Mothrayas
Hello guest! I am a 18-year old guy from the Netherlands. In my free time I like to work on TASes, among other things such as surfing the internet and playing video games. I especially like the Mega Man series. Therefore, most of my TAS projects are Mega Man-related. Since speedy Mega Man platforming is usually nice and entertaining to watch, this can only be a good thing. On the 14th of May 2012, I was promoted to be a judge, primarily to help out with the stream of PSX submissions. TODO: Update and revise userpageHere, you can see all of my TAS projects. All information about my past, current and future projects can be seen here. See the other tab entries for my published runs, current projects, future projects and future ideas.
See also my more personal stuff further ahead, such as my favorite IRC quotes and my avatars.
These are the tool-assisted speedruns that I made and got published on the site.

| Mega Man ZX Advent is the second game in the Mega Man ZX series. What's so different between the classic series and ZX Advent? First, you get to choose between a male (Grey) and a female (Ashe) character. Then, instead of stealing weapons from the bosses, the player steals the boss itself! Instead of switching between weapons, the player switches between forms using the Biometal Model A. Finally, the player has less freedom to pick the stages of his choice.
Mothrayas picks Ashe, the female character, to minimize the cutscenes and to save time.
To play the DSM file, make sure that "Enable Advanced Bus-Level Timing" is unchecked in the "Emulation settings". | ||

| Mega Man ZX is the first Mega Man platformer on the DS. It is also the first Mega Man game to have the choice of a male or female protagonist (the latter is used in this run). Unlike previous Mega Man series, this series features a new system where the protagonist is actually a humanoid who changes forms using different biometals (collected mostly from bosses). | ||

This movie has been obsoleted!Click here to see the new movie.Mega Man X3 is the third game in the Mega Man X series, and the last one to be released on the SNES. This is the first "100%" run of this game. Mothrayas speeds through the game very rapidly, collecting all heart tanks, subtanks, Ride Armor modules, upgrades and finally the Golden Armor. However, Zero is kept alive and his Z-Saber is not obtained, so the author could get the best ending. The page Mega Man X Tricks explains some of the tricks that are used in this tool-assisted speedrun. See also the any% run of this game, which doesn't collect the upgrades but does collect the Z-Saber. | ||

| Sigma returns again and Earth is in great danger. Zero is off having a party all night, so Mega Man X steps in to do the job. Even if not as awesome as Zero, he still manages to do the job in less than 20 minutes while also getting the Ultimate Armor. | ||
I will list the TAS projects I am working on, in order of priority. Projects higher in the list are the ones I'm most actively working on.
SGB Mega Man V
Author: adelikat & Mothrayas
Currently at: see link below
Progress: see link below
WIPs: see link below for WIPs My newest project, which I'm working on with adelikat. For progress, see this page. PSX Grand Theft Auto 2 Author: Mothrayas
Currently at: First mission
Progress: 0%
WIPs: None yetEven though the game has BGM emulation issues, I'm starting this anyway.
Currently trying to decide whether to use outdated PCSX or PSXjin to TAS this game.
Currently put on hold for an indefinite amount of time.
Currently put on hold until PSXjin has Skip Lag Frames option, which makes the game actually TASable.
Returning back to TASing this game, in PCSX.

These TAS projects I haven't started yet, and I probably won't work on these until my current projects are finished or the things that prevent me from working on these are fixed.
Wii Mega Man 10 "Proto Man"
I intend to do this with AngerFist as soon as Dolphin is accepted on the site. I chose Proto Man because he's the fastest to do the run with and is available right off the start.
Now unlikely to be done, thanks to diggidoyo's Mega Man run and the same author working on a Bass @ Hard Mode run, covering most of what MM10 has to offer.
PSX Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time "100%"
This is one of those games I really loved to play over and over again when I was little. I may do this sometime in the future. However, PCSX and PSXjin have a cutscene freezing issue shortly after the tutorial stage of the game, rendering it incompletable at this point in time.
Other future ideas of TASes I could do. I haven't really or seriously thought about these much, but I may or may not do some of these later.
In any case, at the very least I think these games do deserve a run on the site, if there isn't one already.
PS2 Mega Man X8
Mega Man X8 was one of my favorite Mega Man X games, alongside MMX6 and MMX2. Of course, I'd have to wait until PS2 TASing becomes a reality.
GBC Mega Man Xtreme 2
This game seems like it should also have a TAS published, like Mega Man Xtreme (1).
GB Mega Man IV
Should also get a published run on the site along with SGB Mega Man V.
I like to use the variable avatars system (mood report) on the forum. I like to use Mega Man X weapon recolors from X4, X5 or X6 as variable avatars. Can you recognise all the Mega Man X weapons?
As of 19th July 2011, I replaced these avatars with this set below (which I currently use). It's Grim Reaper Sigma from Mega Man X4, recolored mostly as the avatar set of Mega Man X above.

See also: My favorite IRC quotes.
[29 October, 2011] Some of you may have noticed that I have been significiantly less active the last couple of weeks. Simply put, since the start of the new school year I've had basically no time for TASing. My motivation for actively TASing has also just kinda disappeared, and I don't know if/when I'll get back to actually doing something. Currently I only lurk and post on the forum now and then, but I won't do any active TASing. I apoligize to everyone who was anticipating my works in progress (scrimpy in particular), and also to adelikat, with whom I was working on MMV, and Rolanmen1, who I used to talk with a lot on IRC. I hope I'll be able to get time and motivation again sometime to return.
