I think we need a better way to describe the different rivets. Use 1-4 for the levels where rivets are and L , R for left or right side.

1L,1R,2L,2R,etc.

so

Star Pattern: 1L, 3L, 4L, bottom hammer , 2L, 2R

Weave Pattern: 1L, 2L, 3L, 4L, top hammer

The Trudeaux/Trudeiauoeaux Pattern: 1R, 1L, 3L, 4L, bottom hammer , 2L, 2R

The Staal or abanded star: 1L, 3L, 4L, top hammer

The Strategy/Strat (no hammer) :  Run right, 3R, 4R  or Run right, 4R, 3R

The Wolfepath (no hammer) : 3L, 3R, 4R    ;D

unnamed (dean and jeff ) (no hammer) : 1L, 3R, 4R
DK (Arcade) 1,129,700
DK No-hammer (Arcade) 768800 Killscreen
DK No-hammer (mame japan set)  524600 level 21-4

A couple of new ones (1 term, 1 acronym):

The Mario Shuffle

Coined by Tim Sczerby.  The double backjump performed by Mario when the player attempts a 2x100 barrel jump on the 6th girder.

TIME

Tears in my eyes.  No further explanation necessary.

Nice. I'll add "TIME" to the Staal Terms thread, though.

EDIT: While we're add it, anyone else have other terms to add here or in the Staalisms thread? I's been a while since I updated either of those, and I'm sure they're both missing out on some new terms.

Finger of Cheating - a new term that is being bandied around at TG, no idea why

Murderbarrel - I read this term somewhere on DKF, I can only imagine it refers to those fast heat-seeking wild barrels.  The name is very apt, for me at least
