Well the actual attempt count is currently at 2249, but people have to understand that I don't spend more than a couple seconds on each of my attempts, I make full use of the resume feature so that I can perfect portions of each run.

I figure once I had done the practice I thought I needed, it took about 100-200 attempts to sew it all together into a moderately successful run, this was the first time I completed the route, it can go much faster.

I wonder if this is a valid short cut possibility

haha i tried this exact same thing earlier today, but even if you land it i don't think that it will save that much time

I wondered if you could time it and do a cable-car grab on the second-from top platform then zoom to the right.
But unfortunately, I am not Chuck Norris

I've done it before this was in HoF, but I lost too much time by the last platform. You can't keep the momentum necessary. All the same, it looks great.

The resume feature... man that must be pretty cool. The only levels I did something similar to that are Coal Miner and Cave Dweller, but what I actually did was split the level into 2 parts with level editor. Once I was confortable with both 'halves' of the levels, I played for real and sped up the process. I should download the new stuff. I don't even have the version that shows the updated graffics. Mine still has the stick man only! Crazy right?

By the way... I know it's actually 'graphics'. At a previous job I had, we used 'graffics' all the time because of a program we had so I put that out of pure habit. I promise I am not trying to compete with Pickle

Here is what I've been working on. It looks to be a 5-6 second move. I've pulled it off a couple of times with the resume feature.

I am speechless. I cannot believe how perfect this is.
I played this level so much that I thought I was gonna have to get a thumb operation...
and yet you come along and make the exact same run as mine (with the flip) and you walloped me.

Geez. I forgot how competitive I am.

I remember this clearly. You were really on edge on August 9, 2008. Did your mom take your t-bird away? Btw, I think the other route is faster.

Then how come nobody can beat my time with the 'other route'?

Hey Mike, welcome back! We really really missed you.

I knew it had to be sooner than later, which is why I knew it was pointless to compete with Brian for the #1 spot.

And which points of my contradict my final statement? The one about you keeping all of your games secret even though you have a crazy insurmountable lead?

Yep, I think you're right...

Mr.pickle.

It says august 9 for me too, it must be because the server adjusts to time zones by itself.
