Pyramid Training:

The pyramid is a new method of training that I'm testing. Studies have shown that randomness in practice is good for muscle memory retention, so this combines the rigidity of the planet order with a quasi-random feeling to it. The way the pyramid strat works is, I choose a starting planet. For most cases, it'll be Command Center. I complete CC and go to the next "level" of the pyramid, which is the planet right before it, sandwiched in between runs of CC. So, that would be CC -> Koros -> CC. And the pattern continues in that fashion. Visually, it looks like this:

						CC
					CC    	Koros	CC
				CC	Koros	Quark's	Koros	CC
			CC	Koros	Quark's	Crash	Quark's Koros	CC


Which, expanded to many levels, looks like a pyramid! I can choose to do this to as many factors as possible. Obviously, the time it takes to complete each level increases drastically with each additional level, but I can cut it off whenever I want. I might do "Nuzlocke pyramid" at some point in the future, which would involve starting over every time I died and going to a certain level, but that would take some serious dedicated practice time, which also means not doing runs... So we'll see.

Most importantly, this gets me doing A LOT of CC practice. ;)
