This is perfect for the Vault. It's a famously bad game, and has good technical quality despite being boring. Wouldn't taking damage in the last level be faster though, or is there no invincibility time? If that could be checked out and the glitches Warp noted earlier could be factored in, it would help this get published.

While I wanted to have the first GC publication, I have to say congrats.
Same here. Didn't want to discourage a new TASer either though, and congratulations on getting the first published GC TAS, gamerfreak5665!

It's impressive that this was done by a bot, but the result isn't very impressive. From a TAS standpoint, anyone could have done this. Plus, it's not even a game, as MKRF said, just a test ROM. I don't think this should be published, but it's a good movie for Gruefood Delight, since I was just thinking about coming back to watch this after a few months.

I have to give this a No for entertainment, but there's no reason it shouldn't be dumped published in the Vault.

Thanks for explaining why you waited to submit. I'm glad you decided to submit this, though, and explained all the improvements in your submission text (since you didn't in your video description). Anyway, I've been waiting a long time to vote Yes on this, so YES vote!

Stopping after one loop seems perfectly fine to me. Is there a rule for games that require you to play the game twice to complete it though (like NES Ghosts 'n' Goblins)?

Yes, accept this! Under the new rules, there is no reason not to!

This is a good, optimal run of a bad game. It's a world record, and it should be published.

I would vote Yes for was0x's improved run if it gets unGrued.

Also, today I moved every existing publication with a rating under 6.0 to the vault.
This isn't about the content of the movie itself, but the GBC SpongeBob run is at exactly 6.0, not under, though it somehow ended up in the Vault. Was that a mistake?

Why not publish it? Desert Bus is somewhat popular. This should help draw people to the site. Yes vote for publication (I suppose the judge decides where it goes). The only question is how anyone would ever encode this, especially in an acceptable quality and fitting within video site time and file size limits.

Yes, I think this deserves publication in the Vault. It's short and entertaining. I love the new site system!

Why was this submission brought back? Wasn't it just made to spread ponies, leading to all MLP discussion being confined to that one thread?

That looks great, GMan! I read through the whole post and understood a good part of the math. Using confidence intervals to calculate ratings, taking number of ratings into account, it all sounds like a solid new rating system. If I could Yes vote it, I would.

ILs are "individual levels", for "first track" runs of racing games and the like.

This sounds like a wonderful reform! Definitely a Yes vote. Can't wait for the changes or the massive unGrueing. So if any% is defined as "fastest possible completion" and there are only any% and 100% categories, will a "glitched" run become the new any% run?

Are you saying the run lost sync at that frame? Just continue recording from the frame it desynced on so you can finish your verification movie without having to restart.

Very fast and entertaining run. The floor glitches were interesting too. And I appreciate the temporary encode. Yes vote. I noticed in your signature that you're going to be working on Super Princess Peach next. Can't wait to see that!

Hm, let's apply E.T. Yes voters' logic: "So short it's entertaining. Sure it's a bad game, but it's also infamous, and will draw so many people to the site. Bad game does not equal bad game choice. Yes vote for the reasons provided." Now let's see how this one's judged, since it's basically the same situation as the E.T. run.

Shouldn't it be noted in the publication text that this is the first Atari publication? That's kind of a milestone, isn't it?

So which is more accurate, then? FCEUX or BizHawk? BizHawk should sync this game just as well, if not better.

What about having Kirby sit on Meta Knight's head? That could work in a TAS at least, even if it would be difficult to do a 2-player speedrun.
