There will be a single 5-minute warm-up practice before your official high score run attempt. The judge will start their stopwatch when the game begins. The competitor will be given a single 5-minute attempt to reach their best high score. The judge will let the player know when it is a 2-minute warning and then a one-minute warning when the judge announces that the time has ended. The competitor will politely put down their controller. Their score will be taken and recorded by the official on that TV. If the player loses all of their lives, the high score will be recorded from that attempt.
