I'm a long time lurker of streams and all that. I've just now decided to kill time and actually attempt a speedrun or two, even if my times aren't up to snuff.
Welcome to the community, Unresolved! I wish you the best of luck on your runs!! :)
And everything that SatanSpeedruns said is spot-on. The most important part of speedrunning is the fun and joy you get out of it.
... and if any of us ever catches you ¤not¤ having fun, we will tie you down and force you to have fun... or something.
And if you think Tom is bluffing, you're in for a world of hurt :P
Ah don't be panic, stay cool dude & remember that "CINDERELLA is proof that a new pair of shoes can change your life" also you can do one more thing "Life is short smile while you still have teeth" :)
