World Record Historical Data Gathering

I didn't see this thread until now, but felt that I'd like to add a few details.

I think it's worth mentioning in the first post that the three runs by me were done on the PAL-version of the game. As far as I know, there are no gameplay differences between PAL and NTSC (although PAL probably has a small relative advantage by getting less lag, due to the slower framerate).

While I don't think converting PAL to NTSC for leaderboard purposes is a good idea, it could still be noted that 13:48 PAL "corresponds" to 11:28 NTSC. At least such a conversion gives an idea of what the known strats back then could produce.

I don't have a habit of saving my intermediate pbs, so the two first listed runs were deleted a long time ago. I checked the SDA-thread again to see what I wrote. I think you got the dates wrong. I edited the same post in that thread for updates. The post was from the 11th of August 2009, but the 14:10 was from an edit on the 280809 and the 14:02 from the day after.

zakky's 10:58 was the first time the ship glitch was done in a new record run.

And thanks for making the overview!
