That's a pretty good Centi high-score. I forgot my recent one's but I once started a spead-sheet and it was indicating 68k.

What are your settings ?

I also would like to use the computer as a Jukebox.
Do you have a particular Jukebox software to recommend? Free if possible...

I wonder if there is a way to automate this, possibly using SQL, or something of that sort, for twin galaxys and for mame people some sort of API to tap into mame and pull the scores of specified games (and overlay them on that games artwork)

I have this thing for Highscores  ::)

What if there was a Highscore database online, where you could enter your scores, and with an open API so that the different gamesites around the net could make "localized" versions for there games and in the sameway you could make a personallist to display in your game rooom?

If there where a gamemeeting/event or something, you just pick the games played, the players and you could generate an event highscore. This would also let you compare scores between events, compare your game room to world records etc etc.

We've had some ideas about it in sweden (at Arkadtorget.se) and we think we need a list of arcade games (there is a PCB DB being made in Japan, there is Klov and there is the list from Mame).

Something to tie things together and still with an open solution thingy so that you could make the highscore lists you like..

Does that sound like something you like?

Maybe I should put my word where my mouth is and try to build a prototype to show off  :!:
