I don't think so. This calls into question the legitimacy of all of his other records especially due to the fact that he doesn't understand the rules. Even stats like this one are suspicious to me because it just totally reminds me of that time when Aitamen submitted a full sheet of records that tied the previous record to S3 and S&K, even though half the records at the time could end up being improved by quite a large margin.

Yeah so that strategy is pretty much completely wrong. I think your knowledge of the rules speaks for itself in more ways than just "I don't know them." And your other excuse sounds like if a teacher asked you for your homework and you said "My dog ate it."

Barring the rate at which you are submitting highly skilled statistics to the site from discussion, I find this stat pretty interesting because, to my knowledge, nobody has publicly made available a .giz describing the route. Please describe how you got this stat.

Who really cares about the competition in TSC as anything but a social function?

How about if you recognize that your TAS seems to need a lot of work seeing as someone on this site clearly has your TASed speedrun beat? Or maybe you'd like to see how skillfully we are able to play these games? It is clear to regulars that this site also has a social function via the chatroom/forum, but if you're only here to make friends, then clearly theres a good bit of site here you wouldn't be using as a member. I doubt it's in the site's best interests to turn it into a community that caters to itself and only itself.

Perhaps this site inspires people to play the games more often than debating on a logical reason as to why theres 6 chaos emeralds in sonic 1 and 7 in the rest except for Sonic the Fighers which has 8 or why Marine's existence has a point. That's what makes this site stand out among Sonic fansites. The point of it at its core is to play Sonic games. Not travel the world internets in search of Sonic-the-Hedgehog related news and posting that the next Sonic game is set in a place called Pizza Land and that Sonic Team is definitely reinventing Sonic the Hedgehog with this one, or typing a six-page essay on why Sega isn't cool anymore, or make animations of Knuckles flipping off rainbows, or concocting a team of individuals to program an amazing game that Sega will sue the creators of because it's so awesome. Given the sites features, a comprehensive list of people's best statistics for any given Sonic game (that matters), a record of how all players statistics progressed, a ranking system that encourages people to improve, and a plethora of all kinds of media discussing all the ins and outs of all different Sonic games, I think it's pretty clear where this site stands among all the others.

If our primary concern is to "recruit" new members, then clearly we need to do a few things:
- Prove that our system of honor works, or alter it somehow. When a member like smizzla who was #1 sitewide gets banned for cheating, it clearly raises serious doubts about the validity of our process and doesn't help at all when people come here and are wondering if someone can post kind-of-real records and get away with it.
- Enhance the new-user accessibility. And I don't mean wheelchair accessibility. I mean, if some dude comes here from Sonic Stadium, clearly they're gonna be like "wow this site looks ancient". I like the themes as much as the next guy, but for the new user, they're probably not as exciting as they used to be. :(
- Fix the irregularities of the site. Like the overlapping rule standards of some of the games in which we allow Advance 2 score scalping and don't allow roll-comboing a badnik in Lava Reef 2 for an incredibly high yet just-as-finite score.
- Make the subsites less thoroughly neglected. I mean there's New Records on TUSC from April. :(

Once all that is completed by whoever, then we have a better chance at enslaving the minds of poor Sonic gamers who figure that this place is the best place to compete, because they happen to be right.

Alternate: http://www.spriters-resource.com/other_systems/sonicadven/sheet/10796
Alternate: http://skylights1.googlepages.com/Item_TileSet_SonicAdventure_SA2Maps.jpg

Also, if you're suggesting the point of this site is merely to inform the internet about the best Sonic records in existence and compete, I would have to disagree. To me, the point of this site is more about a learning experience about the in's-and-outs of Sonic games - something that 90% of Sonic fans are clearly not interested in, instead discussing things like why Marine is a relevant character at all. We may not be a resource site in the ways that yonder topic-maker made clear that he's looking for, but that doesn't necessarily have to stop any of us from directing him to that resource. We are clearly a bastion of Sonic-game knowledge.

Which is why it annoys the crap out of me that people taking his cluelessness so seriously and railing on the dude for "wanting them on the site so he can steal it". Does that kind of mannerism help anyone? Maybe it helps someone feel like they're important to everyone else here after they boast about how much it sucks for a few paragraphs so they don't have to actually try to be a decent person, but the dude is still there looking around for stuff.

To be fair, he didn't really make it evident in his first post that he was looking for those resources. Typically, it makes sense for a topic that requests a resource to be like:

Hey, anyone know where to find ____?

But clearly you need to use your imagination to understand why he's asking for TSC to put these maps up. So think for a moment. Imagine that you know relatively nothing about Sonic Adventure competition. You find a site that has maps for all sorts of Sonic games! You look for the maps in the Sonic Adventure map screens.. where are they?! Certainly the site would be completionist/Certainly the site would find these maps useful! Why not tell them they should have these maps!!! Still not as great of an idea as just asking for them, but hey.



tl;dr: people here shouldn't be obsessed with beating the crap out of total noobs and leave the job to the people that will actually help + topicmaker needs to cut to the chase in the future

If you mistyped 123xxx as 113xxx then it wouldn't be a record and you wouldn't need absolute proof that a better record was made, now would you?

You can't keep up this charade forever. You hide from behind your fuzzy picture that merely proves your unwillingness to cooperate. You refuse to give a meaningful description of what you did in Mirage Road 1 besides a couple of springs you jumped over. In asking what an Action Replay is, "is it an R4 with cheats", you pretty much say that you have an R4, which can be google'd very easily to find that it has Action Replay functionality inside of it.

You are a liar.

Leaderboard Disputes / Re: ATTN: fireboy

« on: February 15, 2009, 02:30:29 pm »

The only way you can potentially cut off 20 seconds from Mirage Road 1 with either character is if you do it illegitimately. First you would need to avoid taking the trolley that you would begin riding about halfway through the level, which is in one of my Youtube videos. The problem now becomes how to get over the massive gap in between you and the spring at the end of the trolley section.

The only possible solution is to use an Action Replay device to give yourself the ability to moonjump. But of course you knew that.

I skipped the spring at 2:03 by using a high jump and reached the goal ring.

You can't skip that spring otherwise. Sonic and Blaze don't jump high enough normally.

And another thing. Your DL1 Sonic score is 123xxx. Here's how the math works:
85000 max for time bonus.
20000 max for trick bonus.
10000 max for speed bonus. (you did not max this because the last x is not a 0)
That would leave about 8000 extra points for your ring bonus, meaning you collected at least 800 rings. The only problem here: it's impossible to get that many rings in this level! The level does not have more than the 519 possible using the best possible ring collection route.

Any last words?

An explanation of what he did is more than enough. It will allow other people, such as myself, to confirm whether or not a strategy is reasonable and valid.
