im sorry, but these "new" people that have been popping up recently and submitting tons of 1st place recordings at once are making me wonder. And you know who im talking about; No Mercy and this Claudio guy that claims to be from Brazil, which makes no sense what so ever. I cant imagine that the arcade gaming seen is or ever was that good there. Especially since he is playing new games such as MK2. I know im not the only one that has noticed this. More than likely, No Mercy just changed his nick to Claudio and pretended to be spanish. The trends are exactly the same just fighting games this time insted of shooters.

I will say nothing more than this:

You are also kind of new here.

Enough said.

er... they speak Portugese in Brazil, not Spanish, don't they?

MK2 is hardly new either... 7 or 8 years since it was released isn't it?

And I believe they are crazy for fighters in Brazil too...

Brazil also have their own Pro Video Game Team known as the ' Metroid ' team , so I`d imagine the arcade gaming scene is good somewhere in Brazil . It`s a big ole place , y'know.

Well I have one more thing to say to you Richy: TRY TO SHUT YOUR BIG FUCKING MOUTH JUST ONCE OK??? Iīm sick of hearing all your comments about everything here at MARP. You are new here too. Try to show some respect etc. You are just a little coward that hides behind your cpu and donīt even dare to write your own email adress..

Geez ju make me throw up..

I get your point about No Mercy and claudio etc but I donīt like your attitude and I can tell NO ONE on MARP do! You may be right or wrong in this matter, but as long as you write those kind of posts, no one will listen to you...

regards to my fellow marpers (and that is not you Richy, cause you have already spoiled your chances.)

OK, first of all, QRS, calm down. Stop drinking the coffee and just try to relax :) Second of all, Richy, if you had more evidence than this coincidence of floods of #1s, then we might believe you more. Just because there are new #1s in shooters AND fighters doesn't mean that it's the same person. Do you have any other details that we're missing?

It's pretty obvious why we are getting new comers. There is a championship going on and marp is getting tons of press. well not tons but more than it usually gets, this usually relates to more people happening by our site and possibly someone who knows how to play games well or cheat well comes along. so far i've seen no evidence that the new coming 1rst placers are cheating, but they also haven't recorded in mames that we can detect more cheating techniques with (I.e. m35tg3.)

Well, Ive been here for about 2 years now and I have only one thing to say: "NEO DRIFT OUT IS SUCKING MY WILL 2 LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!"

This thread seems to be made for all our poets here ... who's turn ?

Poets' night, was it? Well, it isn't complete without the good old Limerick.

A big-haired mamer from somewhere

thought "I'll give MARP a big scare"

besides all points gained

he screamed and complained

and made QRS tear his last hair
