I recently tried ghostrunning again. I haven't done so since 99.9, so this was my first successful ghostrun with Tunnel Man.

So is a late Hedjet, an early Udjat Eye, and an early Jetpack.

How much harder / how much less gold would a Spelunky-man ghost run game be? You'd either need some super lucky mattocks or some fast Kali bombs... Btw, awesome job in general, I had seen a 2M+ ss before, but it wasn't this good  Keep the bar high, Eguee! ~Mang

Maybe a 100,000 gold difference, I guess.

Nice score.
It occurred to me that "ghostrunning" is an awesome technique that until now didn't have an entry on the Spelunky Wiki, so I just rectified that. Who first coined the term?

I didn't really use any term to describe the "technique"* until Delgato came up with "ghostrunning".
*It's not really a technique, just a fortunate series of circumstances and having the balls and the skill to outrun the ghost.

I tried to sell my soul to the shopkeeper, but I accidentally dropped it on him and he blasted me at point blank range with his shotgun.
