What about of add age verification on the page and forum? could serve?
If a movie with adult-theme is published it could be verified the age to access the Wips / publication in the page without putting at "risk" to the younger visitors / users. The same as TASVideoschannel in youtube, set up the video only to be seen over a certain age. Also add a sub-forum for these types of games that require age verification to enter

Hmm. Seeing Orkal videos in Lava Reef, I think you can do the "ACT 1.5" glitch, and climb to the sky in the unloaded ACT 2 and back to Sonic's start, later you can enter in a starpost or giant ring and reset the glitch, finish ACT 1 again, and I guess ACT 2 can load now, it's a theory but it's the best thing that came to me.

I think a stair clip is possible in the first and second stair, but I do not guarantee that Knuckles fall directly into that solid place, in theory is possible.
It would be best if you ask yogwog about this since he did an investigation while doing his movie a few years ago.

The PAL version of Genesis Prince of Persia includes 4 extra levels (Stages 6, 7, 12 & 15, respectively, on PAL) that doesn't exist on the NTSC version (as well as music on the levels).
The published run, as well as the obsoleted movie, uses USA version.
So, the PAL version of this game can be acceptable to include those extra levels in case of a new TAS of this Genesis port?
For me this is a valid case for accept this type of movie, because the pal version of this game adds more content in this game, not minimal changes compared to SMB

I finally resynced MGZ2 and saved a lot of time.
Old time: 4:29.04
New time:4:23.51 | 4:23.01
Difference:5.13 seconds / 313 frames | 6.03 seconds / 363 frames
Cross your fingers so that CNZ don't desync
Edit: Saved 50 frames in boss battle thanks to Hyper Sonic
Edit 2: Good news, every level syncs perfectly, now finally I can start TASing LBZ. yay!

Clipping through surfaces: I imagine you mean this to avoid going through objects with sounds. But what about clipping corners? You are technically going past at least one surface, and you are doing that only because of either, game logic allowing it (for clipping terrain corners) out because you are exploring the discrete time of the game to go past object corners.
I think it refers to not traversing surfaces or objects as it normally does Knuckles with its glide clip or making "stair clips" to take great shortcuts
Those are the "glitchless" rules imposed by speedruns.com but for me I think they are missing some glitches in the game. As example: spindash trought objects is not mentioned but is a glitch, Terrain ejection as SBZ2 in aglar's TAS, Cliping objects with the carry glitch as S+T, Sandopolis 2 gravity glitch with the switch as S+T, Acceleration up to 4096 sub pixels in loops is a glitch? I'm no sure but is possible, skip lava reef 2 and sky sanctuary Sonic/Tails bosses. Those are the ones I remember ATM, the last 2 are a little arbitrary but I think it's worth mentioning them.
Personally we should see which rules are most suitable for each type of goal, whether 100% glitchless, Any% glitched, playarounds, score / ring-attacks.

Sounds like a good excuse for a new Sonic 100%.
Indeed yes, Sonic 100% needs a update too is a 8 years old run. But for me I would try with another goals like: No zips
Or
Low glitch: The following are defined as glitches, to be omitted during glitchless runs:
Wheel glitch
Slope glitch
Screen wrap
Level wrap
Zips
Clipping through surfaces
But sometimes these chosen goals always generate controversy between people, you can see the discussion in Aglar's Sonic 1 no zips or my prvious 100% TAS, so almost obliged full glitch run are the most common to see. But yeah, this does not mean not being able to do them and presenting in TAS Videos to see whats happens
And I think it would also be interesting to see a Tails 100%, Tails newgame+ , Knuckles newgame+

Very funny run, Is nice to see how improved your TAS skills every day, even using 2 players :)
This days I helped joojamoi with the Knuckles 100%, so I'm free now I hope finish resyncing this TAS finally, and do a tesrun in DEZ1 that I had planned to do long ago.
Personally wanted to see what a ring attack in this zone would be like, you already showed me the ACT 2 so thank you.
About recording in the emulador, the emulator record the avi in 240p, but you can convert it to 720/1080p with a video converter later combining all AVIs into one or converting it into an MP4. The advantage of this is that you do not lose much quality and the sounds do not get loud like it happens in badicam

Thanks Paused, to be honest I also did not expect to improve it in short term, but joojamoi ask me if he could use my input and I would help him with the resyncs
I'm uploading the encode when I finish I'll edit the sebmission.

Here is a test run ring-attack in Sky Sanctuary with Sonic +Tails.

About the movie resync, I'm currently in MGZ2 almost in Knuckles boss erathquake, saving around ~8 frames.
