You could have a player clone in the corner with a couple of objects whose sole purpose would be to count how many times the arrow keys were pressed. Downside would be that it would take up at least 5 spaces that could be filled with gems!
Also, it's nice to see this kind of contest again! I'll take a stab at it if I have some time.

No you can't, objects arn't allowed. I had an idea, but I don't think it would work.Quantum P. wrote:You could have a player clone in the corner with a couple of objects whose sole purpose would be to count how many times the arrow keys were pressed.

I know - I was thinking something like what Dr. Dos did, where there was a board with an automatic counting thingamajig in addition to the official board.Shadow Mage wrote:No you can't, objects arn't allowed.

There's a dosbox with savestates and recording for speedruns that's never been used for a speedrun, but every time you press a key it lists it in that status window dosbox opens. You can probably paste that giant buffer into something and see how many lines it is.
