Basically, write something you did in SA1/DX or SA2(B) that was purely because of luck.

I beat Security Hall on my second try because the last hint was quite obviously pointing towards an area I was familiar with (saw it on my first try)

Finishing Mission 4 of Crazy Gadget, in which you must finish Crazy Gadget in under 5 minutes. At the last puzzle, with those colored blocks, I got unfamiliar with the other gravity controls, just on the end of the purple block. I almost ran out of time, but I made it.

My time? 4:59:82

I got an A on security hall (I still don't know why). Unfortunately I lost my save (do to the power going out during a saving period of my chao garden) and only have a D on it now

Finding and getting the air necklace was purely out of luck for me. Getting 400+ rings on Emerald Coast was also out of luck. (Yay, random ring boxes!)

My first A on the PC version of SA2 was in Security Hall. The only reason I got the A is because I fell down on top of a Chaos Emerald I wasn't even looking for in the first 30 seconds or so.

Any A/S rank on a mission that has to do with a time limit. Even the slightest error can make that goal unobtainable and force you to restart the stage.

Everything.

Must.

Happen.

Perfectly.
Darn kids and their boost mode. In my day we had Spin Dash for speed AND WE LIKED IT.
