Thanks. :)

By the way, was tying or beating b0-1 your wish, cause you didn't do it? xD
Nice 45-4, it is a long level, you can always find frames to catch! And, finally 21-3 is awesome... I think that your belief in it made your execution of the route much better. I know I tried it and I didn't gain any frame, tho the run was really lame. I will try soon to play it, just to get better position. You can trust me! After gaining 100 of da mn 0ths, I don't put much effort in levels, even my last 0ths aren't great, in my opinion.
Yes, I played dozen levels yesterday almost before midnight, and tried to get any top10 position. Most of them aren't worth mentioning, but I am glad I got 04-0 and 12-3. There is one level where I got 1st place, just behind you... But it wasn't challenging to get it, hence I forgot it. There were levels (maybe just one level) like 07-0 where I couldn't get top10 (stayed 2 frames behind WW). I was at uni today, but I forgot to download the scores, so I will probably do it tomorrow and check top10 count for myself! xD

[Edit]

Some day I saw you played 51-4, shomman. And I thought I could give a shot again, for some other routes I had in mind. I was annoyed with facts that ninja was limited cause of drone paths in 3 situations during the current route. Hence you have to wait a little bit, and calculate. Especially in the end, where you are limited. (I once got 50 with missed one gold piece). I thought how to avoid such situations. Turned out to be hard, maybe impossible. Here are the pictures:

Start is usual, except I do not grab that stack of gold as the current route does. Well, you can see other changes. To explain circles. Gold pieces in red circle (both bigger one and smaller one) must be taken when you are going for exit key. I manage to get to the yellow circle and safely escape from there right before drone comes. If everything is done with superb precision and speed, you could probably get limited by the drone when you get to the green circle. In some cases, with a bit of luck, you will be there right at the time to almost scratch the drone ( after all, if that drone limits you, I bet that won't be big amount of time). When I came to the blue circle, I don't use two jumps to collect gold, I prefer to clip the corner and with some controlling you will have great position to continue the run.

The way back is now much faster. Yellow circle represents the place where you can choose weather to go for the bottom stack of gold, or for the upper one. Going for the upper one is represent on this picture. After some playing I can assure you that it is better to go for the upper one cause you will be limited when you come back for it. Red circle... Well, that is what I yet didn't figure out. Almost always I fall to the stack of gold at same time as drone comes there or just after him.

And, finally to show proof where I actually am at the end. Ignore that black line, I had no time to erase it better... I was even faster, but still not enough to beat the drone.

Oh wow, I thought I did, whoops!

Wow. That's some intense analysis oxy. The limiting drone is super annoying, but I don't think I'll be going for that 0th :)

Well, after I had beaten da mn drone, but with two missed pieces of gold, I finally managed to execute the route on 51-4 ! Near 10k! :D

Damn nice run oxy.

I reached 4 major milestones today:
80 0ths! It's been many ups and downs but I finally reached it [actually 81]. Took 53-1 and 88-4, and after a LOT of time of practicing DAMN low jumps, I took 75-3 as well.
3000 points. I'm coming for you oxy! (not really) [actually 3029]
400 top 10's [exactly], which puts me just above kkstrong!
350 top 5's (take that oxy :P) [actually 357]

Big weekend so far of not doing homework :D

Taken 22-3 from you sho. The thing is I wanted to try better, after Shagbark passed me on it, and moved me out of top5. After I got 8008 easily, I couldn't stop. xD But the run isn't much clean.
And the better news. I have taken 22-1 with a new route. There are few places where ninja is limited, but not like the one place in previous route, where you lose very much. And no hard stuff, like the ending in previous route. This is even prettier! And my score too. You don't see 69 in N2 that often! :D

Oh, great milestones shommman! Tho, you are back to 79 after I have taken 22-3 and Sparta has taken 88-4. You can always try to retake 22-3. I know it can be painful sometimes, cause I already played it before, when I was fighting to get score above 7900 frames. Really odd, how it was much easier now for me to brake 8k mark. So if you passed kk, you are 3rd player with most top10 scores! That is a thing. And especially, your top5s, well done! :D

Sparta, great stuff 3 0ths, 2 from coop. xD You are less than 40 0ths behind him now. 89-2 is awesome, tho by watching coop's run, it was obvious that there are more frames, but getting 84 was lucky for me. I even forgotten when I have done that...

[Edit]

I made a user level: 196590
I tried to do low jump at the end of run on 22-1, never managed to execute it. So you can give it a try. Altho, after I got great score on it without low jump, I believe the low jump would give slower run... Never mind, you could try just to be sure, sho. I believe you would execute it at least once! xD

Ah yeah oxy, 22-3 is a bitch. I have just improved 2 frames but i have no idea where the frames come from! I got an agd-1 equivalent 16 but I didnt think it was very good!

Damn dude, nice innov on 22-1. I'll give it a go soon :). Yeah I'll try the low jump, but I think you're right, that'll be slower. Ill still test it though :)

Thanks! :) I got 89-2 by an accident, i had a little struggle to achieve 84 and just aimed for the tie which was, as i thought, the max score. I was very surprised when i got the pure 0th on that level.

I did it (actually got a 0th on your level), but guess what...it's just 1 frame difference!

Edit: Just taken 05-4.
Edit #2: Taken 06-1 as well.

I mean, at least you're taking them from a variety of people, I guess.

Thanks to KoopaTroopa/Sorglos' suggestions and of course many hours of work, I took 76-2 and 12-4. Both old scores improved rather than new ones.

22-3 still eludes me oxy, and I fear it will forever.

Naaaaaw! I knew it was a mediocre run, but a hard-fought mediocre run! Too bad i'm going lazy again and i'll probably abandon highscoring for few days :S

To compensate that (kind of), i took 09-0 yesterday.

Edit: tied 80-3.
Edit #2: tied 09-1.

Nice.
See your post count oxy? Under your name? Make your 0th count match that post number. You're one away. And then keep it there :)
So next time you post you have to take 2 0ths :P

I listened to you shomman and decided to take two more 0ths and make this post! :D

Retaken b8-2. Broken 9100 mark on b9-2, using different beginning. :D

[Edit]

I have taken 78-2. It was unexpectedly easy, but Eddy really didn't put much effort in this one. Improved by 150 frames, with small additions. Even with just cleanning the old route I managed to beat Eddy by 80 frames, so I guess this should be easy top5 for anyone. xD
I had few more ideas in both this one and b9-2, but I just don't wanna play anymore. Just small changes which I didn't want to test on actual level (I will probably make a test userlevels).

[Edit]

Just improved my run on 78-2. Only two frames, not very good run overall (better was the previous 380 run), but I collected bottom switches the way i think it is fastest. Probably that's why I managed to improve score in the end... So the demo is there for you to try and improve it! xD

Ooh, i forgot to add that yesterday i took 23-1. I guess everything was rather flawless except for the exit switch part. It could be done muuch better.

Edit: 24-1 also taken, this time from Eddy.

Ha! Finally regained my 0th on 27-2! Unfortunately it's just a tie though... But i don't see any way of improving my run so i'll just leave it as it is.

Edit: Also taken 29-0 from cooper.

Edit #2: I just made 5 people lose their 0ths on a single level! (Check out 32-1).

Edit #3: What. The. Hell?! I chased 6264 on 33-2 for weeks and now i just got it in 5 minutes! Whoa!

Edit #4: 33-4 taken. What a day!

Last damn edit: Actually, the 33-2 0th was my 150th one! Hooray! Now i'm just 15 0ths away from coop!

Well apparently not...: 34-2 taken! 13 0ths!

LAST ONE FOR TODAY, I PROMISE!: 38-1 taken...
