Scrubathon III - The Worst Comes First (Cutting Phase)

2015-04-11 10:28:36 am

Game: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
Category: SuitHAX
Estimate: 3:45:00 (probably possible to down this by a lot with practice/route)
Misc Info: Using Cheat code’s I get 5 Super Suits near the game’s beginning. I usually do this without notes for past Yaridovich and used the old any% strats for before Yaridovich

Game: Paper Mario 64
Category: Customizer
Estimate: 5:00:00 (highly dependent on what “route” is decided upon)
Misc Info: Customizer is a mixture category that uses strategies from All Cards, Glitchless, and Any% and the appeal is to have the exact chapters for each style decided before the run or during the prologue. Would be 2 chapters skipped, 2-3 chapters glitchless, and the rest must grab the Chapter’s card. There are some chapters that can’t be skipped due to my lack of glitch tech for any% exclusive glitches.

Game: Star Fox Command
Category: Lucy and Krystal (Girl Power), Fox and Krystal (First Ending), Star Wolf Returns
Estimate: 1:20:00 (per category)
Misc Info: Allowing the chat to vote between the selected endings would be probably be preferred if only one category can get in. I run on a 9 endings file usually so I can access any ending but it is a little longer for the first mission(s)
Projected Availability: 8am-12pm EST any day

Welp, about time i sorted some submissions out -

Game: Onimusha: Warlords
Category: Any%
Estimate: 1:20:00
Misc Info: Got the NTSC Version now! Estimate changed accordingly

Game: Final Fantasy Adventure
Category: Any%, Warpless%
Estimate: 45:00, 2:15:00
Misc Info: You know enough about this...

Game: Shining Force II
Category: Any%, Turbo%
Estimate: 11:00:00, 9:30:00
Misc Info: Can run normal or w/ Turbo mode. The Latter is faster to allow more time for others

That's me

EDIT - Changed estimates based on new found ability and/or version difference (NTSC Onimusha showed up :D)

Also, gonna throw in -

Game: Illusion of Gaia
Category: 100%
Estimate: 2:30:00
Misc Info: My OG run. Safest category of the game for me. I can race Hulk if he's up for it, or if you reckon the ability difference isn't too embarrassing

Game: God Hand (PS2)
Category: Easy NG+
Estimate: 1:10:00
Misc Info: This run USUALLY falls under 1:05:00 but it's heavy on the RNG so 1:10:00 is a guarantee. Despite the impression the category may give this is not an easy category and the game is still very punishing. This has been run for two small marathons before this and it was a crowd favorite both times. (potential co-commentary with Kung Fu Jesus)

Game: Metal Slug 3D
Category: Marco or Fio Easy
Estimate: 45:00
Misc Info: In MS3D each of the characters have mission and weapon drop differences. Having said that this game has zero RNG so it's 100% execution based. I'll be learning Eri and Tarma's runs more seriously between July and now so this could be a bid war between the four characters (assuming this is a fund raising marathon) or we could just go with Fio's run because it is the most complex and entertaining of the four. (potential co-commentary with CriticalCyd)

Projected Availability: Whenever you need me is fine, I'll be available for all the days, co-commentary may need specific time of day.

steak Steak STEAK!!!

Am I allowed to change my estimates? In light of recent route changes from this weekend, I'd like to change my Legaia 1 estimate from 11:30:00 to 10:15:00. I just pulled a 9:52 WR run and the route is now both considerably faster and safer, so I don't want to use the old estimate. I also want to pull the Legaia 2 offer, since I don't think it will be ready by June.

SPEEDruns not SAFEruns

Just wanted to throw it out there, I will be available all days now at any time!

Gerrick

2015-04-18 03:07:16 pm

I will throw my hat in the ring for this. I would like to submit the following games.

Game: Shadow Hearts
Category: Any
Estimate: 6:30:00
Misc Info: Run should be a bit shorter, but marathon luck and safe strats are going to put it around 6:30:xx. My PB is currently 6:18:xx
Projected Availability: I would prefer to do the run on the weekend if possible. After 6 pm CST would be when I would be available.

Game: Shadow Hearts: Covenant
Category: Any%
Estimate: 7:00:00
Misc Info: My PB is 6:49:xx but I don't know if I could replicate that particular run. Bowie has a 6:33:00 but again safe strats and such.
Projected Availability: I would prefer to do the run on the weekend if possible. After 6 pm CST would be when I would be available.

Otherwise I would be happy to help out if needed/able.

Yes/yes/yes! I've been studying SilentOverseer's 1:47 IGT run along with the community notes (which have changed a little bit from SirVG's SDA video which I started learning with), but I'm always down for a friendly race. Smiley

I wonder how that'd work with Braveblade luck though?

I thought I'd mention we've found a ton of major skips found in the Remember Me speedrun so the prediction is now more like 3:30:00 instead of whatever it was. Traivlin just did the first run with the new route and got a 3:16:xx I probably wont have time to do a run before submissions end so I'll post a link to his video to show the new skips. Then do some runs when I'm able to early May. Also now that I think about it I need to re-record that SH3 UFO ending run still. I forgot wups. Myb. Like three times in a row the recording got ruined and then I forgot about it. I'll go edit the original post to have the new time estimate and I'll attach the vods from others on those two runs until I get my own. I've just been really busy lately. I may as well update my PB VOD on SH3 as well.
The new route kinda ruins playing meme games during cutscenes in most cases. but there's still like two or three cutscenes to do like I think like the white chamber or two worlds any% as a joke but I doubt that would be considered, that's kind of more jokey. I would assume if the run was chosen it wouldn't be doing that anyways, just a stupid little joke idea.

Alrighty, time to get in on the scrubiness!

Game: Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals
Category: any% glitchless (it's still glitchless guys!)
Estimate: 4:05:00
One of the big PAL releases regarding SNES RPGs. Puzzles and being able to dodge fights are only some of the strong points.
I agree with Vultuz regarding a race. If you chose someone else, I'm fine with it.

Game: Final Fantasy V
Category: any%
Estimate: 4:20:00 (Can't resist the 420)
Staying really low level together with abusing jobs makes for interesting boss-setups and run overall. [P.S. If another runner submits this, I'll stand down.]

Game: Wonderboy V: Monster World III
Category: any%
Estimate: 1:05:00
Japanese version of Wonder Boy in Monster World, which is a little faster and safer than the US version. People say it looks like Zelda II DansGame.

Game: 10 Second Ninja
Category: Hard Mode (which is basically a timed run through all the levels without menus in between, how convenient)
Estimate: ~ 3 minutes
Nice filler game. Quick, fast paced jump n' run game, in which you try to kill all the enemies as fast as possible.

My 5th game is not set yet. I will either add it in the next 2 days or just leave it at that. Depends if I'm willing to learn it in time.

I will of course help out wherever I can. Let's top the last scrubathon!!

I knew I'll forget something: Availability, pretty much every day, but weekdays after 8pm CEST if possible.
