I'm sorry about that, I was literally leaving the door as I clicked the 'Publish' button. Fixed, sir!

I did actually insert commas... Archive.org removed them. -_- Edit: AND I can't edit them in! If there is going to be a 'proper hotlinked' upload, It'll have to be from Mediafire or something like that, at least that preserves the filename.

Longest filename I've ever hard to create for an encode. I'll upload it to DailyMotion when I can be assed splitting it.

Yes voted as an improvement on the previous movie and encoding.

I just suggested it because the other screenshots looked slightly more boring (In my eyes). We should probably get someone over the age of 18 to get a screenshot. Also, not posting my encode because Aktan got softsubs into him.

Yes voted and encoding. I found the run mildly entertaining. Suggested preoptimized screenshot:

Simple, I remove the duplicate video... but I'll be honest; I'm mostly relying on in communication between team members to sort out who adds the video. But ultimately, it is a very minor and easily fixed issue.

I've just been accessing the group from inside my profile, never figured out how to do it from the front page. About the 'Only authors can add their own runs' thing, people are able to add videos that aren't inside their own account (for example, if I made a TAS and WebNations uploaded it, I could add it to the group under my name).

I agree with CtrlAltDestroy, I've added a note saying only the author of the video can add them and linked to WebNations account and the official account as a complete archive. Also, please PM we your YouTube name if you're a Publisher or Judge, sorting through people is really much of a pain.

On the case of restricting people that can join, I am considering it but I'd like to keep it open for a few days first, to allow people from TASVideos to join in without fuss first. This is pretty much the only place that has the group publicised anyway. Incidentally, I will automatically promote any Publishers, Judges or Moderators that join the group to Moderators (At least, I am sure that is what promoting does, unless it is Shining Force style anyway =B).

And here it is! I had found the feature a day or so ago and set up the group since, I personally think this will be a very useful central method of displaying Tool Assisted Videos to the general audience and would encourage people to post their TAS's, whether they are full blown TAS's, just playarounds or purely demonstrations. I intend for this to be less formal then the DailyMotion groups because of the discussion features inbuilt to YouTube, thus, facilitating the general audience a bit more, I hope. The group is completely open for now, but if we begin to get bots, I will begin to lock down on the flow of people joining the group, not something I want to do. Also, this is in the General discussion because it's more of an informal thing, but still relevant to the Site.

Sonic Retro MFGG Shining Force Central Sega-16 Some scummy old ratty place called TASVideos I'm... not sure of it's official name Yggdrasil Online Memorial (I know ZeXr0 used to play it, he should join the memorial, heh) Kitsune Paradise (I kind of... lurk) Any others I won't list for obvious reasons.

Of the three games I have worked with (Somari, Battle Squadron and Gourmet Paradise), I chose because I played them rather a bit in the past. Unfortunately, the problem is that two of them are 'bad TASing choices' and Gourmet Paradise has a rediculous RNG. (I am aware I didn't make the submitted Somari TAS directly, but I have worked with it's engine extensively enough for TASing purposes to rightfully claim that I have worked with it extensively)

Thanks for uploading it to DailyMotion, I was... *ahem*, too 'busy' to upload it there myself, you work is greatly appreciated! However, I do have a request, may I please suggest adding the link to the movies publication inside the video description and join the 'Tool Assisted Speedruns' group? This will greatly help the spread of the video.

Do you have VirtualDub and ffdshow installed? If so, I suggest reencoding the video using that, it hasn't failed me yet. I usually encode into lossless H.264, but since this is a 64 game, it might do you well to process it using a lossy version, I'd suggest doing two passes with a bitrate of 1000... but, that will take forever, perhaps a single pass of 1500? I haven't encoded any Nintendo 64 games in my time, my hidden dirty secret.

This is due to the fact that any attempts of uploading Grunts encode to DailyMotion failed, that's why there was a lack of streaming media link other then Archive.org. In fact, I actually linked to Aktan's encode inside the description but not the publication simply for consistency sake. However, I'll add the YouTube link now, thank you.

In that case, I apologize for misinterpreting that statement. Perhaps a solution could be to remove the persons role in the site from every post, basically, only list it in their profile.

A Publisher is assumed to always be an editor anyway (If not just an advancement of the editor rank), so that's one way to circumvent that.

The purpose of the clash rank would be to keep have both a site (staff) contribution indicator as well as the usual TAS contribution part of the rank.
What's the purpose of a separate indicator?
If a Publisher made a TAS and it got published, you wouldn't be able to immediately tell just by looking at their forum title. Having segregated ranks alleviates this.

1. For a 4-megabit game, it's mediocre at best. The music is earbleedingly painful, and looking at it for too long hurt my eyes. (Though that could just be due to me trying not to blink.)
Hacking around in the game (I do hang around more then Shining Force you know) reveals that there is a reason it is so large... they literally duplicated everything in the game for each act/zone (There was enough duplication to make me not bother getting a specific count). That, and there is a hunkload of unused stuff, including a speed shoes monitor, just why the hell did they have to make that unused!
