2+3 - 1+0 + 2+0+1+4 = 11

TSC has turned 11!11 Math proves that the universe is trying to tell us something. Thankfully, Gerbil was able to fix the site and reenable submissions just in time for its birthday. To celebrate it, Thorn and I have been actively deleting incorrect records that have been sitting in our rankings for quite a while. Therefore, if you see one or more of your records disappear during the next few days, that means you are in our blacklist and will never be able to sign up for TSC Gold, and "gold is better than silver" (the Pokémon games being one of the few exceptions).

Since TSC has been fixed and has a good chance of receiving a much-needed facelift (new features and chart design will be implemented if Gerbil finally gives STL access to the site), you can progressively stop being sad and start sleeping again. In the meantime, rejoice at some of the amazing new world records a few our members have set during the last thirty days:

• Vicklaw put an end to SDM's zero-point ring leadership on Sonic the Hedgehog 3 after completing the first act of Carnival Night zone with 872 rings, beating the 2009 record by 25 rings.
• hfactor66, the allegedly No. 1 fan of Amy whose distracting forum signature had to be confiscated for evidence, beat several 8-year-old ring records in Sonic Rush.
• TSC's most prolific kid kept hammering "uber" Unleashed pretty hard, including managing to finally break the four-minute barrier in Eggmanland. He also recorded an inspiring ring attack.
• Diamond beat a 7-year-old time record by MCwooterz in Sonic Pocket Adventure and dedicated it to his... cat?
• hanpen357 beat a 5-year-old time record by Miles9999 in Sonic Unleashed lite.

I have a lot of free time at work now, so I'm considering writing monthly competition updates from now on.

P.S.: Lugia >> Ho-Oh

[InferSaime]

I have to  disagree with lugia being better than Ho-oh.

Anyway happy birthday TSC :D

If someone gets on blacklist, will we be contacted about it? D:

Happy birthday TSC! Glad I could be here to celebrate with you guys :) Even though I haven't been here long competing has been very fun.

[Diamond]

Happy birthday TSC!
Also, I was dedicating it to my dog Sirius, who we had to put down about a month ago ;.;

[Groudon]

I've been here for 9 of these years, and happened to join on the 2nd anniversary.  Guess I have 2 things to celebrate today.

Herpy Derpday TSC!!!

At first, I thought there was an extra letter in "Derpday", and I was thinking it's a few months early for that.

• hfactor66, the allegedly No. 1 fan of Amy whose distracting forum signature had to be confiscated for evidence, beat several 8-year-old ring records in Sonic Rush.

You bet I am & you bet I did :) RA is an interesting category to me cuz it's a question not commonly thought of in Sonic games, "how many rings are there in *insert level name here*?" When I think about it, it makes me want to go find out what the exact max is. It's especially fun when there's random ring monitors, preferably more than one, to keep it interesting, & it keeps you trying to get the higher ring values from them, in the cases of LS1, NC1 & HC2 w/Blaze on Rush my persistence really paid off in the end, all 3 of those ranging from an estimated 80-200+ attempts each to get the right #s from the random ring monitors. Also I figure if speed isn't really my thing on every Sonic game I play, then RA might as well be. I don't really know where my RA skills will take me next... right now I'm doing a Sonic 2 Carnival Night RA for CyberScore, it kinda disappoints me that there's no chart for it here...

[DarkPolarNight]

Happy 11th TSC! :D

[DGF]

HAPPY 11TH BIRTHDAY TSC

[Combo]

cool

[I~Weltall]

Oh well, guess this is a proper place to burn that rare first post. Happy birthday TSC!

Ho-Oh all the way. Firebirds are best birds. (Except when they are not.)

[SB737]

I literally cannot believe that it's a year since TSC was 10, gone so fast! Happy birthday TSC!! :)

[SpinDashMaster]

Vicklaw put an end to SDM's zero-point ring leadership on Sonic the Hedgehog 3

Nope.

I've actually lost that award several times (Most recently because of SB737's appearance) and reclaimed it shortly afterward. This is no different.

[SuperSonicfan9595]

Happy Birthday TSC!!!

[Zeupar]

If someone gets on blacklist, will we be contacted about it? D:

Does a mondolio nako chagui count as "contact"?

Yes, he did.

Well, of course it wasn't different from those previous instances in which you lost the award. What's your point?

By the way, anyone who was disrespectful to the great Lugia is banned.

[SB737]

I gave SDM 2 points to the leadership, this time he only got one (smirk)

[RigidatoMS]

I'm late, but Happy Birthday TSC! By the way, anyone here is looking for a DSS' record?

[Pokemonmaster888]

Happy Birthday TSC! I'm glad to see that the submission downtime period is over and that competition is back up and running. I also can't believe it's been a year since TSC's 10th anniversary, time flew by quite fast. I look forward to continue competing myself again soon, as I've taken a bit of a break from Sonic games for the time being. Best wishes for TSC's future, and for these awesome new updates to be implemented! TSC! TSC! :D

Also, go Lugia! Glad to see my favorite Pokemon of all time getting some well deserved praise! (Ho-Oh rocks as well, don't get me wrong :))
