United StatesI've got a few games I've messed with running that I can't even use a timer on because of how the game handles itself (mostly old jank PC games). Even when I do run, I just have a small little timer in the corner if I even feel like it.
As @Garsh said, timers really don't have much of an effect on validity, and you should always retime the video yourself.
In my experience, it helps if the guide:
- Sticks to explaining mechanics
- Has pictures where they're worth more than words
- Assumes that the player is new to the game
- Has a good amount of quick reference information that remains useful for experienced runners
- Good use of emphasis (bold, italics, color highlighting)
I've come to like guides just being text documents, but that's just so I can download them to have them at hand whenever.
I've written some guides before, but I can't say they're that good. While I like routing, I tend to find writing extensive guides kinda boring despite being a long-winded person.
I found this guide to be rather top tier, personally: https://www.speedrun.com/ffcc/guide/g4kpi
What the heck did you just freakin' say about me, you little delinquent? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in clown academy, and I’ve been involved in numerous magic tricks in birthday parties, and I have over 300 confirmed clients. I am trained in extreme miming and I’m the top ventriloquist in the entire UN Jester Forces. You are nothing to me but just another plebian. I will make laugh your guts out with the velocity the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my cultured words. You think you can get away with saying that garbage to me over the Internet? Think again, dingus. As we speak, I am contacting my extensive family of well trained psychics across Europe and your darkest secrets are being discovered right now so you better prepare for the storm, worm. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your post. You’re totally a laughingstock, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can make a fool of you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my mimicry. Not only am I the most extensively trained mime, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the ACME Corporation and I will use it to its full extent to make you laugh your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little worm. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “funny” post was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have not hit that grimy enter key. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you bore. I will rain comedy all over you and you will drown in it. The joke's on you, kiddo.
You know what is up? The 21st of September, of the 21st month of 2020's, of the 21st year of the 21st century.
It's now the 22nd of September (at least where I'm at), so we can now all remember it.

Nobody ever submits runs to the games I mod, so it's not like I can use it woweesmug
If we're going by viewcount, Wikipedia says it's Baby Shark: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most-viewed_YouTube_videos
But we all know that's a big lie, because it should be one of these two:
Yeah you can, in the dirt like you'd use a stick.
You can also do it like Zorro, but that's besides the point. Or I guess, with the point.
I guess these are both the point.
Do you get my point?
