Not having enough time to fully give myself to the projects I want to do. The fact that I have basically contributed nothing to the site yet.

Having attempted to play this game at a party I can tell that some of these things are extremely hard to pull off in real time, maybe even close to impossible in this difficulty setting. However, the game is not that much entertaining to watch, and you didn't shoot the credits which could have been interesting to see TASed as an encore. I have to vote meh on this.

That's a very nice find Mothrayas and an excellent time saver! I have looked at the PSXjin source code and tried to debug my way to the crash but so far it's very slow and agonizing (when debugging I can only get 4 FPS at best, mostly I am getting 5-6 spf [seconds per frame]). I have done the TNT box part of the intro level, it took me half a day or so (not counting the cut-scenes before it). This will take a very long time.

So no mouse means no Jezzball, right? :( Other games in wishlist: Chip's Challenge (unless the DOS one is TASed instead) Jezzball (probably needs mouse) Rollercoaster Tycoon Any Mario fangames (ex: Mario Forever, Super Mario XP) Skifree (getting past the yeti :D) Rodent's Revenge
IF Chips Challenge is to be TASed it should be done on the DOS version as it's the original platform and nothing is gained from doing it on another platform. Also in my book the original for DOS has better graphics and music.

Nice tricks and execution, looked a lot better than AjAX run. Though all the door cinematics etc really kills the entertainment. I have to vote meh on this.

I am afraid this game is beyond my current TASing skills, but I would like to help with moral support.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c49Tvx7EwdA This appears to be a new glitch, and it should save some time. Note: not my find, I just saw this on another forum and figured I'd post it here.

I never dreamed of that this much frames could be saved on the old run, this is incredible. It's impossible to vote something else than Yes.

I checked the encode as I am too lazy to go find the ROM. To me it didn't look like TASing the game really adds anything compared to playing it normally. Try playing around with the cursor more. For example: writing things that would taunt the opponent if he could read it. Also see if you can find any way to mess around with the games palette when shooting.

We do have this movie already which is basically a point-n-click shooter: [1586] GBA Silent Scope by jlun2 in 03:41.98 I will watch your WIP in a few hours.

Using parts of the credits and intro screens as a map ... Now that is glitched. Yes vote. I second Zeupar's screenshot suggestion.

I can probably attempt the timing bugs. I studied the GameBoy for my thesis project last year. Though I don't really have time right now.

I am currently in a state of complete WTF. The previous TAS at least had a few seconds of sanity in it. Yes vote. Great improvement.

90% of all the women dress like hookers. (No, I don't wanna know every detail of their shape before I even talk to them) Beauty and style magazines. (I don't want to be told who I have to look like in order for women to want me ... I also don't want them women told that they shall only go for people looking like some Hollywood star) Artificial sweeteners and other diet-versions of products. (Ok, the artificial sweeteners lets diabetics eat stuff they normally can't, but they are named in a way that makes every dimwit on the planet think they are the magic solution to their extra 5 pounds) McDonalds. (I don't know what these fellas serve, but it ain't food!) Solving problems from the wrong end. (Just like making hacks to hide problems when you write programs, solving problems from the wrong end doesn't really solve the problem, you just hide it) Putting products on the market too quickly. (I know it's awesome to be the first one to release a brand new device, but PLEASE test it thoroughly first)

You already submitted this movie, and it was rejected. http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11629 I truly don't see the point of submitting this again.

Important about the Atlas Sphere velocity: It seems like you should add the values together (ignore sign) to get the velocity in the direction you are going, I am not certain about this though.

While this wasn't overly entertaining it had some quite funny moments, and the MegaMan style zipping in 4-4 had me laughing loudly. Excellent improvement. Yes vote.

Perhaps it's not a problem precisely because of the limitation in place. If it's removed, the problem might resurface.
Where did I say that the limit should be removed? I just agreed with a previous poster that the text could be a little more explanation-encouraging.

While I do believe that one should write something to accompany the vote, it may not always be possible, not everyone here is an ace at English and may not like to post much to avoid sounding like a total retard. So while the idea in logic is good, it might fail in practice. I do however agree that the text should be changed to something more encouraging like "Please write a short explanation to your vote" since it seems like the abuse part no longer is a problem.

Second picture, to me it's more "WTF" and makes me want to check the TAS out.
