I lost a life on the third boss. Then I got an extra life on the fourth stage so I played for a bit after losing my second life. I wasn't sure if there was a strict two lives limit or if you could keep going until your last life if you happened to get an extra life. To play it safe I stopped and took a picture. I wasn't making much progress anyway because the fourth stage is tough.

Likely for all until verified.  It's nothing personal  obviously.  I'll check it and update it in the table for all submitted entries.

Sorry everyone, I'll change this back as soon as I get home from work. What sucks is that I had an update ready around 1030 central time but the picture was absolute trash. TMNT - Stage 8 - Boss Stage 7

^^^ dont forget to bold bigger font the game title and score/progression

Like for yours it would be tmnt- stage 4 boss

Makes it easier for brock to go through the thread and find scores.

Also if you improve your score edit tge same post. Keeps it neat and clean.

I didn't have too much trouble with vanilla lake. I spent two straight nights trying to beat quest4nes' time on bowser castle 1 though.

Obviously I didn't watch you play, so you may be doing this. But when you're at the yellow jump pad things, hit L or R instead of it jumping you. Should save you a few seconds

Thanks for the tip. I tried going back and improving my time but my and that track just don't get along. I was able to shave some seconds off of Ghost Valley 2 though.
