Any tips on getting low scorer?

[TheCoolestBrobieBoy∞]

I know there's probably a discussion out there saying some, but i'm too lazy to look. Anyway, I have every achievement except for two, low scorer, and The Full Spelunky. I didn't actually get them legit but I'm aiming to get the full spelunky anyway, and I just cannot do low scorer. It's like impossible to not touch gold! Overall, I need some tips, and I can't find any anywhere else so you're welcome to tell me some, I'll try 'em even if they don't sound great.

Whip Gold away. Either you reset till Jetpack or don't steal and only kill tusk guard in Neo babylon for Shotgun to kill tiamat. Don't use bombs unless needed. I'd go Volcano into Tidepool but you can do Jungle too. Ingnore Blackmarket/Vlads Castle

Here’s some tips specifically for avoiding gold that I learned on my attempts:

- Always be aware that blocks broken by bombs or enemies like ufos can have gems hidden in them (if you don’t have udjat eye or spectacles to make them visible).

- In tide pool, whip or jump over any decorative coral in the foreground. They can hide small pieces of gold.

- Both of the above apply to Tiamat too. It’s recommended that you swim under the arena if you want to get to the other side to avoid any chance of walking into hidden gold.

- Totem traps or spike traps can launch nearby gold a few blocks’ distance when they activate.

- Whip the pet once before picking it up to check for gold hidden behind it.

- Just stay away from leprechauns

- Also stay away from cavemen carrying gold or pots. They will find some way to lob them into your cranium.

- If you kill quillback, whip the bomb bag and turkey he drops to make sure there’s nothing hiding behind those too, since he causes a lot of gold to drop after rolling through the walls.

- Wait at the start of ice caves for a bit for all the explosions to go off, so you don’t have to deal with gold flying around and dropping down the stage.
