OoT Imromptu #11

Goal: Get all Deku Stick and Deku Nut upgrades and end at the Saria Song cutscene with the name "A55".


A mistake was made in the goal. It is impossible to end this goal at Saria's Song cutscene due to needing Saria's Song in order to give the Skull Mask to the Imp. Therefore mid-way we decided the goal should instead just end when all stick and nut upgrades are gotten.

You can't buy chus without Goron's Ruby.

I realize that now, I was desperate to get bombchu's that weren't wellchus

You got slingshit, so spirit chus would've been the best choice.

Bracelet isn't much slower than well chus if you have to get Saria's Song.

If I don't have my computer fixed by next OoT impromptu, I can host it since I have a good idea already. Not that this wasn't fun in a way but I can't really compete with a ~15 minute disadvantage.  :-\

this one was retarded. impossible goal is a huge failure. i forfeit immediately upon finding out what the goal was.
- changing the goal mid race is retarded too cause I was at a friends house and didn't have skype. I was unable to do the IRC + play the game at the same time while any sort of possible goal fix was happening, so fuck it

ANYBODY WHO HOSTS AN IMPROMPTU SHOULD SPEEDRUN THE GOAL AND SEE IF THERE ARE ANY ISSUES WITH IT.

True, or at least research the goal's steps really well online first. Elm could have easily looked up the trade sequence online and seen that the Saria Song was necessary to give the Skull Mask away. I spent like 30 minutes researching the MM goal I made when I hosting to make absolutely sure it was all possible and not broken.

If you are going to make the pic, that might as well be your test run. That is what I did for impromptu 4.
