Hi everyone,

I was wondering if it could be possible to enforce the usage of the GBA Bios and not using Frame Skip to get into Start Game faster.

From what I know (and I'm getting more information), not having GBA Bios set up on the emu makes the emu run games a bit faster than intended.

Also banning the frame skip to get into main menu faster avoids any suspicion that a runner who is playing on emu might be using turbo for brief moments.

Edit: I was shown this thread as example of research on how using the Bios improve emulation https://www.speedrun.com/knidl/thread/3rnvd

(This is no means wanting do disqualify any run, but if this game gets competition, would be a good way to make it as fair as possible as I'm not gonna make everyone buy a GameCube with Game Boy Player and the game when I use an Everdrive)

Checking the new guide https://www.speedrun.com/mkds/guide/jepmb which tells which are the best karts for snaking (and the stage to practice them https://www.speedrun.com/mkds/guide/atlq0), while also having watched Keverage's run at AGDQ using ROB which actually I was shocked (considering I was used to see some vods with either Dry Bones or Yoshi) triggered the question in the title.
