Yeah, your WR was a great run.

Here's the VOD: http://www.twitch.tv/ffatv/c/5874270
Or youtube, if you prefer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEZE2nq ... tube_gdata
I just did, managed an unclean 18:06 with a couple deaths on my third completion. I'm not even uploading the video because I'll be going for sub-18 soon, was going to do it today, but I lost my focus and I'm dying too much now, so I'll try again tomorrow with a fresh mind. I think I can pull it down to 17:30 if I manage no mistakes, I mean, based on the main time wastes I had in this run and the previous one.
Nice job Yeti. That run was great. Overall it was pretty clean. I don't think you are maxed out either. The routes you took on some of the levels could be improved quite a bit with out adding that much risk.

Eddy, how many speedrun 0th routes are you following vs safe marathon strats?


Also big thanks to Yeti for bring exposure to N in the larger speedrunning community. I would love to see a race next year or at SGDQ if they will have you back. I had always thought that N wasn't as prominent in the speedrunning community as it should be for its game type. Though I can see that our focus on individual level highscoring and speedrunning does not fit as well with the whole game running that most speedrunners are in to. Also individual levels is at such a high level at this point that taking a 0th involves like several hundred suicides so it is not the best for spectators.
<@Izzy> Holy balls, sweet run.
<@gloomp> Holy sweet, balls run.
<@Izzy> Sweet, balls run holy.

<@Izzy> Sweet run, ballsy hole.

I think a race would be awesome. If someone fell behind, it would be interesting to see if they opt for faster but riskier strats.

As for individual level scoring, yeah, while I would enjoy watching Eddy attempt hundreds of 0th attempts in a row, it wouldn't be a good idea for SGDQ because people who are not as familiar with N's intricacies are unlikely to appreciate/enjoy such an exhibition.

Damn Yeti, it felt like you had been here for longer for me too xD

If you don't feel like doing a live commentary, perhaps you can dub over a commentary over the top in post production. Perhaps talking about backup plans and what you were happy about/not so happy about etc.
Yeah I don't think I'll commentate it live, to avoid losing my focus too much, and because it take a lot of tries to actually get a good run :P But I'll probably edit in some commentary once its done as you mentioned.

I tried a bit more today (not a lot, still in exams), but I couldn't improve my run. I had a couple 18:10 runs, and some other fucked up runs.

@TRO: I'm not really going for mad routes at all, although I do have changed several ones. But the goal is basically to avoid any major fuckup and pull the safe routes relatively clean.

I think a race would be great. I'll be sure to post here and/or in IRC when the submissions for SGDQ open up. If any high scorers are willing to practice some column runs for SGDQ (and can make it to the event ofc) I think it would be great to submit a race.

Can you and Nightfirecat and somebody else do a column 10 run? That would be epic.

I dunno how well a three person race could be streamed but it would be cool. I feel like we should show one of the harder columns though, since it's hard for people who haven't played the game much to appreciate smooth movement and execution when it's not on super difficult levels :p

There should be one person racing who hasn't played much before so people can see the skill required.

Alrighty, here's a commentated (not live) sub-18 Column 00 Speedrun: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ4LO_IFcdw
Final time: 17:51

I don't want to spoil the run too much, but if you think that time is tight, wait until 9-1 :P As I say in the video, there's 30 seconds worth of major fuckups, which means 17:20 is totally plausible (and shouldn't be any harder than this run, its just avoiding those ridiculously huge mistakes I had in 8-3, 9-1 and 9-3). So overall, I'm happy to get sub-18 finally, but really dissapointed with the run because of how it ended xD

You could sense the pressure you were feeling once you got to episode 08. Really good commentary. (You have a sexy voice; do you get that a lot? :D)

Anyway, bad luck with 09-1. That must have been been crushing. Congrats on the new WR, and I can't wait to see you break 17:30.

Just watched Eddy's run. I can definitely see a 17:30 or so, since you were about 40 seconds ahead of my splits going into the last episode. A huge amount of the time you save versus my run is just through your movement, which is leagues cleaner than mine. In the first two episodes alone you saved about 10 seconds with the same routes as me, and later episodes you were gaining easily five or more seconds just by being smooth. Also, that 8-2 route was totally new to me, I might have to try it out. Very cool.

Really? If I was serious about breaking the world record, I would have been analysing each speedrun 0th in the 00s column...

I'd definitely looked at the 0th and stuff, but the 0th route is too risky, and once I found the route I used in my run I was just happy to have something consistent. There are definitely a lot of places in the run that I was slow to optimize, since there wasn't much competition in columns until now.

Haha thanks, that's good to know :P Means I'll keep commentating future runs :P I'll definitely aim for that time, hopefully with success.

Thanks man :D And yeah right? It's so tricky, its like there's some N's Murphy's law which dictates that if you are going good, you have to fuck it up. I remember several occasions where I said to myself "this run is quite decent", only to screw it up immediatly after.

I really enjoyed watching that Eddy, along with the commentary. I was a little surprised you used the slower route on 00-2, especially since its only the 3rd level in the column. Is that tricky enough for even you that you don't feel confident enough in getting the thwump wj consistently?
[16:24] <@golfkid> I'm pretty sure I will literally scream if I die on the last column of 78-4 at this point
[16:25] <trance> Oh, yeah. That level.
[16:29] <@golfkid> lol
[16:30] <@golfkid> It looks so simple

Thanks man, that idea for 00-2 is crazy though :P I don't get it consistently, and even if its at the beggining it would be very frustrating to go for that for a mere second saver. Given how the current WR run is, thats completely unnecessary yet. I wouldn't do it until the score reached 17 mins and 10-15 secs at least, when individual seconds would start to be of such importance.

Also I'm just going to throw some maths in. If you had a 90% success for each level, you'd require almost 200 tries to finish a column speedrun. With a 95% success, it goes down to 13, which is pretty good actually. But what I'm trying to say is that you need to make sure most of your routes are incredibly safe to pull off, or your final success percentage just blows up.

Great run Eddy. Tough luck on 09-1, but that is how a column run will go. Doing 50 levels in a row flawlessly is near impossible in this game. Even for the the best of the best it seems.

For those who are curious; the sum of speedrun 0ths for column 00 is 35,538 frames. Which is 14:48.45

I did some practice runs on column 00 today. I don't think I'm using all the best routes and I have a weird tendency to randomly die ten times in a row on some simple level later in the run, so I only managed a 23:08 so far, but I'm steadily getting better. I also made a nice stream layout for N, so you can expect some of that pretty soon, along with more Wings of Vi. I've already been doing some Vi speedruns on stream and I'm really enjoying it so far.

Would you be willing to share your layout? Personally, I've had a tough time figuring a decent layout of N, since the Adobe Flash player it uses doesn't want to play nice with OBS for me. Also, what's your twitch channel name? Come by the #n-highscores irc channel sometime, especially if you're getting ready to stream anything N related. Even if you're not streaming, more people in the (more silent than not) chat is only a good thing.

It seems Flash Player doesn't work properly with window capture in OBS, so I use monitor capture instead and crop it to only show the playable area of the N window. I play in fullscreen so the game is always in the exact same position, which means I don't have to adjust anything for it to look good every time. Then I made a LiveSplit layout to nicely fill the rest of the empty space on the side. It looks like this: http://puu.sh/fh2EH/63a7a13ab0.png I can also send you the layout and splits files if you want them. The font I'm using is the same one used in N, you can download it at http://www.miniml.com/fonts/uni0553/index.html. If LiveSplit doesn't allow you to use it after installing restart your computer and it should work. That's all, hope it helps :)
EDIT: Forgot to mention I have a second monitor where I keep OBS and LiveSplit, and I record LiveSplit with window capture. It's super convenient and makes life a lot easier than if you only have a single monitor to work with.

I downloaded NohBoard, made a custom keyboard file and put it under my splits on the layout. I think this looks pretty slick: http://puu.sh/fhxDz/0b294b0358.png

I got 19:36 on column 00 during the stream today, it's really bad but I promised Golfkid I would put up a highlight if I got a new PB so here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bADUa9VHRL4
Also improved my Wings of Vi PB by five minutes, which was amazing :D
