One naming option I haven't seen mentioned is "High%" as contrasted to "Low%". Here the limitation on the top-end of the completion percentage is not what is possible but rather what is sensible from an entertainment perspective. I watched the whole thing end to end, in addition to subjecting one of my partners to a significant portion of it. This is a really good TAS, the sort of thing that I come here for. Definitely moon-tier publication worthy.

You have no idea how incredibly stoked I am for this, THC. I shall celebrate its release with your namesake.

I'm looking to buy a flash cart for my Game Boy Color. Any recommendations? Most of the ones I can find are aimed at LSDJ. While running that would be great, I have to wonder if there aren't better products aimed more at gamers...

What effect does this have on temp encodes? For a while there I'd toss up a quick temp encode on occasion for people to vote on. Other than that ambiguity (which I think is trivial), I think this is a great move. I agree with it wholeheartedly.

I have purchased this game 3 separate times. I think it's one of the best games ever made. This run blows my mind and highlights the sheer elegance of the game design. Yes, there's a lot of time spent in places that are not pure gameplay. Deal with it. Strong "yes" vote from someone who loves the game being TASed.

Another example of an "arbitrary" restriction are Sonic "no zips" runs. I like the "no cannons" restriction. I also like Mario TASes. Despite the "unoptimized" nature, this was still a rather enjoyable run for me. I'm going to stop "gratuitously" using "double quotes" "now".

That stupid NES Garfield game was worse. I watched this whole thing and enjoyed it. Marginal yes.

Well, that settles it. Clearly the name of the game is TOWA CHIKI.

Watched the whole thing. Was extremely stoned. Enjoyed it. Watched (some of) it again sober. Wondered what the [coitus] I was thinking earlier. Voted: meh. It's not hard to entertain me when I'm stoned, but I'm not totally useless either...

This save corruption abuse thing is getting kind of ridiculous. While I agree that this should obsolete previous runs, I'd love to see proof that this actually works on a SNES. Of course, how the hell could you ever get the sort of precise timing needed to pull this off? I have no answers.

I don't give "equal weight to both". I have read both feminist literature and anti-feminist literature, and then made up my own mind after fairly considering both sides. Based on personal life experience, I then came to the conclusion that much of modern feminism is bigoted, irrational, misandrist bullshit. You and Dada have never read anything anti-feminist, though; you avoid it like a deadly plague. As mentioned before, that's extreme bias and self-brainwashing; you will not even honestly and logically consider the other side of the debate. Anyways, all this nonsense is besides the point.

Bahahaha, one of the best posts in this thread, and I agree so much.

Also, feminism is retarded. It masquerades under the false pretense of gender equality. Gender equality is currently unattainable. When I, as a male, am capable of bringing a child to term inside of myself, then giving birth with minimal intervention, we'll have achieved something resembling gender equality. Feminism is, as someone mentioned, little more than cultural Marxism and historical revisionism. It's oblivious to the fact that for millenia, women were not treated as lesser beings, but rather as greater beings. They had lesser physical strength, so the societal role of men was to protect them and do for them the things that require archetypically male strength. Society, for most of human civilization, held women up as paragons of what it means to be human, leaving the heavy burdens for the men. Both feminists and MRAs (which are, by feminist definitions, feminist) are a bunch of whiny crybabies incapable of looking at the situation and seeing that everything has tradeoffs, including gender. Almost universally, they appear to sincerely wish that they were of the opposite gender, so they could use some societally-provided mechanism to improve their lot in life. The term "feminist" is a great label. It's great for about one thing: allowing me to trivially be aware that an individual does not possess legitimate faculties of reason and perception. There are no feminists who get it because feminism is fundamentally errant and inconsistent with reality.

What a stupid topic. Here's how it works: You meet a girl. You make a move. She allows or rejects the move. If she rejects it, you're likely going to be, at best, a friend. If she doesn't reject it, well... Unless there's some compelling reason to behave otherwise, after a girl's rejected one of my advances, I don't tend to seek her company again. There are plenty of women out there. The only reason the "friend zone" is even a topic of discussion is because some men get hung up on certain women and can't take "no" for an answer. Move on with your life. Get out and meet more women. It's really not that hard...

Yes. I've been waiting for a complete-ish TAS for quite a while. While I'd still tend to think that a 120-stars run should replace this, it'd have to be a 120-stars BLJless run.

Easy "Yes." This is the sort of thing I come to this site to watch. There are some other questions like "What category does this belong in?" and stuff that I'm not asking or answering. I just like what I see.

This brings glory to the Seventh R--err, nevermind. The whole thing got blown way out of proportion, IMO. It's an April Fool's joke, and a highly successful troll at that. Then again, the closest I came to WW2 was through my grandfather, who killed exactly 1 German soldier and fell into alcoholism upon his return. I sympathize with those who were offended, but I was not.
