Is using screen capture illegal, if you have access to it?

Instead of taking a photo you mean? Yeah, as long as it's of the hi-score screen, then that's fine! :)


Edit: My current score:

You should update that to the rules.

Two questions:
Is using an emulator allowed?
Is the host eligible to win? Asking this because you have the top score for now and in most of these events, host is ineligible to win.

Sorry no, official games only.
Yes the host is eligible to win. It's up to each host and the type of event that is being run. In this case no advantage could be gained by being host.

I understand but then this fun event suffers from lack of players because the Surfing Pikachu has always been hard to get without using Gameshark and the VC version of Yellow is the only way to play Pikachu's Beach without it. It's hard to believe anyone buys Yellow from VC just for this event.

One fair option is to have 2 categories, one for those who play the official games and another one for emulator players.

I wouldn't expect anyone to buy it just for this event but many people do already have it.

It's just my personal stance but I don't want to promote emulators.

That's good stance, keep it up.
