I went through the Sonic 1/2/3/Knuckles rankings just then and noticed something quite interesting.
In particular I was looking for any users with a quadrella of total times - for Sonic 1, 25 minutes, 50 for Sonic 2, 75 for Sonic 3 (not counting Time Attack, obviously), and 100 for S&K.
Practically everyone who has a total time listed falls under these guidelines, suggesting my expectations might have been a bit low. (Notably, though, the only two players to actually fit all four criteria are myself and SM.)
This has led me to look at a much tougher assignment - a quadrella of 20/40/60/80. As of now it hasn't been done, but I'm close - 81:30 on S&K and 61:57 on S3.
Which brings me to another question to ask the lot of you, but in particular one Mr. Ward - how fast could all these totals go with savestates? (38 minutes for S3&K with Sonic suggests a total of under 2 hours for the three characters - probably closer to 1:40. I wonder then, if 15/30/45/60 could be done...)
And if you're wondering why I bothered... what are YOU doing to keep the forum alive? :(
