Some homebrew application called cleanrip from what I remember. It's a bit of a complicated process so I'd only recommend it if you have absolutely no other options

His run is really impressive and congrats to him on getting it, but you don't need to make a forum thread for every single thing that happens. Congratulate him on Discord or Twitter or wherever else, but making a thread is just a waste of time.

The way we time them is by removing every black screen or level intro banner from the run. I wouldn't recommend doing it for your own runs though since every run slower than 24:59 (or 25:00 in some cases) is timed in real-time.

This might help. Haven't done it myself though so you're on your own when it comes to installing and setting it up https://github.com/ROMaster2/LiveSplit.VideoAutoSplit

Due to personal reasons, he thought that it'd be best for him to leave the speedrunning scene

I would highly recommend joining the NSMBW Speedrunning Discord. There's a ton of resources in there that could help you learn

There's a pretty big difference between modding/emulating a game from 19 years ago and doing the same for a game that came out 3 years ago. Those two things aren't comparable at all lol

in the search bar, I found 12 different accounts that link to random websites, have essentially the same name and have no runs on their profile. https://imgur.com/gallery/etPn3zt

This setup works pretty well for me

With the current rulesets:
-Emu is allowed for NSMBDS
-VC is allowed for NSMBW and NSMBDS
-NSMBU and NSLU can be played on the deluxe version
-NSMB2 needs to be played on some sort of 3ds.

A suggestion I have is to give verifiers the ability to "automatically verify runs" for runs that aren't their own. It's kind of a hassle having to resubmit every single run you have to edit, go to the runs awaiting verification tab, then verify it. If that's too hard to implement, I'd suggest just giving verifiers the ability to automatically verify every run since in most of the communities that even appoint verifiers, self-verification is a big no-no.

Requesting the removal of Ongnissim from Newer Super Mario Bros. Wii. Most of the mods are pretty inactive (online once a month at best), but he's the worst out of all of them. Both of his contacts haven't been used in a very long time, so I have no way to get him to remove himself.

it'd definitely be faster, but I'm not sure if multiplayer is allowed for 99 lives

After a few days of discussion, we've determined that the majority of the community wants video required for all future runs. Because of that, all runs from August 12th, 2020 onward require a video. We've determined that it's best to leave runs from before that date alone.

Not trying to clog the thread here, but it's pretty bold to assume that they're under the age of 13 after seeing one sentence from them.

Yeah, as he said, I'd highly recommend joining the discord. I'd like to think we're fairly helpful people. Two general tips I have would be to focus on not dying rather than doing fast strats and to practice later levels just as much as levels at the beginning.

I don't really see the point in making guides for them. the route is just any%, and then getting to the worlds with the star coins as fast as possible, and then playing the level in w9. I don't really see another 9-X category being added, even if it's ran given the community and the mods just aren't interested in adding more of them.

no, because that would change it for all of the characters. and you dm current mods of this game. I wouldn't count on getting it though since this game isn't in need of moderation according to one that I asked.
