When i try to get up a wall or something by hanging on it, i kinda give a swing with my body at the same time to give more power

Every time I open a level I haven't played before, I press space and turn around. It's more naturally for me to drive left in the start.

That's so facking annoying when that happens. You do a really cool style the first time you try, and the next 50 times you can't do it.sierra wrote:oh another thing
as soon as i watch a new style for the first time, when i go play it, i get really close or even do it first time, then for the next 4 hours of hoylage i won't make it once
Sometimes when I have played some lev with special startstyle (like volt on sink) and change level I still whane do that startstyle from sink and it takes some starts to find out u arent playing sink anymore...kinda like ur P-thingKopaka wrote:I think I do that turning in start of unknown level too.
Also when I have been using editor for a little, and play a normal level I sometimes press "P" like ten times before I remember I'm not in editor anymore, and it's not just the first time I start a level, I can do it a few times.
Yep, that happens to me too
Also, usually I hoyl at night, so when I die at the end of the level and shout "FAXX0R!!" I remember that people are alseep halfway through shouting and it always comes out as "FAX...xor"

alovolt is so delayed, so sometimes i press it beforehand, and i do it way too soon, so i crash.
and ya know, i have about 950 levs in elma, and i don't know 90% of them. so my habit is to press Esc automaitcally if the background is not sky. so many n00b levels, i should remove them someday.

OMG I can never finish a level when someone watches! Once someone found elma in college and they could finish Long Haul (or they did in 2 minutes or something) so I said "Ok, I'll do it in under 1 inute", I could have said under 50 but I thought Id better cover myself in case it was a crap run. They were all like "nah, nah, cant be done, nah" and I was like, "yeah, just watch". Haha, when I jumped off the thing after the first apple they wer elike "Nahh!! You die now!" and I landed on the thing, "yeeah, I rule"...anyway, I just couldnt finish after that, missed the apples, died at flower, caught by teacher, it just wouldnt happen...dameJuski wrote:I always get better plays better when someone is watching or they will think im a noob

u don't fuck up your runs coz everyone's watching... if you're good hoyla, you never finish the lev 90%... most of our runs are ending with failure, but when everyone's watching, its like you're a noob or something.
once me and my friends made a battle lev and played it in turns (on one comp). now, you can't hoyl it - its only one run per turn. they think you can find the fastest style without pressing Esc...
and other funny thing, not related : i have a n00b friend who's now getting addicted to the game. yesterday he called me : "Michael, you don't believe what a great improvement i've done.. in level 8 (he doesn't know the names yet) i made it from 45 to 31!!" -"gratz" -"whats your time then?" -"24,38" -"wow! send me replay!" *i sent him after a while*.
my friend calls me with great excitement "i did 28!" -"gratz again" -"i can do it better than you, i have a style" -"really? what style?" -"when i jump for the 2 apples, i do it faster" -"how exactly?" -"i do crazy spins, thats much faster!" -"no its not" -"yes it is! i can do even 22, that cuts about 2 seconds!" -"no it doesn't!" -"i'm SURE it is, wait til you see it" -*giving up* "ok ok, bye"

pressing p forever after editoring.
when playing a lev for a long time and then changing to another i repeadetly do the start of the previous level
i dodge tight spots with my head as well
sometimes when there's a tight part i go closer to the screen and am like 20cm from it.

Re: stupid elma habits
I keep turning on and off the map/navigator by pressing V in the middle of the run, most often when I don't even need it. jblaze also has this stupid elma habit, what about you?

holding down arrow key harder to make the bike vrum faster
Re: stupid elma habits
Noticed lately, if i hoyl some lev in the night, i press "1" (f1) in each my startspot after death to check out who poss came to eol. Getting annoing Probably coz in night time is low activity of players.
Same here but to make bike spin fasterholding down arrow key harder to make the bike vrum faster
Re: stupid elma habits
When playing a balle (especially when leading) I check (tab) if the leader changed like every 2 seconds. Can't stop, even though I usually don't even read it and turn it off quickly to concentrate on driving. Quite annoying.

Re: stupid elma habits
When have to do several hard volts in a row or sach, always press mega hard cause it feels like you get better timing. Also when have to brake in the beginning of lev, always press mega hard to make it brake instantly (since cant always brake before pressing enter unless braked in lev during death). There's one particular 0lut lev I've hoyled quite much that starts with impsy start that needs insta-brake. Sometimes have to stop playing cause brake finger hurting, cause you re-play the same 2 seconds in the start over and over and over again()
My keyboard has a clear outline of the arrow keys because I guess I keep shaving off the top layer of the plastic there. It shines much brighter than the rest of the keyboard)Pingywings wrote:My last keyboard got my fingerprint melted in because of this :P, got img somewhere.

Re: stupid elma habits
I'd say my stupid elma habit is sticking to shit styles because I practiced them so much. For example I have 34.32 in Freefall, I still do the noob style because I've become actually pretty solid at it. Isn't best time some high 33? (don't crush my dreams saying it's 30.21)
Re: stupid elma habits
32.xx I think
Edit: Best I could find was 33.7x, but I'm pretty sure wr is 32.xx
