My PB in 100% is 33:47, which is pretty damn close to the time cap of 30 minutes. There are plenty of improvements to be made, and the reason there is a time cap is because of the achievment "Time Flies" which requires you to play the game for 30 minutes. I was wondering if when this time cap is hit, could we perhaps remove this achievement and have it be 97%? All Acts PB = 9:52 (10:50 recorded) All Stars PB = 18:18 100% PB = 33:47

Previously there was a small WW in level 5 saving about 8 seconds, but it's very difficult because it is frame perfect. Now I have discovered a way that this WW is not needed, and is very easy to pull off. On top of that, it saves about 18 seconds as oppose to just 8. If you have the low gravity effect on, you can jump from the top of the wall to the right of the spinning scythes by the lever. While there is a kill pane if you try to drop from where the star is, if you jump all the way to the right towards the end portal it does not exist for some strange reason, which is probably just a developer mistake.

Current PB is 11:33 for All Acts but I believe that mid/low 10 is possible.

Is there a way to change my name in the hard mode run? I don't want to take false credit for it.

Ultimate Flash Sonic was first added to the site by breakdancing gamer under the title 'Mario Bros in Sonic World'. It is now in the wrong series. Is there a way to change the series it has been added to?

Do you count loop skips as clips? That's the only think I can think of that would be more than half a second faster.

New Hampshire, USALaserTrap_9 years ago

Really, I think Any% (OoB allowed) should be a misc category, since it's incredibly difficult and also entirely random without being RNG. Plus, it saves much less than half a second of you get a clip first try. So personally I think it belongs as a misc. category or just not at all.

New Hampshire, USALaserTrap_9 years ago

It is... You can see the video jumps. However, I still think we should call the current any% 61 stars instead because you never know when glitches can be discovered.

New Hampshire, USALaserTrap_9 years ago

This is exactly why I called the supposed "Any%" 61 stars instead. I knew there would be some glitch discovered. Is this possible with both characters?

New Hampshire, USALaserTrap_9 years ago

Eh... I just don't find Max% so appealing. Plus we already have Hover Only as a max% category.

Okie Dokie, the rules are done for now!

For turbo FLUDD would it be easier to use the water number?

Working on a route for a category called "100% Minimum FLUDD". Basically, I've been trying to find how much FLUDD is required for this game. So far, I've come up with these rules: FLUDD usage - Tutorial 1: Banned Shines&Star Coins within castle: Banned Jolly Roger Bay: Banned Secret of the Mushroom: Banned Bowser's Trap: 1 full hover only Tutorial 2: 6 rocket blasts only (WIP) Bob-Omb Battlefield shines: Banned Bob-Omb Battlefield star coins: 1 full hover only Cool Cool Mountain: Banned Backyard: Banned Tidal Isle: Banned Shifting Sand Land: Banned Thwomp Castle: Banned Frosty FLUDD: Banned Secret of the Sky: Banned Magma Maze shine: 2 rocket blasts and turbo for the current only Magma Maze star coin: 1 rocket blast only

This is all I've done so far, I will post the rest once I have worked on them.

If the attempted is failed, any person running would be given another chance. Otherwise it would probably be unfair.

This could certainly make for an interesting category IMO, but I will accept any reason should it not be.
