0.143 would be nicer to use, for us non-Windows users.

Yes, that's currently an issue, but uploads still go through, as you will see when you next check the uploads page.

How was this issue considered in previous Knockouts?
And do you know how many "K9" users are affected by this? Or regular users?

The upload says you have used Wolf 105, but Wolf 106 is needed for the K9.

Hope you made a mistake when choosing the version when uploading, if so, reupload it man.

This game really does look like, and play like the game called Marchen Maze (Japan), but Magical Crystals is top down 2D, and Marchen Maze has an Isometric 3D part to it, but seems very similar to this game.

It's really up to you. Sometimes multiple versions have been allowed. If you allow multiple versions of MAME I'd recommend you specify only 2 specific versions (.106 and a specific recent version). You'll need to be careful if you allow multiple versions though since you'll need to playtest all games you pick in both versions, and if there are differences in the emulation in the game between the versions (or the romsets) you can bet that somebody will figure it out and players will "migrate" to the easier version for that game. Also note that newer versions of WolfMAME don't create .wlf files.

I'm sure it will grow on me. I gave it a college try before bed, just messing around.
