The pits in Sonic aren't bottomless. You fucking bounce off something when you fall into one.

That's my theory too, but where does he fall after that?

You just keep falling forever. And there is no bottom. I think that qualifies them as "bottomless."

I like Del's explanation better.

I didn't read it in a Japanese manual so I don't believe it.

But Del's explanation isn't the case. That is what happnes when you fall off screen, not when you fall down a recycling pit.

Which is why you don't wanna fall into there.

WE MUST BE COMPLETELY TECHNICALLY ACCURATE.

SONIC. SERIOUS BIZNIS.

If the damn thing is bottomless you wouldn't freaking bounce. So you must be wrong. And since Del's explanation is the only other option, it's right. That's just the way these things go.

In case anybody hasn't picked up on it yet, one group is talking about pits, the other is talking about levels that wrap around vertically. This moment of the obvious has been brought to you by the letter bong.

I cannot think of any game that wraps around vertically.

Ice Cap wraps around vertically in Act 1. Metropolis wraps around vertically in Act 2.

You dumb ass. You don't bounce you keep falling until you land on that little ice piece and break through the wall, or in the case of Metropolis you keep falling until you land on that platform and pass the Eggman sign.

You dumbass learn to quote properly. And I wasn't referring to the two small parts of two levels in Sonic history that wrap around vertically. I was referrng to when you fall into a the 'bottomless pits' and a dead Sonic bounces up on the screen and then falls off.

Why the hell are we still talking about this anyway?

There is one in Tidal Tempest Zone 3, too you dildo.

A vertical level wrap-around also occurs in Act 3 of the Labyrinth Zone in Sonic 1.

See, after Light Speed asked 'Since when are there bottomless pits anywhere,' Chris and j-man named levels with vertical wrap arounds but about 3 other people didn't pick up on it and thought that they were talking about death pits and nobody's paying attention to me anyway. I'll stop now.

Sandopolis Act 2 also wraps around vertically.

It's an unwritten law of the internet that nobody pays attention to what new members have to say until they become frequent posters. Admittedly though, The GHZ is generally quite fair on the newbies (unless their half-heartedly threatening to ban you).

Yes, we are fair to n00bs, so long as they're passably intelligent. It pleases me to see that we've gotten a few good new members in the last couple weeks.
