Haha, so he got the horse after the whole adventure, then left it in another country in his next adventure.
So... Is there a better way to do this? Like still use all the savestates, but just advance really slowly?
put yourself in my rocketpack if that poochie is one outrageous dude

Have you ever seen Epona smile? maybe she's glad to not have to deal with Link in both TASes...
(can horses smile? Is Epona female?)
I mean she's a tiny horse, I bet she hates having Link ride her...
You are skipping Epona, right? I mean, it makes sense because it'll be faster, but it sort of confuses the storyline. The Skull Kid steals your horse and then you just forget about it and never get it back.
When has "the storyline" ever mattered in a speedrun? Am I missing something?

it doesn't matter to the speedrun, we got completely distracted.
For obvious reasons yes Epona will be skipped, it's skippable and saves a lot of time so it'd be only nostalgic to save the biped.

horses are quadrupeds, did I miss something?

uhhh, you've probably never read this. Also you probably never should read it. it will scar your mind forever. Don't read it.

yes, I meant quadruped
actually, isn't ganondorf in one of the game shops? I remember someone mentioning that, I don't think it's going to be part of the speedrun but you go into some shop, and Link is suprised to see him.

No. Gannondorf is dead and anyone that makes claims to have seen him is retarded.
Hey, man, there is a Temple of Light and a Triforce in OoT as well! And a 4th Triforce piece!

AKA --
I have seen the AVI, but could you provide a frame count to a certain point for comparison?
Text skipping from Grandma onwards is done with B where possible and AB elsewhere.
BOMF --
I think this is the best way forward, either way means slow progression. I'm not going to pull the wool over anyone's eyes, this run won't be finished for a long while. This way desyncs are minimal and it also forces a pretty much perfect movie so it is better in the long run.
Finally --
If anyone has any good suggestions about what I should do whilst waiting for midnight speak now or forever hold your peace.
Maybe show off some glitches that wouldn't have much use in in speed portion? I don't know any in particular, but I'm sure there must be a few you can pull off.

show off some glitches, maybe do some funny stuff near townspeople, annoy the dog running around in north town, see if you can visit every person by at least standing next to them before time runs out, do some acrobatic stuff in this game, make patterns in the ground with deku spinning: would it be possible to spell your name?
For one thing, stay in the same area, you don't want to waste time by screen transitioning.
Unless you want to go hunt for rupees.
As for down-time? Try to glitch through stuff using the dog (ala MIPS glitch in M64), just don't go near the cheap deku scrub.
Mukki I can do the comparisons once I see your WIP, there is not much you can when waiting I suggest just messing about and delay getting on the platform with the heart piece and then spining round the heart piece without collecting it.
Someone want to explain the hole route(because nothing else is goin on here), im really sure people would like to know(including me). Im playing the game on an emlator during history class and get goron, then zorro, then was able to kill the giant spitting water guy with the boomerang blades. Then i got to the palace and realized I needed a bottle for the magic beans, then remember you could skip 90% of it by goron bounce. Now i will progress tomorrow. Can the deku dungeon be shortened because you have boomerang blades before the bow. But you need bottles later, right..? or are we just gonna bomb glitch over everything... or has all this been answered on previous pages that I cant stand reading. Reply
Thanks.

Hit Z rapidly while moving streight forward to make deku link slide forward on one foot. Also, show off the glitch where the camera gets turned around when you're backwalking.
Trying 127.0.0.1...

No offense, but maybe it'd be in your interest to pay more attention in school.
The route = complete the four dungeons and defeat Majora's Mask on the moon. The end.

you know, out of all the forums i have been to, everyone is a bit of a idiot... except this one. Why ruin it now?
Mukki where are you at the moment, I was actually thinking about helping you with a few odd bits later in the game, at least to serve as a demonstration or something to compete against.

I should be getting magic. I did up until returning to East Clock Town, checked the entire movie, no desyncs. Did further up until leaving the stockpot inn, checked the entire movie and it desynced at West Clock Town (immeadiately after the scarecrow dance). This was 1) annoying and 2) unjust, i mean, it worked once so it should do again. I played the movie back and the same thing happened.
I'm going to take it back to first entering West Clock Town and redo everything to go over the desync because I suspect that it is in there somewhere. It sounds like a major task ('He's spent a week on this WIP already' etc.) but like I've said before, I've kept detailed records of all my input for this very purpose. I should be back to business tonight.
