Ahh, an old family favorite.
This is from back in 2005, I believe (too darn lazy to dig up the old thread), and was originally started by tktktk.
The idea is simple: Play the levels from any given column of the game, and see how many of them you can get through without dying. We're not at all concerned with speed, or gold, or any of that, as long as you beat the levels.
Post in this thread what column you played, and how far through it you got before dying.
Here's the big thing: This goes on the honor system. I trust you guys; there's absolutely no reason to lie, because really, where's the pride in being first place in this? There are no rewards, just a spot of light competition.
Something we didn't have in the original OLC is NReality, so now, there are twice as many columns to compete for the titles of.
- All previous high scores have been wiped. -
- Including crappitrash's 43-2 on column 0. -
To get the whole thing started off, I went through and tried once on each column, and my scores are up, just so it doesn't look so empty. I expect these to be quickly thrashed.

81-4

gawd I hate that friggin level!

Episod 5-1 Died

lol! Got trapped on 3-1 O_o

ok 5-4

forgot the route on pac-ninja, luckily I didn't get trapped. Also close call on 'factory' whichever that level is.

I made it to 08-2 without dying, and died. :angry:

05-3 05-4 8-1
13-3 15-2
22-1
32-3
44-3 46-1
55-3
63-3 < I'm cursed with dying all on 3's. 6/7 were on 3.
75-4
81-4
97-3 < best yet. and look, it's on a 3.

Wow, playing these really brought back old memories, even back to when I could wall jump, and when I thought beating one level with more than two enemies was an accomplishment.

EDITS !
I updated a few scores.
And I think Riobe has the wrong concept and is doing it episodically versus by columns.

We should do overclock mode, even if it's just the first column.

column 0 : 3-3

I want to be too fast, and i died stupidly.

I didn't think it's was so hard.

Awww, my old records don't carry over? FINE. I'll give it a shot tonight.

Colum 1 - Episode 14-0

column 0 - episode 0,level 1

i am seriously amazing

Haha Keep On At i NotSteve .. Anyways ... Colum 1 - Episode 14-1 just a bit better

/me is on par with Jiggerjaw in column 00.

I managed to get to 132-0.

It's damn FRUSTRATING.

6-2 on is my best at the moment.

Edit: And 23-0 at column 2.

Episode 170-2, died on 170-3. Yeah it sucks, but Im still second, so meh :P. Great idea, Ill add some more subs to columns later.

Is this still an ongoing contest?
column 0: 04-1
column 1: 12-2
column 2: 22-3
column 3: 32-0
column 4: 40-2 (Ran out of time...)
column 5: 51-3

It is so frustrating... press ONE key incorrectly and all your progress is lost. (That's why I'm not a mapmaker yet.)

This is a really neat idea and should get more attention. I may add some tomorrow, although this may kinda have died.
