Hello, fellow Video Game enthusiasts;

I used to list my high scores in my signature but I kept running out of characters to list the scores like I wanted so I figured I'd make a list in a topic here on the forums.

I play on my PC using MAME 0.146.  If I use the Pause button for any reason, the game ends right then.  There were no Pause buttons in the arcades.

While playing most games, I use the arrow keys as the joystick and the numpad Enter key as the 'Jump' or 'Shoot' button.
While playing Lunar Lander, I use the left and right arrows for rotation, the numpad Enter key for 'Thrust', and the numpad 0 key for 'Abort'.
While playing Tempest, I use the left and right arrows to move, the numpad Enter key for 'Fire', and the numpad 0 key for 'SuperZapper'.
While playing Tetris, I always start at Level 1, and (obviously) I use the arrow keys as the joystick and the numpad 0 key to rotate the piece.
While playing vs Super Mario Bros, I use the left, right and down keys to move, the numpad Enter key to jump, and the numpad 0 key to run / fire.

With no further ado, here we go:

Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons . . . for you are crunchy and good with catsup.

Yes, I changed my handle.  I was never really happy with Vidiot.
