While you do play the game well for what you're given, I think this is a classic case of 'blame the game, not the author.' There are simply too many parts in the run where nothing happens, and then anything that is left over is either terribly repetetive or it's over in a hurry.

This game crashes IMMEDIATELY for me. As soon as I start the program, I get an error window and have to close WaDF. Can anyone take a guess at what is causing this?

tasvideos for example...
That's a good idea.
I disagree, mainly because the term 'TAS' is still just a stand in until we can all finally agree on a term for the movies made here. However, since the domain is just as fluid as the current one, I don't see why not.

Also, Kirby Superstar's Great Cave Offensive, 100% collection. Skip everything before and after, ending the movie at the star ride out of the caves.
I nominate JXQ, since he proved that he can plan collection routes like woah. Or nitsuja, because he's pretty cool too. Unfortunately, we have turned nitsuja into a whipping boy for our emulator maintenance :/

Voting yes: this is a great improvement over the existing run. Some of the fights were terrifyingly fast, and the overall routes used were great as well. Good job, champ.

"Fpoon" is a "Frosty Spoon." One of the stupidest commercial I've ever seen, even for fast food.
The new topic should read "nesvideos, the home of Platinum Barrios and Fabian runs."

Of the sites that show up from googling 'always on top, software', nothing looks too appealing. Of the 3 programs I have tried so far, the windows become transparent when not focused on, or they become inactive when on top.

I think it would be easier if you just run one of those programs that adds an "always on top" button to everything, rather than have it added one at a time to each emulator.

Aren't the majority of the members here swedish anyways?
Or live in the scandinavian quarters at least. :/
I think it's fairly divided between Northern Europe and Northern America. Unfortunately, Northern Europe is nowhere near as big as Northern America, and so gathering everyone in Sweden/Norway/Finland/etc would be 10x than gathering people from Quebec and California.
Maybe we should just make a program like goonmap, where users log in to a version of google maps and place themselves on the map. We can then get some accurate readouts on locations and dispersal of nesvideos members.

Compare Eurovision with Date My Mom. From the little I read, which was very little, Eurovision seems to be like American Idol for bands and Date My Mom seems to compare more to Blind Date.
So what, are you saying Date My Mom can't compete with Eurovision then? >:| Where is your proof?
Also, I think I saw a music video from Lordi posted somewhere a few weeks ago. Something about a bunch of teens getting killed in a cabin or something. I'm therefore comparing the star of Eurovision (the metal group Lordi that melts faces with guitar solos) and the star of Date My Mom (that really buff mom in that one episode that had a cute daughter or something). With this in mind, I'm going to go ahead and say that the buff mom could tear apart Lordi, which makes Date My Mom the better show*.
*Better is a relative term, and I do not condone anyone watching Date My Mom unless they are terribly terribly bored.

Basically, the spazer and plasma beams are not meant to be used at the same time. However, by moving fast enough in the weapons menu, you can't equip the two beams at the same time. This creates a glitch known as the "murder beam".
As for the actual logistics of the weapon, well... as far as I can remember, you have to face to the right or left when you set the 'beam' (which is actually just a ball of glitchiness), or else the game will crash. The ball that is dropped alters a lot of the things that touch it, killing some and not affecting others. I also think that turning around, shooting, or deactivating the weapon set up will crash the game. Don't quote me on this stuff, but it's the best I can remember.
If you check metroid2002.com or samus.co.uk, you can probably find a lot of info on this glitch.

Rodeo clowns don't go to Clown College. You learn to entertain when you attend Clown College. Rodeo clowns are just meat puppets, and so they intern at meat factories.
