Hey, Listen! (lol - sorry... I love that pic)
I can't believe I just read 17 pages of this. I also can't believe I haven't been back here for months - but it's finished! I remember reading the tons of pages on the WIP way back then... Congrats for not losing patience (or sanity) and completing it!
Still waiting on the download, but just wanted to point something out to the backwalking/item equipping discussion somewhere back around page 10. It's probably been brought up in IRC or on IM's before, but couldn't you make a really simple AutoIt script (once you had the timing down) to accomplish that? I do understand that super gliding probably makes the point moot, but I never really realized that it wouldn't really be *that* hard to write an input script like that and just run it, have it pick up off of frame advance so you wouldn't waste a frame. You could easily cut it off too when it got to the point you needed it to. I'd write a proof of concept but out of all the files/tools needed to try, the only one I've got at the moment is AutoIt.
Anyway, great job again and I can't wait to watch it after work tomarrow. =) Better drama between these two threads then most reality TV shows too, btw.
GB is working on a new version.. He's at the spirit temple and is more than 4 minutes ahead.

As for the bittorrent situation... rather than have nach seeding the torrent, alone, with his 1kb/s connection, it's more efficient for him to send the file to someone who has better bandwidth. This is due to the fact that when seeding a torrent, the connection may be split multiple ways, due to multiple connected users, and there is no guarantee that when he has sent 100% of the filesize that he will have sent 100% of the file.
The point is that he has to send it to someone anyway, so it mine as well be however many people at once so that they are all able to send it to others right away.
Also, his connection is 12 kb/s, but is only devoting 4kb/s to the torrent.

Where is the nearest Yoshi? I'm thinking: Get the cloud in inventory, go down a near pipe and return, use the cloud but get another before left+right glitching through the wall, go through the wall etc. etc., break a tape in a world and then fall to your death. This puts you in the empty doooooom hole I found, but with a cloud in the inventory. Go to some other stage (the movie provided in an earlier post only gives boo tower, the last boo world, and all of the star worlds as options, one of them star world ones would have to be opened up if no other Yoshi is found) and grab a Yoshi, and return to the doom hole. Free the cloud from the inventory there and jump off of the Yoshi into the cloud. Explore!
I just ripped it from JXQ and Fabian's SDW run.. if you need the entrance to any other levels I can provide them.

If you get the key exit in the Forest, the path from Big Boo World 6 to the level below it activates.. which is interesting..
Also, that powerup block weirdly transports you to earlier in the level with a graphical glitch on the first pit..

SMAdvance2 IS SMW, but, then again, maybe it's a teaser for a Super Demo-fied Mario Allstars 2 ;)
Meh, probably not. That sure is an interesting debug area, I mean, it was definitely PUT there...
--Gah!! When I died in the Forest of Illusion stage, it said 'Time up!' for the death, sure, but now when I try to go back into Big Boo Secret, I just come to an empty room and fall to my death (Time Up! again as well...). The other levels work fine though, but going back to the Secret again still makes me doooooomeed.
Yeah if you stop pressing left+right while travelling through the wall, you die and it's Time Up. Hmm.

I suggested we stop derailing the thread. You ignored it and continue to reply. I tried once, and I'm not going to have you get the last word in unless it's an admittal of defeat. Unless we agree to stop, nothing short of mod intervention will cease this discussion.
Edit: Or continue it, by moving it. :o
A third option, perhaps (move it to a locked thread). Although this now has a different title, it shouldn't be in the N64 forum, much less in the Mission: Impossible thread.
I could argue this discussion shouldn't be in any forum at all, but why bother when Zurreco's around?
Shhh. :P

But I'm having fun. We're having a legitimate argument! My only regret is derailing this thread, but HiddenGamer refuses to desist.
Either do you, don't blame this on me, you started by breaking the rules and then making an excuse for it. You keep replying to me and I keep replying to you, so if its anything its both of our faults, but I say its yours because you started flamming. So don't blame this on me.

It is the other way around, believing that there isnt a God is just ignorant. There is no way we would be existance if there wasnt. Things just don't happen by themselves.
I never said there wasn't a god. Maybe I didn't explicitly state it, but I certainly alluded to the fact that our gods are not the same.
Also, have you heard of evolution?
Yes, I have, but you are taking the part where it says "THEORY OF EVOLUTION" Plus, evolution teaches that we we started out as dust in space or something and evolved but thats impossible. If we start out as 3 month baby we would not survive without a parent. What it teaches in the Bible is that God made man, animals, stuff like that. Which has more meaning about our life and truth.
The human race wasn't created out of nothingness.. hence, evolution. Though you don't state that, you allude to it by specifically referring to having no parents.

No , I'm not talking my god. I'm talking about thee God, cause there is only one God and eventually we are all going to be judged.
You cannot state that there is one true god for all to be judged under. Doing so is erroneus and, quite truthfully, a statement of arrogance and ignorance. Neither of us could ever be right about this subject, so how about we stop derailing this thread?

I don't need to tell anything to your god.
Edit: The statement was a conditional one. Although it includes you, it wasn't directed specifically at you. Though I could see how it was misconstrued. You're not getting an apology though.

YOur reply was right after my reply. Therefore actually then you flammed two people , the one guy above me too. You don't need to specifically tell someone, but your reply did show you meant us two.

Not as punishment for having a terrible computer, but because you are an inferior human being.
Since your reply was right after my reply and you used the word "you" then it does mean you were talking to me.
Plus , even if it wasnt a rule, you still think its cool to insult people that don't have things and are less forntuante then you are?
"You" is widely accepted and is common practice to mean "anyone".
Also, did you consider that I might have posted in the wrong topic? I was just stating what I believe to be fact.
In addition, the belief that a person is valued by the amount and overall worth of their possessions is one that I hold dear. I apologize it offends you, but it's not going to change.
