When I got to the multiplayer segment I laughed maniacally, like I know that's EXACTLY what happens, but because that happens its SO much FUN, but you gotta have your friends there so you can see their pissed off faces as you throw them into a pit.

heh, I was playing with my wife, mom, and dad, and my mom is the worst out of the 3. We got to this section (in world 1) with spinning blocks so I told my mom I'd carry her accross. Half way through I saw one of the big gold coins out of reach down in a pit so I threw her at it, picked up the coin and continued on my way. I told her it was for the greater good

Just what a gamer would do when s/he sees a coin. Willing to throw his/her mom at it...
