Can i reply to this message if i'm considered as being stupid and incoherant? I'm not sure if i've spelt that right, but i'm not about to check.

Ha.. made a topic before reading this. Validate me plz. :(

Actually, there's nothing wrong with making a topic. In fact, that's what you're supposed to do, IIRC.

And I already welcomed ye. But can't validate.

Hiya. Nice layout. *waits to get validated*

i would like to be validated. this sounds like a good idea and i respect it(unlike some people i know). i have never had to get banned and/or warned anywhere else and i am in desperate need of help in sonic 3. so please validate me.

Hi. Just found this site after looking for Sonic Rush high scores.

Rolken · « **Reply #39 on:** November 26, 2005, 07:10:02 pm »

Can someone let me know if you get email notification when you're validated?

Aere Alouette · « **Reply #40 on:** November 27, 2005, 04:06:09 am »

As far as I know, my notification showed up when the other forums came up and not from an email. I'll go check my Bulk folder (tons of necessary emails find their way to my Bulk).

No sign of it.

RPG, you're probably not gonna like this either.

Dunno if you've seen it already, but I just saw it and I didn't see you mention it on the forum anywhere so I thought I'd alert you:

Work...as in, time attack work? :P

Bah!Well, it's always nice to have friendly competition. I highly doubt I'll be competing in advance 2 again though since I can't bring myself to time attack it seriously whenever I try :(

I don't mind if you beat my records. In fact, I think it's kinda cool that there is someone following in my footsteps, like I'm some sort of ancient leader (like Jebus :o)

But I do mind if you are cheating, because, well then you obviously don't deserve those records!

Although proof isn't required, I suggest you try to capture at least a few snapshots of some of your record times. It's not necessary, but I do have to admit that you surprised me myself quite a few times with some of your new times! At least this way, I can know that I am being beaten honestly, rather then by a cheater (like Dale...)

See you round the forums Douglas! :o

I'm afraid I have to agree with that whole heartedly :(

Heh :) Sadly not, been far too busy this year. The other forums I've been involved with, I get lost if I don't check regularly, whereas TAing I can just pick up when I'm bored/have free time/procrastinating.

I had some uncompressed vids that I couldn't get to compress properly, and which I lost in a hard disk upgrade. I'll maybe do a recording session this weekend, although I'm usually rubbish when it's recording (too much pressure!). Any requests for that and/or screens?

In that case, I'm definitely going to try to take a few points away from you in Advance. Unfortunately... I'm having too much fun on IM2 Knux to even bother with the other levels right now. Oh well, at least I can improve on that, even though I'm still ~14 seconds off the record. Most of it is silly mistakes on the boss, but the level strat MAY need fixing slightly.

Actually my right hand was sore yesterday from IM2 Knux... so much spindashing I did...

At least I've done it before.

Could you try a run of Egg Utopia 1? Character doesn't matter, but I'm interested to see how you cut more than 10 seconds off that record. (Needless to say, I was somewhat pissed when I'd finally beaten the old Knux record, only to see that you'd already beaten it.)

Oh yeah. Once I'm done with Sonic Advance for the time being (and am no longer sick of Advance 2, which will probably take a few weeks), I WILL take IP2 back! That's MY zone, hear?

Quote

RPG, you must have lots of free time, considering I TA at those times too, but I hardly have time to get down to the PS2 to do ShTH. GBA games are easier to do in that case due to work and school breaks, but even then I only get them in 15-20 minute bursts, which gets on your nerves when you get on a roll.

Please don't, I really don't want to have to do another run of it. Ever.

lol. Now you know how I feel when you took Music Plant Act 1 Sonic

Anyway, I think a picture would do just fine, though if you want to submit a video, then by all means do so. The more videos there are, then the better :)

Just wondering. How do you record your vids? and for that matter, how do you play Sonic Advance 2? On Gameboy or emulator? I find it extremly difficult to airdash rapidly in succession on the keyboard, but then again, most people find it difficult to airdash rapidly on the gameboy, so I guess like anything, it probably just takes some getting used to.

I dont X)

And in fact, its even easier on DS as my right D-pad button is mangled up from too much ADing...in fact...I will maybe get 5:50 Aero Egg-Sonic and then retire from Advance 2...until some vids come up for me to copy >_>

Spinballwizard · « **Reply #56 on:** December 01, 2005, 09:04:31 pm »

RPG: *stab*

Taco: Don't get me started with that whole airdashing thing. That's probably the only reason I don't have many good Sonic times, because I generally suck at airdashing quickly.

douglas: You know that'll only give me more incentive to beat it...

douglas · « **Reply #57 on:** December 03, 2005, 09:09:19 pm »

Egg Utopia 1 - Tails - 1:31:68
Pretty poor run in places (1:08 and 1:17 come to mind), but meh. Shows y'all the route I use. Actually, looking again sub 1:25 is more than possible, maybe sub 1:15 for Sonic.

Warning: it's nearly 15 meg, the quality's iffy and the sound's out of sync. I blame VBA.

Anyway, any more requests?

Emulator for TAing. Air dash breaks my hand either way but my keyboard's pretty nifty and I find it easier. I've been recording vids using the in-built thingummy in VBA using Divx 5.3.1 for encoding, but seeing the results it's given I'm thinking I should get Hyper Cam or something. What does everyone else use?

Spinballwizard · « **Reply #58 on:** December 03, 2005, 11:09:04 pm »

Eh, the quality isn't too bad. sound's desynched as you said, but it still provides help for me. I know that a lot of people who record using emulators here usually cut the sound. It's mainly to cut the file size.

I'm pretty sure NintenDan records via Game Boy Player + GCN (considering that you can see some obvious GCN things on his vids) + VCR, but I don't know where he goes from there. Most of the strong Genesis players just record with Gens, but I'm not sure how other Advance series players record (does anyone still active here record Advance games besides Ninty?).

Supposedly airdashing is easier on the GameCube than anywhere else. I can't really say much, considering I only use my GBA.

Also, I never would've thought about using that route... especially since I've never taken that route before. Like ever. (Well, as least after the checkpoint area; first ~half of the run is pretty much the same.)

Taco · « **Reply #59 on:** December 03, 2005, 11:48:40 pm »

I use my gameboy as the controller when playing on gamecube.

I'll have to check that vid later though, as my internet is the craps right now.
