Spyro the Dragon

1. Yellow Roof% - Get on top of the highest roof of the level "Lofty Castle" using a damage boost. This would add on 3 minutes to the original estimate of 1:35:00.

Aperture Tag:
Good ending (slower by a couple minutes, has some special dialogue and finale) vs. Bad ending (faster, you die in a fire to end the game)

Donation Incentive for the Majora's Mask run. 2 Players 1 Controller first 20 minutes of the game with ThiefBug

Games!

Rogue Legacy:

1) Descendant Name, max 8 characters (letters only)
3-5 Male & 3-5 Female. Each time you die, you get 3 new descendants at random, the names can repeat. Average run will see 8 descendants.

2) Remixed Bosses
Each of the 4 bosses has a harder version you can unlock. Each boss should take 2 or less minutes to kill. This would be done on a prepared save file after the run. Alexander V2 and Khidr V2 are pretty cool watches. Ponce V2 is slower and simple. Herodotus V2 is total chaos and RNG. I'd say just put 5 to 10 minutes on the clock and I'll clear as many as I can. If not that, then make it a smaller incentive for just Alexander V2 (5 minutes including setup).

My feelings on The Demon Rush

Gocnak: That sounds like a good donation incentive, does it add time to the run?

CavemanDCJ and gyre: Yeah these aren't big donation incentives but they're not difficult to add.

ChrisLBC: I'm not sure what the significance of the yellow roof is.

Znernicus: Would have to add time to the estimate to account for the ending?

MajinPhil: This should work.

Tjerraj42: Descendant name is a good incentive, but I'm not so sure about the remixed bosses. Maybe just Alexander V2, but I'm not familiar with the game.

It's a damage boost that sends you flying in the air extremely high and is just funny to watch, the yellow roof is just the highest point of the level and you get to see the entire level from up there. It's okay if you don't want to add time, just would be funny to see.

Worthless categories WR master

I know my game is on the wait list, but better be on the safe side

Game: Minecraft

1. World Name. Seen a few times when I do the duplication glitch (last year I improvised something, Mike you still have to get back to me about this one)
2. Skin. Could be a bid war between 2 to 5 choices, or someone could pitch in their creation. Last year I simply used this Mario skin I've been using.

Whizz: Camera glitches
Adds 1 minute.

There are a couple levels where it is possible to break the camera a little or a lot. This incentive would be for breaking the camera on those two levels and then finishing the level anyway.

F-Zero X - Death Race

Could be done after the run, my PB is 28 seconds but let's say it adds 1 - 2 minutes. Estimate can stay the same.

Whizz: 2-1 camera glitch
Adds 10-20 seconds (no change to estimate needed)

There's a bug in part of stage 2-1 that lets me push the camera over two tiles. It's hard to explain briefly without just linking to a video. Given that, and the fact that it doesn't cost much time, it may also make sense for me to just do it anyway without making it an incentive.

Would you be interested in learning the camera break in 1-2 as well? It is super crazy and hurts like hell to look at, but it is near the end of the stage so there isn't TOO much left. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK1I7pnu75Y

Just noticed that was made almost exactly 2 years ago. Neat!

I'd rather go for the 1-HP strats in 1-2 since it's the best stage to show off how they work. I... don't think I can finish the stage at 1 HP with a broken camera. >__>

I do, however, know how to get a similar camera break in 2-1. I normally do it as a way of crashing the game, but I can try finishing the stage without intentionally crashing the game and see how reliably I can do it. If it seems safe, I'll add that to the incentive (would increase the estimate by about a minute, I'm guessing). I'll also see if I can get the same thing to happen in 2-3, since the 2-1 break is in the water (I can't break the camera in 2-2 even if it's possible because then people wouldn't be able to see the sled).

EDIT: Sure! I initially didn't want to do the break in 1-2 because I wanted to play with 1 HP, but I think I can break the camera and still do the 1 HP thing if I really want to. I have to go out of my way for health and time refills, so it probably ends up being slower than collecting the door breakers, but it's possible. >_> I've updated my incentive description.

I'd still do the staircase thing in 2-1 still instead of completely wrecking the camera again. I got way too many random crashes when I tried breaking the camera in 2-1 earlier tonight.

Wow, it's been a while. Doesn't feel that long...

Mike, for Aperture Tag even with the slower ending the run is about 25-28 minutes, should be fine for the 30 min estimate. Worst case I will go about even with the estimate.

@dk28 Since contra is a race (or at least is still listed as such on the schedule) have you talked to TMR about low% being an option?

Also first post updated with new offers.

Haven't been able to yet. Been meaning to call him though. We should be able to touch base soon.

My feelings on The Demon Rush

All of those donation incentives look good, but as Klaige stated, low% Contra would need Mexicanrunner's approval.

Just want to say with ultimate my estimate is listed at 1:22, it would be better to have that at 1:30 just to be on the safe side, or 1:25 just as a buffer tho I normally get 1:19's or lower for no reset runs Id feel more comfortable with 1:25.

Should be adjusted Geoff, I went with higher even though that's probably not necessary with the setup time tacked on too.

Atroz: Sounds good.

So TMR isn't too keen on the idea of low%. However, we did decide we could offer a bid war for a weapon specific run. Only Laser, Fire, etc...

Crazy Taxi incentives:

- 3 character file name
- Potential tiered incentive: Arcade mode S-Rank (earliest rank that shows credits, which takes $5000, takes less than a minute), then Arcade mode Crazy Rank (highest possible rank, takes $20,000 to achieve, takes less than 2 minutes)
