Wonderful TAS with so many small optimizations that are hard to notice. Thanks for taking the time to do a commentary, it made the run that much more interesting. Yes vote

A solid effort with enough clever optimizations to keep me entertained and surprised. Have a yes vote

Amazing job. Seriously though, I don't think there's a single game as suitable for TASing as Gimmick!, as always it's so entertaining to watch. Easiest yes vote ever

Meh vote for novelty and optimization I guess? At least it's only a minute.

This is a beautiful TAS, seriously. I loved the optimization and was entertained throughout. That underflow was nice, but I thought Labrynth 1 was even more impressive for its movement. And kudos for what you did with bridge 2. The whole "showing off how many times you can almost die" thing in autoscrollers gets old. Nice minimilistic and humorous inputs. Oh yeah and before I forget, yes vote

An incredible TAS, even without taking into account how "optimal" Mukki's run was. Thank you for the great watch and yes vote!

I think this should be published strictly for novelty. Made me laugh, yes vote

This TAS is the perfect length, the run is completed long before it starts to get repetitive, let alone mundane. You can tell a lot of thought was put into finding the optimal solution. Interesting and entertaining, yes vote from me

Whether it's accepted or not, this was a very entertaining watch. Obviously some work went into this run. Yes from me, but it's a tough category to judge for sure

I'm not sure if I was entertained more by the new zips or by the hilarious "killing time" input at the end of every stage. Yes vote

Impressive TAS with a lot of varied gameplay! It's a shame it's broken up by special stages, soft resetting, chao collection dialogue, and the credits... But I have nothing against the run itself, really good work and a yes vote from me

I'm glad I noticed the note on the cloud glitch before asking about why that wasn't used. Considering how far this branch has come, it was refreshing to see so many surprises. Didn't see SW3 coming at all. Outstanding TAS

Did I just watch an entertaining Ice Climber speedrun? Yes vote. Loved the collision abuse to bounce the climbers higher, it's not unbearably long and has just enough surprises. In favor for moons (weakly), though I'm probably biased having experienced how brutally hard and slow this game plays.

it's also to be noticed the zelda community has a lot of space for storing and holding these notable achievements on their own with sites like zeldaspeedruns and others,in which they hold all the categories they find interesting to run,and aren't any of our business.
If anything I'd concede to agree with grassini in this being more suitable for some of these runs. I think the counterarguments for not posting this are legitimate as well, I suppose I'm only miffed that some well made and highly enjoyable TASes don't make it to this site and then fade into obscurity, while some very monotonous ones make their way to the vault. (And to an extant moons)

Aiming for the fastest possible time is never arbitrary.
I did not intend or even expect to sway, change, or otherwise alter the established and well reasoned movie publication guidelines this community has through trial and error instituted. The aforementioned reasoning, that TASing is fundamentally arbitrary before the goal choice is even selected, is perhaps valueless opinion. I do highly appreciate that TASvideos' standards have kept this site's content of utmost quality, but think that entertaining and technical TASes with somewhat random goal choices should be afforded a little more consideration.

In favor of this movie and others like it in categorical choice (In its completion of a game under various restrictions, making the completion itself a technical feat) for the following reasons: This TAS is of high technical and entertainment quality The fact that we make TASes is itself arbitrary, whether we choose to aim for speed, or anything else using precision tools The acronym for this site literally stands for tool-assisted superplays, not for tool-assisted speedruns

I remember your first TAS of this game from a while back. Even though the game might not jump out at you as an obvious TAS choice entertainment-wise, there was something I liked about it. It seemed pretty optimal, so it's great to see you come back and slash off nearly half a minute from it. Good stuff and yes vote

Both TASes are pretty close, aren't they? Well, an optimized version of this shortcut should help the echidna come victorious.
And suddenly Sonic is relegated to suboptimal character, that would be amazing.

Always fantastic to see substantial improvements to an already high caliber run. Yes votes don't come much easier than this.

That's the first time I've gawked at the submission list in months, I had to watch this immediately. The TAS never seems like a regular human could be playing it for more than 2 seconds, so it gets my enthusiastic yes vote. What's most enjoyable is how stylishly and easily it plays through a fairly difficult game.

I'm not sure what or where the settings are... unless the boxes that are currently checked "bind savestates to movies" and "automatically backup movies" count as settings. I believe I would be using the default recording settings.

Thank you so much! My WIP is up. Do you have any idea what the cause of those duplicates is?

Alright I gave it a shot, hope this isn't getting annoying yet, I'd just like to know why this isn't working. http://www.mediafire.com/view/84eea3u9e6sz0b7/Wario_Land_3_
