2 Things not mentioned in the submission text.
Firmeware Settings has been changed. Just the Nickname field: Adeal
Advanced Bus-Level Timing has been disabled.
Both indicated by the movie file, not the author.
Edit: Author has since updated the submission text to mention those 2 bits.

Spike made a mistake
Spikestuff didn't make a mistake, since Spikestuff cannot provide the movie with Stars at his rank for a reason to begin with.
This is normal and has happened in the past with all Star publications that cannot be Stared by literally almost everyone except feos since feos is a Starman.
(I'm ignoring probably a few others that have star privileges but feos is usually my goto for this.)

Heh, the hack gets a 100% before the Vanilla.
>When your backup doesn't want want to be publisher to this movie.
Oh... I guess this is mine...
NoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooEdit: Correction, they thought it wasn't a different more Dolphin-y TAS.
I'll vote when the YouTube encode comes through based on the assumption it's a single video compared to the bilibili one.

http://tasvideos.org/802M.html The Biker Mice From Mars TAS, as I've already stated, uses an in-game code that 'allows me to start at the last (sixth) round of at the Championship mode with Vinnie, at difficulty level 'Super Hard'. It also gives me fully upgraded 'Engine'-parts and 'Shot'-parts.'
That TAS should have never been accepted imo. We may make some mistakes in the past that lead to movies being published that shouldn't have. These movies do not qualify as precedents.
I'm pretty sure the last time Bike Mice from Mars was used as a point of argument it was used cause it was against the ideas that it skipped a large portion of the game, and upgraded the bike to max stats and a more vanilla approach would be much needed.
If that Biker TAS was submitted under today's standards it would be rejected even though it is entertaining. You can use this Top Gear as a point of reference on that one (Besides the fact it was subopitmal at points).

Then why not encoding all movies at 32K resolution, since some day 32K monitors will be commercialized?
Sure, why the hell no-- oh wait, we're currently limited to 16k on YouTube for that.
(even though it displays 8k as a setting cause the feature isn't implemented correctly cough)
But hang on what's this behind your ear. Downloadables!? Gasp
This was the point I was facing toward cause noshitsherlock YouTube only supports 60fps like everyone knows, but what does Downloadables support? Whatever fps and Whatever Res.
The only thing that'll bottleneck is the amount of memory that encoder/publisher has for PC downloadables.
My point's still valid under the case of downloadables (especially when I mentioned selectable video source which you blatantly ignored).

Since there are no PC monitors able to display beyond 240 fps
Hang on, you're missing a few words.
"...for the time being."
After all, 240hz monitors only just hit the market if I'm not mistaken last year. Otherwise your sentence would've said 144hz/fps if that wasn't introduced.
For a future proof case scenario why not just go balls to the walls and go maximum possible at all cases and provide secondary and tertiary as a selectable video source?
We have the resources to do this for PC games.

You don't, since Hawk doesn't support that function for Saturnus yet.
Go check the core the emulator is based on; mednafen to see if it has mouse support.

Just for the sake of it.
I'd like the reverse guide of that.
Also if you weren't accustomed to the original (TASEditor) then boy you're in for a treat if you dove head first.

YouTube's going to compress it in the long run but the encoders use qp 5/7/10 depending on the encoder (lower the number the higher the filesize).
If you don't want to tamper with that just use the default crf 15.

A speed-oriented movie must beat all existing records
If your movie is going to beat something, be sure it beats it.
If your tool-assisted movie is not faster than the non-tool-assisted world record for the same game, aiming for the same goals, your movie will be rejected.
The movie's technical quality must be acceptable
Don't be lazy. We will try and beat your movie. We should hopefully not succeed. See the Guidelines on how to make a movie that meets the site's standards.

Do you know who does NDS encodes? Still one of the few systems capable of high res emulation that we don't have high res encodes for.
Yeah, that's banned cause the HiRes is complete garbage since it can't get certain effects working.
TL;DR: feos placed it in 3 publications (2015) ,adelikat caught wind of it. Not allowed.
(Same reason for the PSXjin version of this, which is even worse since it does incorrect transparency.)Encoders Corner is a great place to check if you're going to ask questions like that.
Special case here since a new topic was made recently which was then pointed to the post that said it became banned.

perhaps there should be a category only for bot players, with bot judges
Well in that case if it was done by an actualdecentbot this TAS would be rejected straight up.
Especially since this one is generational learning instead of brute force.

Happy April Fools Day everyone, right?
Look at the calendar
It's April somewhere in the world I guess?
Hmm, maybe Universe might make sense since then if a day like April Fools exists somewhere in the Universe then maybe, just maybe...

Deliberately using the QuickNES core cause it's "faster" than accurate (NESHawk)?
So the purpose of using a core that is worse (which seriously needs the bucket kicked off the multicore by now) was just cause it loaded up a frame (well two, since restart) faster.
Well you want to know the good news, those crying out for "accuracy dammit!"?
The movie syncs with the more accurate core.
I'd argue for the sake of emulation to use the more accurate core at all times. This is one of those times.
Overall this is still a Yes in my books, short sweet.
Wished I had a translation on that YouTube video... and that I won't have to rely on Google Translate.
And actually hoped you used the better core instead of using something worse for gain.

^ Also do it by 2's so 200%, 400%, 600% etc.
It's going to look 1:1 tho not 4:3.
So do another Resize Filter and Select "Compute height from ratio" and make the value that went down (y value) be 100% since the x needs to be changed in that bit.
Also for this bit use Lanczos3.
