Sonic Adventure 2 (Battle) Division
If you have read my other topic, you probably understand what this challenge is. The goal is to simply beat a level, pressing the A button as little as possible. Here are the rules:
1. You may only do this in the stages listed below. You are welcome to suggest more though if you have a good reason they should be included.
2. You may do anything - and that means ANYTHING that does not involve pressing A inside of a level (unless of course you are adding to your A count and using a move that requires "A"). The only exception to this rule is the Cannon's Core Freestyle Glitch - it may not be done.
3. You do not need to provide a video, but be prepared to explain your strategy if someone asks or challenges your score.
4. No swapping controls in any way. "A" makes you jump among other things. You may not set air dash, glide, jump, hover, homing attack, or any other thing that normally requires A to a different button.
Here is how scoring works:
1. I am recording only ONE RECORD PER LEVEL.
2. The basic priority is the ammount of times you pressed A. If you took 1.03.05 on a level pressing A 3 times, and someone else took 36.35.12 pressing A 2 times, their record would go in instead of yours.
3. When multiple scores tie in "A-presses", the next thing looked at is RANK. This is not score, but the actual letter rank you got. A high B and a low B are both Bs, and are both considered even in the scoring system.
4. Finaly, if "A-presses" and rank are both tied, the record goes to the fastest time.
