I think a Any% Run will be great to have along side the 100% run that Sami is doing. ^.^ This is one of the greatest games ever made, and it deserves to have both. :3 If memory serves right, you need 6-8 Jiggies and 80-90 Notes per stage, correct? Maybe less Notes. :3 I think it's a great idea. :3

I am afraid I am voting no on this TAS as well. I couldn't stand watching half of it. Needless to say it was so boring it almost put me to sleep in the first ten minutes. Sorry Bisqwit.

What about the people who can only read English? I vote for the English version, since it's the only language I can read. I've started losing interest in watching the SDA Secret of Mana run because I can't understand all of what's going on, due to it being in french or a similar language. I find Speed Runs more enjoyable when I can follow along.

I really doubt it would make an interesting TAS.

So there are currently TWO TASes being worked on I guess huh? Does that mean one is going to be a 100%, or are they both going to be minimal?

I tried letting it load for ten seconds. Still no luck. And I STILL don't know what you people mean by Multitab or Multitap.. -.- EDIT: Okay. I found it on my own in the Input Menu, and the movie is working now...

I wish I could give you a comment, unfortunately the video desyncs for me as well even though I am using the correct rom version. Unfortunately I don't understand anything about that Multitab or Multitap thing to correct it. There is a lot I don't understand about Emulators and TASing...

I myself rather enjoy the GBA Remake. And I don't think you actually get Stat Drops like in the SNES version. I always hated that. Have Cecil at a high Level, only to find out he can't do squat because his stats dropped like crazy. I think they fixed that in this version. ^^ Come to think of it, I wanna play it again. ^.^

Well, of course it's going to be fast with a Level 100 Nidoking. Unless that is a different TAS. ;3

I could not find the correct Rom version anywhere, but the one I used didn't desynch the Movie until the second Mother Brain fight. I gave it a Yes vote. :3

Ah, alright. I just remembered, Nincada is the Pokémon I'm refering to above. Ninjask is the one that increases it's speed. ;3

I never really trained a Wurmple to it's final Evolution. Beedrill are good. Although they don't get any decent attacks for a while...Playing on my actual GBA, I have a Level 16 Beedrill, and it's only worth while attacks are Fury Attack and Poison Sting. While my Butterfree has Confusion, Stun Spore, Tackle and Poison Powder. The only Bug Type that would probably be any use for a Speed Run, would be that Ninja Bug. It's gets a speed increase after every round in it's final evolved form. And if it's attack is any good, it could be one of the fastest TASes ever.

I can see how you would confuse Wurmple with Weedle. They are similar in the fact that they both start with Poison Sting. And they are both Worms. ;3

Could ya'll please start seeding the current Published No Warps TAs by JXQ? I haven't really had a chance to view it yet. ;3 Thank you. ^^ EDIT: I am saying thank you to the ONLY person who was seeding when I began. I just now got the video downloaded completely.

If you leave the whole base defenseless, be prepared to lose the level. Near the end of the thirty minutes, all of the Zerg Forces will attack in one final strike. I think in the PC version even if you beat all of the current forces, there were still about a hundred of them waiting to attack and lay waste to your base. It's been a while since I played though. I personally find it funny to watch the whole horde of them attacking a bunch of bunkers only to get mowed down by the Marines hiding in them, hehe. :3 Well. I don't have anything else to add really. ;3

Well, the starting Terran Campaign actually has a 30 minute stage. But it flies by like nothing de to constant Zerg attacks. Each attack force being bigger than the last. For that Level, I found blocking off the roads with Bunkers full of four Infantry each do the job well. All you have to remember is to repair the Bunkers damaged after each onslaught. I don't know if there are any other levels like that one. But otherwise, I think all of the levels are fairly short. When playing as the Zerg however, the biggest thing you have to worry about are those big ass Siege Tanks the Terran have. The Protoss are fairly easy, even with their Energy Shielding. Yes, you hit a PC game I have knowledge of somewhat, which has no real difference from the Playstation or N64 versions. xD You should at the most 6-10 Drones or whatever are used, to mine Minerals, and at least 3-6 mining Gases. Hydralisks are the only creatures you really have to look out for when going against the Zerg with the Protoss or the Terran. Otherwise they are all fairly weak, even the flyers. As the terran, your best bet is to combine Firebats with the Marines, and Snipers when you are able to get them. I don't have a lot of experience with the Protoss, except that Dragoons are well adapted at fighting just about anything, they will be good attack forces in large groups. That is all I have at the moment. ;3

While a One Player TAS will undoubtedly be several minutes longer than the current Two Player Tas, I think it would be interesting to see how the player would compensate for the absence of a second character. There is only one problem. There aren't a lot of ways to make a run for this Entertaining, the Two Player TAS is barely entertaining, sorry to say. The game is basically just a straight forward Zombie/Monster/Alien Survivor and Shooter where you have to rescue your neighbors. I have played this several times, but never beat it. I either got bored or just kept dying until I turned it off. ;3

Unfortunately I can never get those ZSNES Emulators to work right Saturn. Too bad you didn't wait until SNES9X, hehe. I tried watching the SDA run, but it's just confusing. Because then you have to memorize where to stop watching the main run and switch to the 100% segments. I'll just wait until a true 100% is made. ;3

So the Video actually exists? Where can I find it? Always wanted to see a 100% run.

Sami. I will only say this once, but I think I have before. :3 You are awesome! ^^ I have never seen this game played so Flawlessly, or so quickly in my life. ;3 You are definately going to blow the SDA Speed Run clear away. ^^ Keep up the excellent work. ^.^

I'm glad to see you are still doing this Sami. ^^ I am going to watch this new WIP now. 7:01 is an incredible achievement, even for a TAS! :3
