Good god, who is that "toddrogers" guy in the Atari 2600 high score section??? Take a look at those scores!!! If those are real, this guy hasn't done anything else than playing videogames in the last 25 years, 365 days a year, 24 hours a day ... @_@

Haha! Surely you've heard of Todd Rogers!
He's the real deal. Guys like Todd and Billy Mitchell travel with Twin Galaxies during the year (they've both been to Classic Gaming Expo to show off their prowess on several occasions). These guys play like ROBOTS, it's just amazing to watch.

Todd is a legend, all right. The man was seriously playing vid games back in the '80s and he hasn't let up in nearly 30 years. Those scores are all real, have no doubt.
However....ARRRRRGGGGHHHHH! Who the hell is Mike Morrow?!?! I just went to check my Halloween high score on Twin Galaxies (200,000+ pts. - Atari 2600) and he's TRIPLED IT! Dammit! Dammit! Dammit! Looks like ol' Mike's got a bunch of other high scores listed as well.
Time to shoot for that Million-point Halloween marathon I've been contemplating....

"Robots" must be the right word, yes. That's really incredible!!!
Well ... I've already talked to Nick Price about that - would be great if we could have at least 3 entries per game in the databse, the more the better. So we could at least fight the for second places in those game where Todd holds the high score. :D
To save space on the screen it should show only the high score like now, but when you click on a game title or an icon near the game title, it could open a list with the other scores for that game ...

THAT sounds like a GREAT idea!
