How could nobody believe anything below 1:17? 55 was always on the cards, lower if people committed (as can be seen here).
And just out of interest, was that my time? Lol, that's like 7/8 now...
Mike, I'm not sure, but for some reason, nobody believed. My original topic may still be around somewhere.
Hehe, I'm pretty sure it was your time ;) Ah well, set a date to practice, and within 1/2 hour you should have a time <1:00, that's for sure.
When I first came, and I posted a :53, my times were all put to 9:59, and someone (Rusty, I'm looking at you) changed my comment to "No, I think not." Then I wasn't able to post or add anymore times until I AIM'd Rolken and sent in my video.
Rolken: 0:51 is definitely possible, and I've seen screenshots of 0:50. IIRC, I think Brian and Xebra had 0:50 before they took down all their times too. If you can get a 10-2 pattern on Robotnik, :51 is easy, making :50 a possibility. As for the :49, I'd go on an act of faith here, especially since Rusty said once that someone at Sonic Cult claimed an 11-1 run. I'd say that :49 is well within reach.
As a side note, it may be impossible to get a 12-0 run, but imagine the time you'd get if you actually got it! O_O
