Any progress Gibb?
Hey guys, Nah not really. Ive slipped in a couple of attempts but theyve been failures. Im on holidays in 2 weeks so im just going to play non-stop and try to get it done...

*UPDATE*
Well its been an interesting few days. Heres the story.
1st run attempt: 2.41.01
Second run attempt: Gunning it, and lost in the Boggy race on running boots :S thats a new one
3rd run attempt: Going extremely well and die in Rusty Buckey Bay by drowning in a dodgy fashion without realising. Kept playing on though, managing: 2.40.47: A personal best by 3 seconds (great...)
The good news has been I havn't needed to start runs over early in the game anywhere near as much as in the past, I think about 6 in total attempts probably.
Im still aiming for 2.40 but I think it can be better, feeling pretty good so far though

Well, I have some good news...
the run is DONE!!!
Well it has been a journey, including this run itself. Everthing went very well for the most part. 2 or 3 minor errors, causing maybe 10 -20 seconds each, but nothing to worry about. The only considerable error didn't come until furnace fun (I had a strange and bad feeling this might happen just when everything was going right), I missed the second joker card, I can't remember what the question was, so I had to do a time game. I got MR VILE! (thatd be right!), anyway, he was short work with the running boots, but it probably wasted the longest out of any of the others, not sure. Then the rest of furnace and witch went well.
Times:
SM: 2.13
MM: 6.03
TT: 9.14
CC: 11.08
BGS: 16.06 (this can't be right, I have a feeling doing Mr. Vile again added and extra minute, which is a bit strange)
FP: 15.15
GV: 13.18
MMM: 12.35
RBB: 15.38 - This was another significant error, but not on my part. I got caught on the window for the whole of the first propella spin and had to hit the switches again. I think this can be forgiven though
CCW: 23.45
GL: 34.32
Game Time: 2.40.05
Ok, I didn't hit Sub 40, but that's as good as it gets for now. I hit all the main tricks that I wanted to, so im pretty happy. It was very consistent except for the things mentioned...
It is on 2 DVD-RW 2 hour long discs. Do I finalise before sending?
And who do I send it to?

Well first off all congratulations, this will be awesome to watch, but I was little sad when I read "2 or 3 minor errors, causing maybe 10 -20 seconds each" and "I missed the second joker card". How ever..
2 DVD-RW I think you can use Anri-chan to finalize it, and you probaly send it to nate if im not totally wrong. Check the submission ..something.. page.

Everything's better with Magitek
Great job, Gibbatizer! I'll be looking forward to seeing this run.
Yes, you need to finalize the discs (your DVD recorder should be able to do it). Then send a PM to Mike (mikwuyma), and he'll give you the information about sending in the run. Be aware that he'll probably ask you to send him your run comments before you can submit your run, though.

lol, look how late I am to this party... 
Well done on beating the previous time. It's a little disheartening to hear the time for BGS and especially the RBB error... I don't think it'll stop the run from being accepted either way but I'm still unsure how you'd get caught for that long. :/ (were you just running against the window from random angles trying to get through or flap flipping or what? Might have to check when I watch)
BUT with that said, looking over the other times everything else sounds really solid and I'm looking forward to seeing the run.

Congratulations;
Can't wait to see the run, I can't believe freezeezy time, i thought id found the best route that could get 16 mins on a perfect run. Same with MMM, wanna see that route.
ive never tried the window run through thing yet so i cant relate, but if your thinking of going for sub 2:40, thatd be awesome.
