WOW! Could you please remind what breaks sync originally?

Remember that entire conversation on IRC with me (and fsvgm777) telling you to switch your name back with you wanting "fancy characters" yet, AviSynth will not accept this.
We will still call you xy2_ no matter what you decide to do to your own alias.
Just for everyone's curiosity the "fancy characters" was χγ²− (chi & gamma respectively)
Please use only alphanumeric characters in your nickname. Do not use only numbers. Special characters, such as these are not allowed: #&!+%@
History knows some cases where the author's name contained special characters (/*-), but it's still not allowed to use things that require tricks just to get written. For example, my system didn't let me use £.

Just had an idea, apologies if it was brought up before: Could we potentially start using this thread to discuss tier changes in general, not just star suggestions? As far as I know, there isn't a place to discuss published runs that are worthy/unworthy enough to be promoted/demoted from tier to tier, and since this thread is already about promoting/demoting Stars, why not generalize it to all tiers?
I'd prefer having a separate thread for Moons/Vault decisions, if there's even stuff to decide about those.

This one is the neatest so far.
What if to simulate asterisks, simple huge white dots are used instead of Xs?
EDIT:
Here's what I imagined. Looks aliased as hell, but I can increase letters height to look more like letters as we know them. Note how much text fits in.

This is very good. I'll try out my idea too soon.

I suggest to draw the letters in black, but figure out a font that's so small it's barely readable, and only resembles the original letters. That way you could make a lot more text fit, right now it simply looks nothing like a bsod screen, which is very recognizable to everyone. I'll try out the alphabet I'm imagining soon.
Another suggestion: don't actually write the bsod text, draw it by filling the black (or white) gaps line by line. Would look more like a smart puzzle where the result is not guessed instantly, like in Baxter's Tetris playaround.

This would, unfortunately, require redoing the seed. The manipulation done in 4+7 is short of the hardest manipulation I've done in the entire set (6 numbers in a row!) even though it looks really natural, and relocating it would require an answer ending in 11, 12, 15, 18 or 19 to even have a shot at reproducing this.
Then what about writing that text right in that seed? Having a mere question mark there loses all the fun the text would give. After ELEVEN, it won't look like too much craziness going too soon. The point of it is also that this exact phrase was said by PJ during some of his AGDQ runs (and he's famous for breaking everything accidentally and giving super fun comments about it), will try to find it.
No idea why micro changed my original request to end with a ? in the script.

Some old gold. This vid gave me the hardest laugh I've had for the last few years. I mean, it's ending.

Also, I think if the melody of SmoothCriminal is simulated by the pencil sound (even if there won't be a melody there) it would be quite recognizable.

Archanfel's #2 would need a flag guy. And a page of guidelines. Which could be used by publishers/vested editors already, once it exists.

You have no idea how much time I've spent on pcsx, and I got this bastard working as I wanted, developing my methods on a real task. I was motivated because there was no choice, and because it helped to reduce time spent on bullshit during encoding. Now you take this for granted and want me to sacrifice my time once again resyncing it when you might have sacrificed your time working with a better-in-everything emulator, when the choice is already there, and is obvious. I have all rights to disagree and boycott :3

Is there a way you could create a resync workflow between Bizhawk and PCSX? Every time a desync ocours in bizhawk, PCSX sends the right snapshot over to PSXHawk.
I also wonder who is meant by "you".

I won't be publishing this one as a protest against dropping the use of PSXHawk by someone we know very well.

When I select End Movie after I load such a state in read+write mode and record some inputs, they simply aren't in the movie at all (until I save a state) for some reason...

You mean, you need to save after your new inputs to have them written into the movie when load full savestage-movies is checked? I think it's so by design.
Pausing triggers before it desides whether it should dump that frame or not, so it's also by design.

I am, the point is, "other psx emulators do it" is not a proof. Having touched PSX emulation world quite a bit, I know it sucks hard.
