Hey, just wanted to ask what the actual requirement is for getting the Dry Bones Dance Off? I was just playing, got about 13 or so 1ups from jumping on them but the achievement didn't unlock. I'm on a second playthrough with a full stash of P wings...so what I was doing was going to the next screen, getting hit, then grabbing the regular tail from the ? block and returning to get it. Is changing to the next area disabling it or something?

No, but you need to get 10 1ups in a row without touching the ground. I see you already got it though.

Right, I had done it in a row before but the first time it hadn't unlocked. But as you pointed out, I was able to get it to unlock the second time around. Really can't say what the difference was, but I guess it was just an odd hiccup the first go-around.

Someone added leaderboards for this? I really didn't want gameplay to suffer the same way as SMB1.

I tried to run the argument against leaderboards, but to no avail.

I can not stand leaderboards I will stop using these emulators while I am on twitch. It is super annoying.

There's a leaderboard toggle in the RetroAchievements tab. Just toggle it before loading your rom and they won't appear.
