As some of you know, I'm kind of new (joined about 6 months ago). I've been playing SA(DX) for a while, but I'm only at 41.7%. It's my goal to get 80% or more, so if anyone could look at my records and tell me how to improve them I'd be really happy. (I've submitted everything but most of the bosses.)
Especially the bad ones. And obviously some (like 3 rings in Knuckles' Lost World) were only submitted to raise my totals.

An easy thing to say is to max these:

Otherwise, the general strategy for getting into 80% or above for any game with a high amount of players is to get rid of all of your yellow/green/blue stats and turn them into oranges/reds/platinums.

and you can learn the techniques of how the top 20% do this by watching teh videos :O

I wish I could watch the videos but I have dial-up (56kbps) so it takes about ten minutes per megabyte.
