    agreed^ no harm done in making a thread especially considering how inactive this one was at the time

      *grumble grumble*

      *food drop*

      ...fine.

      Working on a LoZ run, still pounding out the route. (Can't remember how to get the silver arrows, might need the red ring too for peace of mind.) There's luck involved, more so with this game because of enemy behaviors. Farthest I've gotten without dying is through 5th dungeon, saving Level 6 for last because the wizzrobes in a couple of the rooms are a bitch and a half.

        Wizzrobes are much easier if you know the trick to the blue ones never attacking you (stand in between tiles). Certainly made it much easier for the three heart run I was trying to do once I realized that (after dying 50+ times).

          The problem with that is that they're not working alone. They've got red ones and like-likes and occasionally even jinxes in the same room.

            Re: The Speedrunning Thread

            Gonna poke this thread back to life because I finally got one of my speedrunning goals today:



            Sub 25 super meat boy

            Depressing thing is that now my splits are relatively decent up until Rapture. I lose at least 4 minutes between Rapture and The End in these splits Probably lose a minute in salt factory as well.
            Time to grind practice.

              Just that you're a piece of shit who can't see reason and instead deserves a fucking beating.

                Played some more Pokémon Puzzle League for the first time in a little while, and finally got sub-20 in Spa Service!

                  No stream, no vid (Easy way to record this?), no ss (That was stupid of me). But...

                  Single Segment Pokemon Yellow PB: 2:16
                  Pokemon Yellow Segmented PB: 2:32

                  I use Playr.org for my ~emulator~ so I hope these still count.

                  When the game isn't fun for you anymore, take a break. It's not a job, nobody here is professional and getting paid to play and force themselves to constantly improve... it's a game.

                    pokemon times are usually based on game time so that emulator doesn't matter
                    but sick job completing yellow, it's a pain in the ass.

                    I guess I'll post this here cause it still stands

                                sda takes the video and uses a frame counter to get the exact time from there, so no worries if you hit the button early
