Title: BS on FoxLuc's Chemical Plant 2 - Sonic record
Post by: Thorn on December 20, 2007, 04:35:36 pm

Nothing major, I just suspect that Sonic & Tails were used, when submissions call for one character only. If this is legit... well, wow. If not, just play again with only one character. Personally, I don't compete in Sonic 2 much anymore, I'm just drawing attention to this for those who do play it.

The "Tails triggers the door" trick was discovered quite a while ago and banned from here, if that's what created this record.

EDIT: The rules have since changed to allow Tails to be controlled by the AI, allowing the strategy in question, but the rest of this topic was made before this change.

Okay, I have to confess I am a little bit confused here. I watched a neat video at

where Joe Stanski storms Chemical Plant Zone, Act 2 in :39. Yet the former record ( Joe's and eredani's ) was :52. I honestly don't get it.

SDA doesn't have a rule against using Sonic and Tails.  TSC's rules state you may not use the Sonic & Tails team.
