Rules & Points (taken from the Console World Charts)
--------------------------------------------------

            All releases before 24.00 EST at the end of each month are counted.
-1 Point    DUPE: Released a game, but only after another group already beat
            you?  -1 point then.
            DUPE TRAINER: A Late Trainer with the same or less options.
            BROKEN: If you release a game/trainer/crack that doesn't work,
            -1 time!

+0 Points   BETA: Beta releases are cool to check out, but they are not
            the real deal. No points are given or taken for these.
            TERRITORY DUPE: If a game is released in Europe first and
            contains English, then a following USA release is considered
            a territory dupe. If a game is released in the USA first,
            and it releases later in Europe with no additional languages,
            it is also considered a territory dupe. Games that have
            additional game features/levels/etc. added are void from
            territory dupe rules. Only Roms that contain differences
            when file compared fit into the territory dupe category,
            if a Rom is the exact same in 2 territories, it fits into
            the -1 dupe category. Territory dupes receive 0 points.
            FIX: A non-protection related fix for a released game gets 0
            points.

+1 Point    TRAINER: Any selectable trainer including a menu receives
            1 point.
            MULTI: A European Multi Language release of a previously
            available US title.
            FOREIGN: A German/French/Spanish/Etc. release of a
            previously available English title.

+2 Points   AVERAGE JAPANESE: An average Japanese game. Most RPGS,
            Mahjong titles, Slot games, Sims, Adventures, etc. will be
            put into this category. These receive 2 points.
            FOREIGN WORLD FIRST: If a German/French/Spanish/Etc. game
            is out before the English version, it gets 2 points.
            CRACK: A crack for a protected/non-working game gets you 2
            points.

+3 Points   ENGLISH WORLD FIRST: The first release of a game in English.
            This is generally the first release of the game available,
            either in Europe or the USA. These receive 3 points.
            QUALITY JAPANESE: A quality Japanese title that is either
            highly awaited or playable will receive 3 points. Generally
            games from major companies due out for release later
            in English will fit into this category. Most action games,
            fighting games, etc. will also fall under this category.
