Explanations [quote]You are not allowed to ascend off of MJSG (Must Jump Spam-Geometry).[/quote]
-
"Ascending" covers jumping upwards, which means Daniel is allowed to jump off of MJSG which makes him shoot forwards and/or downwards (horizontal boosts like stairs and gap jump).
-
To expand upon MJSG: You must jump-spam to stay on that piece of geometry. This covers geometry that Daniel cannot stand on at all without falling off. He is however allowed to stand on geometry where he is able to stay put for a little while (but will eventually fall down). A good example is the little corner between the two banisters in Entrance Hall. If walking/running into the corner, Daniel won't fall down immediately, he can jump from that corner, but he can't stay for long.
