What I can say... VOTE FOR BEST 2012 TAS! (a.k.a. Yes vote). Still was thinking that's only 8 minutes of improvement.

This run is SUPREME and these people are Gods of the Mushroom Kingdom. Has siglemic seen this yet?

Yes. This one goes straight to the vault. =)

*does best Sonic impression* Pheeeeew, that was cool! I don't know what the hell happened with the shell in Tiny, Huge Island but that was hands down my favorite part. Treasure in the Ocean Cave is definitely a close second.

yes YES YES YES YES YES!!!

i vote YES!

10/10 Would watch again Would also vote for the best TAS in 2012. Btw, I think it's still improvable, by far, but hey let the next generation beat it! You have done an amazing work guys, thank you so much!

I'm obviously voting no because my expectations weren't messed with during the THI part. From the 2nd star onward, when Mario leaves the stage, the camera turns right to face the Tiny Island. I was hoping that, at least once, the camera would face the Giant Island, but suddenly, Mario would turn back and still enter the Tiny Island. Wait, if I expected the camera to face the wrong way at least once... does that mean my expectations were still messed with? Guess I'm forced to vote yes. All joking aside, this was a great birthday present! Excellent work! Definitely a shoe-in for TOTY.

Easy yes vote. Great job guys !

Also, I understand almost all the tricks and glitches used in this run, but there is one I didn't really understand... How comes so many Moneybags were spawned in Snowman's Land 100 coins ? Could someone enlighten me, please ?

It's a spawning glitch that when you leave the Moneybags out of the camera, they duplicate because the game understands that there's no left Moneybags. YES FOR SURE, BTW!

Hmmmm... I'm not sure how optimal this is.... also this isn't really a well-known game. Voted yes though to give benefit of the doubt, hopefully these new TASers will go on to do other projects.

I see now, thanks for the clarification.

I think this run is suboptimal. My extensive research of this game suggests that it can actually be completed by collecting just 70 stars, so this run collects 50 too many. Regardless, it looks well done, so I'm voting yes.

To whoever accepts/publishes this, I've asked Aktan to do the site encodes and he's up for it. Thanks to him!

It's too fast, there's too much action, and it's way too entertaining. I don't know about this one ... OH GOD YES VOTE!

Great Job! Here are some nice highlights that were the most impressive IMO: 7:00 BitD Red coins (BLJ) 10:10 WF 100 Coins & Red Coins (one star animation for 2 stars, also later 51:15, 1:01:04, 1:08:14, 1:17:13) 12:30 WF Shoot Into the Wild Blue (after swimming) 12:58 BOB Red coins (nice flying also in the following stars) 19:18 DDD Red coins (wall kicks) 21:18 DD Collect the caps (Out Of Bounds) 26:25 HMC Metal head Mario 28:30 HMC 100 coins 35:13 SSL Inside the Ancient Pyramid and red coins (Glitch through the pyramid/flying) 41:45 JRB Treasure (without swimming) 47:20 BBH Ghost hunt (with BLJ) 52:00 BBH Red Coins (with BLJ) and the glitchy jump to the upper floor at 52:34 53:10 THI 100 coins (Shell Mario) 1:00:35 SL 100 coins (clone money bags) 1:04:50 TTM Monkey Cage (star post mortem) 1:06:00 WDW Secrets (wall kicks) 1:09:57 WDW Quick race (store speed) 1:11:55 TTC 100 coins (ninja Mario) 1:15:35 RR House in the sky (carpetless) 1:17:40 RR Triangles (BLJ) 1:19:20 BitS Red coins (BLJ) I also like 56:15 where Mario is like "Come on Koopa, move on! I have a TAS to finish!" Thank you guys for this really entertaining run.

Wow, that's a nice find you have there. Collecting 100% of items by collecting just 58% of them? You must have found an OOT-esque memory corruption glitch which could lead to epic amounts of time saving. Please do share. Yes, I'm aware this is (most probably) a joke.

F*CK SWIMMING F*CK FLOORS F*CK WALLS F*CK DOORS

I think that about sums it up. 2,136,942 rerecords... is that a record?? Voting no because it completes the game instead of overwriting it with MLP.

wow ice ! will watch that tonight

I think so, but if something has more rerecords it will probably have used brute forcing for part of it. Edit: http://tasvideos.org/3570S.html has the most (5,425,978) so this run would be second.

TAS of the year ^_^

So great to finally see this in its entirety. Some real surprises in this for me. I loved the "death star" in TTM :) (yes vote, of course).

I'm voting yes because I liked the ending music :)

I've been waiting for this submission for years and it didn't disappoint me. Regardless of all the stuff I know about this game there were many moments that just left me in awe. Congratulations you guys for finishing such an amazing run!! Yes of course.
