I did this run offstream because I was expecting a call (that I never received) and didn't want to screw up the stream if I had to take it. Sorry about that.

Anyway, this was one messy rollercoaster of a run. At one point I was as much as 5:30 ahead of my PB, but in the end I'll have to settle for this. One major route change with the Bog Easy cleanup saved about 45 seconds, while the rest followed the same route.

Major mistakes (or minor mistakes on easy tricks), without which this run might have been about 5-6 minutes ahead of PB:

  • Temporarily forgetting my route in Chapter 2 cleanup and postgame cleanup
  • Taking the wrong paths on
  • Bad RNG plus bad improvised route in Mean Street South lost me 30 seconds right off the bat.
  • Dying in Fort Wasteland when the Slobber crushed me during his introductory cutscene, which cost one minute.
  • Panicking in the first trip to Autotopia when I didn't get the Turp Guardians I needed, costing me about two minutes.
  • Bad first phase of Mad Doctor but excellent second phase, which cost me 30 seconds.
  • Almost throwing the run away at the very end; I was 1:46 ahead going into Repairing Autotopia and barely scraped out a PB by the end.

That's not to say it was all bad obviously. Solid execution for the most part and I had amazing bunny luck in Fort Wasteland (as well as Train Tunnels and Floatyard, but in those cases Oswald ruined it for me). I also got incredibly lucky with a third Tint guardian in Rainbow Falls, allowing me to end the Diorama 2 fight much faster. Speaking of, all three first-trip Dioramas went perfectly and they're likely to stay gold for a long time. Additionally the boss fights (aside from phase 1 of the Mad Doctor) were all gold splits.

So yeah, still a lot of work to do. That being said, this run was a particularly insane effort and I'm glad I pulled it off. Now I have to beat it!
