A quick bump from me for progress, and to reveal some 'new' info. Did you know that TGL has a "lost world" like the Metroids? It's fun to explore, since it's VERY volatile. Here's an article on it: http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/nes/file/587320/37475 According to it, there's a way we can glitch straight to Corridor 22. Here's a password to get you into a "Corridor 0" room, and start your journey on the Lost Frontier with 0 Shields and all keys (taken from the article): 3stG 0gBG XYRF UMdE RAtD OIHD nkQC IcJA If there was a way we could go out of bounds in the game, we could try to manipulate a Corridor 22 to appear, thus skipping most of the game.

Glad the joke's over, I about darn near had a heart attack last night. I totally bought right into it too -_- I was all like, First they take away Danny Johnson's GH Videos (the kid who holds 6 WRs for GH), then tasvideos goes poof... Let's just say I nearly had the cops on me for disturbin the peace. Please don't do another stunt like this, I dunno how much more my heart can take.

I enjoyed it but it was kinda boring. I did love the whole 3 second input then beating it whilest the A button was taped down, but one weapon runs get kinda old, espically when the player doesn't move. (It's probably me though, I kinda hate hiding in the corner with the chaingun in DooM) But I do love TGL, and we don't have a run yet, so I'd love to see one get done. Thus Yes vote from me.

Yeah it seems like either A) it's a big hoax and maybe it's trying to elicit some lukers to come out and play (kinda like a publicity stunt) or B) the site is really going down and everybody who made a TAS apparently wasted their lives making it. See my post in the announcement thread if you wanna see my rant on it. In a way, I agree with Rick. I kinda wanna wait a bit and see if this blows over. I really hope it does, as this was a great site, and although I might not have been very active on it, I still spent a good many days here.

Another long time luker, first time poster here as well. I can only hope & pray that this is a April's Fools joke as well. Else, this will probably be one of the saddest things I've ever read. Oh whoop-de-do, emulators aren't perfect. Neither are the Roms. Nothing can be truly 'perfect'. Imagine if you will, 2 copies of Zelda OOT, and 2 different N64s. Now plug in 2 of the same controllers as well. Question is, if the input is preformed at the same time, will the game be the 'same'? More importantly, if the games yield different results, which of them is the 'correct' one? Both games may play the same, but according to all this talk, they will most likely have different results, even though the hardware right down to the controllers is the same. It sounds like, because there is no WAY in hades to get 'perfect' randomness between the two games, that everybody should just GIVE UP... I mean seriously, WTF??? I remember before tools like memory watch / frame rewind, even the sound emulation was bad, heck I remember when N64 TASing was just a pipe dream... and now you're all gonna give up due to something really STUPID??? I can't tell you how hard it is for me to keep a sane talk up right now. TASes are 'supposed' to be fun. When people dismantle the site due to some stupid problem, I can tell it's much more than a mere hobby to them. I mean come on, should a stupid emulator problem mean that the rest of us cannot enjoy awesome, fun videos filled to the brink with game-breaking bugs? This is just my 2 cents, and sorry if I don't make a lot of sense. I feel that closing the site due to something stupid, is well, stupid in itself. If it is indeed an April Fools joke, and I am way out of line and took it totally wrong, I'm sorry for it, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who's pissed at what's going on here.
