I demand this art be used in the publication encodes! I don't see the watermark though. If it's not there, a small note crediting the art author can be put in a logo. Also, since the site is called MEMEVideos after all, this run will be obsoleted when Sonic the Hedgehog 3CD & Knuckles & Knuckles is finally TASed.

How about this. First tried an emulator in 2008.

I've been working on a comparison script for 4.5 hours straight. And when it was ready for for inserting the values, I got a sudden overflow that cleared the file. It even utilized an external plugin to allow avisynth do a for loop. And it happened right before I decided to go to sleep. So that I could forget what was in the script. How fucking cute.

Probably emerald stage is what I confused with the bonus stages? The former doesn't look avoidable at all?

So internally it works like this? You grab 50 regular rings, then the big ring, and automatically turn super/hyper instead of entering the bonus level? I really don't know the game that much.

If you don't push down 5x in a row then the remaining ones appear as X's. For every five of these you get, one "power" lights up, and for every "power" you get, your opponent is stunned further. If you react too late you may only get 1 or 3 objects appearing. They may be exclamation marks, circles, or bowling pins. --50 points for each time you push left after getting a power up and freezing your opponent's action. This may become 100 on higher levels, but it never goes above 1000/2200 depending on the opponent. --400 points per second for winning each fight, in increments of 40 points --50000 points for catching the money bag(after fights 2 and 5)

Doesn't look like a limited collectable resource to me.

Thanks. Can you clarify what marzo meant about Super and Hyper transformation being possible in more places?

To be fair, I myself have come to consider the "no horizontal underflow" goal choice a bit arbitrary, even in the context of the old 100% Sonic run. Were I to do the run today, I would instead require that Super or Hyper transformation should happen in every stage where it is possible (i.e., there are enough rings).

So in practice, is it possible to get that instead of the bonus levels in more levels than in existing Sonic 100% and Knuckles 100% runs?

Ti_ says oam-decay-test isn't actually passed, and it isn't in any other emulator, because it's impossible to emulate, only to simulate. http://forums.nesdev.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10499#p127049 https://yadi.sk/d/x6fXc5pY3GMJ68 http://forums.nesdev.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=96 https://yadi.sk/d/cSdOhqNs3HVNLc I asked him to elaborate or to post here, but he doesn't want :/

I'm watching all the 4 runs side by side now: Sonic 100%, Knuckles 100% old, this run, and Knuckles any% WIP. What I'm noticing is, in this submission and in Knuckles any%, Knuckles is disappearing in some places, making the camera scroll to catch up (I only watched up to Hydrocity, it happened twice so far). How is that effect called and what exactly happens there? I know that in any% it's the underflow thing, but what is it here? And what amount of it is used in any%? EDIT: Nevermind, they all seem to have that glitch. It probably consists of several glitches: outrunning the camera, moving behind the BG and moving entirely outside the level border. Anyways, that's what I dislike about these 100% runs. They avoid the setup that makes it look completely trivial (and incomprehensible without the camhack), but they still use the ones that looks like that banned setup. But it's the bonus levels that make me vote No on this run: they completely kill the pace. And as was pointed out in the Sonic 100% submission thread, if you can't enjoy it without the cutsceneless encode, they you can't vote Yes. But still, such an encode for this run would make perfect sense.

What part of the judgment note explains why max points is indeed full completion for this game?

I also wonder how "max points" relates to fastest completion here, as it wasn't mentioned, yet the branch is that, like they aren't equal here.

Once I uploaded my photo to tinypic. After some months it got replaced by a random black girl's selfie. The funny part is that I used that pic in the userphoto thread at tasvideos. So yeah, you can expect any silly bullshit from that shitty site (that was fine once).

So speed-entertainment trade-offs are okay for Vault? I'd guess so, but then we need to reword these: http://tasvideos.org/JudgeGuidelines.html#TiersAndGoals http://tasvideos.org/Guidelines.html#Tiers

Can't work on it right now. I'm on XP, and I'm currently encoding the 007 submission, which will take a dozen days. And Bizhawk doesn't compile on XP anymore. So I'll get there when I can switch to 7.

I cut off the beginning (before the S fade out begins) and this run looks slower than the current unassisted world record (also done on SNES):

Yeah I mean how do they compare if we consider the possible timing difference? TASes count from power on, real-time runs use to count from gaining control on the... car in this case?

Fester's Quest was misjudged. It has speed/entertainment trade-offs and forgoes some glitches in order to make it more entertaining, and fails at that. So it should have been rejected until a run without trade offs is made. EarthBound Beginnings was automatically moved to Vault when the latter was created, due to its rating, but it has an unvaultable goal, so this should be fixed by mooning it (since we can't unpublish).

It's not a preferred emulator, so it obviously can't be added there. It's a test thing that people are supposed to use at their own risk (not so risky honestly).
