Maciej 'groobo' Maselewski's PC low difficulty run
Verifier Responses
The answer to this verifier's question about health is that the game sometimes refills health during level transitions.
Decision: Accept
Reason: It's an improvement over an already well-optimized run.

No cheating or deaths, every level is played in order without health, armor, health pack or grenade changes between levels and the game is finished around 20% faster than the previous run in an impressive manner. Accept.

The run is very fast, and very well planned out. I could see no signs of obvious cheating, however glitches to skip ahead such as manipulating physics and wall clipping were used. These weren't bad enough to break the game and obviously needed practice and precise timing, so I wouldn't rule them out. No deaths, and hardly any weapons were even used. Accepted.

Wow, this run is ridiculously fun to watch.
There were a few (very few) points in the run where the audio was a fraction of a second slower than the video but it quickly fixes itself.
There is a point in the video where his hps goes from 96 to 100, this is at the end of a level and on a difficulty level I have never personally played so it could be part of the game mechanics(I have access to the game and can check this if you would like me to).
He uses a ladder glitch that I have not seen done at all which attributes largely to the time he achieves over his competitors.
This run was so much fun to watch because of the innovations to the game he has found. He uses rocket and nade jumping a lot to skip portions of the levels. this run will be lots of fun for the SDA community to watch and thy will talk about it much like they talk about Groobo's current Diablo run!
P.S. Everything else is great, there are no problems with med kits or grenades missing or other issues with health disappearing or randomly being added.

Verifier: first thought after watching the new FEAR run: great run
Verifier: good use of object boosting and oob
Verifier: the only thing I found annoying was the small sound anomalies scattered throughout the video
Verifier: there reslly isn't anything else "bad" to say about the run, he even stopped using those ridiculously low gfx settings
Verifier: I approve of this run
Verifier: ah yes, the execution and level of optimisation is of course extremely good as well

Verifier: Almost done with the FEAR run, I'm just rewatching it to keep an eye on the health/armor.
me: okay great
Verifier: It's a groobo run. Enough said.
me: figured as much
Verifier: Looks like groobo got a computer that runs on electricity rather than charcoal.
Verifier: Should stop people from complaining about the graphics settings again.
