Vote: Should this movie be published? (Vote after watching!)

Submission Text Full Submission Page

Art Alive! is a video game for the Sega Mega Drive, in it, you must draw imagery.

Emulator used: Gens 11a
Colours an image without any input
Does not Color a Dinosaur
Breaks the TASVideoAgent

Comments

This TAS was very difficult to make, it took over 9000 rerecords to finally achieve this astonishingly fast TAS.

adelikat told me to submit this run by the way.

Stage by stage comments

After a couple of frames I gave up and said screw it and hex edited the input file to have 1/3rd of a frame of input.

Nach: This great run is sitting here clogging up the submission queue. We're too lazy to encode and publish it, so I'm rejecting it. Feel free to argue with this decision. I welcome it.

flygon: Screw you Nach, I wanted to reject it myself.

flygon: Uncancelling and rerejecting by the way.

Nach: No fair, you're supposed to do this kind of bickering in the forum, not in the submission.

flygon: Well excuuuuse me princess, now setting to cancelled and rejecting again.

Nach: Princesses triumph over dragons ever time. Rererejecting.

flygon: Dragons have bigger cocks then Princesses, recancelling.

flygon: Unrejecting because frictionless games of poll suck pool cues.

flygon: Rererejected because the site is dying

flygon: This setting isn't used enough

flygon: Rejected for the last time.

I just don't think this game is suitable TAS material; I found this run very boring to watch. Perhaps the astonishing length of the run contributes partly to that. Besides, there's an obvious mistake right around 00:00.00 where you don't do anything when you could have. No vote.

Desyncs for me. Perhaps I'm using the wrong emulator version? Maybe I have a bad ROM dump :/

This didn't color a dinosaur, definite no vote from me. Edit: I thought perhaps I was a bit too hasty after rejecting two other runs today, so I went to rewatch this. Guess what? It's even worse than I remembered. What were you thinking? You didn't control two players, you didn't use any super missiles, and as art goes, this sucked. This run deserves a new option in voting: "Please kill the author of this run for making something so awful". Or better yet, "Please kill the author's parents for making something which could make something so awful".

Any homebrew playing music would do same, doesnt matter if its a branded game or not, this doesnt beat anything nor does show anything interresting (apparently), and its not superplay Voting no, despite your efforts This is more entertaining : http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8906

You should of posted WIPs first, this is very improvable. Voting no and hoping it gets rejected due to known improvements. EDIT: This is 2 frames slower but shows a better technique: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SntX5o46dpM

I'm going to go register a new account just so I can vote no on this again.

Still can't get it to sync. Doesn't matter anyway as I am attempting to obsolete it as we speak. I'll vote meh since I can't find the ROM.

I don't like it when authors end input a frame early just to shave that frame. If I had been holding down any button when the file ended, I wouldn't have completed the game.

It's going to be great when this run is published and we can use it as precedent in all kinds of arguments!

You know.. my signature references another TAS... one of King's Bounty.. and a quote from it that has served us well.. but you know what? I was bored to tears. Music was shite, graphics were shite. Seriously dude! As if it wasn't bad enough during the Super Bowl.. and now you gone and TAS'd the Janet Jackson Nipple Flash... I'm sorry.. but those 3 factors alone make me have to vote no! And next time? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!! Mr. Kelly R. Flewin

I hated it, but because of abuse that has happened I'm voting YES.

"Genuine self-esteem, however, consists not of causeless feelings, but of certain knowledge about yourself. It rests on the conviction that you — by your choices, effort and actions — have made yourself into the kind of person able to deal with reality. It is the conviction — based on the evidence of your own volitional functioning — that you are fundamentally able to succeed in life and, therefore, are deserving of that success." - Onkar Ghate

Voted no because I refuse to watch this encode. This is why: http://i49.tinypic.com/1zyzyqh.png
