Doesn't seem silly to me. Those 2 pages look good too. And I don't understand the second question.

You better ask Dolphin developers about what it means and if it can be fixed, we don't have a lot of them hanging around here.
As for the full completion category, we do take it seriously. There's no problem with including more of things to complete if they match our rules linked above, and it doesn't need to match the RTA category, unless it happens to fit the TAS rules nicely.

Since the new version will be not only more complete, but also more optimal now, it would be a good idea to cancel this one and then just submit the proper run separately.

As for making a more complete run, I am definitely interested. I have already begun working on this and hope to complete it soon. Thanks again!
Is it possible to give a rough estimate when it might be finished? Like, will this movie have some time to shine, or you're already almost done? It wouldn't make much sense to publish a movie just to be instantly obsoleted by a more complete version.

Yes.

2. Subpages contains usernames... ? I guess this was something an old tradition. Or maybe because of SEO? Do we need that extra subpage just to mention the user and the event at once in the link?
They are hosted at tasvideos, so it makes sense to break them up like this. If those were just external links, we wouldn't need to keep names subpages. Doesn't seem to harm this way anyway.

3. Should I ask someone to move the current page to MassMedia (to keep stats)? Or just create it and link it from Media? (this way I could only put only the relevant text (subpages) to the main MassMedia page)
Done. Though format the links for Other TASers the same way others are formatted. Also, PangaeaPanga has published movies. Haven't checked the others.

If a item appears if you just wait, and then you can quickly complete the game after getting it, it doesn't looks like getting it is a sensible speedrun goal. As for unlocking, are there no codes of any kind? Can they at least be unlocked for a separate, save anchored movie? If additional levels are unlocked using codes, we allow them in Vault. If it's only possible via save carryover, it has to be Moons.

Please elaborate. You can set the time when starting a movie, I guess that doesn't help? Also if you just have to wait for 2 hours no matter what, how is that even a speedrun? What game? What goal?

I don't think there's such a thing as "fceux frontend" at all, it's just a HUGE pile of all sorts of spaghettis of infinite length that were being intermixed by a ton of people for a ton of years. It's what bizhawk would look like if it was 60 years old.

Haha, yeah baby! It should have happened sooner or later. 10 years ago writing a core in C# maybe looked like a grownup approach, but over the years it's been getting more and more accurate, slower and slower, and at this point it's obvious that if we can't emulate 6502 or Z80 based systems at full speed, we're doing something wrong. It also means there's no way younger consoles will ever run at usable speeds if the same approach is taken.
Though I don't think anyone will be using it for further development, as opposed to just running movies on it. There are tons of NES emulators now, and it's kinda getting old. Even bizarre accuracy isn't that novel anymore. So I don't know if this is eventually adopted by hawk again, but this undertaking is obviously something worthy.

Does this mean that for the rest of the game you don't have to die with one player anymore to reduce enemies stats?

It's honestly as much as we can do. We don't offer the recognition you're requesting via publications. Publications (for speed oriented movies) mean "this movie is the fastest completed verified one at the time of publication". And there's no clean unabusable way to add more to this meaning.

What about "sniped"? This would showcase the dramatic effect. Overall I like this idea.

Okay so here's the workflow that should work:
http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20837
It's using FS-UAE and libTAS, so no need to worry about internal support for rerecording, since we can just force it from the outside!

TAS Encoding Package has been broken since 17 Jun 2018: 10-bit 4:4:4 encodes were just 4:4:4, and 8-bit. Please update.

As far as publishing an 'already obsoleted' run, the current record would be the faster run sitting on the workbench. If the faster run is published first, the true record is maintained in a published state and there's no weird discrepancy of having a known non-record holder as the current fastest publication. By publishing the slower run second, the 'obsoleted by' ID could be set to the appropriate movie page of the faster run, and there'd be no obsoleting in a vacuum.
I don't understand what you're saying at all.
I'll try to reply to the actual post when I see the relation between reality and your feelings about it.

If 'accepted' movies can still be rejected, then perhaps we should change the judgment of 'accepted' to 'provisionally accepted pending publication' as that's more accurate and less disrespectful toward authors to whom this situation has already occurred and to those whom it will happen to in the future.
Where are you even seeing disrespect?
DrD2k9 wrote:
Still, the proposal to publish 'as obsoleted' would add minimal stress/work to the site staff, maintain honor toward the author, and improve the accuracy of archival for the game's history on the site.
Publishing as obsoleted makes no sense, because what would the actual record be? Technically obsoletion works by setting the "obsoleted by" movie ID, it can't be "spherical obsoletion in vacuum" if there's nothing to obsolete it.
Overall, it's undeniable that this movie has been proven to be sub-optimal. Usually we publish improvable movies if the improvement is hard to implement, but it has been properly bested now, from start to finish, with the improvement that MESHUGGAH posted, and with lots of other timesaves.
This is a speed competition after all, one should always expect to be bested and work hard in order to win.
