I mixed a few styles up together. I just don't know what style is the most popular with most people.
The Only Improvement
Not lowering flags
I once got this idea, and I made it the first time after hundreds of failures. I don't know how it works exactly, but I am sure that you have to somehow get into the block under the pole and then jump up. You may need to steer or NOT to steer to SOME directions when you are inside the block. If you make it, you'll skip the flag-lowering animation.
Note: I didn't use this trick in stage 8-3 otherwise I would have had to decide whether to waste 42 frames in watching three fireworks or not to by wasting 19+ frames somewhere else to miss them....
Special Thanks
Thanks to Phil, genisto and pom for their well-optimized movies that I studied and JXQ for his FCMFix tool.
NesVideoAgent: Hi! I am a robot. I took a few screenshots
of this movie and placed them here.
Oh! I also corrected the ROM name.
You indicated Super Mario Bros. (JU) [!]
I updated it to Super Mario Bros. (JU) [!].nes
adelikat: I guess no movie is unimprovable :P Accepting the movie due to awesomeness, and encoding.
Voted yes. Does this mean another 18 submissions, each 2 -3 frames apart, and 60 pages of arguments?
Sage advice from a friend of Jim: So put your tinfoil hat back in the closet, open your eyes to the truth, and realize that the government is in fact causing austismal cancer with it's 9/11 fluoride vaccinations of your water supply.

God damn, shut up.
Ahhh, I feel the love.

I'm sorry, but the extent of your posts that I've seen have been nonstop negativity, even if they have been jokes. I rarely get so blunt as to tell someone to outright stuff it, but I kind of got irritated with it.
Kindly stop it please. :)
ANYWAYS ALSO, does anyone else have any other ideas of possible improvements? It would be nice to see something gamebreaking. :P

I doubt there are any other improvements that can be made, heh, but most likely I'm wrong. I think something in 4-2 has potential for beaing faster, but there's the 21 frame rule, so I still doubt another improvement.
EDIT: I can't view the video, could someone possibly upload it elsewhere? ;)
Also... I still am thinking that warping from one side of the screen to the other with the vine in 4-2 still has potential.

Yes, though I found the previous run more entertaining, because Pom kept an eye on the frame rules (didn't he?). The movie seems to be able to be ended earlier which would shorten the movie length.
Amazing improvement. I think Mario's been very spoiled this month with all these improvements on various games! (I'm still trying to catch my breath from the N64 0-star run honestly)

Thats what she said!

Carry on.
Of course, I wouldn't make a post without putting something of relevance in (honest!) so here we go: whos going to finish the 100% with this new bug first? It'll be interesting to see who has the spare time to do such a thing. It'll also be interesting to see who does it just to get their name on the front page for a while :)
<adelikat> I am annoyed at my irc statements ending up in forums & sigs
Well, I am currently working on SMB1 warpless, SMB1 FDS and those SMB2j runs as mentionned in my homepage 30 minutes after this get submitted. But if someone is already working on some runs, I would like to be informed so I and he won't lose free time for nothing. Also, Bionic Commado project is paused for that, don't worry, I'll continue working on it after those runs get done.
Wow. Time... doesn't fly? I was only thinking about the SMB2 mario runs, and I thought those had been more than a month ago. I suppose time is slowing down because it's so near Christmas...
On another note, who voted "meh"?
