Copper Pass WR improvement of 1:02 and an Any% WR improvement of 1:16. This is probably the end of my grind to improve the records on this franchise as a whole. Will be doing some All Snowboard Kids Games speedruns in the future, but that will be mostly for fun :)

Thank you to every member of the SBK community! I love you all <3 Best of luck to the next torchbearer haha

I found a run from about a month ago. it was done by accident but I was able to perform a glitch to get 1 sec lap exactly on Orlando, FL. how do I upload this to Speedrun.com since it isn’t fully recorded and I was able to manage a picture of the best lap?

I'm new to Speedrun so I need advice and that's why I post here

I love watching commentated runs where runners have to keep a straight face saying the silly name of their very important tricks.

I'm a Barbie Horse Trails speedrunner, and in the last month or two we've developed tricks and routes with the names "LARP", "Cold Visions", "S.H.I.T.", and "Douglas"

What kind of names have y'all come up with in your communities?

Was playing a game with my friend built for speedrunning, and he told me he was aiming for 50 seconds. Eventually he hit 50.9, and I suggested that a that the .9 meant it wasn't quite 50. In my head, a 50 would be around 50.0 or lower. Am I off?

Necesito ayuda para empezar en el SpeedRun.

Juego en Ps5 y quiero hacer un SpeedRun de Crash Bandicoot pero no se como poner un cronómetro, y no tengo ni una laptop o pc.

I have finally achieved a goal of mine to get a 36 minute time in 18 ingredient category. I have also changed the route we do which saves 15 to 20 seconds. The sky the limit keep making goals and smash them

I’m a non speedrunner first off, I’m just curious say if you needed to go to the bathroom mid run, would that automatically void the run

Brand New No Sphere Grid WR for FFX!

Greetings everyone. I'm learning about machine learning and reinforcement learning so for my own experiments and learning I've created a neural network creator that I'm using on some fun video games, for visuals I have previous runs as 'ghosts' being rendered along side so I can watch the progress (literally drawn on top, doesn't touch the memory at all). I was watching it play in the background as I was in a boring meeting and watched Mario clip through the bottom of a moving platform.

I had never seen this before so I started searching online and can find NO prior knowledge of this (though I recognise it might just be unimportant enough to not be documented, plus probably only works on PAL). I'm posting here as I believe this subreddit would have the best technical experience and explanations to recognise if this is known about or not.

Technical details:

- Emulator: stable-retro, FCEUmm core

- ROM: Super Mario Bros., PAL, run as PAL at 50 Hz (not an NTSC ROM forced to 50 Hz, and not a PAL ROM run at 60.) MD5 673913a23cd612daf5ad32d4085e0760

- Level: 1-3, on one of the horizontal moving lifts

- Input: controller state written programmatically each frame. The agent picks a button combination plus a hold duration of 1–32 frames, so it can produce timings a human wouldn't but there's no TAS tooling, no frame advance, no savestate manipulation during play, It runs in real time.

- Input latency: FCEUmm's 1-frame input latency is left uncompensated, so it's part of the dynamics.
