I noticed that on most Atari consoles, you can't submit a high score. On the Atari 2600 and Atari 7800, there isn't any place to submit it. On the Atari 5200, there is a place but it doesn't work because it doesn't save the screen shots. Does anyone know why it's like this?

Unfortunately, the emulator used for the Atari systems (MESS) doesn't have the option to disable save states to my knowledge.
For that reason, its not possible to prevent cheating, so the high score option isn't available.

You can always take a regular screenshot of your score and submit it.

vanelan : Thank you! I just thought that it was weird that those specific systems didn't have a score board.
