'''Random Cog Pedro Spot''', or '''RCPS''' for short, is the theory that it is possible to gain enough speed from the [[Tick Tock Clock]] Pedro Spot on the random setting to jump straight to the SotT star, which would have saved an A press at the time. | '''Random Cog Pedro Spot''', or '''RCPS''' for short, is the theory that it is possible to gain enough speed from the [[Tick Tock Clock]] Pedro Spot on the random setting to jump straight to the SotT star, which would have saved an A press at the time. | ||

In Tick Tock Clock, there is a [[Pedro Spot]] in between two of the cogs. Theoretically, if RNG was consistent enough to let Mario stay inside the Pedro Spot for about 800 frames, Mario could gain enough positive horizontal speed that, after A is pressed, would be enough to reach the [[Stomp on the Thwomp]] star. This would have been enough to collect Stomp on the Thwomp in 1 A press, which would have reduced the past count for [[A Button Challenge|ABC]]. The star in question is now already done without pressing A, so this strategy is redundant. | In Tick Tock Clock, there is a [[Pedro Spot]] in between two of the cogs.
