Please refer to the Verification Guidelines before posting. Verifications are due by Feb. 7, 2015.

Please post your opinions about the run and be certain to conclude your post with a verdict (Accept/Reject). This is not a contest where the majority wins - I will judge each verification on its content. Please keep your verification brief unless you have a good reason otherwise.

After 2 weeks I will read all of the verifications and move this thread to the main verification board and post my verdict.

This video explains why a runner need to touch walls/rails or make stops at certain points in Born From a Wish run:

Borderlands 2 Glitch Hunter/ router.

This took a while to get thru in one go lol I hope it was more fun doing than watching because walking-sim's aren't my thing... "what!? ...what do you mean it's a survival horror?".
I am going to state now that my knowledge of this game is 0% (and I only got to the school in the first game, SCARY!!!)
ANYWAY!
---------------------------------
Single Segment: Looks good few slowdowns, Strategies for the fights looked well worked out and executed nicely. nothing worth panicing over.
A/V: Good
Cheating: None
Timing: IGT
---------------------------------
Segmented: The segmented run has plenty of time savers and dedication to avoiding slowdowns that pays off, The difference between SS and segmented is around 2 Minutes, no faults as far as I could tell.
A/V: Good
Cheating: None
Timing: IGT
---------------------------------
BFaW Scenario: Run run run ... not a lot else ...nibbled by rats .... Run run run, Basically yes its fine.
A/V: Good
Cheating: None
Timing: IGT
---------------------------------
ACCEPT for all 3

:-)

Just a heads up, the run information for single segment states that the time is 45:20, but the files are clearly 44:18. I assume the run information is from an earlier submission

I don't have much to add. A/V looks good for all videos. All three runs are self-improvements (mainly) due to new time savers having been found. I'm not familiar with the game, but I could barely spot anything that didn't seem to have to do with rng. Overall excellent game play and, as far as I can tell, up to date strats (these seem to be the fastest reported times in their respective categories).

Easy accept
