until I came to appreciate the lives/hitpoints being a finite allotted resource, putting the player at risk and/or another disadvantage (like losing a current weapon) for a potential benefit of saving time. This requires research to see where and how it can help, and I came to see it as a valid technique for the reasons stated.
And I think the reset button is one of the input keys, with games supposed to be designed to handle it in certain way. The key just is not located physically in the same place as the other inputs, but it is still an input button.
I finally got my project online! I present to you, NESBot. It is hosted on Instructables as a part of a microcontroller contest. The contest ends on Sunday, and I'm hoping I could get some votes for me to win from the people who made it possible. Maybe? :) (Note, I have no idea how voting works yet, I just submitted my entry, but if you guys figure it out it would be greatly appreciated. Maybe by rating the guide it counts as a vote?) The guide describes how to build it, but not so much how it works. If you guys would like I could get a more detailed description on that up.
I didn't actually know about that. Pretty bummed if that's how it is. :\
but I really hope the run will be published and obsolete the old one. I have tried to make a lot of TASes that abuse word recognition program, besides Brain Age run. I wasn't able to find any game that recognize a detailed drawing as a correct answer. If many people want a quick paced run, then you can make a TAS of any game that you can abuse word recognition program. But other than Brain Age, there is nothing that can recognize a detailed drawing as a word. (At least it is almost impossible to make a run like Brain Age TAS with other famous game.) IMO, quick paced run should be done in another game.
The rules are clear: Write in english or GTFO. A lot of people here aren't native english speakers, but here we are anyway. They don't come because they don't want to.
