The first 5180 frames (the entirety of Stage 1) are 1:1 identical to Spikestuff's input right here, so I feel it'd be courteous if Spikestuff is given co-authorship here.

I feel it'd be courteous if Spikestuff is given co-authorship here.

And personally, even though I know input that I helped provide as an improvement for Pepper is being used without credit, it would be nice if the final result was actually optimal (-24f out of Level 2, possibly still improvable).

I've noticed on the previous submission that Spikestuff has helped out in this run. I was going to check to see if those inputs were still in use here, but I see that fsvgm777 has confirmed it. Thanks for doing that. I've made this mistake in the past, but it certainly wasn't done on purpose. So, I am going to extend the opportunity for Pepper-Color to work this out with Spikestuff for the following reason: *The first 5180 frames were created by Spikestuff and reused in this submission *Inputs after 5180 may not be agreeable to both parties. (I think this is also a concern to Spikestuff) *Maybe Spikestuff would rather be credited in the submission text and not as co-author So please reach out to Spikestuff and respond with your final agreements in this discussion thread. If I don't hear anything, then this submission will eventually be placed in a "Delayed" status until addressed.

I want to be clear on my position. There has been no response to Spikestuff, in this thread, for a week. If there is no response to my request, I will not be accepting this submission. Please respond to my earlier request and bring any conversations, that you may have had with Spikestuff, to this thread for my review. Thanks.

Sorry, I updated now frame -85 https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles/Info/638320664163150796

Coin management is also another thing the TAS might have to do as well to reduce the coin bonus, as well as the free puppies bonus. The Puppies one can be avoided, but the coin one is harder to route around, especially with the lack of knowledge I have, but the lack of information being provided here.

54 frame improvement out of Stage 3. Stage 3 also uses the original input from this submission on 3 - 4, adjusting one thing slightly. I've now adjusted more than half this TAS, and I need to emphasize this. Stage 1 isn't optimal.

with help Spikestuff.

I was not involved until just now.

Ok...we have some synchronization issues to resolve here. Spikestuff is still showing some early cuts that need to be discussed between the two of you. In addition, Pepper is also finding more cuts in another branch that doesn't contain these improvements. Here is where we are getting out of sync. This needs to be talked out...If there is going to be any co-authorship here. My suggestion, we need to set a "Base Line" of the inputs (in this case, Spikestuff's inputs) and agree on the movie together up to a certain point so that the remainder of the movie can be further optimized.

Wow When Buster Bunny meet Sonic in the Super Mario World and even Chip and Dale, may be also Alex Kidd.

om, nom, nom... blech, salty!
