Shall [198] SNES Kirby Super Star by Zurreco in 51:02.10 get the "One player in a multiplayer game" tag and be un-obsoleted?
Note that I use Wheelie Rider kirby a lot, and the helper is lost between games and clearly less important than kirby, so most of the run doesn't look very 2-player.

Hi! Dev here. I was browsing my analytics, and found that my highest visits this month are from a website I had never heard of. and I thought "how curious". Nice to meet you all.
SKRAAGHRHSCH has 10 hit points, but I don't think that matters too much for you.
I am honored that my game has been the subject of such activities, and I am curious about where you found it, and what makes a game a good candidate for TAS? I suppose it is easier to do GBC ROMs because you could play them in something that manipulates time, etc, where as a browser-based game is a little tougher, or a game with a truly random generated world may be difficult to maintain consistency between runs. (for instance, https://juzek.itch.io/cellracer is probably not very possible as it currently is, although it would be easy to make an off-line build that is more consistent for you all.
Seeing as though I noticed improvements since the submission (mainly the Bowser fight), it may be best not to publish this. But then again, I recall Nach reacting unkindly towards how horrid the hack looks, although you can only applaud the author for trying; the hack series sparked worldwide significance for players and users. It was one of the hardest of its kind anyway. Still, we're better off waiting for staff approval before we can give rise to a new run of this hack. We can't be hasty enough to assume, "Okay, this is good, now let's make a new run." No. We need to ensure the TASVideos staff approves of this hack. Yes, they've lightened up on how they accept ROM hacks, but we can't fully use this to our advantage. In this case, we'll have to take it with a grain of salt; the staff will hopefully handle the rest in the meantime.
Would the fact that TAS cannot obtain this source of points hurt its judging due to suboptimality? Is the fact that the trick has been done on the Switch version going to hurt the argument for potential version differences?
Furthermore, since SWH is an unity game, reverse engineering the code is reasonably easy. Are there any issues with me using reverse-engineered code to potentially prove this discrepancy in behavior between versions? Would it be required to argue that the suboptimality comes from version differences?

This is gonna be a weird one. So, there's this game that I want to TAS for speed called GG Aleste II/Power Strike II (Game Gear). It's a shmup with the unfortunate issue of (very slow) infinite score leeching so speed is a more appropriate goal. The problem is that the only speed leaderboards for the game that I know of are on the Aleste Collection, which have replays but only has a Japanese release on Switch and PS4. I couldn't find many runs of the game to completion for that version online so I can't be certain of an exact fastest possible completion time, though I think I have a rough idea of the best time. Am I still expected to know these times for beating all known records if it requires either buying the collection (possibly twice if the systems have separate leaderboards) or knowing some folks who can check and verify those times for me?
But now there's also a question of how do we want to name non-USA versions of games. Previously the USA name had to be used even if the movie is made on the Japanese version, to make the movie easier to find. But that was only a problem when navigation was movie based. With game based navigation, you can now have different aliases attached to the game, and user will be able to find it. And non-USA movies still link back to the game they belong to.
https://tasvideos.org/140G
So do we still need to care what "THE definitive default" USA version is called, and use that name for all other versions? Or maybe each version can now be called according to its release title (barring actual Japanese spelling)?

how to send a file? and... do you have discord?
It doesn't affect me. I'm not interested neither in this game, nor in this "TAS". I just don't see the point in encoding and publishing it and I think you don't see it either. For such a game, which is unique case for sure, all the judge has to do is note the time, make sure it matches the rules and make a decision. I'm sure in that case, which I hope will be the only one in the site's history, this is necessary and sufficient, like some Math theorems say. Even though the site's trademark includes the recording and publishing of each accepted movie, recording 33 days of maximally repetitive gameplay doesn't make sense. I'm not trying to persuade anybody to refuse to publish it, my opinion has never been worthy in 8 years of my presence. But my point is, that's not a good idea. After all, don't encoders have any others things to do?
