Thanks for the comparison video, mtvf1. It's very helpful indeed.

0 for tech for this movie also seems off IMO. Just my two cents.

Hm, let's apply E.T. Yes voters' logic: "So short it's entertaining. Sure it's a bad game, but it's also infamous, and will draw so many people to the site. Bad game does not equal bad game choice. Yes vote for the reasons provided."
Your strawman might have the slightest bit of a point if this game was anywhere near as popular or notorious as E.T.

Try it, do a couple stages of it, upload the fm2 here and post it in this thread, and check out what people think of it. An important tip: Don't rush your work. Take your time to make it look good.

The rules quite clearly state that cheats are not allowed, especially not when the sole purpose is to skip to one of the final stages. That put in mind, why should there be any reason to accept this category for this game?

Masterjun, my goal would have to be "fastest level 100", or something similar.
A better category would be "fastest level overflow", to the point where the game returns to level 00. That's less arbitrary than "level 100". That said, such a category wouldn't be publishable material anyway, because the run would be quite long, several times longer than "fastest 999999", and it wouldn't add that much to the existing published material. It would, however, still be quite an interesting run, if you do decide to make it.

From what I've seen, if Romney were to get in office, it would be for the benefit of nobody except the rich people who get more money but don't really need it. At least Obama cares the slightest bit about the rest of the people in the country. I've noticed Obama has been getting a lot of flak for not having much done during the past years, but I think much of that has to do with worldwide issues (economic etc.) and the fact that the Republicans in Congress are doing everything to their power to stop Obama's plans from getting anywhere. That said, even if Obama would be a poor president, he's still the best option the Americans have, in my opinion. Of course, I don't live in the United States, so I can't say I know everything about what's going on there.

Because they appear to have issues, after you have submitted them. I recommend that next time, you post your works-in-progress in the forum instead, rather than in the submission queue.

The two played characters lacked interesting movement dynamics, instead often just opting to move exactly the same way, and generally very little variety. It didn't feel like a proper two-player TAS. Also, the fights got repetitive real fast. Practically every opponent was beaten the same way. The monotonous player movements didn't help much either. Voting no.

Two different people submitting two different runs of the same game, with the same frame count, with very similar methods, on the same day? What are the odds?

I think about all time saved is from switching
Note that it's stated in the Movie Rules that text differences between languages do not count towards obsoleting a movie.
Movie Rules wrote:
Keep in mind that time gained solely through basic ROM differences will be discounted for the purpose of comparison. This includes:
  • time gained through shorter cutscene text and speech boxes due to Japanese writing being more compact;
[*]differences in title screen, cutscenes, and menus (unless menus are the game's main control interface).[/list] Only actual gameplay improvements will be considered. For example:
  • there's a published movie made on a (U) ROM;
  • the title screen for this game takes 100 frames less on a (J) ROM;
  • a movie made on a (J) ROM is submitted, that is 101 frames faster than the movie made on a (U) ROM.
The improvement to be judged in this example is just 1 frame; the 100 frame gain from a shorter title screen is discounted. It is up to the author to do the math and elaborate upon the version differences during the submission process. The more information you present, the easier it will be to judge your movie.
If there is no improvement, then this movie cannot be accepted to obsolete the other run. (In fact, you stated that you lost time due to luck manipulation, which means it would comparison-wise be slower than the published run. This definitely means it can't be accepted.) This also applies for the other run you submitted.

As with the other run you submitted, how much time did you save from JPN/USA text differences?

How much time was saved by text differences (due to switching from USA to JPN)? This could be an important factor in judging this run, comparing it to the previous run.

I'm pretty sure that's what already happened with Mega Man Battle Network. It got all the way past the ~65535 byte barrier, beyond 1.5 times that limit. I'm guessing that one overflew all the way to positive again. Then again, if it'll be several times that size, I have no idea what kind of quirky stuff could happen.

The actual problem is that Nahoc doesn't want to judge it, and the other judges don't want to touch Dolphin.

Is this close enough to the truth? "In this movie I tried to make the fastest time possible, although they can be overcome. As a character, I chose Agumon.

The minimum time is 90 seconds per battle, which you have to wait to finish the fight. The exception is the final boss, Millenniummon, with which you have a limited number of red orbs, which have lost none, and have a time limit to defeat him, four minutes, of which only needed 44 seconds to defeat, ending the film." - Google Translate

I know, as I did a small test run before. :P What I meant is to obtain as much of the enemies orb within the time limit. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Ah, I see, thank you for clearing that up. Getting a max amount of orbs probably seems like a better choice of goal, but I think it would lead to repetitive strategies, much like fighting games going for fastest time. Personally, I don't think this game makes for publishable TAS material, unless someone could make a really good and entertaining playaround. I don't expect that to happen, though.
