Yeah I'm really looking forward to him being done. The 70 star run is so amazingly sick and I imagine this will be kinda similar.

I'm sure some of you know and some don't, anyway there's a guy over at SDA who's working on a 120 star single segment run, and he's gotten 2:17 in a test run with deaths and huge mistakes and stuff. He's going for sub 2:15. Sounds extremely fantastic to be just 5 minutes short of FODA's test run.

But didn't you hear? The nutritionists flip-flopped again! It's the saturated fat that's good for you now!

Those silly nutritionists!

I gained five pounds on the honeymoon. It was a cruise and all there is to do is eat. Frownsnake. Seriously I need to move.

I bet there was something else to do! Right, nudge nudge, say no more!

Regarding bacon, Bacon is very non-standard on sandwiches here in Sweden. Insert joke about fat (and silly!) americans here. I'm picking up various vegetables on my trip to the store today. Also, I have a new kind of ham, so tonight will be exciting!

Today I watched Lost in Translation. Very good, I like Bill Murray a lot. Reminded me to rewatch Groundhog Day. Also, Scarlett is of course sickeningly hot. If you only consider hotness, she is probably the number one celebrity in my book. Next in line: The Godfather. The good thing about never having watched lots of movies is I get to see them for the first time now! Looking forward to this one.

Balloon update: Getting hexediting to work was too hard (thanks JXQ for trying), so it's been decided to ignore the new tubular and keep going in the forest of illusion. The good news is that Tubular looks cooler (I think) now, the bad news is I miss out on a pretty significant timesaver. Also, even using the current "route", that level is improvable a decent amount, abusing walking oscillation speed, something I was unaware of/couldn't do/didn't do until I got memory watching to work, right around Donut Secret 1b. But meh who cares right? Forest of Illusion update: I'm having trouble getting past the spike monster thing in FoI2, you know. Hopefully I'll figure it out.

1) There's no (good, at least) reason for the spin flight in Funky. It's not even necessary to cape the piranha, you can begin flying regularly right away anyway. About the TSA exit, I think the reason might be that the platform (ceiling) is too far up, so if you flew up there with regular flight, there's not enough room to catch air again. This could of course be fixed by using the hopping glitch, which was not known at the time. Otherwise I have no explanation for it. No luck on the balloon thing.

Guys, I just went to the kitchen to make myself some sandwhices in my sandwhich grill (I bet there's some fancy name for it, but that's what it does, it grills sandwhices). Normally I use bread, butter, cheese, ham and peppers, but today I was out of ham. I made the sandwhiches anyway, and they were slightly disappointing. I'll of course get me some ham when the stores open in a few hours, but this got me thinking; what else might I put on my sandwhiches to make them taste even better? Silly americans, Please don't suggest mayo. Edit: plus correct spelling.

I tried out various things when redoing Tubular, and couldn't find a way to manipulate the speed. I didn't test up+down though, so I'll check it out to make sure.

When you record a movie you can choose to check or uncheck "Allow left+right". If you have an older version of snes9x you might not have it. If so, you can find the newest version in the Snes9x subforum here.

I agree that the old Tubular looked much cooler. The thing was, because of me entering the level on a different frame than VIPer7, the football guys didn't throw their footballs on the perfect frames, you know where VIPer7 bounces off of a football. So what I had to do was to duckjump underneath the chucks, and then turn around, release P-switch, turn back, jump off of P-switch up to a ?-box near the goal post. Looked pretty neat, but was 6 frames slower overall compared to VIPer7, so I don't really mind anyway. Although I described everything you need to know about that level, I might include it with some other cool stuff that didn't make it in the submission text.

Bablo was kind enough to offer to help with the hexediting, so I just redid Tubular anyway. 146 frames faster than the first version, so that was nice. Thanks Bablo!

If the delay is exactly 4 seconds, that adds up to quite a bit over ~95 such delays. I definitely don't see 6 minutes and 20 seconds being saved in not having to backtrack. That's not what's going on here though. What is going on is that a console player found a timesaver involving pressing left and right at the same time, in a level I've already completed.

I'm back home and will start working a bit on this again. I've been thinking about the left+right thing, and I've decided that I should remake the level. I was under the impression that left+right wasn't possible on console, which is why I'd normally have no problem ignoring a timesaver using it. However, apparently it's very possible, which changes everything in my mind. There's definitely no good reason to ignore it, I think. That being said, I'm probably still not going to go back and redo it. If it was something I could fix myself I probably would, but it just seems like too much work for someone else to fix (hex) for me. Anyway, I'm halfway through the Forest Ghost House. Hopefully progress will be relatively fast in the forest.
