    You do not need a competitive world record to be a speedrunner. All you need is the will to go fast. Speedrunning is a mentality, not a medal.

      I think this is a big thing people wanting to get into speedrunning don’t translate from irl hobbies
      Take sports for instance you don’t start to become the best but you do it because you enjoy it and if you’ve got skill and work ethic then you become competitive and start worry about all that. Unless you’re well developed in the community and a top runner imo I think competing against anyone but your own pr is dumb and will take half the fun out of it in the long run

    11:03 This is called a post pass (named after using the bottom post of the sling to pass the ball from one flipper to the other), and is a very common flipper skill in IRL pinball!
    I'm not too sure on how pokemon pinball physics compare to irl or even other sims, but it's neat to see the trick used even if accidental. You probably could've just held the flipper up here instead and used that to roll the ball back up the inlane to line up your shot when it comes back down if it's reasonably accurate, though.

  • @sarowie

    Cool presentation 🙂It is awesome how much is happening in the run, while the time for a run is really manageable.
    And as you demonstrate: The sum of all best segments shows a lot of room, yet you also show much a player can screw up (showing that it really requires skill), but never looks "unfair".
    Really great!

      Im going to use a different game as an example, one i may attenpt someday, Ape Escape 2. Theres a part that has a lot of RNG and going a 100% would be different for a console player than a emulator player if theres a save state involved. i do belive there's also data collected when pressing "start" when booting the game on bith pinball and ape escape (Also in MegaMan Battle Network, but thats just another example)

    I will be shocked if your run isn't spliced. This vid is just too suspicious. You're conveniently off-camera and off-voice for the jirachi part? You're DESPERATE to place a WR somewhere? The overexplaining of the ball teleporting at the end, trying to pass it off as a weird quirk of the game? The dismissive handwave of "ok yeah I used savestates, but I promise I didn't cheat with them!"? Naaaahhh. You're trying too hard to cover your tracks and it shows.
