I've checked the long thread about the ST Advanced combos and I decided to 
explain some of the hard but cool tactics to combo supers or special after 
multi-hits. 

ex combo: Ryu / Ken and others 

crouching short x 2(or more), Dragon punch ... 

Now if you use the normal cancelling method you'll never be able to cancel the 
2nd short. But you can LINK the DP !! and the only way to link it is by 
executing it by doing the DP motion + (short+any punch). I believe this is some 
sort of left over from the old SF2 short+fierce trick, if you check the combo 
frame by frame you'll notice that Ryu/Ken will cancel the last frames of the 
short and not the usual cancel/2n1 frames. 

This tactic also works with some super combos for example we all remember the 
babble about how japanese players used to do crossups with Ryu into 2 shorts 
then super combo and I think this is what they're doing linking the super by 
using the short+punch trick. I managed to do this twice with Ryu and I can do it 
very easily with Ken (because his super is instant hitting and has a shorter 
motion), weirdly thou Ken can also link after his c.forward using this trick ! 

Some flashy combos using this trick : (Ken) 
Cross-up forward, c.shortx2, Shoryuken/Shoryureppa 
Cross-up forward, S.Short !, Fierce shoryken/Shoryureppa 
(crouching Zangief) Cross-up Roundhouse, C.shortx4-5, DP/SC 

I hope this is useful for you guys and not a waste of your time
