This guide is a MAJOR work in progress. If the routes are too hard / too easy, or there's better beginner routes, please tell me and I will work on it.

Intro:
Hi! Do you want to have good times in CHAIRS? Do you want to be able to brag to all of your friends that you have S-Ranks in all of the levels? Well this sure is one place to get that, because we aren't just going to get you S-Ranks. We're trying to go for as low of a time as possible.
