Quote from CarpetCrawler:
Watching your marble not give a shit about the hammers in the Aerial Race is incredibly impressive every time I watch it. This run improves on the other one you sent us in various ways and makes for an even more polished run. ACCEPT

Accept!
Oh wait, I have to comment first...
After looking at the 2:52, I thought the run was pretty good, but could use a little work. I honestly thought "I think he could get 2:50 considering the mistakes." And, well, that's what he did.
The run:
- Stage 1: Perfect
- Stage 2: Perfect
- Stage 3: Very good, If I remember correctly, 69 is a possible time (maybe 0.5 seconds lost here)
- Stage 4: Didn't get the bad luck i had in my 2:54 and didn't slow down at the hammers. I think he saved about 3 seconds here. This was basically flawless.
- Stage 5: I love this one. He executed the run very very well, even past the glitchy area midstage. To top it off, he managed the shortcut I didn't bother with when I did attempts. I think he saved ~2 seconds here, maybe lost 1 total from perfect.
Stage 6: In this last stage he managed to keep his cool and complete the run. He had a few hesitations, but very minor. I think he lost more time in stage 6 than any other stage, but it still was very minimal.
Overall, I think stages 1-4 were pretty much perfect, stage 5 had the shortcut and less mistakes than my previous run. Stage 6 had very minor mistakes.
2:47 or 2:48 is likely the limit here, and considering the difficulty of the run, this is an easy accept.
Congrats!

A/V good, no cheating.
So this is a two second-ish improvement over the one I just accepted, which I had minor reservations about. No such thing can be said here, it stays just about equal with andrew's run until andrew's run get a random wand, and it picks up and never lets go from the hammers on.
Accept.

I don't know what's better. The time of this run or that the runner improved it so fast. I was going to try, but never mind now.

A/V fine.
A cleaner run this time around which fixed the more glaring mistakes from last time and took a bunch of turns so tight that the marble damn near fell off the stage. Much easier to say Accept for this one.
