Fwiw, this game had various ports also developed by Ocean Software. I am curious to see if the same deathwarp bug is in those ones.

I've played this game on NSO, but didn't get too far. Super glad to it TASed!

Saved 34 frames over the current pub in Monkey Cage (where you have to tranquilize the security) by adding some damage boosts. I haven't resynced the rest of the TAS yet though. Will get around to it. https://youtu.be/puOsJ910ZYo Edit: As I’m watching the pub, I think I’m noticing a few areas that could use more damage boosts. I’d like to try to see if I can optimize this sometime.

Most of the times in this TAS are slower than their RTA WR counterparts in CyberScore: https://cyberscore.me.uk/games/1029

All of the minigames in this TAS are slower than the fastest known RTA records on CyberScore: https://cyberscore.me.uk/games/1361

Saved 315 frames in only Hexagon Force by implementing both the HF skip and a new one exclusive to this mode. I think this could still be improved. Edit: Also the menuing is a bit weird. Instead of pressing start on the first possible frame on the result screen, the TAS turbos Start and A. I was able to somehow save a frame by just doing it normally. Edit 2: Saved more frames in Deadlocked by adding a new skip. The movie also isn't truncated properly and exits out to the menu. I got a time of 120692f, (120452 when truncated), improving this by 323f or 5.374s.

Those are decorations. They’re not supposed to kill you.

Happens to the best of us. I've done it before.

The game I'm TASing has an intermission cutscene every 10 levels. It cannot be skipped. This game has a password save system though. Could I soft-reset and use a password to skip the intermission? Or should I leave the cutscene in the TAS? It should be worth noting that (as far as I know), you can only see this password after the cutscene.

Oh yeah, I think I see the route you’re talking about now.

I think this can still be improved. I tried out stage 3 and saved 8 frames by doing this route.

Haven't looked into the optimization of these, but wanted to list them off in case I forget in the future: #5948: Jigwally's GBA Who Wants to Be a Millionaire Junior in 03:25.75 #6393: EchoedMelodies's GBA Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 03:19.84 These aren't technically rejected, but I still think they're worth looking over again since they were cancelled due to game choice.

Correction in the submission notes. Green spikes are fake spikes. They're supposed to not kill the player.

Low chance someone will actually find this, but I remember I was a fan of this one Flash(?) racing game. First person view. One of the tracks was like a wooden roller coaster or something, with curves. Another game I remember is this game where you use spray paint on a wall to solve puzzles or something. It was on AddictingGames iirc but I can’t find it anymore. I think it had “graffiti” in the title, but the results aren’t what I remember.

Were you able to do Hexagon Force skip, the last Deadlocked wave skip, the Fingerdash wave skips, or the final Dash skip?

Do I really have to "provide a specific reasoning"... As I said, no TASer would like their work being ignored for a long time, or waiting endlessly to get a verdict.
I’m a TASer, and I’m perfectly fine with waiting. You do not speak for me or for every TASer.

Then don’t. I don’t see why you need to do that, especially since you don’t like to do it.

And? I also have a submission that's been New for over two months. You don't see me complaining about it.

It's already cancelled, but it is worth mentioning that (assuming this isn't a playaround) this is slower than the Deadlocked segment in my submission, as this run doesn't skip any speed portals.

I have also noticed the extra card being drawn on some hands, but wasn’t sure what to do about it. Awesome job!

I'd highly recommend joining the Mario Party speedrunning server. There are quite a lot of people who are knowledgeable in Mario Party 9, and they can probably help you with what you need: https://discord.com/invite/0hwVJZ5USYlGkZre

The forum post I linked says that you can manipulate CPU dice rolls by changing which frame you hit your block. Are you sure you have tried this?
