!! Overview
* This category represents the [fastest completion] times for a minimum set of goals.
* Its purpose is to fulfill the site's goal of being a TAS records site, and a central repository of tool-assisted literature and information.
!! Entertainment requirements
* Entertainment value has little to no significance
* Opportunities to entertain the audience where it does not affect time is not a requirement. However, it is encouraged and can be used as a tie-breaker for two equally fast movies.
* [Movies-C1010Y-Vault|Opportunities to entertain the audience where it does affect time] are discouraged, though not disallowed if the overall technical quality and optimization are up to par. A movie that does not have speed/entertainment tradeoffs will always be prioritized over one that does.
* Aims to fulfill the site's goal of being a Tool-assisted Speedrun records site, as well as be an information based central repository for the body of TAS literature.
!! Technical requirements
* Must beat, or at the very least match, all existing speedrun records.
* Must show a proficient understanding of TAS techniques and be perceived as well optimized. I.e. should not have obvious pauses, mistakes, or sloppy play.
* In rare cases, there will be a sloppier movie that is faster than a more optimized movie due to the use of a major skip discovery. In this case, the faster of the two movies is preferred.
* The [Guidelines#SelectYourGameWell|guidelines] for difficulty settings, and password use still apply.
