I only know of one major glitch in that alttp, and I thought it would be a good idea for the run since it doesn't require the Up+Down input that only an emulator could provide.

I think you should use anything to get up to 70 stars , but open the 70 star door normally.

the speed demo bonus is for the in game time because I remember playing the game, took a long lunch break between two levels, coming back and beat it and got the speed demon bonus.

The cannon doesn't actually "exist" until you get the bobomb to open it.

As long as you get it under 8 minutes you'll get the speed demon bonus, so that gives you some time to spare. Taking no damage throughout the whole thing gives you a 300,000 bonus, but I don't know if that interferes with comet/mystic. Maybe some insane luck manipulation to get the pacifist bonus against the single opponents?

There seems to be an undeniable number of yes votes, but the movie isn't published yet. Or does the .avi need to be made before the movie is published?

against single opponents DK can just knock them off the ledge and do the forward+A smash for an instant kill. Getting them to the ledge quickly is a harder problem.

fastest time would be interesting to watch. It's a question of which character would be the best at this. I think DK might be the best choice for this category, since his spin attack devastates teams.

I haven't played the game in a while, so I don't know if the emulator makes the saving any faster than on the console. From the GE thread, it seems that emulators don't show lag, while the real console does.

IMO it doesn't matter if a run is starred, it just depends on whether the viewer is predisposed to liking speedruns. When I watched my first speedrun and tas I immediately got hooked to SDA and tasvideos respectively, since it's my nature to be amazed at video game feats. When I showed my friends the same videos, they never showed much interest in it. Their personalities just don't match with speedruns, and I found it useless trying to show them more starred runs. So instead of starring videos, just upload a lot of them to youtube or google video and provide clear links to tasvideos and maybe some people will be converted.

iirc, the first save option they give you is "yes" so you shouldn't have to waste time switching to "no"

I'd to see a tas of twine, that game was a lot harder than GE imo. Of course, be sure to check the-elite.net for an idea of what to aim for in each level.

Very impressive wall-kicking and route planning. Definitely a yes vote.

Nobody on SDA is working on it, so it doesn't really matter.

So WJ may be right about it helping only on console, as far as i can tell it doesn't matter on emulator since the timer doesn't even faze.
Now you only have to worry about shot placement.

very nice EDIT: I noticed in his comments he mispelled Rikku "Rukki". That was a bit weird.

GE doesn't have the timer which which makes the test a little impossible unless there is a hack to show it
GE has a timer at the end of the mission

keep working on it FODA. I eagerly look forward to it coming out. So the estimated time for a 16-star run is now in the 15:30s? Wow, it keeps dropping.
