Here's a tiny improvement over my last time.

Here is a video of the run in case anyone wishes to study my technique ;). There is room for improvement as I made a few mistakes.

There are many shortcuts, but i found a way of reducing 1 common mistake, wich should prove usefull.

EDIT: did 1:31 but the game added 10 seconds for no reason (making 1:41), still, i believe i can beat the time.
EDIT: wtf, did 1:30 and the game showed 1:40, why the extra 10 seconds?
EDIT: there goes my strategy, i save up 1 second and the game adds 10

Did 1:33, will post picture if i can't do better

That's weird. I've never had that happen before. You must have run into some type of glitch.

Cool cool. That'll move you up one spot.

Yeah, this is happening to me too. I'll finish and it adds 10 seconds to the time :)
I winder what we are doing to get this penalty?

odd, Kireek that's never happened on the Dreamcast version for me and I've been playing it since release day!! Are you sure your not using a burnt disc or an emulator? not that it matters for the comp

Some other players do get it, i have seen videos and posts in forums about it, the game adds 10 seconds at the end.
My SA is a burned disk.

fair enough, I've never heard of that one. Hopefully I'll be videoing my results from now on, I'm still having issues with my video capture but it works (I just need to sort compression out) looking forward to trying this one again soon, I tried briefly on Saturday but couldn't get below 1.40 again lol
