You know... Twin Galaxies? That site that's supposed to be our 'official scorekeeper?' The site we poke fun at from time to time on these forums? Yeah I guess they were bought by some folks who will actually run it properly. *cough* Probably Ritchie Knucklez *cough* So maybe we won't be making fun of it anymore.

HEY! Maybe they'll start tracking Mortal Kombat 1 again, and all of you other MK fans on this forum can put up some scores against me!

Haha, that's great!

That organization could use the integrity that they admit they lost. They can start by reclassifying the dubious high scores they're tracking as 'can't be verified'.
 
1up is owned by Jourdan Adler not Ritchie.

No idea if he bought Twin Galaxies...

I thought Ritchie didn't own The-1up, but they were speculating that he may be a partial owner, over at classic arcade gaming. I guess we should take this with a grain of salt and try to avoid rumors.
 
Love the line about returning the integrity to the organization. At least the new owners admit up front there is a problem. I wonder if they'll be purging the known and suspect bogus scores?
 
please correct me if i'm wrong, but weren't/aren't some the TG judges comvicted sex offenders?
 
Cool , I might actually care about High Scores now .


Whoa , I just realized what a tremendously smart business move if 1up bought twin galaxies .

That means all the high scores and gamers are gonna go to 1up instead of funspot to set high score records . Its gonna be the new headquarters of classic arcade gaming . What a smart move those guys did buying Twin Galaxies . 1up is gonna be huge now , the 1# spot in the country for arcade gaming .

I wonder if the new owner is going to continue the UBER-AWESOME "Trading Cards" that TG recently put out...

I'd like to see them branch out more towards Japanese and Chinese players. I got a feeling they'd smoke us on most games.

They wouldn't be International unless they did. They need some refs in that part of the world. They've had overseas refs before. Maybe they will again.
 
With these guys in charge, there should be a little more emphasis and focus placed on the arcade dedicated coin-op end of things, at least... **fingers crossed**:)

The absolutely hilarious part about those cards is that there was no sense of humor whatsoever (from what I saw) in their promotion. It's like they were...*laugh*...taking...*laugh*...them...*laugh*...SERIOUSLY!
