The thing is that tasvideos is not meant to be a repository of all TASes, or even all good/amazing/perfect TASes.
For starters, it won't publish a TAS unless the creator of the TAS him/herself submits it. That should be your first clue.
We will not publish a run if the author does not want it to be published, even if the license technically allows it. Common courtesy and respect towards the submission author's wishes overrule the letter of the law in this case.
What happens if someone takes the run, modifies it slightly, and then submits it? It will be like 99% identical, and the license allows doing that. Would it be published?
If not, then what if it used 50% of the original? 20%? Where's the limit?
Judges are human beings, not computers.
If it's obviously just an attempt to submit the same work as masterjun, it won't be accepted.
If it demonstrates something NOVEL (not just some frames saved in the 'gameplay' portion, for example) then we can re-evaluate.
Does the pokemon that you obtain with this glitch count in the pokedex?
Yes. As far as the game is concerned it IS that pokemon. (I don't know if it's the hatching that makes it get recorded in the pokedex or not, if that's what you mean.)
This run should be invalidated, because it does the exact opposite of what it should be doing on console.
(thank you double dribble, you will not be missed)
Instead of skipping to credits, this skips to the fucking PRESS START screen on a real NES.
I'll edit the post with more drama and charged words later to make everyone feel better.
edit: this is also one of the few runs with my new hardware; I can verify with my old hardware later but the run syncs and even does something to get back to the start screen so I imagine it's syncing fine...
Have you tried other Megaman TASes in console verification, and what are the results of those?
WST: Is there an atlas encode? I'd like to Watch it if so.
Atlas encodes aren't something you can just make with a script, they're extensive efforts.
Can I have a reference? I didn't know about any memes with that phrase :D
I don't have a reference, but the origin is that during a great 120 star Super Mario 64 speedrun on his twitch account, siglemic typed during a pause in the action 'this is the urn!!!' in the chat, typoing 'run' as 'urn'. Due to the atmosphere of the run and the thousands of people chat it was funny enough to instantly become a meme.
Seconding Anon's very old post's suggestion of Pocky & Rocky. I think a run of that could turn out to be both fast-paced and entertaining (and fairly short too).
I believe Mr. K started a TAS of this game. Or maybe it was the sequel?
Have you considered doing like this:
1) Make a 'test run' TAS of the full game where you focus on going fast, having no mistakes, all techniques included, etc. to see what the final product should aim to beat.
(Optionally do glitch hunting/technique hunting/find optimal movement patterns here.)
2) Do the final TAS where every frame you can is squeezed out. You can compare against testrun TAS to see how much each section is improving by.
You don't say? If you're going to put that as a placeholder text you may as well have put "THIS IS TEH URN!" instead as a reference to Twitch Plays Pokémon. :P
That meme came over a year before TPP. It's from Siglemic.
