    Dude Johnstone, thank you for doing what you do. I just finished a Professor Oak challenge on a physical cartridge of Sapphire today. Your videos are super fun and informative, and you have a fantastic way with explanations and humor. Funnily I've had to rewatch some videos because of the late hour and I found myself being lulled to sleep by your voice. Hey, maybe as a future video you could find an original Prima's Official Strategy Guide and read the whole thing cover to cover to help us Poké-insomniacs sleep dude! Thanks for doing what you do man, good night!

      I'm unsure if that would be very good, as there are only 500 runners. Maybe others just put more time into it. I'm surprised how low a 2:0X is, which in my opinion is pretty dang good. For context Mario times are a LOT LESS OPTIMIZED in the middle of the pack.

    Honestly I'm glad you went with any% glitchless... personally I enjoy watching any speedruns, even ones with arbitrary code execution and things like that, because the precision is always beyond impressive. However, the comment sections on those videos are always spammed with "well this is stupid it doesn't take talent to just cheat through the game" comments and it's nice not to have to read those. Fantastic work improving your PBs in such a short time, hoping to see you go even further with speedrunning!

Thank you for your sacrifice. Don't forget to get your 8h per night please. :-)

  • @gamermanzeake

    A pretty cool goal you reached in just under a week! The game I've been speed running for a long while, is: "Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts." I've played the game since I was very young, and I've never gotten tired of it. Speed running is truly a challenge, even with games that normally wouldn't be difficult... It just so happens though, that my speedrun choice is also incredibly difficult.

Or do you have one already that i can't find? Also if you end up making one, don't do ORAS contests as they're easy, so i would say do emerald contests or platinum super contests.
