I just got lucky. Two Emeralds showed up in Members Lounge, but fortunately they were on pages 9 and 11 in short topics. I got my highest score, but only got a B rank. Spoiler Previously I got an A rank for a score of 25,000 and a time of 03:31. Is it cause I navigated away from Retro? I had to reload the game since going back to the forum index netted be a blank white screen. Naturally, I feel a grave injustice has been served and you've ruined my entire evening. This is the worst thing ever. (no seriously this is fucking brilliant and totally stopping me from doing all my work)
This is officially more fun than the emerald hunting in SA1/2. I was going to go out tonight, but I might just play this all night.
It's too bad there's no way to track your times. My fourth try, if I recall correctly, was below two minutes, in spite of two of them being in General Discussion. I'd love to know for sure though; I didn't write it down.
Wow, that was amazing! Now I've get to get better emblems! (I hope this sticks around as a hidden easter egg or something...)
Luck based as hell regarding times but its certainly fun. Once I realized it goes green on the correct page it made it way easier. I also like how the music just sort of gets strange when you hit Members Lounge, its like Blonic Retro all over again.
Not fun: 3 "F" ranks in a row because an emerald didn't show up no matter what I did... and the radar was as red as it gets.
Your browser doesn't support Web Audio. I had this happen earlier because I was using Firefox 24 ESR for various reasons. Upgrading to Firefox 33 fixed it.
This is really quite hard to be honest. If I may have a suggestions. Limit the location to the first 20 pages. That way I wouldn't have to check every 82 pages of the Members Lounge. Other than that, this is extremely fun. Thank you very much for this wonderful recreation. Makes me want to replay Sonic Adventure for the 369th time.
Really well done, super slick and SA2 accurate. only thing I hate about it is actually my hatred for treasure hunting. Spent about 10 minutes trying to find emeralds before reaching the "fuck it" stage lol Other than that, very cool XD
