Warps run

That's an insane run! great job Andrew, you're simply incredible and I still can't believe that when I talked to you about your run, you were actually thinking about doing the couples of frames perfect tricks in the game so you'll eventually sub 4:57. It's run is simply perfect.

A/V is right.
No cheating
Decision:Accept
reason:Do I really need to specify it Tongue .

Congratulation to AndrewG.

There were no problems with audio, video, syncing, or cheating.

Amazing run. So close to perfect.

Recommendation: Accept

i believe this will be improved someday but yeah this is obviously about as good a run as can be expected without pouring an insane amount of time into getting a run with the bullet glitch. i would say he made legit mistakes in the 2nd and 3rd rooms of 8-4 but they're pretty minor and completely unnoticeable to anyone who has not studied the game themselves. frame rules can be saved elsewhere as well but yea accept lol

This is a real work of art we have here. Andrew has been pushing this game to its limits for years, and finally after so many attempts, we're nearly approaching its maxed threshold. I enjoyed reading the run comments more then I usually do, as they fully illustrate the amount of sweat & effort poured into this game by our runner, and the run itself certainly demonstrates this moreso. All I disagree with is Andrews strong assertion that this run is only frames from perfect, and that the so sought after 4:57 is unachievable. Considering the seconds that have been shaved in just the last five years, its hard to imagine the possibility of what we'll be seeing from Andrew & the other SMB runners over the remainder of this decade.

Anyway, about the run, shits cash. Nearly every level is of TAS quality, and the few bumps that are present are unnoticeable unless your keeping a keen eye.


A/V is golden
No cheating

Verdict: Accept

& Andrew, we're proud'a ya. Grats.


Decision: Accept

Congratulations to Andrew Gardikis!
More useful than it ought to be.
GodDAMN andrewg, why you so awesome? Congrats!!
difficult and stupidly random
Accept!
Twinkle-Twinkle Lil' Star, har har!
Let me guess, 4:58? Or 4:57? Wait, even better, 4:56? I didn't actually see the final time in the Verifier comments, so that's why I'm asking lol!
1-Up!
This is the 4:00 actually.

Wait.  Did he not submit his 3:58 yet?  I thought his 4:00 was rather old.
Flip has a 4:55!

But grats andrew, even if you're still a few seconds behind Flip Shocked
Where and when can we see thiiiiiiiiiiiis?

Clap clap, Andrew.

He waits a few months between submissions so something is regularly being posted for him.

Hi! I'm andrewg!
Cheesy

4:57 would be cool. I think I could do it given a ton of time. I don't know that I want to dedicate anymore time to this though, at least not yet.

I really need to destroy some other games honestly.

congrats, andrewg!
how can this run be an impovement of 4:59?

he gained control at frame 490 and hit the axe at 18405 which is 17915 frames = 4:58:583  at 60fps

but shouldn't this time be rounded up to 4:59??

and btw, the rules say:

"For manually timed games with an existing run, improvements must save at least one additional second."

i don't wanna troll around or something. i'm just curious?

All times are rounded down.  A 4:58.997 would still be a 4:58 by SDA timing.
Beast run!

This game is probably one of the few exceptions based off how optimized the run has gotten. A full second less would be the TAS pretty much, so a run of this game can only really be improved by just frames at this point.
