  1. Hey everyone. In hopes to get more people interested in the search for Blimp Ticket Skip, I've decided I'd like to issue a bounty that will be rewarded to the first person who can successfully perform Blimp Ticket Skip and either send me a Dolphin TAS Movie file (.dtm) that I am able to play back correctly, or supply sufficient video proof that can be recreated by myself or others in the community. To explain what I deem as a fair execution of this glitch with the intention to save time, I want to lay out some rules.
  2.  
  3. -I define Blimp Ticket Skip as either bypassing the invisible wall in front of the blimp pipe or obtaining the Blimp Ticket in either a Chapter 2 state before the intermission, or a Chapter 3 state or later. This glitch must be performed with either of those criteria met.
  4.  
  5. -The Blimp Ticket Skip method you find must be faster than completing the game without using it. (Had to add this after Tall found a very slow BTS method with the new Super Jump glitch)
  6.  
  7. -You must perform this on the Japanese version of the game.
  8.  
  9. -You may use Teleporter Room Early or other glitches to set your sequence position to or past a Chapter 3 state.
  10.  
  11. -You may only have Goombella, Koops, and Flurrie in your party.
  12.  
  13. -You may only have the Plane and Paper Mode abilities.
  14.  
  15. -You may only have the normal or Super Boots. You may not have the Ultra Boots.
  16.  
  17. -You may have the regular or Ultra Hammer. You may not have the Super Hammer.
  18.  
  19. -You may not use any cheat codes (obviously).
  20.  
  21. -Circumventing the need for a Blimp Ticket Skip by any means, such as finding a way to perform Palace Skip without Yoshi, DOES count, and would actually save more time.
  22.  
  23. With that said, upon successfully performing Blimp Ticket Skip, I will personally reward $200 USD.
  24.  
  25. Some hints:
  26. -Don Pianta doesn't do anything if you talk to him in a Chapter 2 or earlier state, or a state in or post-Chapter 3.
  27. -Paper Mode is probably the most useful tool we have to work with.
  28. -You can get out of bounds onto the train tracks by jumping at an upright angle from the platform at the top of the staircase.
  29. -If I had to guess, Flurrie won't be of any help, and I doubt Koops will be either.
