I did enjoy that each heat was different, and optimization level looks good, but it's too similar to unassisted play to warrant more than a 'meh' vote. Nice work on maxing out the time!

Short and obliterates the game in record time. A bit incomprehensible but I was entertained anyway, Yes vote.

This is probably not a TAS you should watch sequentially at 1x speed unless you have a LOT of time to kill - but jumping around and watching the shenanigans TAS uses to quick kill opponents in each game mode and do lap skips and in general bully and style on its foes is great. This game is hard as hell and full of RNG in casual play, and it's cathartic seeing it get completely stomped over. Yes vote. I loved the Dragon Drop shenanigans.

Link to video This improvement is 2 subpixels off of an improvement to a main category (Minus World Ending with L+R).

Ok, I stand corrected - that is VERY pi-tastic already. Nice work!

Out of curiosity, is NES startup state the kind of thing that tends to be similar between different people's NESes or different, or do you only know about your own for now?

Extremely entertaining TAS - high quality in that no two CPUs die in quite the same way, and a lot playaround is included. Even if you don't know the game at all it's an amazing watch due to its delivery on an absurd premise. Thank you for making this! Yes vote.

Very entertaining! I take it pacifist as "not killing" not "not attacking" since I did see some attacks colliding with other attacks?
As can be seen at the end screen of each match, Luigi never deals damage.

The actual questions go down to whether or not it's worth bothering about uploading it and if so, I would need some tips to do it, is there really no simple free "record video" utility without a water mark?
It's 2021, you don't have to use Unregistered HyperCam 2 anymore. Check out OBS: https://obsproject.com/ It's free and very user friendly.

Well, as a non-vaultable category it has to be entertaining enough to make it into Moons. If it doesn't, the nature of the category does not even have to be considered by the judge.

Wow, this is such an amazing route. I'm impressed that the meta can be shaken up so much so late into the speedrun development for this game.

Finally after 2 years, ABC any% gets one step closer to being solved: Link to video If you're wondering why it took so long and still isn't done, it's terifyingly hard, but theoretically possible: https://pastebin.com/TiCGb954

I don't think this can be justified for anything about Vault in reality. It's a bootleg of a puzzle game that already does nothing to explain why its solutions are solutions.

I watched back the any% RTA WR by Niftski ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3NRe3KulqU ) and counted jumps in each stage. 1-1: 17 1-2: 28 4-1: 34 4-2: 19 8-1: 54 8-2: 29 8-3: 23 8-4: 10 + 5 + 5 + 13 + 5 For a total of 242ish A presses. Though obviously a lot of these are just buffering. I don't know how many jumps are in a 'any% WR with only necessary jumps' run. Probably the A press count in the 'minimum button presses' TAS is a good first approximation though, and that one has 125 A presses.

A delightful, entertaining and surprising TAS. Short and sweet. I enjoyed it, yes vote.

I feel like the games in this series (Parappa 1, 2 and Um Jammer Lammy) have a LOT of potential for max score runs, but it would also take a shitton of research. Something to think about at least!

Yes vote! While not as world destroyingly glitchy as the movie this obsoletes, I enjoy highly glitched TASes that don't just use one glitch to become God, but have to navigate the world using a new powerful set of techniques. Similarly, I'd love to see an obsoletion in this vein (preserving the spirit rather than the rules of the category) for another pokemon classic cut down in its prime, [2653] GB Pokémon: Red Version "Gotta Catch 'Em All!" by MrWint in 1:54:56.62. I don't know what specific ruleset the RTA equivalent to the category uses to avoid devolving into one-god-glitch but it managed to remain exremely cool ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3myc23dd1_Q ) so maybe there's hope for TASes too?
