Yes, a cucco riding the ground.

Ah, thats what I was asking for last time, I play mkwii and have recorded some stuff before using my digital camera, which produces some good quality videos;

Would you say a video of this quality would be okay?

No. From the FAQ:

Well I thought it was okay. (I'm not trying to impersonate him, I'm actually talking about myself, HackJack)

edit: Oops, accidentally said "Crawford" after HackJack. Like my name would be HackJack Crawford.

Why does that rule exist anymore? Cameras are of much better quality nowadays, and while nothing will get it just right like a DVD recorder or whatever, if the image can be as stable as that, I don't see why not.

I guess this isn't the place to argue about it though. >_>

Sorry if this is going to be confusing, but I decided to do do two more speedruns.

SMG2 - Bowser Jr.'s Mighty Megahammer (2:37.25)
SMG2 - Head in the Clouds (1:03.70)

I accidentally forgot to do my freerun vid, so I'll do it on 11/11/10.

Now that I unlocked Green Stars, I'll do a speedrun of Slimy Spring's second green star in video (as for marsonioc's request).

edit: I mean as for marioman's request. (I just realized marsonioc didn't request it, marioman99 did)

SMG2 - Throwback Green Star 2 (0:17.01) (WR)

Only flaw was that I had to spin to the star. Good luck getting sub-17 seconds guys. Wasn't expecting to beat my time by .89.

SMG2 - 242 Stars (27:38:06)

SMG2 - Cloudy Court Green Star 3 (1:05.20)

SMG2 - Bowser's Big Lava Power Party (3:34.33) (WR)

Thanks to ZFG for getting a time of 3:39.xx on this level in video showing how to do both lava shortcuts and not get the six-life mushroom. It took me forever to do the second lava shortcut without the mushroom.

SMG2 - Spin-Dig Green Star 2 (46.40)

Only improvement is that if i'm ever able to do the glitch that saves 1-2 seconds that logitech found.

Recently I was practicing to the sequence break with Yoshi in the final Bowser level so I can complete the level in sub-7 minutes. Once I almost made it, but I didn't. The only one who was able to do it in a speedrun (in the comet, not the the first star) was davincentcode from YouTube. He got 2:09.xx as the WR. Since I'm sure it might take until 2011 to get that speedtrick right, I'll do some other levels instead.

SMG2 - Search for the Toad Brigade Captain (54.71)

I've still been working on sub-50 on this level, and it might take a while to do.

SMG2 - Sky Station Green Star 1 (4.20)

Since I'm still gonna have to practice the hard auto-backflip-and-skip-luma's-text trick, I just did a jump to skip the luma's text, longjumped, and backfliped.

edit:

SMG2 - Every Planet has its Price (33.25)

Wow. Looks like if I wasn't banned from cyberscore I would be third place on the charts, with klar in second place with 33.20 and packattack in the lead with 33.08. I beat packattack's vid time, but apparently now he has 33.08 sadly. Anyway, this went really well, and this means it can be improved by .17.

SMG2 - Fleet Glide Green Star 1 (14.26)

It's been taking me forever to improve my last time (14.35) and I finally did it. I'm still working on the max (14.15) and I hope I'll get it soon.

THIS RUN CONTAINS SECRET WORLDS

@HackJack: Excellent job with the Head in the Clouds execution. I seriously hope you can get a good recording device soon!

Time for another update...
I've been attempting the run every weekend. It always goes the same way. I spend the first half of the weekend failing on the first world, then spend the last half getting to world 4 or 5 before making a silly mistake that ruins the whole thing.
At least world 1 is extremely optimized now.
In a week and a half, I have 5 days off school. I don't plan on leaving the basement until it's done.

Thanks, Sillygramcracker.

SMG2 - Flipsville Green Star 2 (16.75) (WR)

Here is a strategy for the second planet: Backflip+Walljump+Spin onto the little stick hanging out of the wall, and then long jump, wait a second, and jump to the green star.

This went totally well. I love this level.

edit:

SMG2 - Boomsday Machine Daredevil Run (2:13.46)

This went well. The WR for this is 2:11.38 by Celsius.

2010-11-15 06:47:37 am

Lol sorry Marioman99, I also speedrunned bumble beginnings a while ago and got 1:54.7x
I was doing the same as Hackjack and going for 242 stars on a separate account before speedrunning and recording a few things, but I got sucked back into MarioKartWii. Once I get w3r on kc, ill be back with a video of an improved bumble beginnings time Smiley

2010-11-16 04:03:47 pm

SMG2 - Bugaboom's Back (57.31)

Yay, less than one minute Smiley

This went totally well. I finally got the last hit on Bugaboom (The triple jump+spin+pound) correctly.

SMG2 - Lava Lair Green Star 2 (59.xx)

Finally managed to get sub one minute.

SMG2 - Megahammer's Daredevil Run (1:10.20) (WR)

I finally managed to beat the last WR of 1:11.06:

I'm so proud of myself for getting another WR Cheesy

2010-11-19 05:54:59 pm

GWAHAHAHAHA!

I've been working on sub-54 on "Bowser on Ice" for a long time (now that I know the fast-fireball throw, which is shake-duck-shake-duck-shake-duck over and over and over again as fast as you can), and yet I haven't gotten it. The World Record is 54.00, I got 54.71 as my fastest.

Good luck for trying beat my record. You can do end without damage lost, I´m not sure if you meaned that in your previous comment Wink

52.xx or 51.xx is possible to get.

Also, I got 1.08.10 on Megahammer Daredevil. It´s pretty good but improvable. I start doing videos at some point, but now I´ve focused doing first times to many stars, but videos are coming Cheesy

ok, I guess I won't use my bumble beginnings, since multiple people can get 4 seconds faster than what I did. I think my other run is Purple Coin Slide, and it might be up today.

I'll sometime work on sub-40 for Chompworks Green Star 2 (Emperor has gotten it).

I'm talking about the fast fireball throw that packattack used to get sub one minute on Squizzard Daredevil.

SMG2 - Squizzard's Sandy Sinkhole (3:03.23)

Still working on the sub-3 minutes, but yet haven't beaten davincentcode (3:23.16) and the WR is by Miles (3:00.xx)

I'm also working on sub-2 minutes on both Prince Pikante's Peppery Mood and Time for Adventure.

You can find all of davincentcode's runs on his channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/davincentcode

FINALLY!

Purple Coin Slide: 1:18.63

Is a landing cancel possible at the end, and is it faster to go down the middle of the slide at the end?

EDIT: HackJack, nice, but WHY NOT LUIGI?

I have no name

2010-11-21 01:05:47 am

Obscure games ftw

marioman, nice job, but it looks like it could be improved by around a second by getting onto the slide faster, and not spinning on the slide.

HackJack

2010-11-21 06:25:42 am

GWAHAHAHAHA!

Umm... marioman, before reaching the edge of the end of the slide, jump, and then once you are above the grass, ground pound. If you don't jump and you let it fall itself, you can't ground pound.

Anyway, great job with your fourth speedrun. I'll add it to the IL Table in a second (unless somebody else already added it)

marioman99

2010-11-21 07:33:40 am

ah, yes, never tried that, fail Smiley

that plus no spin plus reaching the slide faster could save 2.5-3 seconds, maybe.
