If he switched modes (normal->super), then the recording is definitely illegal. Super allows you access to the bonus rooms at levels 20, 30, 40, and 50 REGARDLESS of whether you die or not. In normal mode, one death means that you cannot enter ANY bonus rooms. To obtain an extremely high score you must therefore complete AT LEAST the first 50 levels on your first life.(posted 9592 days ago)If there are any problems/inconsistencies with what I am saying, please check out www.bubandbob.com. That site should answer all questions.
And Stig, please tone down your posts. We don't need any more players threatening to leave as it is.
