liked bully the bullies, metal head mario can move, and five itty bitty secrets.
does this movie have no long jumps whatsoever?
EDIT: I take that back. I saw a long jump somewhere. Overall, great movie
Didn't you mean to post this in the run's discussion thread?

Amazing and very impressive run! Some stars, like Blast to the Lonely Mushroom are brilliant strategies! Fantastic job to all of the authors.
Big yes vote!

Thank you NamiNami! I will ask for your help if I need it. I've been following Miles' route like you have, but there are some tricks that he mentions that I wouldn't have known how to do if I hadn't watched your speedrun, so thank you for that.
And it's really good that I learned about pressing B above the ground back then; it looks better and is way faster.
I hope your speedrun gets published in The Big Push on SDA this month. That is, if you've submitted it yet (I can't find it in the "movies needing verification" thread there).

I think you missed Kirkq's question, and since I was wondering about it too, I'll echo it here: Why is this a playaround instead of a speedrun?
Also, the battles were the most interesting part of the run. I liked that you and your friends took no damage for the entire run. However, the battle strategies got repetitive, and I was wondering...could anything have been done to make each battle different so the run would be more entertaining?

I tried TASing Super Smash Bros. Melee and it was a pain in the butt for me. I don't know if i had the latest version.
Yeah, Melee used to be really bad with desyncs. I don't know if it still is, but most games have no desyncs at all now that Dolphin's savestate problems are fixed.

I saw that Japanese guy's Run of this game on YouTube and i can say that your run is way better than his so far.
Yes, part of my motivation for finishing my TAS of the Prologue was to show people how horribly unoptimized his "brilliant, fast, optimal" run was.

Sorry for the wait. I wanted to be here today, but I was pulled away to spend time with my grandparents all day. :\

how long have you been working on this? How long will it take to finish? (estimate)
Technically, I've been working on this since June 2011, back when Dolphin still had big problems. I was getting desyncs all the time, but I was inspired by batora's Super Mario Sunshine any% TAS (which I thought was frame-precise, silly me) and was confident I could complete the run on Dolphin r7323. But I restarted the run for the last time in late October (when the graphical glitches were fixed), so, counting all of my restarts, it's probably taken me about four months so far. As for when it will be finished, I had originally expected the run to be finished by the end of this year, but I have a lot of annoying English 102 projects and other things I have to do. I hope I can finish the run by the end of 2012, but I might end up finishing it by early 2013.

I'd try to be patient for a while and see how often he updates.
I am usually working on this nowadays. Anytime you want to know how the run is progressing, just ask here and I would be happy to tell you.

I heard a while back that it took 2 years to make the current Majora's Mask speed run, so i don't expect This run to be done any time soon.
I don't expect the run to take 2 years (that would be too long for you and me both). Though, like MrGrunz, the reason it's taken me so long to work on this is because I had to keep restarting the run over and over (because of new glitch/route findings for him, and major Dolphin fixes for me).

Sorry if i sounded rude! Take your time! It'll be worth it!
Like Bobo the King said, nothing you've said has sounded rude. I'm always happy to answer your questions and I appreciate your interest in my run. And don't worry: I'm taking my time optimizing everything to the best of my ability. I really don't want this run to be obsoleted anytime soon.

Nice improvement! 8-2 was a cool and creative solution.
I still approve of the "Minimum Presses" category and this run entertained me a little more than the last one, so I'm voting Yes again.

Was there ever a TAS of 100%? I know there's any%.
Yea, there a few you can easily find on youtube.
I just searched YouTube for a 100% TAS because I was looking forward to watching one, but I couldn't find any. I only found a 100% TAS of Stone Tower Temple and a 100% real-time speedrun. Do you have a link to the YouTube video of a 100% TAS?

Pushing the analogue stick further than would be possible with a normal controller is really no different than using left+right/up+down. I don't see how that could possibly justify a no vote.
I agree. And if we rejected movies that used L+R/U+D, we wouldn't have quite a few published runs (like A Link to the Past "glitched" and Super Mario Bros 2).
I found this entertaining, and it's fast and well played, so I'm voting Yes.

No it can't, wiimote recording doesn't work properly.
This is true, and though it's been said plenty of times in the main Dolphin thread, somehow he missed it anyway. Shouldn't this information be mentioned in the first post of the "Do not TAS using official builds" thread so people like sack_bot can find it right away?

Made another song
The first part of this song really took me someplace. I imagined myself floating through the stars. I forgot about the planets and everything else for a few minutes and just floated through space. I took my time and gazed at the beauty surrounding me, not having a care in the world. Then as the song's tempo changed, I imagined flying faster, visiting distant galaxies and viewing their stars. My experience ended when the rock section started, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy that section too!
Anyway, well done. The first part is wonderful and dreamy, and the second part is upbeat and catchy. Thank you for composing this music and sharing it here.
