This was my first speedrun as well. All I can say is that there are many strats, but they are straight-forward. There's nothing too complicated or too game-breaky.
We can help you a lot on our discord: https://discord.gg/QbRzwrb Besides discord, you can watch the WR run and learn through there.

3 days left to the marathon! Can I get a HYPE? PogChamp
I liked WWE when i was 6-9. My first incarnation of my username was Paulista from the similarly named wrestler.
Thank fuck I made that slight tweak. Makes it slightly more official tbh
Unless explicitly stated, there's no limitation to the events you can attend and/or submit runs to.
Naegleria, a NA speedrunner attended this year's ESA. Nepumuk, a dutch speedrunner was going to run in the coming AGDQ. Even I, a speedrunner from Greece living in Glasgow attended BSG, a dutch speedrunning event.
To my knowledge, attending a marathon from a different continent or country is never frowned upon, quite contrary in fact, it's a nice discussion topic.
PS: ESA was in Växjö until 2017 and now in 2018 they're moving it to Mälmö, a much more accessible city.
Thanks for the heads up. Timezones have been fixed.

Hey guys, apologies, but I have some IRL business on the weekend of the marathon and can't run. Please remove my run from the schedule.
HYPE PogChamp
I'll hype but is this an online marathon?
PogChamp
I'd like to run a Kirby game at some point in the future, even if that means comparing to only emulator runs, or doing some math to see where i rank on DS leaderboards. So a separate category, mainly for simplicity's sake, for emulator's only would be gucci.
Hai can you change my name to Paulister? It's not my official nickname because it's almost always taken so I wanna have that in at least one site <3 k thx byyeeee <3
Aloha!
I'd like to become a mod or supermod for the game Mojo! for PS2 and XBOX (https://www.speedrun.com/Mojo)
Current super mod has gone AWOL for seven months and I've made what seems to be the only post on the whole page by asking (sort of) to be mod.
Nais! If y'all need help translating into Greek (for the one person that will use it and understand it) I'm all yours! :D
Holy cow. I remember coming across this at some point in my playthrough way back when i was 12. It was buried deeply in my head until this brought it back up!
