CriticalCyd and myself have been working on a Sonic Heroes speedrunning wiki that's still in the making, but maybe a link to it should be provided here at TSC as a reference or something? I dunno. I was just asked to post it here, lol.

Rules Revisions / Re: Gens/BizHawk and similar emulators should be banned from competition
« on: February 06, 2014, 02:21:49 pm »
One thing I want to know is this: Why would it be a problem switching to a different emulator? As TimpZ said, the non-TASable emus have better accuracy. For recording, all you'd need is something like Fraps or Bandicam or something like that (or even using local recording via XSplit or OBS). And all of these are easily accessible, if I'm not mistaken. And most Genesis emulators aren't that hard on PC usage, I don't think.
And the thing Brian_pso brought up about the whole ruling thing... That's also a pretty good compromise if you ask me. While it might seem like it's being contradictory, why should someone who broke the rule before it was implemented be punished in the first place? For one like this, anyways.
The last thing I want to speak about is that this rule would be a little bit of a failsafe against potential BSers, which is pretty obvious (yay for reiterating obvious things >,>). It's to help make sure the competition stays clean. I like the honor system, but even you guys know there have been countless BSers in the past. This can help lessen that amount. Not to mention the fact that people that were to TAS the 2D Sonic games... If they're smart or good enough, they'd be impossible to catch in the first place. The only thing to go by would be speculation and would allow them to get away with posting TASed stats. I dunno about anyone else, but this seems like a pretty good reason to go by this.
The only hole I can think of is if they don't make videos for their stats, which I guess could be avoided by requiring videos for a certain percentile or something like that? I dunno, this last part

« on: January 21, 2014, 01:07:04 pm »
Considering the fact that it's really easy to TAS with Gens, I'd be all for banning using it for emulation.
I also want to point out that when it comes to using Gens, it's really anal with its video stuff, so it makes no sense using it to me, but that's more opinionated :P

Ban something that will always happen over time no matter what if you don't buy a new controller? You really couldn't track these things in the first place, unlike turbo controllers. Yeah... No, it's just not realistic. Any more posts on this is rather idiotic, in my opinion

« on: December 05, 2013, 12:49:34 am »
My own predictions:
I will stay bad at all Sonic games on Wii
I will play Sonic R because can
Others
Don will either get red in Colors or get the Championship
InferSaime will do something in Sonic '06 that no one expects
FocusSight will get a real face (hue)
Yeah... I got nothing else at this point. I WANTED to make a few jokes, but I feel they're either very retarded (considering my sense of humor...) or just plain dull

General Sonic / Re: Can anyone find a (practical) use for this glitch?
« on: July 31, 2013, 07:31:59 am »
You're actually wrong, Infersaime. It's quite a bit higher than a normal jump. I don't know if it has much use, but it could be used for interesting glitches

« on: May 09, 2013, 07:04:09 pm »
I've had a similar thought, but, in truth, it's redundant to change it now. cyberscore.net actually separates the versions, so... If you don't like the way the chart is... I hate to tell you that competing on CS is your only option

I would prefer the earlier time, considering how long the race will be. In fact, I'd say it should start at 3 PM EDT, but 4 PM works just fine

Beef / Re: Stat Comment didn't go through...?
« on: December 11, 2012, 10:09:24 pm »
I've checked all of the new stats. Anything from part of December 9th all the way to now don't have ANY comments. NONE of the stats. You see stat comments here and there, but none for over 24 hours? And I've posted at least 3-5 stats since then. All of which the comment never went through. Please, someone, can you check this problem out, or, at least explain the situation?

General Sonic / Re: SADX 2011 patches glitches?
« on: December 01, 2012, 12:19:12 pm »
Yeah, you're right. A few glitches were patched when the GC version was ported to the old PC version. The latest PC version(XBLA/PSN/Steam) has just had a Free Camera/Auto Camera change and re-added a few enemies and objects the old PC version lacked(like the enemy at the beginning of Sonic's Final Egg). There's also a large change in collision detection, making Emerald Coast a bit harder. The ground curing to rock and an underwater section RIGHT after the 2nd-to-last Checkpoint... There's only one spot where you can go from the rock to the water on the PC versions, as you can do that transition just about everywhere at that point on GC and DC. Oh... And Casinopolis has added barriers. There's probably a few more changes neither of us mentioned, but... Let's just leave those out of this blatantly long message XD

Hey man. Welcome to TSC! I see you got your first record the day you joined. You remind me of me in SADX when I joined XD I had my first record within a week of joining. Keep up the good work. We NEED a steady Generations Champion, and I know you can do it XD

TSC Race Night / Re: Race Night 8: Sonic Adventure (DX)
« on: November 03, 2012, 02:15:57 am »
I would also recommend that the PC version not be used because of its instant loading times. It could save 3-7 minutes (estimate)opposing someone on GC, XBLA, PSN, or Steam versions(I think Steam is good...). As HyperSonic mentioned, DC is obviously not recommended, since you can't skip cutscenes in the first place

Well, I misinterpreted what you meant. Next time, please be a bit ore clear to what you mean, since what you say can be twisted into many meanings.

Competition Central / Re: Sonic 2 / Sonic 3 / Sonic & Knuckles Super charts proposal
« on: September 25, 2012, 03:52:37 pm »I mean let's be completely honest here Romulo, who are you competing with on TSC for S3K time records? You're beating old times, there is no direct competition. You can go right ahead and do exactly the same thing on the Freestyle charts, it would be exactly the same as adding a Super chart and you bombarding them, there would be no competition for your spot because no one with the same skill set is even messing with S3K right now.If I didn't know any better, that's somewhat of an insult. Wouldn't that mean that you may also have something against Rom in the first place? In a way, you're saying anyone could beat him if they were competing. That's a low blow, man. I suggest leaving out this kind of stuff, since it could suggest you just hate Rom and would try to shoot down any idea he has in the first place.
Also, I'd like to remind everyone of the animosity it seems werster has over Romulo in the first place. *Refers to many of werster's videos involving trash talk towards Rom*
Edit: Yeah... I didn't read the last sentence of werster's post... I feel a bit stupid. Oh well. Besides, I bet you all have looked stupid and many places before as well :)

Competition Central / Re: Sonic 2 / Sonic 3 / Sonic & Knuckles Super charts proposal
« on: September 21, 2012, 03:38:41 pm »
Werster brings up a fair point. However, just because someone will be punished for having their work put in is not something new. There have been times where Champs have been completely overtaken before, and, half of the time, they wouldn't come back to compete anyway(and example being when I overtook Jawzun). And the charts would look oversaturated, in a way, but look at Sonic Heroes and, as previously stated, Sonic '06 charts. Those are 10 times bigger than anything we would see with this change XD
Another thing werster has a nice point about is that Super Sonic isn't faster in most cases. That isn't relevant to having competition, however. The point is to be able to use Super Sonic. And even though the Freestyle charts allow Super/Hyper forms, there's nothing stopping people from posting their normal time in Freestyle. That makes competition for it worthless to begin with. And, as he said, it's fun to do Super Sonic runs, so why shouldn't it be added?
The final thing about having to add a whole new division... Hasn't this been done before? If it has, it really just requires time and effort. Meaning that someone with the time could get it done.
Well.. Opinions are opinions. This is just mine

Competition Central / Re: Revive TSC Race Nights?
« on: September 09, 2012, 03:34:19 pm »
If SADX was in the race, there would need to be different divisions for the PC and DC versions. The PC version has instant loading times, and it saves 4-6 minutes on its own, which is completely unfair to the console players. For DC, it's the opposite. You can't skip cutscenes, so the DC players would be down by 20-30 minutes, despite the player's skill. Even if the person TASed(only in theory, since DC TAS isn't possible), they'd be down by 15-25 minutes.

Hiya Folks / Re: hello :)
« on: August 25, 2012, 09:24:54 pm »
Freestyle is essentially a "useless" division. They use it for extra things, in case the competitors want to do something that goes against the rules(such as using the Speed Shoes glitch in SA2, or E-102's Hot Shelter in SADX, where you can max your time). It doesn't count towards your overall percentage, so only submit Freestyle stats if you want to have fun. In my opinion, there should be more Freestyle in SADX, but people disagree with it because it's useless, since none of those stats are truly counted
