The Crap Tournament is a yearly MAME competition where all the titles are selected based on their relative obscurity or overall lousiness. Every year brings in new pure crap and some hidden gems - you'll play some of the worst games ever made, and discover some amazing titles you never would've played without the tournament. The games are hilarious, but the competition is fierce.

Think you're a true gamer? Come prove it in the Crap Arena.

The tournament consists of 12 games. Ten are announced at the start of the tournament and two are announced at the beginning of the closing weekend. Proper game settings will be detailed for each title.

All submissions must provide either an INP or link to a Twitch stream highlight. WolfMAME 0.183, 0.273 are the only acceptable MAME versions for this competition. If a player somehow actually has cab access to one of the Crap titles they are of course welcome to play on the original hardware.

General tournament rules still apply: For MAME, no autofire, no pausing, and average recorded speed must be 95% - 101%. All scores must be submitted within 24 hours of when they were achieved. In case of ties, first submission takes priority.
