Who doesn't like to see a bunch of Japanese girls drilling in mech suits? XD
I, for one, have seen far too much of vica versa.* Turnabout's fair play.

It MIGHT be possible to have the 2 movies desync (I.E. with the two movies in different places) but it would be a nightmare to coordinate. Does SMB2 have any large between-level animations not in DDP?

You can't run in DDP though. That would probably ruin a lot of the shortcuts that you might think of.
Looks to me like it will immediately desync.

I don't have a doppleganger to my knowledge. Every OmnipotentEntity on google is me.
There was this one Geocities Site once that shared my name, but it went away around 2003.

Ahem... CNNN?
Fake, but slightly humorous, nonetheless.

One of your suggestions was this:

I see. I should have added the sentence "of course, this looks bad so put the comment on the next/previous line instead" to it. I didn't think anyone would interpret it that I'm recommending a narrow column like that, considering that I also showed the better example right below it. My bad.
Actually, I believe the madness behind the method for that piece of code was, many people who code do so on a terminal screen that is 24x80. He formatted it that way so that he didn't violate the 80 column rule.

If you leave the whole base defenseless, be prepared to lose the level.
Near the end of the thirty minutes, all of the Zerg Forces will attack in one final strike.
I think in the PC version even if you beat all of the current forces, there were still about a hundred of them waiting to attack and lay waste to your base.
It's been a while since I played though.
I personally find it funny to watch the whole horde of them attacking a bunch of bunkers only to get mowed down by the Marines hiding in them, hehe. :3
Well. I don't have anything else to add really. ;3
If you can take out the base in about 10 minutes, just use the other 20 to build up, and then find the spawning point for the last wave and camp it Maybe even build walls around it. "Like shooting fish in a barrel."

That script doesn't verify whether or not a post_id has a corresponding entry in post_text. phpBB will silently fail to display that post_id if that is so.

I can't imagine a situation where I'd watch a pure speed TAS for story. Especially Chrono Trigger, this route cuts out so much of the story that it's pointless.
For the 100%, it'd probably be better to go in English because the point is to showoff the story. In the any% you're skipping over so much that you might as well use the Japanese version, especially if the text scrolls faster.

Still doesn't seem to be fixed. phpbb still thinks that there's one more reply than there actually is, so between the time when $replies % 20 == 0 and $replies % 20 == 1 the last page returns "There are no posts in this topic."
You can test this behavior by pointing your browser to http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=267&start=<The Number Of Replies to the Thread>
On most topics this will return the very last reply of the thread and nothing else. On Majora's Mask's thread it returns an empty thread because phpBB thinks there's one more reply than there actually is.
The reason I think your script failed to fix it is because the way phpBB handles the number of posts in a thread is funky. phpBB does not count the first post as a reply to the thread (presumptively because it's technically not a reply to anything.)
So topic_replies holds $total_number_of_posts_in_thread - 1
Anyway, the SQL command that will fix Majora's Mask is again,
UPDATE `phpbb_topics` SET `topic_replies` = `topic_replies` - 1 WHERE `topic_id` = 267 LIMIT 1;

As for topic title, that was AngerFist's decision to type it like that.
He can, however, edit his post, and the topic title will change. So bug him :)
As for the post count, I don't see an error there. But such an error was recently fixed anyway.
Thirdly, I hate those extravagant quotes and I'm not using <tt>phpbb_</tt> prefix in the table names anyway :)
(And fourthly, I don't think LIMIT works with UPDATEs.)
I annoyed you about it on chat the same day I posted this, and you fixed it then. I think. We'll see what happens when a new page is spawned.

New glitch: http://dehacked.2y.net/microstorage.php/info/4180/Stairs.smv
Explanation: Normally when you go up the stairs when you walk across a triggering area the game starts a mini cutscene and you lose control of Link for a while as he slowly makes his way up the stairs. (at a rate of 1,1,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,1,1,0,1,0 pixels/frame)
However, if you hold < v > while passing over the triggering area you move at 1,1,1,1,1 pixels/frame, and at 1,2,1,2,1,2 when you're past it as still walking up the stairs. It saves a good 25 frames or so per stairwell.
