Just as a note: You could've requested on your other submission a file replacement and then add the additional author after.
Yes, however seeing as it's been quite a while I thought it might be a better idea to just make a new submission. Sorry for the inconvenience.

https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles/Info/637949574383986691 I accidentally submitted with the wrong fm2, like an idiot. Here is the correct one.

Why are there 2 scrolling black pixels near the status bar? It doesn't show up in the other 2 publications.
Letters in SMB2J are 1 pixel larger than numbers, and this causes their dropshadow to fall below the point where the screen scrolls (if the entire screen scrolled, then the HUD would as well). This causes the very bottom pixels of the dropshadow of the letters in the letter worlds to scroll across the screen. It has no collision or anything, it's simply a visual bug intrinsic to the game. This wouldn't happen in SMB1 though, because in SMB1 none of the text has a dropshadow, which causes the text to effectively be 1 pixel smaller than in SMB2J.

During the 3-day waiting period, I remembered that bruhmoment had helped me with saving the A-2 framerule a while back, and so I have managed to save a framerule over my old TAS there. Additionally, I saved 4 extra frames in D-4, meaning my new TAS is 25 frames faster than the original. If it's possible, could the fm2 of my submission be replaced with the fm2 of my new A-D warps TAS? It should be downloadable from the user file I just uploaded. Thank you.
I forgot that I probably should have linked the userfile in question, so I'll do so now: https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles/Info/637949574383986691 Hopefully it's more entertaining than the older version of my TAS.

But I would honestly prefer a warpless completion of the A-D levels.
Agreed.
The main reason why I chose to do a warps run, rather than a warpless run, is because I feel like a warpless A-D TAS would be too similar to the back half of the Lost Levels warpless TASes. Additionally, blazit/nobodycallsmetubby has already made an A-D warpless TAS as part of their FDS All Levels TAS, and I don't feel like I could have done as good as/better than they did. However, I do understand why a warpless TAS could have been more entertaining.
