I saw some tases form 2003 and saw they were made with an emulator called famstasia and I wanted to ask why you stopped accepting movies from there? I downloaded it so that I could play about with it and nothing seemed wrong apart from some sound bugs. Thanks for reading

Look at famtasia's rating on emulation accuracy. Wiki: EmulatorResources/NESAccuracyTests
http://www.youtube.com/Noxxa <dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects. <Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits <adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.

If you want to play back TASes on real hardware, you better verify (rather than trusting your eyes) that your emulator is absolutely accurate.

That's already a big hint that it's not accurate.

And what exactly are the benefits of having it?
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.
