OK. Thing is that there's a glitch in Shadow the Hedgehog that allows you to start moving before a level or boss starts. If you're on the load screen and you press A (GameCube version) to jump and you time it right, then you can get a quick jump before a boss begins or a level starts. I find this glitch hard to activate, but it does make me think about whether it is fair (or not) to get a quicker start this way. I have known about this glitch for a while now, and I was able to use this glitch to get my Black Bull: Hero: 0:13:13 stat (this was back in July 2010)

I'm bringing this up now because of the recent rulings with Sonic Heroes Team Boss Battles, and because of my second thoughts about this (I've been thinking about this for a long time now). This glitch in Shadow kind of works like that Heroes glitch where you restart and you kill the other team in like 1 second, but for shadow's case, the boss doesn't die wicked fast, Shadow just gets a faster start by jumping during the load screen. Lastly, this glitch only works in places where Shadow starts out on the ground (like boss battles, and a few of the levels) or where you control Shadow straight from the start (like Glyphic Canyon, Air Fleet and The ARK).

Whether you guys want to make a ruling on this or not is up to you. If you have questions or want me to explain more details than feel free to ask.

General Sonic / Shadow the Hedgehog video requests
« on: December 08, 2010, 11:10:57 am »
Since I've started to make videos, I was wondering if anyone had any requests of what they'd like to see get done. I'll try to do these requests to the best of my ability (and memory though I'm pretty sure I remember the strategies.) I'll try to do what's requested however I'm sure some requests will be better than others (there are some annoying strategies that are difficult to work with to get the record.) I've already made a few videos for Shadow and you can check these out on YouTube. I guess I'll accept re-do requests (videos I've already made but are horrible or are not close to the record even though it's the same strategy, take The Doom: Dark: 2:51:13 as an example since it's 9 seconds off the record) though I'll probably do non re-dos first. I'll try to set new records in the videos, my current records are a sight to behold, but I don't think they're perfect yet.

I hope to get some videos done over Christmas break (provided people actually request stuff, and my game treats me nicely.) Also, this is for Shadow the Hedgehog requests only (obviously.)

Try to post your requests in this format:
level: mission (dark, hero, normal): division (time or score) -or- boss: division (puro hero, hero, neutral, dark, pure dark) -or- level: rings

Link to my channel:

Well, I hope to see people requesting. Thanks for your time. Also, make sure you check my channel (or the videos section) so you don't request something that has already been done (unless you want it re-done.)

Leaderboard Disputes / ATTN: RPGnutter
« on: May 01, 2010, 09:32:27 pm »
How did you get your Iron Jungle Hero time in Shadow the Hedgehog? Are you sure you didn't take any necessary deaths? I was trying today and I got a 0:20:68, however I took a death after the mission completed (which I believe is in violation of the competition rules). The Egg Balloon needs 13 Shadow rifle shots to die, and I can't see using other weapon to get a time as low as 20 seconds, but I suppose I could be wrong (maybe you guys know a faster way to the 2nd check). Basically, I think RPGnutter broke the rule that states:
If you die after completing a mission objective, your stat does not count.

Also (just to make sure I understand this), for a run to be legal: you have to fire the last shot (or homing attack) and then wait until the game says the mission is complete, NOT fire the last shot, die and then the mission is completed after the death.

Overall, RPG if you can clearly remember your strategy, and it is legal then can you kindly post it here (or at least prove you didn't cheat), if not then I think you broke the rules with this mission. Thanks for your time.

EDIT1: I improved my 0:25:11 to 0:24:23, however I still don't see how 20 seconds is possible besides the method mentioned above. Also, I think I'll let sonicam off the hook here because I could probably reach his time with more patience (and frustration).

EDIT #2: Actually, I just tied sonicam, but I still can't see where to cut 3 more seconds off.

Competition Central / Would anyone like any Shadow strategies?
« on: August 08, 2008, 10:45:17 pm »
Hello everyone, ODJ here. Would anyone like any Shadow strategies? I would like to give anyone the opportunity to improve if they want to, so I decided to make this topic. I'll tell you all right now that some strategies might not be done the way you think they are done. So if you'd like any or you're unsure of a strategy, just list them in your reply.

Beef / Error in my Shadow Normal Times: Total!!!
« on: June 01, 2008, 11:34:47 pm »
I just submitted an improvement in my Iron Jungle Normal time and the site added about 1 Minute and 30 seconds to my total normal times. I think there's a problem. I actually added up all my times mathematically and I believe I should be at 23 Mins 54 secs 18 milliseconds. (My math could be wrong, but even so, my total should not be 25 mins 28 seconds 22 milliseconds). So can someone fix this??

Competition Central / Shadow: The Last Way: Normal: Score
« on: March 02, 2008, 06:46:45 pm »
Can we make this a submittable statistic in the Shadow Rankings?
All you'd need to do is add up your normal score with the Time Bonus. (Make sure you see your Normal Score before the screen whites out) So let's say I had 400 Normal Points and i finished in 1:29:xx. That would be 50,000(time bonus) + 400 for a total of: 50,400 points.
As a tip: if you finish in 1:30 you get 42800 points not 43000 (Groudon made a mistake in his Score Attacking Guide) and then you subtract 80 for each second after 1:30:
So 1:31 would give you: 42720  
and 1:32 would give you: 42640
and 1:29 or below will obviously give you: 50000
So can this be another stat for the Shadow Rankings?
