I searched everything I could find on my C: but I am sure Raif and I discussed this and the issue it is impossible to AGD with this route using only 1 jump when returning back right. (See my Raif-MBD tied Demo above) It looks like it should be possible, but I could not make it happen and I am very skeptical that it can. I will try to explain the best that I can below.
I will work backwards through the run here. The green and red gold are mutually exclusive unless you jump from high enough up the 8-tile when going to the right. In order to be high enough up the tile you have to jump with enough speed or high enough off the previous 8-tile. The "speed" and "height" are also mutually exclusive and cause the blue and purple golds to be exclusive when getting the proper landing on the right platform such that you can collect the Green and Red in one jump. Now you may ask "why not collect the green on the way to the left?" Well that causes the orange and black gold to be mutually exclusive. And now hopefully you see my point, but are still willing to prove me wrong because I am the first to say that "it is possible to collect all of the gold in one jump" but here I do not think it is possible.
So just to be totally clear this isn't an issue of the route being slower; clearly it is faster or I would not have been able to tie Raif's MBD with an extra jump and sloppy exit switch. It is an issue of being able to AGD without adding and extra jump and that is the key here. If someone can prove that it is possible than great I am just trying to say that I couldn't make it happen and that has given me substantiated doubts. But please prove me wrong I always want to see a faster route.
