I had beaten JXQ's escape in January. (With 49.03, but remember Saturn had 48.99 even before that.) And it's possible to beat JXQ's "up to Ridley" part of Ceres station by at least 6 frames. Ceres station is lots of fun.

Thanks to the gang on IRC for finally helping me figure out what uncultivated means :)

Does anyone know details about glitching through Zebetites? I've seen it done two different ways - Teri's run takes 10 damage from a fireball, while Jecy's 100% run takes 0 damage from a frozen fireball (or at least it appears that way). I did some testing a few days ago, and I can't even get the trick to work, let alone figure out which is faster and how much energy to stockpile in my reserve tanks. I should watch some of the older Super Metroid runs here. If anyone has info for me, it'd be much appreciated.
Glitching through the Zebetite with the ice beam: First off, screw attack must be de-equipped. Freeze the bottom Rinka before it moves. Now you need some invincibility time. You can spin jump onto the Rinka and get hurt for 0 damage, so it's free invincibility time. After you're invincible, you need to spin jump onto the Rinka again. Then just jump and hold left. For some reason, low spin jumps seem to work best. The reason this works: The collision detection detects the frozen Rinka before it bothers to detect the wall, so Samus is placed on top of the Rinka, slightly inside the wall and Zebetite. Normally, the Zebetite will hurt Samus and push her away, because Samus is now in the Zebetite's hitbox. This is why you need to be invincible. Once you're inside the Zebetite, the game no longer blocks Samus from moving around inside of it, so you're able to simply jump right through it before the invincibility runs out. Screw attack must be de-equipped, because you lose your invincibility time when you use the Screw attack.
