Speaking for myself, all of that doesn't really matter, to me. To me. Also, if someone encounters my mother, could you relay the message that I have just committed manslaughter with a firearm?

If your account uploaded the file you can delete it, or update it.

I certainly agree with this. We shouldn't be archiving something unfinished.

As of a month ago, not only did it not work, it didn't compile without modification with rerecording enabled.

Just a thought, the majority of Rubik's Cube positions can be solved in 16-19 moves. This movie uses 20 moves, I only know one cube position that requires 20 moves. >_>

Hello there. Now a few questions come to my head. Does this only work with the special world koopas or with the normal ones as well? Does this work with all Yoshis? Does this work with all Koopas Does this only work with caped Mario? And, most importantly, are there any applications for this glitch?
If it can be reproduced on the Cheese Bridge level it removes the requirement to ditch your Yoshi.

Any update on the non "test" version of this run? And if there is interest, I can make an encoded version of this.

Jumping is the same speed as running. Not sure about the "Ow!" animation, I don't think it affects your speed at all, but I could be mistaken.

oh very nice. :) I liked the boss skip in level 2. Clever! Couple of questions, I was certain that more bosses had a double damage vulnerability, why in specific did you pass on those? And do you think it would be worth the time to manipulate more star drops for the rollout spell in levels 5 and 6? Also, the rollout special looks like it might have sequence break potential, but at 10 stars it's rather expensive. One last thing, sliding is faster than walking ;)

Interesting glitch, anyone know if it will be of use? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7xJNAJys2s&feature=related (at the end of video)

Warp, the times used were for the single cube solutions, not for the average.

It's pretty easy actually with a computer.

eh, I liked it, I thought it was entertaining and a nice change from the existing Rockman run. Perhaps it could use some optimization. But I wasn't overly distracted by its lack. It's very clearly not a speedrun. It feels like a TAS circa 2005 or 2006. Overall, I wouldn't mind publishing it if it were accepted, so I think that's enough for a yes vote. I doubt that it will get published though, because of optimization issues. So I look forward to a second version.

I just confirmed that it's completely lossless. Methodology: Took initially uncompressed png and pngout'd png converted to bmp took md5sums of both observed that both had the same md5sum

I never found much of an issue, just because the game starts with a random state doesn't mean it CAN'T start with the same state as the emulator does.

That being said, recording is not working at all.

How about fastest time with a subgoal being you obtain the hints to the solution of the fireplace puzzle?

You are correct, I apologize for the slip, it's been a long day.

Slowking, an exception is an exception, an exception is not a rule. That's why it's not up for debate. And the rules have always been "what the admins want that moment, so shut the fuck up." This isn't a democracy, though sometimes the admins ask us for input or ask for a vote. Although I could see places where this run could be improved, it's played far better than the currently published run. I greatly look forward to Mr. Grunt blowing it out of the water, but until then I see no real reason not to publish it. Other than drama. And no one likes drama.

It's not like the story would make any sense if the text were in english. :P
