« on: May 05, 2007, 12:39:11 pm »NintenDan has held sway on Sonic Advance since about March of 2004... until ended recently by Zeupar.
Hi mom. :) *waves to imaginary camera*
Anyway I'm sure Ninty will get back the first position soon...

:O. I think it was a personal tussle more than a tussle between two players. It was me against Ninty's great stats.

I have Sonic Advance and Sonic Advance 2. I prefer Sonic Advance's stages and animations but the speed of Sonic Advance 2 pwns. Definitely I vote for Sonic Advance.

Competition Central / Re: Sonic Advance 1 ? Box Manipulation
« on: March 17, 2007, 12:01:19 am »
When you start score attacking stages like Neo Green Hill 2 or Egg Rocket Zoneyou realize that Sonic Advance ? boxes aren't so random... Lately I have played Sonic Advance a lot of time and I have drawn a few conclusions (not solid) about the amount of rings ? boxes give you:
- Some boxes depend on the timer (but in different ways). For example, the first ? box in Egg Rocket Zone will ever gave you 40 rings if you reach the spring under it sub 10 seconds and just after the takeoff you jump on it and hit the box. But I have reached it sometimes over 10 seconds and it gave me 40 as well... Another example would be the first ? box in Secret Base Zone Act 2: it generally gives you more rings if you hit it after 2:00. Generally the ? boxes give you more rings if you hit them when the timer is high (but there are exceptions like the previous example). My best advice would be the following: try getting every single ring in a stage before hitting the ? boxes (if it's possible). It's a risky strategy, but it's the best.
- Some ? boxes never give you 40 rings.For example, the second ? box in Egg Rocket Zone. It almost always gives you 10 or 20 rings (rarely 5, and never 1 or 40). There are more examples of this kind of ? boxes.
- Some ? boxes seem random. I think the number of rings these boxes give you could depend on the timer. For example:
X:XX:00 - X:XX:09 --> 1 rings
X:XX:10 - X:XX:29 --> 5 rings
X:XX:30 - X:XX:49 --> 10 rings
X:XX:50 - X:XX:69 --> 20 rings
X:XX:70 - X:XX:89 --> 30 rings
X:XX:90 - X:XX:99 --> 40 rings
Something likeness this would explain why getting 40 rings out of certain ? boxes is so difficult... Anyway we couldn't take advantage of this kind of boxes.
By the way, which mode have you used to do those tests? I say this because in Time Attack Mode the ? boxes are way more "generous" than in Game Start Mode. This is very easy to check: play ten times Neo Green Hill Zone Act 2 in both modes and plus the results (of the first ? box) for each mode. Because of that I was going to write a topic in rules revisions. This should be clarified in the rules ("Time Attack Mode shouldn't be used when competing for rings or scores").
I guess you have started this topic because you are trying "First" challenge for Sonic Advance, aren't you?

« on: March 16, 2007, 12:18:56 pm »I'm not usually an Advance player, but this brings back to mind an idea I had - we have the Emerald challenges for the genesis titles, why not have some Advance Emerald Challenges for GBA games? I can provide stuff for adv2/Battle. Anyone fancy doing adv3? Should we include Rush? Would anyone actually be interested in this?
Great idea! I think that Quartz could suggest some challenges for Sonic Advance 3.

1. First:
Objective: get a score higher than 110K in Egg Rocket. You can use any character.
2. Random:
Objective: get the three random boxes in Casino Paradise Act 1 with Sonic.
You can't use save states, low motion and blah... blah... blah...
If you demonstrate that you have gotten any of this two challeges you will be rewarded with a secret of Sonic Advance (at least for most of the people).

What I meant was that I have never heard of an official source that Peach was Mario's girfriend. However, in the manual of Sonic Advance (yes, I read the manuals of my games xD) it is said that Amy is Sonic's girlfriend.

I think that Peach isn't Mario's girlfriend. She is only the princess helped by Mario in some games.
