On 2021/10/29, we submitted the TAS in 33157 frame of NG2. In the days that followed, Scumtron explained new points of improvement. Then our submission was delayed for judge. During that period of time, I had some communication with Scumtron and finally determined the presentation of the TAS. It integrates part of our videos.A month later, Scumtron submitted an unlisted WIP in 33089 frame. The link is:

Later, I asked Scumtron if he could submit the latest TAS. But he said he was still pounding away at this TAS. In order to respect his opinion, we did not update this unpublished WIP to our submission. In February this year, Samsara said that: It's been three months. This has waited long enough. If the improvement ever gets finished, it'll have to be a new submission. Accepting this as an improvement to the published run in the meantime.
This year, I spent a lot of time on other games and completed some new TAS. When I saw that the TAS of NG2 was submitted again, I was surprised. I thought that Scumtron had found a new partner and was promoted. But when I saw the frame number of the video, it was so close to the previously unpublished WIP. If we had originally submitted 33089 frames TAS, then eien86 might have been improved by only a few frames. So my first question is whether it is reasonable to keep only the names of Scumtron and eien86 here. What's more, Scumtron delete his own name now. Therefore, only eien86 is left in the current submission.
This seems to be the case under the current rules. The right to speak is always in the hands of those who finally discover ascension.
Of course, I still respect Scumtron's opinion here. Because in my mind, he will always be the person who has made the greatest contribution to NG2 TAS.
In the NROM version you can go to the left so you can turn right faster, gaining speed and falling to the lower platform earlier. Also in the NROM version you resurrect after death faster. The rest is level loading time difference.
