Same frame, two days apart

Frivolous post alert.

Thought this was fun to see...

GTAce99 and Myself (Darpey) have been in a battle trading pb "bops" back and forth for the past month or more. GTAce99 got a 4:59.174 yesterday (1/26/18), and I got the exact same time today (1/27/18)

Darpey used -3.62 (wait 1 framerule), and GTAce99 started immediately, so we're on different rulesets.

I left the audio on both streams. We both missed a single framerule, but in different places. First GTAce99 misses the 8-2 "fast" jump, then Darpey misses the bump at the end of 8-3.

It was cool to see where you lost and made up frames from eachother in 8-4.

Wait a minute. Ok, so since Darpey saves a framerules in 8-2, he enters 8-3 on the same rule as GTAce, but loses it back in 8-3. If they were on the same time entering 8-4, the bowser patterns would be different because they both lost 1 framerules and started at different times.

If you both lost a framerule in the middle of the run, and you started on different times, you would be a framerule apart entering 8-4.

This means that either; Darpey didn't lose a framerule, GTAce lost an extra framerule, or GTAce split late or Darpey split early.

Look at the hammers from bowser, they are different. Both browsers jump forward but they're different hammers

GTAce uses -3.27, Darpey uses -3.62. When I looked at the spreadsheet to time both runs, they were both forward. This is just a mere coincidence, as both of these runners use different start times.

ok, I thought they were the same, I didn't look that closely.

We're on the exact same framerule on 8-3 when we're off-sync... Watch the way the Bros act, they're both identical

@Darpey I got that part, I just meant that one of your splits could've been late (probably GTAce's), since he doesn't use the -3.62 or -3.27 countdown.

I got a run that looks like it should be a high 4:58 - but at least when comparing the videos side by side, the axe is removed at 4:59.174 again, but bowser drops like a 4:58

Has anyone ever seen mario HOVER? Skip to the end of the video and watch what anti-gravity mario does above the axe. He spends several frames suspended nonmoving taking his sweet time to grab that axe... meanwhile the game (other than the axe) finished on normal schedule, because the floor and chain are removed at a FASTER rate.

It's frame 17723 on spreadsheet, with -3.62 --- according to the spreadsheet it's 4:58.991 with 7 lost frames.

that's so weird; i dont know how that was possible tbh

It's frame 17723 on the spreadsheet + 7 frames lost on axe. This should make the final time 4:58.991

If you look, there was a significant difference in when the axe disappears.
