Here's a as-of-now complete list of trick categories that we're looking for a game to fit in case someone was about to speak up for their game. -Movement tricks -Efficient Combat -Luck Manipulation -A.I. Abuse (as separate from luck manipulation) -Taking damage (mainly damage boosts, invulnerability abuse...) -Death Abuse -Going Out of Bounds & Skipping Triggers -Abusing Faulty Game Logic (e.g. assuming being at B implies you did A so if you can skip A it's still assumed you've done it; also e.g. you're facing left so the game assumes it needs to eject you towards the right enabling entering the wall) -Pausing-related Tricks & Save/Load Tricks -Zone-hopping -Overlapping Events.
I think Aglar's Sonic the Hedgehog 2 TAS features at least one example of most of those kinds of tricks.

I liked this run because Metallica is part of my soul. When I grow up, I want to be like you, Aqfaq.

I have found a trick: If you press forward while not being against an obstacle, you move to the right.

Well, the run is amazingly optimized and very entertaining to compensate for it. This doesn't mean I wouldn't enjoy a long overdue submission text expansion, though. :)

I can't remember why I registered on the site, but I wouldn't be surprised if this topic posted by Comicalflop in another forum was the reason, since I signed up around that time.

What's your fb, honey? You are Hungarian, aren't you? Isn't Hungary the cradle of porn star actresses? ;) If you don't have fb, do you have a few last four credit card numbers to spare?

I don't know them, they don't do my chores, they don't pay my bills, so I don't have a single reason to give them importance. They're as important to me as the trash I dispose from my home regularly.
What if they paid your bills? P.S.: I'm catwoman.

What a nice surprise! I enjoyed it a lot and can't think of a more slanted TAS. Thank you! I think this would be a good screenshoot to use (it's of low quality because I'm at work):

Heihachi desynced. :) Liked the run. Loved the last "fight". Good job.

I'm currently finishing the game in 4932 frames without a few new founds I discovered by randomly mashing buttons (and watching lua script) and speed controlling is a bit slow progress. So I'm going to make a new movie file and of course upload the 4932 frame long for this publication if you want to publish the movie until I complete the TAS from the beginning...
So, are you working on a new movie of this game or would you say this TAS is optimized to the best of your ability?
MESHUGGAH wrote:
so, 8 frames improved in the beginning, got new coathor and entertainment will be redone... Cancel the movie and resubmit it, right?
After looking at this poll's result, I don't think a new submission is necessary. Eight frames of improvement and the changes to entertainment wouldn't make a significant difference in the outcome of a hypothetical new poll. By the way, I think the screenshot for this improvement's movie entry should feature the credits, but I guess that's not happening... :(

So, let me get this straight: You have no compelling arguments for why screenshots after the final input shouldn't be used beyond "because it's what publishers normally do"?

We, meaning the publishers and all of us who like to follow site rules and guidelines instead of constantly vying for exceptions.
Making up fallacies won't help your stance or make you look any better. Anyway, we can argue about this all that you want, but please use private messaging from now on.

Meh, I guess it's time to fight pedantry with pedantry. -_-

Zeupar wrote:
Are you completely sure about that? Is that stated anywhere?
Maybe it's not a rule listed anywhere, but there has been some discussion about it (here, for example), and it seems at least a couple of publishers (the ones who put up the screenshots) believe it should be from the movie file.
What two publishers? I only see one sharing your pedantic stance (that being ThatGugaWhoAgree, no less!). Anyway, don't you think coming up with good arguments for why screenshots shouldn't be taken after input (especially in this particular case) would be better than "HERP DERP, 2 publizeups agre with mah so imma r8, even thought dem 'proof' i Linc don't back it up"?
Also, a screenshot needs to follow these guidelines:
* Pick a screenshot that represents the movie or the game well. * It should give an idea of the genre of the game and the movie to an audience who doesn't know the game. * If the movie is atypical to the game (a highly glitched movie for example), the screenshot should display something atypical happening, but without conflicting with the earlier guidelines.
I'm well aware of those guidelines. Plenty of published movies feature screenshots I have suggested. Hell, I even created this page. Do I really need to list exceptions that have been made to every one of those points?
We don't want a screenshot that requires knowledge of the previous run to understand.
It doesn't. It's not necessary to be impressed by that screenshot. Just look at the second rectangle closely. By the way, I recommend you being careful when using sentences starting with "we don't want".

As good as that frame would be for a screenshot, a publication screenshot has to be from the movie itself.

Those two quotes don't compute. Do you think it would be good or not? I'm confused. :/
I suggested 3928 because an item menu is typical of an RPG, and glitched graphics are typical of a highly glitched movie, so I feel it represents both the game and the movie well, especially to those who aren't familiar with the game (but can tell that those tiles aren't supposed to be there).
Yeah, and it's also typical to use Pokémon screenshots displaying garbled graphics. In fact, it's so typical it's pretty boring at this point.

In this case, I would fully support using the "geting even better" screenshot, as it 1) shows that the game has been beaten in 0 minutes, which is enough to attract the attention of someone with a passing knowledge 2) shows a different Pokedex completion message than any other SRAM glitch video, which is enough to attract the attention of those familiar with previous SRAM glitch runs 3) to top it off, contains a meta-reference to the goal of TASVideos itself, and has a strange typo to boot
Thank you very much for that list. You saved me some time. I thought the merits of my suggestion were evident, but apparently some people are too focused on being nitpicky to look at images. Anyway, I feel bad for turning this awesome run's discussion thread into this shit, so I won't post here anymore.

Are you completely sure about that? Is that stated anywhere? In any case, exceptions to every rule can and will be made. I would like to think this site isn't so stupidly pedantic about such a minor detail.

So you have broken this game even further? I didn't expect it at all, so this has been a nice surprise. Also, I really like the fact this run was done on Pokémon Red Version. I suggest this screenshot:
