That's standard in SMS speedruns! The time save adds up to something like 10 minutes in 120 shine, it's crazy.

One of the FLUDD-less levels. Died three times, wasn't keeping track of how many lives he had.

Sounds like that Pokemon randomizer might be a good watch even if I don't know anything about Pokemon.

And also the Mario Sunshine game overed at some point? are they going way over estimate now? The schedule is already pushed back a LOT, I think I can still catch the silly block but it starts way later than previous events.

They turned it into a challenge run where the runner will play until the end of the original estimate and get as many shines as possible

I will burn my dread.

Seems like it was a good recovery. I’ve only been paying a little bit of attention since I’m not super into SMS, but with how utterly devastated the runner was I was worried they wouldn’t muster for the Challenge pivot.

That death was extremely brutal but I gotta give props to the runner for keeping it together enough to pivot.

That run was a massive moral victory. Very impressive turnaround, the simultaneous encouragement from the commentators, host, and crowd was heartwarming to say the least. Even twitch chat was nearly universally positive. Good stuff SGDQ.

"When life gives you ghosts, you make ghost-robots"

I think this is a philosophy we can all aspire to.

Man, what a good pivot. Once in a while, there's a run that goes so wrong and the runner clearly isn't prepared for that, just mercy kills it and leaves, clearly distressed. I'm glad it didn't end bad this time. Good vibes.

i absolutely hated mario sunshine all three times i tried getting into it, but like all 3d marios it is hella impressive watching someone speedrun it

All the levels felt the same, and the overworld felt like all the levels. Really big mistake there.

Man, I really have to wonder how people ever figure out such pixel-precise tricks like that boss door clip in the Banjo-Tooie run.

Screwing around. Either their own or people go looking through videos/forums for things casual gamers encountered by chance, then reverse engineer it. In the case of that door someone gets in, then someone (maybe not the same someone) figures out the pixel-perfect angle, and then they figure out how to set it up reliably.

While we wait for the next run, would anyone in here happen to have been on the host judging committee? I might like to PM them some questions for improving my audition next time
