Title: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Slowking on January 28, 2010, 05:06:21 AM Turns out nobody can do saturday. So we are going to do sunday unless a lot of people really can't do that.
Since nobody was appointed to lead this thing I appoint myself. :p Any questions or objections? time is 2pm EST Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: Zero on January 28, 2010, 05:07:45 AM Sunday because I won the chat. 8)

What are some good thing to work on? I can't get consistent superslides yet so probably backwalking/sidehopping? And just some other assorted glitches? Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: AniMeowzerz on January 28, 2010, 05:57:47 PM Yep, sunday works. Bomb Hovering. Seriously like 90% of tricks in this game are from hovering like a madman, it's your key to success. The rest is pretty much just simple MM knowledge. Superslides are hardly ever necessary.What are some good thing to work on? I can't get consistent superslides yet so probably backwalking/sidehopping? And just some other assorted glitches?

Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: Slowking on January 31, 2010, 01:45:20 AM Argh something came up here. Could somebody else please take over hosting?
I guess if nobody is found I could still do it, but I should really be somehwere else at that time. So any volunteers? I would ofcourse provide you with the idea I had for the objective. Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: AkiGrahamShitatsuchi on January 31, 2010, 01:52:36 AM I'm wondering whether me, more nuby than GAG, should try it. I've got some tricks down, and I have extensive MM knowledge, so, yeah. I'm glad it's at 2 p.m., 'cuz I got church :|) If not, I'll just just watch, SO DON'T BAN ME FOR NO REASON.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: Runnerguy2489 on January 31, 2010, 02:35:07 AM I'm hosting now, just so everyone knows.

Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: Blizzerk on January 31, 2010, 02:03:15 PM I'm in this!
lets hope my 100% practice has helped me :) Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, January 31th, 2010 Post by: mysticremen11 on January 31, 2010, 06:33:28 PM well if i cant get on the chat by 2:00PM i cant join P.S. im only going on the chat for the impromptu :)
Title: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: aleckermit on February 27, 2010, 03:19:15 AM The race is currently scheduled for 2pm EST. I am the host.
Be there, or be... a person that prefers OoT. Which is absolutely normal.

I've been thinking of a way to skip the first cycle in an impromptu. The reason we'd want to do this in the first place is because the first cycle takes about 30 minutes to complete, but has relatively little strategy to it. This is the best i could come up with. Each mask is color coded based on how difficult it is to get them. Green masks are the easiest to get (except maybe the captain's mask). Yellow masks are the more difficult masks to obtain in one 3 day cycle. Red are the hardest to obtain in a single 3 day cycle. Blue can only be obtained on the final day (i think). The idea is for the host to pick 3 of the green masks. Runners must ONLY obtain those 3 masks out of the green, otherwise they'll be disqualified. Saving by going back to Day 1 would be banned. I haven't gotten much farther on the idea though Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Cosmo on February 27, 2010, 10:54:40 PM IMO keep the first cycle
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Zero on February 27, 2010, 10:56:57 PM We still need the song of time just incase somebody fucks up, and I'm pretty sure the majority will.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on February 27, 2010, 11:01:45 PM how would that skip first cycle? You'd still have to do it to get to a file to work with
and that kinda limits impromptus Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Zero on February 27, 2010, 11:16:01 PM how would that skip first cycle? You'd still have to do it to get to a file to work with Getting goron mask would get you human. dunno if it would really help you.and that kinda limits impromptus Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on February 27, 2010, 11:18:06 PM cant get goron mask cycle 1
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Zero on February 27, 2010, 11:28:08 PM cant get goron mask cycle 1 I know. Just pointing that out.Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: SD2 on March 13, 2010, 08:12:04 PM Alright, Jiano gave me the go ahead to host an impromptu this coming Saturday, the 20th.
I imagine I'll start it at 2 EST. I'll do a picture for it, so rejoice. :) Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on April 02, 2010, 11:40:11 PM so whens the next mm race
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, April 4th, 2010 Post by: darkeye14 on April 03, 2010, 05:34:52 AM I'm hosting this on Sunday. 2PM EST. Be there; people are actually betting on the results.
Edit: Certain events have shifted the date back to Sunday. Edit 2: In an effort to attract more players, the time has been moved to 2PM EST. Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, April 4th, 2010 Post by: SD2 on April 03, 2010, 12:18:58 PM I'm hosting this on Sunday. 3PM EST. Be there; people are actually betting on the results. Wait, is this the 4th or the 11th?Edit: Certain events have shifted the date back to Sunday. Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on April 03, 2010, 02:51:40 PM the 4th
anyway who's betting? hopefully nobody's betting on me so I can be the dark whorse of the competition Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, April 4th, 2010 Post by: darkeye14 on April 03, 2010, 05:13:19 PM Sig is betting someone $24 that he can place higher than him; I forgot who he was betting, though.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Elminster on April 03, 2010, 05:16:47 PM He was betting Shino.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on April 03, 2010, 05:25:01 PM I'd say move this to 2EST because the earlier the better, considering some people (myself included) have somewhere to go for Easter dinner. If it's at 2, it will definately finish before I have to go.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, April 4th, 2010 Post by: darkeye14 on April 03, 2010, 06:17:44 PM It's moved to 2PM EST for now. I edited my original post with this new time as well.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, April 17th, 2010 Post by: darkeye14 on April 12, 2010, 03:37:35 AM I'm hosting another impromptu this upcoming Saturday at 5PM EST. It's going to be a long goal, so prepare yourselves.
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on April 15, 2010, 06:28:18 PM make it sunday, i have shit to do
Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, April 17th, 2010 Post by: darkeye14 on April 16, 2010, 01:15:14 AM Since Jiano was the one who wanted this impromptu in the first place, I'm going to be compliant to his will.
Edit: It's on Saturday, April 17th, at 5PM EST, as planned Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Lexkeeta on April 17, 2010, 04:01:32 PM I'll have to miss, I leave at 4:30 est

Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Sunday, May 16, 2010 Post by: bluephantom340 on May 15, 2010, 04:45:10 PM I'm hosting tomorrow's impromptu. Decide on a time and i'll see if it's good for me.
EDIT: I can't do it. I'll be busy tomorrow. Homework. Title: Re: Impromptu Speedrunning - Saturday, February 27th, 2010 Post by: Kzar5678 on March 24, 2011, 09:51:01 PM When will the next Impromptu be? After looking at an Impromptu is, I kinda want to join in. The last one was almost over a year ago, but maybe we can restart this. I think it would be fun. Maybe Kaztalek can join in too. =) Time to prove how great a MM player you are Kaz.

In the irc if you join #speedrunslive you can look for some people to race OoT/MM and many other games. |
