My dad showed me the glitch to clip into the blocks and I thought you might be to get a xpos boost from it, and you can. This loses a lot if framerules and shouldn't be used in runs, just wanted to share it

Cool, but it has been known for a long time.

could wrong warp possibly have been done by someone before andrewg discovered it? all it would have taken would be someone doing this glitch and then going down the pipe

i've heard a lot of people they didn't know how to get to the vine so they discovered primitive wrong warps instead, some even claiming that they did similar methods that we use today like bumps. i'm almost certain that quite a few people did wrong warps and just assumed it was a legit part of the game

I already knew about the wall glitch, this can be another way to do the walljump easily on 8-4, but there isn't really an another use for it if your going for sub-5 minutes. Plus, that will lose time anyway, so it really is only used for people who want to do the wrong warp easily. Still a good glitch though, it's just that it won't be helpful on WR attempts, or sub-5 attempts.

Yeah, I never meant for it to be fast at all. it just looked cool and was easy

I didn't discover the wrong warp. I just developed the real-time speedrun method. It's been known since 1985 I would guess to be honest.

I completely agree with you Andrew, even though you discovered wrong warp for speedruns, this method might have been discovered in like the 80s or 90s.

Yes, my dad said he used to do the vine warp a lot and just randomly go down the pipe and end up in the warp zone without knowing the cause.
