i did a speedrun once, then the route changed and i was too inconsistent at it so i dropped like a rock down the leaderboards, and by "like a rock" i mean "from 2nd -> 5th" b/c it's not a particularly popular game

A golden helix streaked skyward from the Helvault. A thunderous explosion shattered the silver monolith and Avacyn emerged, free from her prison at last.

It would help if there was more than 2? goon speedrunners.

I was thinking about taking up Super Punch-Out speedrunning...until I saw that zallard1 is 4 frames away from having all 16 fights match the current WR TAS.

This first-of-its-kind run is from April but, good lord:

I did a run of Vice City before SSU was discovered and netted a respectable time of 1h45m. Never uploaded it to leaderboards tho.
Not gonna go for that again since man, gently caress Cone Crazy.

I'm lazy and don't practice and therefore never have PBs to post here.

I do need to derust a run (Growlanser 2) for the next Frame Fatales submission period and I’d like to get a PB with no game overs, just been busy. And the game can get stupid with RNG.

The Saga

I want to get back into running stuff more seriously, but I have a bunch of other projects I'm currently prioritizing, plus I've got a big pile of games I just want to play normally too. Also I'm job hunting. So right now I just don't feel like I can make the time to just play one thing over and over. I will get back into it eventually, when my life has sorted itself out better.

There's probably like 10 maybe? Inactive would be way more as well. It's just that there's not a lot to post about.

Dicey dungeons is cool? I'll post that.

I also hold world records in the technical sense. Only because I've outlasted the other active runner (:v:) and made a clear category switch.

Depends on what you're running!

I submitted Dicey to AGDQ, but the bid war was only for Jester, Warrior, Thief, Inventor because Robot and Witch are waaaay too inconsistent.

I'm taking up running 90s non-FPS 3D games. Your TIEs Fighter, your Wings Commander, your Magics Carpet, that area.

Which is to say, I just got back into TIE Fighter after like two years off, but next I really want to hit Wing Commander 3.

In a galaxy a long long time ago, I used to speedrun Quake - but then I got way more into tricking, so I never really got good enough to compete for the top.
That's my useless story.

In more current speedrun news, I look forward to seeing speedruns of Death Stranding.

I definitely remember seeing the first Quake Done Quick and thinking 'wow I bet I could make my own version'. Then all the mods hit and I got too busy playing a hoverboard racing mod.

Just tried to donate some direct to PCF rather than go through AGDQ and their site can't seem to cope with my country. The address dropdowns have no options available despite being mandatory.

well ok :v: It's from my first wave of videos to get times for everything, it could definitely be done better (mainly, being closer to the SHU when it launches), I'm now going back through and getting times for all the secondary and bonus goals, and then I'll actually work on improving times.

I used to run SS1 casually, but then someone figured out that with the right timing you could sprint through locked doors and obsoleted literally all of my routing, and I never got back into it. Don't really have a lot of time to practice speedrunning strats these days, now.

Actually, this is kinda funny, there was a chick right outside my building trying to get people to sign up as monthly donors for MSF (I unfortunately can't do it because my financial siruation is weird and it's better to do single donations instead). She asked me if I knew what MSF was and I had an interesting time trying to explain that I do and that I am a donor because of GDQ. Kinda wish I was wearing one of the Yetee shirts at the time.

This is a sign telling you to wear Yetee video game shirts more regularly.
