Unexpectedly, rockdet's LP assisted in two breakthroughs in the mainstream Chip's Challenge scene. [[Block Buster II]] was rated at a full 5/5 for difficulty until Rock's frustration (it was the first time - and only the second so far <!---Block N Roll---> - a full video's worth of footage did not pass a single level) drove him to discover an easier - and not much slower - path through the upper section, which led to the level's difficulty being re-evaluated as 3/5. Similarly, watching Rock's runs through [[Melinda]]'s warehouses have filled a hole in the expert CC scene: how one advances in ability from [[exit]]-seeker to bold-seeker, and how to teach such techniques. | Unexpectedly, rockdet's LP assisted in two breakthroughs in the mainstream Chip's Challenge scene.

Much more famous is the event which drew much of the attention to rockdet not coming from Andrew Bennett. While watching Rock play through [[Block N Roll]], Andrew discovered that one of his attempted paths through the northwest room was part of the path that [[J.B. Lewis]] and [[David Stolp]] took to pass the room quicker than anyone else; the existence of such a route, but not the content of it, was revealed in an | Much more famous is the event which drew much of the attention to rockdet not coming from Andrew Bennett.

Lewis]] and [[David Stolp]] took to pass the room quicker than anyone else; the existence of such a route, but not the content of it, was revealed in an April Fools' Day 2010 hoax. Quickly afterwards, Andrew improved on his 439 by one second and filled in key holes in the [[ChipWiki]] channel and [[public TWS]]. | ||
The last contribution has been a debate topic, it happened on [[The Search for the Exit]]. In his CCLP2 LP, Rock tried the bold exit, ending in the trap. Having a discussion on that video with Andrew Bennett, the idea came to try removing that trap with the teeth, and Andrew improved the bold. | The last contribution has been a debate topic, it happened on [[The Search for the Exit]].
