Summary	01994: birdtry: Birdie Try - Game locks up after first hole.
Description	There is already a recorded protection emulation fault, but the game is listed as working. After completing the first hole, the game switches to a score screen, but the graphics are all black on a green background. The music loops continuously and nothing else happens, except credits will still register on the meter at the bottom of the screen. There seems to be no way to make the game continue from this point.
Steps To Reproduce	Play the game as normal and complete the first hole. You will then encounter the bug.

No.01562 Tafoid Administrator Jul 9, 2008, 19:29	Thanks for the submission. I'll confirm it so we have something logged to cover the game. As a rule, sets which show a disclaimer screen are not usually accepted as bugs and are already known either by the developers or are duly noted as having problems in the source code. Such is the case in this instance - the disclaimer screen being RED (not working) - a unemulated protection bug is considered the same type of bug as if it were showing Game Does Not Work. Please refer to the Rules and Guidelines link above - Item #9 for items which are not to be reported on.
