Jenga is a board game? RIP
This is actually something I did some research into when I judged this movie. It turned out that yes, Jenga is indeed commonly categorized as a board game.

I've split off a hugely derailed flame fest about adding sonicpacker's YouTube encode to the publication, as homerfunky had requested (which I've done a while ago).

That looks correct. The "The End" screen is skipped quite quickly, after which the game returns to the hub that you're seeing there.

No need to wonder when you can just look at it. Not that this is something to compete/find offense over. I am simply using it as evidence for what the correct scenario for this situation would be, which is rightfully linking to my upload, as homerfunky requested.

We have a policy of linking to an external YouTube encode instead of our TVC encode on request of the author, as long as the external encode conforms to publishing standards (which the senior publisher approved). We'll still have an encode on TVC, but the external one should be linked. I'd like to know Nahoc's reasons for stating otherwise.
@sonicpacker: There are mature and civil ways to handle this. Swear-filled raging rants towards Nahoc are not one of them.
EDIT: Also, I replaced the link in the publication to sonicpacker's encode.

The PSX port of the game has a menu glitch that allows the fortress stages to be selected without actually completing any of the maverick stages.
Nobody has TASed it because as far as I know the game didn't run in pcsx-rr and PSXjin (and PSXHawk is not a completed or approved emulator yet). It's also not a terribly interesting run, just slowly X-Bustering basically every boss in the game.

Spoiler for how this works:
This game is full of debug codes. Pressing 2P Start just brings up the end screen immediately. What an anticlimax, isn't it? Especially since the size of this spoiler text makes it seem way more complicated than it actually is. Yeah.
Voting no, too little Fist of the North Atlantic action.

If a snes9x v1.53 TAS can do it, I'd be quite surprised if the bsnes core couldn't.

EDIT: Also, going to announce here that me and Rolanmen1 are starting on a new Mega Man ZX TAS. The old run could use some more polish, and make use of some improvements like the small route change to B-3 and using Vent instead of Aile (to save on dialogue/cutscene time).
So… how did that go?
It went nowhere. I ran into big luck manipulation hurdles at the intro boss fight, got disinterested as a result, and didn't hold contact with Rolanmen1 for long.
Though it's at least nice to see there are some more improvements being found now. It gives a (potential) new run more of a purpose to be made.

what do you want us to say?i imagined it was a pure speedrun right from the start,the thread for the game said the original run was unoptimized andboring(but that was at a vaultless time ),i'm not really sure if i support this run.It may be published as a speedrun itself and we may let it be obsoleted later,i mean,why not?
i'm not suggesting to lower standards,i'm just saying it's good enough even if we categorically know it's not be the best.
I won't accept it as a speedrun, because upon watching, the run doesn't even aim for speed. It's just not a speedrun, and if we were to judge it a speedrun it would be way below optimization standards. Hence I'm saying the run could only be accepted as a playaround, but for that I need audience feedback on whether it is a worthy playaround.
@GoddessMaria: grassini is right in that this game is a beat 'em up, not a straight fighting game. Beat 'em ups are not scrutinized nearly as much, because they're generally more diverse and have more speed-related goals (movement, optimally clearing out waves) than just reducing the lifebar of the one person in front of you. This game is possibly still Vault material, but there's not much more the game can do about that.

The three episodes were all part of the one and same game. Just because the shareware version had only part of the game included doesn't change that fact. The shareware version was an incomplete version of the game.
Allowing only part of a game to be completed, and considered a full TAS on its own right, would be rather unusual and exceptional. Are there any other examples of this?

mtvf1, there isn't a requirement for starred TASes to be optimal. For example, TheYogWog's S3&K Knuckles Ring Attack is very far from optimized, but it still has a star due to entertainment level: http://tasvideos.org/2593M.html
It seems a little asinine though if we select that movie as a top quality run to showcase, when we know there is a run that's half a minute faster elsewhere.
