      @DejaVoodooDoll The game doesn't considered it as "half a press", it counts it as two separate A-presses when it was actually only one, continuously held depression. You halved the _amount_ of A-presses needed, but you can't literally half a depression. You either depress it or not. "Half A-press" is a confusing term.

    While many love Summoning Salt for his obviously incredibly-researched and properly laid out speed running material, I can't even express how much of an inspiration he has been as a fellow content creator. He does such a well job at pacing his narration, keeping you hooked with just enough adjectives and catchiness without being overly pretentious. I've learned a lot along my way on the Pad Chennington channel, and watching SS videos has been sort of this teaching experience for me, let alone the wonderfully crafted and interesting topics he breaks down.

    "...and that's why it stood, and stood, and stood. For one month."
    Many many speedrunners have fallen in to the trap of proclaiming, and maybe even believing, the record they set cannot be beat. Unfortunately some have taken it pretty hard when the constant of speedrunning occurs: all times can be beaten. Maybe not beaten in the way you'd think, however, maybe it turns out something believed to be impossible is possible.

      Most entertaining run/runner I've ever seen is Heyzeusherestoast who does Bloodborne speedruns. Fascinating game to see run (play it first if you're bothered by spoilers), and probably THE most fascinating runner I've ever seen.
      Another great game to see run is Sonic Adventure 2. There's a great run by Talon floating out there.
      Some games are clearly superior speed run potential and become infinitely more entertaining than almost every other game.

      fox utfox "I hear all about these speedruns nowadays, but wait until you try a slow run, I even made it up myself, it's the same basic principle, but instead of going as quickly as possible, you have to go as slowly as possible, and if you maybe think about cheating, Mario spontaneously combusts" *explosion*

      When I showed my sister and brother in law a video of darbian's WR at the time, they thought he was cheating or hacking. I then did it in front of them (I was practicing at the time just to see if I could do it) and they still thought it was hacking.
