There is a new feature on the board called the Arcade! It features 5 games: Breakout, Pacman, Snake, Space Invaders, and Tetris.

There is also an added feature to this added feature. Each game costs $10 MB Cash, or you can buy a lifetime pass for $500. Each time a person plays a game the 'jackpot' for that game increases. When you play you get the jackpot amount divided by the position you received. So if the jackpot is $100 and you get 2nd place then you get $50. If youg et first then you get all $100. Pretty neat :)

Give it a try: http://board.midibuddy.net/proarcade.php

Aw, everyone already made their fortunes by playing up from low scores - now they're too hard to beat :)

(<-- Only bitter because he didn't think to play the hell out of the games when they first showed up like everyone else)

Hmmmm - would it be *impolite* to make my hubby (the gaming master) play under my user name ;) ???

Hey! *scratches head*

Well, no laws against that :). As for politeness, what folks don't know won't annoy them...

I'll bet that not everyone would be so forgiving Mr. Magnaminity ;)

If I could say it, I'd think it was magnanimity... Sure! Caught me in blatant favoritism...

Well, who can blame me! :-p

why has the Pacman jackpot changed to a mere $25MB? That was my fave game of the lot! :mad: :hit:

tavenger5

11-20-2002, 01:28 PM

Cause someone else won it. The more people play the more the jackpot goes up. I believe it's $35 more each time someone plays.

sarahqt

11-20-2002, 07:44 PM

I havent won yet, but almost !
