I gave up running All C-sides months ago because I couldn’t beat my old PB of 9:30 something and my only two recorded runs were both rejected because I didn’t follow rules regarding timing and proving the game version. I got back in a month or so ago and grinded until I near lost my mind and yesterday I finally PB’d, 8:22.367. It got verified! I decided to “take a break” but the next day I went back to try certain C-sides with the Joy-con D-pads instead of the control stick and I was finding some surprising consistency. I did some piss runs and the last run I was gonna do today I PB’D AGAIN. SUB 8, 7:45.409. VERIFIED AGAIN! I’M BACK BABY!!!!!!! It just feels great to commit to the grind and get a massive payoff.

I got rejected for Celeste C-Sides a SECOND time and I was 40th place with it too :/ third time’s the charm I guess

I don’t really speedrun that much besides Texas Instruments TI-30XIIS Calculator All Errors% speedrun in math class (no leaderboard exists so by default I have WR). I mostly just grind for mediocre Mario Kart TT times and I play Smash. BUT, I actually do have a pending time for Celeste All C-sides category, if it gets verified (it’s not on a capture card so it could very well get rejected) it’s 55th place. My SOB according to my main file would be 20th in the world, but that would require a deathless run, and that’s not happening any time soon. I’ll still push for top 30, I’m kinda clean at Summit and Ridge.
