Reminder that Established Titles is a pretty massive scam that doesnt gives you land, a title, or plant trees in your name.
It’s self advertised as a novelty gift…..
@@Mike_Dubayou it's falsely advertised you mean, there is absolutely no way that their advertisement is legal as it's misleading and the product is false.
@@Endeva09 I looked into it a few months ago, and their website doesn’t say that you actually get land, rather you get assigned a plot in your name. As far as not planting trees go, I don’t know. From what I remember they just partner with organizations that do plant trees. I didn’t investigate those organizations so unless they are fraudulent, that claim seems reasonable as well.
@@Faroesxit’s not about the title, the scam part is that they don’t actually plant trees…
@@BarkofthePheonix and you have to actually live on the land to get a title
Holy hell that was real? I have to go track down and apologize to the neighbor kid that said he drove through the train gap when we were little and I called him a liar
Just because you can do it doesn’t mean he wasn’t lying to you..... 😊
How else were you supposed to get through? Did you just wait?
@@bmbterps... Yes...
@@michaelfryers1914 true. I just ran into the train 2 or 3 times if i missed it
@@michaelfryers1914 wow... Ya, I'm surprised you wouldn't try it. The worst case scenario was you would still hit the train and have to wait anyway
To fill in some missing pieces of history, Andy Launspach is believed to be the first to discover the ability to drive between the boxcars of the train back in the 1990s. I’m not aware of a more specific date of when it happened.
Also, one of my two fluke discoveries in the summer of 1997 was glitching through the fence in Kalimari Desert. I mentioned this in my farewell e-mail to the Kart 64 community later that year as my Internet access was expiring. Unfortunately I spent too long on the track experimenting for it to amount to any record, as it was common for me to spend literal hours on a track hunting for glitches. It would elude me for decades on how to recreate it (along with a fluke full-lap skip in Wario Stadium), which is in part why my scores ultimately suffered, knowing deep down that these two tracks surely had unfinished business.
Thankfully others have since recreated my two mysterious flukes decades later. In a way, it felt like vindication, as I was beginning to question my memory on how these flukes happened, and have since become visually disabled to have any hope of recreating the flukes myself. The torch is passed on.
Hey David, sorry to hear about your visual impairments. You were a big inspiration for me to start glitch hunting many, many years ago. I still visit the old website from time to time! Hope you're having a great life. Peace.

I don't think it's accurate to say that one person "discovered" driving between train cars. It seemed to be common knowledge shortly after the game came out. I knew about it since whenever I was playing it in '97. As he said in the video, it was just one of those things where you'd rather design your preferred route to avoid the trains, so you didn't have to rely upon a really tough trick in the middle of a speedrun, that may or may not even be worth the risk if there's a smarter route that avoids the train & is faster.
Damn man sorry to hear you have visual issues.
@@AkumaAPN sure that's fair but until someone actually mentions it or documents it no one gets credit then once those things happen they are the people who discovered it it's not fair to the others who discovered it but that's life and no one really knows who's actually the first
Established Titles, who has always been a questionable sponsor to begin with, was confirmed to be a scam this past week. No one should fault Abyssoft or any other content creator for doing an ad for them, as I'm sure they weren't unaware of that fact, but nobody should give Established Titles their money. Stay safe everyone!
It's been a scam for a little over TWO YEARS. Seriously, people are dumb. Shame on everyone who took this sponsor. No research was made. And I'm not talking about the recent stuff about it that came out, I'm talking about older ones calling this out for being a scam!
Yeah, once you’re in an agreement pulling out can be difficult or impossible legally.
If y'all wanna drop money on a title for shits and giggles, Sealand was always the better option
@@1stCallipostle or, you can just call yourself whatever you want as names are all made up anyway LMAO
It can be difficult to say no to, like, $10,000 in exchange for promoting this silly little Scotland thing that also plants trees. It sounds super harmless and is also pretty lucrative. It's a shame it's not real :(
i like how it went from “is desert tanko even possible?” to “you gata hit three in a row”
Gotta go the triple tanko
Babe wake up Abyssoft uploaded
Why was Babe asleep? The sun's out. Does Babe work midnights?
She was tired from watching my content all night.
@@Abyssoft shut up abyssoft this is about Babe
@@Abyssoft what a flex
She was tired after sleeping with abyssoft all night
That clip of mrpitt instant regretting a muscle memory'd reset is so sad.
It's I think what every speedrunner has nightmares about, you think you messed up on some specific trick, and you go to reset out of habit, only to discover to your horror that you actually landed it perfectly and you going to reset it just invalidated everything
It’s really the worst feeling, I had something like it a while ago, I had the best run I’d ever had and accidentally reloaded a quick save or paused, invalidating the run. It wasn’t quite as one in a billion as the fence clip, but it was still one of the best I’ve ever done.
Abney's reactions are golden, I think 10 fingers are enough to count how many times he strongly reacted to a WR. He's so used to it that he's always like "wr, yeah...", "oh, wr", "wr, nice" 🤣
Nah man, 5 fingers at best.
It's actually refreshing. The whole react fake bs is crap. If you struggle for a wr for months or years, fair enough. Get it on the 3rd day and celebrate like you won the football world cup... relax dude
I love watching MK64 world record history vids because I know at some point a VAJ clip is gonna play. The pure joy of his celebrations is so infectious, you can't help but love him for it!
and i was like "wOOOooooaOOOO"
Vaj is like an old friend, I'm always happy to see his goofy face in a video : )
Fun Fact: Established Titles is a scam. its literally illegal in Scotland, as the land does not comply with Scotland land owner laws. you will not legally be a Lord or Lady
You can call yourself whatever you want as names are arbitrary and not real. For legal procedures, however… might not wanna claim you’re a lord!
@Brian Clark as i said, "legally"
Yeah but I don't have the heart to tell my mom that. She's so happy about it.
@@CapDanAddams
I can't blame you either.
*Slaps roof of Kalimari Desert*
This bad boy can fit so much speedrunning in it.
"Current champ, Dan Burbank" seriously leaves a sour taste in my mouth
Yip.
lets go!!! that train is so pesky indeed... such a rich history on this track, mrpitt and dossey are forever in our hearts
Wait, I swear when i was younger prolly like 6 years ago, I remember doing a skip with my brother, where you use a star and run directly into the train out of bounds, and some reason it flips you out of bounds and puts you in a weird spot where you can complete the lap way faster. My brother was very good, he got the unofficial 3 lap record on Wario stadium and i clearly remember this skip.
Did Established Titles find a chest full of diamonds when they were planting their trees or something? Because every damn video I watch has an ad from them and I'm so done
Nope, just scamming people into giving them money for literally nothing, not even trees.
They must have a lot of money to sink into advertising, because they positively bombed youtube creators with sponsor opportunities
You really shouldn't accept sponsorship from established titles - they are scammers.
FYI, Established Titles is actually a scam. A lot of TH-camrs are falling victim to them.
I fail to see how it’s a scam. I read their website and understood what it was before any of this “scam” drama, and decided I wouldn’t buy. It’s not a scam for their customers not to read 🥴
@@Faroesx they pay TH-camrs to say things that are false advertising.
@@Faroesx giving youtubers a script that promotes false advertising is well, a scam in the truest sense
when you fall victim to getting money :((
@Faroes4 in the ads it says that you can "legally become a lord" you can't. And you have to pay like 130 dollars for the paper and frame.
Love this vid, nice to show more than most people do about how I thought desertenko was possible, and its even funnier that the copy paste i created after you named it desertenko is even the best part. I will never forget the failed kd fence clip but thats what it takes to show that hope and dreams can be reality.
I’m glad there’s a 36 minute video about Kalimari Desert records.
It's still wild to me that over 25 yeas after its release, and a massive dedicated community to TT, you'd think that any improvements to be made would be very minor, a few hundredths to a few tenths of a second. But we still have records being shaved by tens of seconds years later, with it being unclear what the actual low barrier is for many tracks.
Fucking amazing.
The video feels weird without mentioning Dan’s hoarding of world records. Dan ain’t the people’s champ
I took 40 minutes out of my day to watch this
It was totally worth it
Been 40 minutes since i made this comment
That moment after the player managed to clip that fence and immediately reset the game has happened to me when doing repetitive tasks like in Breath of the Wild when getting rupees from the lottery guy.
This is absolutely wild... I randomly thought about the accidental fence clip reset YESTERDAY and just saw this video today. Great video as always!
Out of all maps, you choose my favorite map, thank you Abyssoft
Right? Fun map and AWESOME soundtrack
How much did Established Titles pay you?
I might not be a speed runner; but some of the things they do can be worked into normal gameplay amongst friends. I love it! Something for everyone!!!😆
Ohhhh guess you haven’t heard Est Titles is a scam. You can’t do anything officially through them
Be careful with the sponsor, it is actually a Japanese company and there's a lot of shady things behind it.
There are TH-cam videos exposing this. Do your research my dudes
Chinese company afaik.
They are also responsible for Kamikoto knives, which apparently are trash quality.
I just watched a video on how established titles is a scam and then the algorithm gives me a video with it as a sponsor 🤔
Amazing video dude, I really like the variety of videos you post too. I hope you can grow to be as big as Summoning Salt one day because your content is amazing!
Summoning Salt sucks ass
Matthias will truly go down in MK64 history. Man was absolutely determined to smash records and chew bubblegum.
I actually have the record for this. I did it in 37 seconds.
He’s an incredible gamer for sure, but no one should hold *every* record. That’s just unfair, and destroys the fun, even if they are genuinely the best player. It’s like when you play Mario Kart with your friends but you speedrun the game and they just play it at parties, so you always come first, they can’t have any success and you never get any competition. After a few rounds, no one wants to play any more, and you all stop.
I love it when RTA players manage to do TAS only strats
"Uh, yeah, this is comfortably TAS-only"
_6 months later_
"To get a competitive time, you need to perform it three times consecutively"
I love how quickly things in speedrun communities go from "This is humanly impossible don't even bother" to "I did it 3 times in a single run perfectly and broke the old record by 3 minutes"
ESTABLISHED TITLES is a scam, You won’t be receiving real plots in Scotland, You will only receive a item that was made in Scotland.
This was an exciting watch! The world of speedrunning is amazing, the amount of work that goes into each attempt, stunning. Simply stunning.
No it isn’t
I never bought into the things where you buy a parcel of land or a distant star with your name on it.
They're just real-world NFTs. But I'm glad they're sponsoring. At least they don't cripple the environment.
They're just a symbolic thing to justify supporting tree planting bro.
A'ight, that's cool. Not at all what I had in mind.
We got these dumb schemes in the UK. Except it's for, like, a square-foot of swamp in some asscrack of Scotland, and people buy into it because they get a slip of official-looking paper that calls them 'Lord' or 'Lady'. Bragging rights only, no trees.
You can call me Lord, bro.
This was recently exposed to be a scam. Look it up.
Damn, I _never_ miss.
This track always frustrated me as I got in between the cars by fluke, once, then spent forever trying to recreate it. I'm glad I stopped my speed running quest back in 99. It stressed me out.
The song at the start is an absolute banger
hey check that sponsor, I read they're shady
"Experimenting with shrooms."
Lol, Established Titles has had its ass handed to it this week.
"All the experimenting with shrooms on this track was done without that knowledge." I'm glad it worked out in the end!
This is a really well made video, can always count on you for great content
I genuinely love watching these videos so much.
God this track is pretty annoying what with the small road and the train! I'm pretty impressed with what the speedrun community has done with this game! Loved the video Abyssoft
Please drop Established Titles as your sponsor, Abyssoft.
It does not give you the title of Lord or Lady; Scottish Law prohibits the assigning of said title regardless of your name “being placed” on any portion of land.
Still don't know why they named a desert after seafood.
It’s a pun on the Kalahari Desert
Ok this video is just awesome. I love videos like this anyway but the way you used storytelling in it was so well done
i love it when you make speedrunning videos on your channel
Just subscribed. This was the first video I've seen of yours. Loved it.
So have to give credit where it’s do summoning salt got me into these kind of videos but abysoft keeps me coming back watching them thank you for the hard work you put into these videos keep up the amazing work my friend
Awesome video again abysoft!
Should do one for every track 😅
It was worth the time watching this awesome video. Thank you sir.
My favourite speedrun doco channel
Great video! Super well researched and well put together. For your next video is it possible for you to lower the volume of the world record achievers excitement? It gets a little loud in my headphones.
Really enjoyed the vid, Abyss!
Neat analysis video! Thanks for uploading!
VAJ is such a mood oh my god xD I need to watch stream archives of the dude, he's got some serious energy xD
Awesome job mate
Wait didn’t we all know about the short cuts since the 90s tho, warrior stadium (the lumps), princes track after the ramp, Mario track inside the overpass, I think they alll have glitches but this was fun to watch loved it
Most tracks, yes. But not this one, no one managed to break Kalimari Desert like this until recently.
Great video, and milk those "Established Titles" for all the money you can, but everyone else be aware that is a scam.
@Abyssoft Please don’t take sponsorship from scammers. ET is a scam, please research it a bit and distant yourself from it. Other channels have come under fired for the same thing.
Such a high quality video!
Reminder: Established Titles is a Scam.
The website may not directly say you will own land, but the way they have youtubers advertise it makes it seem like you are going to be the owner of land.
35:40 the king returns! That line will never get old!
Great video as always! Been missing your iron man Pokémon streams
I've got an SMRPG randomizer to finish, then some Scarlet / Violet to stream, but I'll be back to Ironmon eventually
@@Abyssoft When's the next SMRPGR stream?
Established Titles is a scam. You should avoid working with them in the future.
@24:27 “So all the experimenting with shrooms on this track...” woah, can I join?
26:32 I could not stop cracking up laughing. I felt the pain on that oh no 😭😂😂😂😂😂
I want to thank you for another great video, and I want to thank Hershey for playing the *old* Christmas jingle on your video. Fuck that jazzy shit, I want Christmas chimes!
well now we're gonna need a part 3 from summoning salt aren't we? prolly sometime in late 2023 if there are more discoveries soon is my guess
This is actually my favorite Mario kart track because of the railroad crossings
I remember when the flap first shroom was to the right after the train before the hill hop method
Glitch/course hunters: "This probably won't be useful."
Every speed runner: "And I took that personally."
Abney is an absolute legend
Love your content
Yo, I’ve waited for like a year to watch this since the news of the KD tenko flap. Catharsis. Thank you for making.
Established titles is a scam. Not creators fault
Love your videos !
Very nice video essay
Thumbnails been looking good
Thanks, I've been really happy working with JV on them
Mario Kart 64 is so interesting with all of its environmental hops
I got a chuckle from the thumbnail
25 years looking for the skip in a real run and then someone almost instantly finds something better lol.
I wonder if you could send a message to 1996 Super Mario Kart community telling them that current WR is 0:46.46 how long it would take them to figure out how.
Never thought I’d be so invested in Mario Kart track times. TH-cam strikes again
I've got another one planned, should be out in the next few months
It’s time to go to bed because Mario kart speed runs don’t pop up in my feed unless I need to go to bed
4th vid in a row sponsored by established titles. they booted raid shadow legends out of youtube or what
It has me curious as to if people can do this on the Mario Kart 7 version.
hate the youtube notification system, alway get notification when scam accounts try to get my info but it won't show up the uploads from the channels I've got the bell and stuff smh.
Just curious, you're saying you have the bell turned on but didn't receive a notification for this video?
Excellent
Reminder that creators who take scummy sponsors without knowing their scumminess cannot just reupload without the sponsorship, pin a comment decrying them, etc. because of the contracts they have to agree to. The best you can reasonably expect is for the creator to not take the sponsorship in the future.
It's different when you take a sponsor that is widely known for being scummy but at the time this video was made it was only just being exposed.
wtf? a racing game's record is made by driving yourself into a wall!!!
Established titles has recanted on many things that they have been saying and they've been allowing content creators and influencers to say whatever they want about the product and not correcting it until recently when people were making a stink about it. Their commercials used to say you can put lord or lady on your id with it. And that you can own land. You dont own the land or any rights to it and you can NOT use it to put lord or lady on your official documents
One of the bestest tracks.
Love the upload man! Thanks for this it’s a gift
Insane stuff
26:36 Isn't the problem not that he restarts the attempt, but rather that he paused? You can hear him freak out before he selects retry, he even pauses slightly on it before selecting it. Pauses aren't allowed in these speedruns, so he effectively voided the attempt as soon as he paused, meaning all he could really do was select retry after he did so.
That aside, great video as always.
My train always appears on the second lap, not the third lap.
Gotta go fast
@@Abyssoft I always get below 39 seconds on Kalimari Desert.
