So... Masterjun learned the game, made researches/debugs and used/created his own tools to find improvements what he did because this emulator had the possibility to use this RNG while the earlier one that p4wn3r used can't recreate the very same game state at that given time. He TASed the game's every parts but couldn't find anything else that could be improved, probably because it's already a highly optimized route to finsh the game so fast.
Now look at the rules. According to
Wiki: MovieRules, p4wn3r's movie is acceptable. But
Wiki: EmulatorResources prefers BizHawk/lsnes (this movie) and also accepts p4wn3r's movie.
So the difference in the two movie is that one of them could be made faster because the emulator was different.
The way I see is now that someone made the previous movie with the fastest possible route (as far as we know it and the author made many researches) that possible on that emulator which still accepted, later someone improved it but that was only possible because the newer, preferred emulator's timing difference (and the author made many researches).
If there will be no core changes done in the near future, I would say (
and I'm not a judge) :
accept this movie and add p4wn3r as author and Masterjun as co-author. Why?
Everybody's dream is console verificating everything and sometime we will need to leave VBA and use a probably better emulation. However Masterjun tried to come up with new things but couldn't improve it, just had 2 frame advantage cause of different timing. It's basically doesn't improves the earlier movie.
This judgement should respect p4wn3r's efforts he made on the game (the fastest possible run on the still accepted emulator) and proves people that it's likely to be possible on a real console since Masterjun made enough efforts to make it as fast as possible on the newer emulator without losing/gaining time.
I also think that just adding only p4wn3r as coauthor to this movie is a good idea, since we are making speed run records too, so if someone faster (in real time, days months etc), he wins and Masterjun did it. Of course, if this movie would be faster than anything else besides emulator timing, p4wn3r (edit:)wouldn't be added as co-author (or author for my opinion).
