Which one? There were like three weren't there? Seems to be a thing now ever since Punch Out.

Re: The Speedrunning Thread

Really enjoying running Wings of Vi. Been awhile since I've speed run anything seriously. I have a few runs under my belt and already have my time down to 1:19, which is 20 minutes faster than my last run. Might take a run at the leaderboards and a sub 1 hr time if I keep improving like this. 1st try kill on every boss that run I think except for 1 death on Kratarac and Twin Orcs and 2 deaths on supreme J. Most of my deaths were platforming derps XD Had a nearly flawless path of decay and almost shat myself until I died probably 20 times on the last skeleton bus part. God damnit.

Solgryn games just seem to be extraordinarily speedrunnable, and I'm glad he's so receptive to it. They make for really fun runs to watch.

Re: The Speedrunning Thread

Yeah. He hangs around in the twitch channels and watches runners. He's obviously either a speedrunner himself or really enjoys it, and you can see it in his games. Just don't tell him about glitches that are beneficial to runners, he likes to patch them.

He also likes to not fix things that are really broken

So the dude who ran Tetris at GDQ, Kevin Birrell, one upped himself last night.
He scored Grand Master and I think only 6 others have ever done this, but he's the first outside of Japan.
