You reminded me of the idea to use a cheat in Wario Land to set the timer to exactly the amount of time it takes to complete the level, so that technically it's making the game as "difficult" as possible.
I actually think that would be really cool. You'd see e.g. 12 seconds and think 'WTF, how's he going to pull that off?'

Psychologically it looks like a normal cheat code, so no.

When you finish an episode you're not automatically moved to the next, and nothing is waiting for you after you beat them all. They are essentially self-contained.

I second not redoing. Leave it as an incentive to improve the run in the future.

Is the pause glitch emulated well?

IMO the screenshot should be glitching through the bottom of the world in 1-1.

This looks like a good game for TASing, so I voted yes.

It also relies on people self-reporting accurately, but very often people over or underestimate things, or pretend to be something they're not. A better test would involve interaction to see how well they cope in an actual situation related to their job, and that can't be standardized.

I have been corrected by Kles. There is indeed a real time 0 star completion of SM64: http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm12887548

Predicated on the assumption that the exact kind of person that the test is looking for is the exact kind of person that will be best for each and every workplace that uses the test.

But the test serves no purpose if the worst kind of person can pass it by memorizing what to put down. Unless you intend to procedurally generate tests, it is inevitable.

How about FF1? There's a lot of dead space between movements on the map that you could use to input the second half of the TAS input.

If you can change the graphics, could you make a playaround run that edits mario/enemies/scenery into funny things? How much can be done with just breaking blocks?

I'll throw in a vote for adelikat, since a number of the games Ilari did are simple.

My only objection is that I'd prefer a system like range voting, but in vote for one vs vote for any number the clear winner is the latter.

Approval voting is a lot better than the alternative.

The ridiculous horde dodging near the end is amusing.

SDA accepts segmented runs too. Also, what do you mean by 'elitism imposed'?

Things that have to be managed to maximize speed. Things like subpixels, acceleration and meters that fill and unfill to let you do faster things depending on how you behave/interact. The more things you can juggle for a faster time, the better a speedrun will be.

Was the delay before Jump the Road for luck manipulation?
