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.

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 [[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]].
