe it's edutainment for kids.

Biggles is split into two parts. When you complete the first part, called Timewarp, the game gives you a password and you have access to the second part, Soundweapon or The Secret Weapon (it must be loaded apart). This is a sort of flight simulator substantially untied to the rest of the game. Besides, you don't keep your score (as far as I know, in the second part there's no scoring system at all). The performance is only about the first part, Timewarp.

Sorry, my fault. Sometimes I have to play with loudspeakers off, but audio is recorded anyway. In some last videos made for Amstrad CPC games the emulator sound option was set on mute (I don't know why, previously I recorded a video for International Speedway with the same emulator and sound was ok), and I didn't notice. I'll pay more attention in the future on these details.

Oasis Draughts seems also very good and hard to beat. No point and click, the traditional alpha-numeric notation instead, but it was released some years before the Rack-it game.
About Draughts Genius, the strongest levels seem to take a lot of time to move. I have tried the eighth level and after half an hour Einstein didn't even reply to my first move, lol. Maybe I'll try changing the speed setting from normal to 20x.
Buy a ZX Spectrum on eBay or download a free emulator (Fuse, ZXSpin, etc. I'm using Spectaculator but it's not free, after a month you must pay for it, the others are good too). Download the game from World of Spectrum. You have to capture all of Einstein's pieces. This is the English version of the game. English draughts are a bit different from the international version (in International Draughts pieces can also capture backward, not only forward, etc.).

Thanks! Sadly, I can't now because I moved to a much, much smaller flat a couple of years ago so I had to reorganize all (some stuff sold, some other stuff in storing). This is the reason why I'm playing mainly with emulators now, but hopefully this will change in the future. I'll play again this on a real Plus/4 one day and I'll try to understand after more than thirty years how to beat that damn "Pac-Man level". :)

It's interesting discovering these versions of classic games. Yes.
I removed it because I don't like to have unclear scores, and all. Besides, this is not so important for me after all.
My point of view.
It could be seen as an extra ball in pinball, or something like that. A sort of gift, a chance that the game gives to you 'cause you have made a decent league, so "try once more" (never had this chance in many attempts with only two or three points gathered, never had twice in a row). This version of the game seems suddenly switching from a very easy difficulty level (first two leagues) to an almost impossible one (that continental championship). The booklet says that you don't have to oversteer to go faster, so you should try to stay in the middle of the road. But this can't simply be done, because one touch from the other riders and you are dead. So five points in that league are not so bad in my opinion, and I believe that the game somehow recognises this with that thing of the organisers full of wisdom, lol. Note that the only race you could apparently win in the "continental" league is the first one, when you can start in the "safest" and best part of the ring, so the boost is useful there.
And, despite this, you need a miracle to get even those three points, lol. If you try to do the same in the other three races an opponent will touch you, sooner or later. If you don't use the boost when you start you will never have the lead of the race, and you will need a miracle even to finish second in the last two rings: you are not faster than your main two opponents, but you are much slower than them at the start.
However, if someone is able to win that league (I seriously doubt it's possible, I don't believe this version of the game was actually tested before being sold), he could make more points even without that "re-run thing" because he will have the chance to compete in another league, and in that league maybe he could win that "extra ball" from the organisers too.
But this is only to explain my point of view, your stricter interpretation of the rules (that are objectively not so clear on this aspect due to the necessary brevity) is good to me.

Now I realize that there was no audio in this video I have shared. Sorry, maybe it's because it was late and I was playing with the wireless headset on, without having correctly set up OBS Studio https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/audio-isnt-being-recorded.76025/

Yes, was persistently incorrectly named "Galvan" everywhere (but it's based on a bizarre TV show called "Space Sheriff Gavan" so confusion maybe is justifiable : D ). I was a big fan of the arcade (sadly unbelievably brief, only two levels) and when I saw conversions I felt dead inside.

Notes (about the Max-A-Flex system): «When the timer gets down to 10 seconds of remaining time, the cabinet will emit progressively higher audio tones to signal that you need to insert more coins. If the timer gets to zero, the controls go dead but the game does not reset. You could insert another coin to continue or let your lives run out so another player could start fresh. It was an odd situation when compared to other arcade games. You could still have several lives left in reserve, but once time ran out, the game was over unless you inserted more money». (From classicarcademuseum.org).
Weird and funny game, I'm glad someone plays it. Voted yes.
I've never played this one, it seems very cool and stylish. Voted yes.
Charming music, I have to go back to playing it. Voted yes.
