I honestly think the current site is fine. The new one is simply sensory overload and looks totally cluttered.
Then again, I'm biased against "web 2.0" stuff since I think it's nasty.
watched it, and I cant do an other thing than give it a big YES.
I will encode it for youtube, I think that there are much people who would love to see this but doesn't has a good Mario NES rom to patch.
I didn't like this as much as the original. Even though you added a lot of weird weird stuff in Chocolate Island, the fact that you omitted so much from the first run is disappointing. If you want a publishable run, you've gotta do it ALL.
I'm sorry, but the extent of your posts that I've seen have been nonstop negativity, even if they have been jokes. I rarely get so blunt as to tell someone to outright stuff it, but I kind of got irritated with it.
Kindly stop it please. :)
ANYWAYS ALSO, does anyone else have any other ideas of possible improvements? It would be nice to see something gamebreaking. :P
Genisto, would it be possible to include the coin bridge glitch involving hitting a coin block underneath the coin bridge, causing a solid block to form?
I swear if you use this "word" again I will throw you off a balcony

Uh, the point of the movie Transformers is also to entertain. Does that make the movie Transformers a TAS worthy of this site? (You are improperly using set theory BTW. TAS are in the set of things that entertain, does not mean things that entertain must be a TAS)
This is the dumbest thing I've heard in the last few months and I would respectfully request that you don't set up straw men in the future, thanks.

Uh, especially given the nature of this publication (hint, it is right next to a faster movie) the mood is already set, additionally by the description and submission text. You are almost insulting the intelligence of the viewer by thinking they need to have it explained that the time is not a factor.
Nope, wrong. Setting the mood of a run is not the same as making the goals known. Doing the silly non-superhuman things like chasing girls establishes the silliness of the TAS. It's meant to be a goofy little thing that makes you crack a little grin and lightens you up a little bit for when the actual cool, superhuman stuff starts to happen. If you don't find the little silly things to be entertaining, then this TAS isn't for you, just like a speed run of a game you hate also isn't for you.
I'm not entirely sure what your qualm is. Entertainment IS a CLEAR and OBJECTIVE goal; it's the interpretation on whether or not it was achieved that is the debate.
As for time wasters, well... that's really not an issue here, is it?
Oh, and for those who vote no on the grounds of being familiar with most of the glitches, do keep in mind that most of the videos produced on this site are seen by people who do NOT know about these glitches. This video does a good job of showing off a lot of them along with many "what the fuck?!" moments. Again, it's all opinion, but understand the target audience here.
I'll have to vote meh. Although the run entertained me, I can't vote yes to a run that doesnt have a criteria set enough so that someone else could beat it. That's just unfair.
Not everything needs to be a competition. The Air video will never be "beaten" but did that stop anything?
And please no responses to Xkeeper's statement please.
There's nothing to comment on. I haven't watched the movie, I didn't find it stupidly pointless or anything else, I'm voting No just to be a jerk for Comicalflop.
I still think the idea behind this run is stupid, but there's no point in fighting the "must be as fast as possible go go go" mentality any more; it's been made obvious that's all this is now.
But yeah, whatever. I actually forgot the entire concept of what happene last time until you brought that up, heh.
Now, I think you're being dogmatic at this point. I mean, you didn't even watch it. This run cuts out a large portion of the Bad Stuff (DDD, namely) and changes around a lot of the strategy (BLJ locations, camera positioning, minor route tweaks), which keeps it fresh and interesting. You're entitled to your own opinion and I think the first time this fiasco came about, you were very justified, but now I think enough of the crap has been cut off to make it thoroughly entertaining.
That's just my opinion, of course.

Too Bad. (Alternate title: You Were Just Asking For It.)
Surprisingly enough, dkvine voted "Jib Jig" (the Riggings levels) as the best song in the game, though I'm pretty sure the majority won't argue that this is one of the best songs in any video game ever.
Interesting glitch but I much prefer watching a full game run with entertaining tricks and acrobatics. So meh.
It's fair that you vote meh, but keep in mind that "I prefer 100% runs so I'm going to vote meh because this isn't one" isn't the greatest of arguments. :P

He's just showing some thanks by making a little joke. :)
