@Cyberdemon531 The only one who's shilling here is you.
Changing the way the event is run for the worse (imo) in exchange for money? I'd call that selling out. Whatever you want to call it, I'm against it.
I thought the other reason for NASA was to avoid selling out like GDQ. I'd rather pay $50 for a venue than sell out, especially if it comes at the cost of growing the marathon. It's one thing to say you're prioritizing runners, but it seems to me like it'd just screw over the viewers.
What exactly do you expect to happen that wouldn't be allowed on Twitch? I don't think their rules are overly strict, just don't be completely retarded and it'll be fine. NASA can be free of the rules and whatever of GDQ, GDQs rules aren't Twitch's rules.
I can pretty much guarantee that if I told a bunch of my viewers/other runners that I was doing a marathon run, then sent a link to a site other than Twitch, most of them wouldn't watch. I probably wouldn't.
Sorry, didn't see this until now. Never expected this page to get any traffic whatsoever. Also I know at least 2 other people have speedrun this game, they just never submitted their runs, but I'm not alone.
As for advice, the game is mostly just memorizing where you need to put your cursor next, movement optimizations, and getting lucky with the fight sequences.
The only trick in the run is when you click on an object/person you can interact with while the screen is transitioning/fading in, you'll leave the screen immediately in the same direction you came from. For example, right at the beginning, as you walk into the dress shop, you can position your cursor where the dress is going to be, then you mash click and hold the dialogue skip button. This will make you buy the dress the second you enter the store, then leave immediately.
Good luck!
