So, I noticed the world record holder for Paper Mario Color Splash (All Flags) has been anonymized, and I looked further into the details and was... incredibly disappointed in the runner. I remembered, however, that the world record runner made some improvements to the run that are not on the public records of their notes I can find from their first All Flags attempt, and I was looking to study up in case I ever wanted to try taking a crack at at least trying the route, even if I have a very slim chance of realistically hitting that time. That said, given the nature of the actions of the runner, I do not particularly wish to bring more attention to them than I need to to find the run. I was wondering if anyone had any archives of the footage from the World Record (10 hour 30 minute 17 second) run, and if they did if it would be acceptable for them to hook me up with said archive? I have been looking frantically for a few days now, and I am starting to believe I will not be able to find it without help. Tried posting just a moment ago and it would not post, also apologies for any typos or odd phrasing; keyboard is busted
You will more than likely have better luck asking the current community for the game about the strats used. More than likely they will know what may strats were used.
Do you know the best way to get in contact with specific community members? I am not yet used to the framework of new forums yet; would it be better to try contacting other recordholders in the community directly via their profile information, or might there be a more generalized community Discord or forum group I am just missing?
EDIT: I believe I may have found a method. I just figured out each game has its own forum.
