A couple of things happened during this run.
- I had a black screen of death temporarily starting around 2:53:XX, and once it came to, I accidentally paused the timer for about 4 seconds, so I added that to the end. The splits went black, but once it came back, it was at the right time (went black for 1:59, was at a time 1:59 after the splits disappeared, so it wasn't tampered with)
- Stream went down around the 6 hour mark and I had to start recording. Lost about 9 seconds of footage, but during that time, the Cogs were exploding and I started dancing so nothing was missed.
By this forum, I was able to do this run live and solo (nobody directly helped me): https://www.speedrun.com/ttr/thread/ja78h
Anyways, this was worth maxing my toon in Sellbot and all the preparation. I am never doing a run like this again due to how aggravating it is to set up, but against all odds, I'm glad I got it finished. I did NOT expect a sub 7 hour run though.
EDIT: Not sure why 2nd part got deleted on twitch, but I have second part on YouTube.
Mod Note: The timer disappeared for 1:58.250 at 2:53:49-2:55:47 in Part 1, accurately lining up from the timer's final frame before disappearing (2:53:15.73, first frame without timer would've been .73 also) and the first frame before reappearing (2:55:13.95). The timer was paused for 3.167 seconds at 2:56:15-2:56:18 in Part 1, and is accounted for in the final retime of 6:46:23.
