Setting up A MMX1-8+Z1 relay ( possibly MMZ2/3 as well)

2014-03-25 09:13:10 am

I can probably go with his route as i don't remember the normal route at all. As long as i have time to practice im fine with anything. Let me know

Sounds like Maverick talk to me.

My route is pretty safe although I think its pretty outdated. I believe I know the route qttsix speaks of.

I spoke with Satoryu on the matter a long while ago.

I do indeed need time to learn this route cause it probably doesnt have armor and is more difficult than my usual.

Wouldn't it be more interesting if everyone uses a route there comfortable with?

ok the route im am talking about is as follows (modify as you see fit)
Giga> Intro 4 buster> Sunflower> Yeti Helmet> Mantis> Antonion> Panda> Rooster> Trilobyte
the first 4 stages are all that matter (so i just put the rest in a random order(these are from blind splits)) if i recall correctly i remember him saying the foot in rooster does not save enough time im thinking the spinning move for zero is the main mode for transport i will link his low% wr it might make good reference for movement and such http://www.twitch.tv/qttsix/c/3746140

I am ok with you running how ever you want I am just worried about team balance, I dont want qtt to gain like minutes from route difference.
This is all im looking into.
at the end of the day do what is fastest for you this is the best way for this speed run.

Is there any way X1 can be 100%? I am not ready to learn any%.

You should stick to one category for the whole relay, like 100% (any% is fine for X2 since you're getting pretty much everything except Zero's Part), i don't know about the other games tho.

I am more interested in showing off MMX runs that are not normally shown in a marathon (gdq) then sticking with a formula, but i will take this under consideration.
I chose x3 100% because there are more runners familiar with it and they have much closer times in it so it will provide a much closer and entertaining race then any% when i would most likely have to cut it due to not having close enough runner time.

I will get good, or you can make it a god free race.

I just think you should generally go with categories that most people run, even if it's been done at marathons. You aren't hosting a marathon, so it's silly to compare it to GDQs/ESA. This is a relay race. And going with common categories generally means more people run them, and more people will have closer times.

EDIT: Also, I'd rather my name not be on the list since as I mentioned, I can't guarantee I can even stream at the time (moving some stuff out of the apartment, that may include my TV and consoles and such). And especially X5; assuming I can stream at the end of april, I'd only do X5 for this relay as a backup

you have some valid points i will think it over.
i am sorry for putting you on the runner list I had intended to put you on the back-up list but forgot to from getting a lot of pm in twitch request and talking about it sorry.
are you fine with being on the back up list or would you rather not be listed at all?

Backup list is fine, thanks a lot! No need to apologize, it's hard to keep track of what everyone's doing ;P

yes i just didnt want it to seem like i kept your name up there even though you said unlikely to fill the list with know names
and your right i will go with what gets more balance, but i still want to do things like x2 low% if i can get darko, tiki and gameo in for it because that would be freaking awesome

If we get enough runners, will there be a 4th team, team vile/alia/red?

i wish, but i doubt it because i dont think there is enough to support x7 x8 ( literally not enough runners)

Ok just another Reminder X1 X2 and X4 are not set in stone
the categories are currently
X1 (any%)
X2 (any%)
X4 (Zero 100%)
I am still considering
X1 (100%)
X2 ( Low%)
X4 (X 100%)
my final choice will be based on times of the runners the and submissions etc.
I need to know what I have before I commit to one category so i will not close of options 4 weeks out cuz reason.

running the same game twice would get old very fast
I gave it some thought and wish I could but I think 1 per game is good
the only thing even close would be x4 zero and x as the play differently but not enough for a casual viewer to appreciate imo.

have you ever seen a team during an olympic relay race having one guy do 2 laps, then the 2nd once do 1 and then the 3rd three times? It doesn't make sense..

You beat the first game, then go to the next

Something witty

If it's still in consideration, I'd like to be put on the list under MMX4 100% X. My time is 48:40.

The time it would take me to beat one of these games is the time that the runners would take to beat 2 or 3 of them so I'm not putting in my name but I am very excited to see this happening. I will certainly be watching.
