Hi, my name is Jacob I've from Lousiana USA and have the reflexes of a fruit rollup so personally I would say I'm terrible for speedrunning, but I'm trying to give it a shot. Initially when I heard of this place I thought it was just a big leaderboard for speedruns I've known about here for a while I had no idea it was this huge community though.
Um, as for an introduction I am 14 and am currently practicing Resident Evil 4(NG Pro Any% [PS2]), Bushido Blade(Story Complete, and Slash 100), and considering Ninja Gaiden(SNES Trilogy Version), Epic Mickey(Any% [Wii]), Sonic the Hedgehog 2(Complete% Mega Collection ver. [GCN]), and Tony Hawk's Project 8(Any% [PS2]). I want to kind of experiment to see what I can do so I'm trying to get a decent variety of games mixed together to get a feel for what I might be better at.
I've been watching speedruns for a long while now and have finally decided to commit to it myself, though I don't really stream most of my stuff cause I don't have a twitch following and my setup is very low quality. I am really interested in being a part of a great community like this. Honestly I thought that speedrunning was a decentralized mess of just streamers who streamed and a few that made into in the A/GDQ events.
Super freaking happy to know it's alive, well, and growing.
