Hello! I am new to Tas, but for a few weeks I have disclosed much the videos here in my town. I am planning a project with a group of people here to better disclose the Tas here in Brazil, while putting the link on the page Tas. But anyway, I'm willing to challenge some of the players such as Fabian, Mister, thegreginator, skamastaG .... To post a new video game Super Mario World (SNES) ... in which shall be used only to use the flower ... Can anyone do this? ADM - let me know if there is already such features as video or if this is the best place to post the request ... Thankful!

There's a small only runthrough of Super Mario World, which is technically a more restricting challenge than yours. Will that do?

Suggesting something in a 'list of ideas'-thread is fine... but if you want to see something very specific... just make the TAS yourself, don't ask specific TASers to do it for you. TASing costs a lot of time. You can't expect someone to spend hundreds of hours on some idea you had (it's possible that this might happen, but very unlikely).

Actually what it was seeking to challenge the players to a competition to see the ability to flower the item because all the videos I've seen players do not use it :( And besides, I believe that to give a funny video with the item flower!! It is a pity that no one use the SMW!! And here in Brazil, in my city, we're all excited to see a top doing that! thks patashu!

If you want to see a mario game where the fire flower is used, try one of the other games like super mario land or super mario bros (1).

You might soon see more of the fire flower in SMW, as there is a useful glitch involving yoshi eating an enemy while it is turned into a coin by a fireball, which I expect we will see in upcoming runs.

MatusaleM, you had better stop this crusade to get this movie created. You've created 4 topics, (3 of which have now been deleted.) Then, I find you've PM'd me, most likely as well as others, to have this movie created. The next step will be a ban. Final Warning.

I've been sent a message as well. I'm not even a Super Mario World TASer (although I did give a decent suggestion for someone in the topic, and I do follow a few things). This is what I see currently happening in Super Mario World TASes: There is the 100% version being worked on, an improvement over what we currently have. With new glitches being found, there is potential for Fire Flower being used a few times for these glitches, should they save more time than staying with the cape. In addition, I'm aware of someone working on a playaround. From a piece of the run that we got to see, there was some use of Fire Flower in an earlier stage than other runs, though primarily used for glitching, as is in the nature of the run. As this run is not constrained to time, I wouldn't be surprised if the Fire Flower gets decent screen time. Whether they will be seen more often here than in other runs, that remains to be seen. I am not aware of anyone with particular interest in Fire Flower only. Finally, a point that I am not fond of... Asking once for something to happen is fine. If you have to ask twice, consider trying it yourself for a bit. TAS projects tend to take a very long time, and even if someone does agree, it's not often something that will be finished overnight. Even if we are patient, we tend to have other things to do. We may be a TASing community, but it's not like the only thing most of us do is TAS. You've asked several times, and even sent messages to people (such as myself). I don't have anything to offer other than what I said in this post already, and anyone viewing a topic like this that did have interest probably would have chirped in by now. This place doesn't seem to have people with much of a desire to fulfill your request, and I do not know where to look for such people. DarkKobold gave you a final warning. Please take it and quiet down. Asking us again won't speed anything up other than your own loss of access to this site. (I don't mean to act like a site staff, as I am not. I just wanted to say these points in my own words.)

I am site staff. I am annoyed by mass cross-posting and by annoying other respected members of the community by means of mass PM. Think carefully before trying that again, lest you risk my wrath and find yourself formally unwelcome from here.
