What makes me more puzzled is that this got a Moon tier. How?
Looking back at the discussion prior to publication, I see that only one person said anything suggesting that it was less than entertaining. In addition, 19 of 22 votes are for Yes. As it turns out, this publication is the lowest-rated current Moon publication on the site, at 4.6 . Its entertainment rating is 4.3 and its technical rating 5.5 . It is in a higher tier than publications like [2190] DS Metal Slug 7 by mtvf1 in 21:27.77 [1356] SNES Battletoads & Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team "2 players" by White Gastra in 17:50.27 [853] NES Ghosts 'n Goblins by Arc in 08:23.13 [984] NES Arkanoid "warps, demo glitch" by Baxter in 04:26.28 [1225] NES Karnov by adelikat in 08:58.50 which are all currently in Vault. This says something about how much we should trust the vote poll and the posts in submission threads.

The technical rating sort in the Movie Filter doesn't seem to order the movies correctly. http://tasvideos.org/Movies-Moons-RatingQ-NoScreenshot-NoTier-NoFlags.html According to what I see, [1836] 32X The Amazing Spider-Man: Web of Fire by Aqfaq & mmbossman in 06:45.48 is first with a tech rating of 7.5 . [2230] A2600 Phoenix by Lollorcaust in 00:18.15 is next with a tech rating of 5.5 . [2062] N64 Super Mario 64 "70 stars, no Backwards Long Jump" by Jesus, Kyman, MICKEY_Vis11189, MoltovM, Nahoc, snark, sonicpacker, ToT, CeeSammerZ, coin2884, Eru, Goronem, Mokkori, Nekuran, Nothing693 & pasta in 42:58.52 is somewhere in the middle with a tech rating of 9.5 . Edit: By the way, the rating sort options attempt to sort movies even if they have less than three votes (which means the rating is not shown).

If you mean a few edits being assigned a Unix time of 0, well, we don't know how it happened. But it hasn't happened any time recently, so no one cares.

I loaded BizHawk 1.4.0 with the movie from this Game Gear submission. It reports a SHA1 of D23A2A93. That does not look like SHA1 to me. It looks more like CRC32. This information is in the movie file's header. Just a report. Edit: BizHawk 1.4.0 also reports D23A2A93 as a correct checksum for "SHA1" for that submission and the ROM I have.

This is some really slow and long fetch quest. It has also been purged of just about every minigame, by selecting a menu option to skip them. Based on the reaction from the previous submission's thread, and the reaction (or lack thereof) here, there is no doubt that, if it were to be published, it would be in vault tier. The question is, should runs like this be accepted for publication?

And the word 改造 (Kaizou) has been dirtied by a specific hack of Super Mario World
But only in English. And only the spelling "Kaizo". In Japanese, 改造 means reform/remodel, or in the context of video games, game mod/ROM hack. It doesn't mean anything more specific than that.

The totem skip works pretty well. I have a question. Why do you change to Yammar Option through the menu instead of using weapon switch buttons?

.........OK. Wasted at least three hours trying to sync the movie (not counting the time needed to obtain an ISO three times). This run should have been accepted two weeks ago. It might have taken another week had I not thought of documenting the video plugin settings. You can thank the plugins' GUI designers for that. On another note, this run syncs well with Eternal SPU Plugin 1.41 despite being a 3D game (though that was without running kkapture, but I don't think it is any different with it), so encoders can use that for encoding.

Any comments on the run before it is judged? There is an encode ready, with translation subtitles as well.

I'm not sure this submission qualifies for vault. It uses only one mode out of six possible modes and the "ending" doesn't feel complete.

On second thought, you're right. I merged it into the wrong thread. So I split it and merged it into another thread instead.

I wouldn't know why he is banned. Maybe something similar to this? Not that this is necessarily the reason why. http://www.destructoid.com/sega-forcing-removal-of-shining-force-videos-on-youtube-239581.phtml

Undie's encode no longer exists, but fortunately Nicovideo ensures that there is an encode floating out there. Link to video I am trying to sync the movie, without success. Please inform me if you are able to sync it in emulator. - I tried two ISOs. Both are 681MB. Their SHA1 values (use HashCalc) are 37c5746e0969d159f6b1111a2904e72857c252d0 and 22a29d3fe63b3294cfcb63377c137f5a3c34cc89. Both of them desync at the same spot for me, the second stair area where the character becomes stuck on the railing. - I also used the settings described in the submission text. I am using PCSX v0.1.3a, SCPH1001.bin for BIOS, and TAS Sound Plugin 0.2.

I agree with adelikat. The goal "20000 points" (more accurately, "at least 20000 points") does not seem to be justified, especially since the result is only 36 seconds long and feels incomplete.

http://vgmaps.com/Atlas/PSX/index.htm#MegaManX4 I still remember vgmaps.com, though I haven't gone there in a long time. It is very useful. I think this goes in the Mega Man X4 thread, in any case.

Thanks for the reply, SXL. The movie is already finished. It is about 30m40s long. I'll try to get it submitted this weekend.

Sorry for posting late, but my opinion is that TASVideos does not need a TAS of this or any other porn game on this site.

Guys, find something better to do. And stop talking about the past. If you have any suspicions of anything, please bring it up privately with an admin.

My usage of the word "unwatchable" in the submission is invalid for this purpose because it comes before the site publication reform. The usage is also incorrect as it was merely to emphasize what I perceived to be incorrect emulation causing the game to run "too fast". However, emulation is deemed to be correct, so this submission passes. Currently, the word "unwatchable" has devolved into a buzzword to indicate one's personal preference about a movie (i.e. entertainment). Usage of that word should now be avoided.

suwei, are you still trying to improve the run? If so, I will delay encoding.

This TAS is nice. Better than my Mega Man Xtreme TAS, in my opinion. It definitely helps that there is a switch-weapon button. I thought at first it would be essentially another Mega Man Zero TAS, but it looks like X found some use here. Which is a good thing. Anyway, I'll vote yes for Moon+. By the way, be aware that, because of a rerecord count bug in some versions of VBA, the rerecord count may be inflated. It is still a huge effort from Mothrayas (and Guga); I can hardly see myself doing a TAS project using over 60K rerecords.
