The Four And A Half Year Challenge: BEATING BLINK

@ GPD, you can tell if a record is legit by watching their video. If there is any indecision (moves left two columns, changes mind, moves right) there is an exceedingly high chance it is fake. At that high of a speed you need to know where every piece goes before you even control it.

On a more relevant note, great job on the improvement! 50 seconds is already quite impressive. If you want, try improving your 5p sprint rank. It gave me the extra motivation i needed to break the 50 barrier.

BEAT MY RECORD: 50.18!!!!!!!!!!! down .10 seconds!

my lesser goal is to hit the forties by x-mas!

TTC uses a much better algorithm to detect fakes than simply watching it.

I think it also uses timestamping to check speedhax.
(e.g. you could slow down the game to say 1%. Then in gameplay you would never make stacking errors etc, and can tap faster).

Holy Crap! 2000 HITS!!!!!!!!! i REALLY didn't think it'd get this big (the graph was a nice touch, even if it WAS a little disparaging) which is a great segway into my next update:
I have no new records!!!!! the challenge is getting harder faster than I am! if i beat my time every other week i'll be happy.

FORTIES BY CHRISTMAS! MAYBE!

Add the graph to the first post, that would be a nice touch

I think you should start maintaining a graph of your best sprint time vs time so we can see how steadily you're improving.

Do you think that I can do it?
