Also, the revert to the new rating system doesn't address the real problem, which is a new era of voters who are not keen on the subject of being critical.
I think what we need here is some sort of "voting" test. Hell, why not a test to watch movies in the first place? This would be a good way to keep people like jimsfriend away (damnable monkey brained fool).

I give this idea a 3.298 on entertainment, and 6.74993 on technical.

You can still mess up the ratings here you know: http://tasvideos.org/rating.exe/my/1248 ;P

Plus the NES version is, I believe, the last "official" cart they made for the system... makes me all teary-eyed.

Yay more Lua! I wanted it for VBA for something, if only I could remember now :P

Well I will be sure to add it to Gruefood Delight :) I also want to make a Lua script that will be a much shortened "walk through" of the game's interesting points. Like the bug splat. And, um, the sun setting?

I just referenced 1:50 as a point that looked good vs 1:56 that looked suspicious. But you have a good reason as I thought you might :D I would be interested in seeing a full run, assuming it isn't obscenely long.

Kind of boring, though the moving through the house in first person fast and then insta-killing the boss was neat. Not sure how long you spent recording -- some parts looked a bit unoptimal. For example, at 1:50 in the youtube you walk directly against the wall. At 1:56, you go up further than it appears you have to (of course there might be a reason for this but it caught my eye).

Well, if taken literally, ONE person cannot physiologically complete this run. You cannot pause the game (even between "levels"), and you have to sleep at some point. That said, 2 or more people could definitely do it -- I hope the folks at desertbus.org step up to the plate and get 99 points someday :D

"Finally, I get to the final boss room where I use a trick to make the fight a LOT faster." I'm afraid to see what it looks like unassisted. :S Other than the final boss, a really engaging run. It helps that the game makes NO sense.

http://tasvideos.org/EmulatorResources/Using.html#ResumingRecording Basically, play your movie, make sure it isn't in read-only mode, load a state and you will be recording from that state. Good luck!

I can't wait to watch this and give it a 10|10 I'll have to see if I still have any save files, but if you keep pushing yourself forward with the bushes eventually you wrap down to the bottom of the screen. One time, this resulted in turning into a tank.

Thanks for all the cheery replies. Thanks especially to Bisqwit for manually adding it as a "true" submission... which brings up 2 points: 1. There were 60 rerecords: about 50 for doing the intro, and 10 for various stopping/starting/restarting. So about 1 rerecord per 17 hours. 2. I can't do arithmetic and will have to update my manually hacked in length in the title. Some spotty replies, sorry I didn't bother to quote anyone: DarkKobold: Your post is pure genius. You're a lit major, right? Undie: No joke here, I submitted this on 3/31 local time. I didn't even get the bit about Wikipedia until I saw Derakon's post. The internet is a frightening, frightening place. Samsara: I would watch the LP, but I'm sure the commentary would ruin the pristine experience. System Error: You're on! Where do you live? Bisqwit: I can never tell if you're being sarcastic... I would at least like to make an edited, youtube-able version. If anyone would like to help I'd appreciate it... Kyrsimys: 1000 hours isn't arbitrary, it's 4 digits! 4! upthorn and Mr. Pwnage: Definitely Blue Sphere next. Definitely. Raiscan and other Wikipedia comments: If someone changes it, you might mention it only takes about 33 days to get to 99 points, not 41. Kirkq: Good luck finishing it. Does this mean it actually syncs for people? adelikat: Good idea. I'll record and verify it in real time while I'm at it. Expect an update in 2024. Also, someday I hope to complete another "real" movie :D

For the record I don't think we should have more movies "to provide a database of how fast each and every game ever can be beaten", but because I think some of the movies that get rejected are in fact entertaining movies that should be provided. Front Line entertains me, so sue me.

IMO this song sampling Tiny Dancer is awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDDdpxEf9hM Sample starts around 1:45 if you want to skip some of the cussing.
