As usual here is an optimised version of the chosen screenshot: Please, tell me if I should stop doing this or if you're actually appreciating my help.

I'm appreciating your help, Irdoh. I'm always replacing my screenshots by yours. However, I'd like to know what is the batch script behind this optimized awesomness!

You broke it, you bought it. Seriously, very well done. This is well deserving of one of my extremely rare 10s for technical quality! I genuinely can't see how this could be improved by any considerable amount. (Now watch, someone knocks five minutes off this run some time down the road. XP)
I'm not that hard to find... if you know where to look. -=( http://jolikmc.tumblr.com )=-

Frame perfection isn't the only factor that you have to consider when rating the technical quality of a movie. I recommend you reading this.

Why was Rush Search summoned in the Wily Machine fight? I saw it dig up a small weapon refill (2 units) Was this for Remote Mine? [which at last visibility, had two (2) bars remaining from the Groundman fight] How many bars are needed to use R. Mine? 3 or 4?

Just before he used Rush Search, he used a Remote Mine, so now he has 0. The point of using Rush Search is to dig up a small weapon refill. When there are 0 bars, Rockman fires a buster shot. Then he grabs the refill (0->2), then fires a Remote Mine. This is the only way a buster shot and Remote Mine can appear on screen at the same time.
