FINALLY! Jesus Fucking Christ, this level was a massive pain in the arse. 58 hour grind, longer than any of my other IL grinds by a significant margin, and by that I mean nearly 43 hours longer. Used a slightly different strat for the second cluster of crabs to avoid frame jumping through them and increase consistency: A lot of my runs died around this point for no discernable reason, and after refining the slope jump timing and including this new strat, 0:28 only took 2 hours to get. Definitely one of the best records in the game, and needs a deep knowledge and skillset to break; Extremely happy with this one.

The result is not close and is why this vote needed to happen.
The default timing method for Sonic 1 1991 moving forward is RTA-TB. IGT is still relevant as a secondary timing method.
