I've looked around and saw a challenges thread, but it seems to have stopped in April, so I'm going to start them up again and run them. These will be challenges from all different games, and I'm going to start with Sonic Generations as I know that game well and can think of lots of challenges for it. Each challenge will last 2 weeks, and the five fastest people will receive the points. An overall leaderboard will be updated after each game.
The first challenge will start on Saturday October 6th at 00:00 GMT and last for 2 weeks. After that a challenge now starts on a Saturday, and Finishes on a Saturday (It finishes at Midnight On A Saturday But The challenge may be announced earlier than midnight). I will announce the challenge just before it starts. The aim is to complete the challenge as fast as possible. Here are how the points will be distributed:
1st â€“ 10 points
2nd â€“ 8 points
3rd â€“ 5 points
4th â€“ 3 points
5th â€“ 1 point
Bonus points may be awarded and the challenge will say so if thatâ€™s the case. Check back here when the challenge starts on Saturday to see what it is. You must post your time (no cheating or else you'll not be allowed to participate), if you want to post a Youtube link for extra proof feel free. If you want to post a link of a YouTube Video for your time you can do, but you don't have to. :P
Just to reiterate you DON'T need a video as proof. But you CAN if you want to.
Good luck everyone!
If you have any ideas for challenges then please send me a PM, please don't post the idea as a reply.

Not to pick fault with the idea (because it's a good one and I enjoyed running it myself), but requiring a youtube video may exclude a fair few people who would otherwise enter. Recording, editing and uploading can be a big hassle to have to do for something "fun"!

i think ur right i'll change that rule

OK Guys, This is the first challenge:

TSC Challenge 1
Name: Fire Jumper
Game: Sonic Generations
Level: Green Hill Act 1
Requirements: Equip the fire shield skill, then as soon as the level starts press Y/Triangle, to have the fire shield, then only jump (that means you can only press A for Xbox, and X for PS3) to complete the level. You have to complete the level without touching the analog stick or the D-pad. You aren't allowed to spindash. This took me about 10 minutes to do, and takes a little practice. Remember ONLY press the Jump button.

Although I'm not participating in this challenge (because I don't own Generations <_<), may I bring to your attention that, in case you have not realized, the YouTube video which you have posted a link to is private. Making it public would allow everyone to see it (unless you have intentionally made it private, in which case I beg your pardon).

SB737 · « **Reply #7 on:** October 06, 2012, 02:08:39 pm »

it is intentionally private, so you have to work it out for yourself, it will become public once the challenge is over

romanemul · « **Reply #8 on:** October 06, 2012, 03:13:08 pm »

got 51.65

SpanielWare · « **Reply #9 on:** October 06, 2012, 04:10:42 pm »

Sorry SonicBoom737, I misinterpreted you, I assumed that the example video was a demonstration of the challenge and therefore was meant to be public. Anyway it's a cool challenge, I would participate if I had the game.

Ajavalo · « **Reply #10 on:** October 07, 2012, 11:50:09 am »

This took longer than it should have! Done in 1:33.45.

Werey · « **Reply #11 on:** October 07, 2012, 11:58:49 pm »

1;18;48. Quite a nice tricky challenge.

Edit: I just got 51;68 on another try. Will this be valid as it's a second submission?

Werey · « **Reply #15 on:** October 19, 2012, 05:46:03 am »

Could I suggest reducing the time between challenges from 2 weeks?

SB737 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 19, 2012, 06:12:37 am »

i think thats a good idea, i think i'll change it to a week in future

Juts To let everyone know the time a challenge lasts is now 1 week :)

Werey · « **Reply #17 on:** October 19, 2012, 06:15:43 am »

So does the next one start today?

Actually the challenge is impossible because you cannot complete it without the last ring.The big one.

Lol

^I don't care what anyone says, that should be on the front page as one of those quotes.

I've edited the challenge, tbh that was insanely hard, this is alot easier.

Werey · « **Reply #27 on:** October 21, 2012, 11:33:36 am »

Hmm, this is going to take a while. and Darkaura, there's already a quote like that.

Ajavalo · « **Reply #28 on:** October 21, 2012, 11:50:00 am »

I've done 2:57:03 with 1 Ring, and then 2:41:00 with 5 Rings. In my opinion, avoiding Rings isn't that hard, except for two spots in the 2D temple section. The difficult thing is speed running it, since you have to maneuver around Rings at high speed and manage your limited boost.

that means your current best time is 2:46.00
