Seeing as there is only 1 listed run in JP, i was wondering what the community thought on the idea.

You should also note that the JP version is faster as there is a lot of unskippable dialog in the game, so it would definitely affect more than just adding one run to the board as I'm sure at the very least the top runners will switch to JP if this happens.

So, I'm just starting to learn FDS any% but for whatever reason, I can't get the glitch to cooperate. I have tried about a half dozen different roms and none of them produce anything different than what happens in this clip

I am running on an Everdrive N8, not Pro. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, or if there is a specific rom that should be used?

As the title says, I am wondering if there are any flashcart specific rules. I randomly generated a game to learn how to speedrun for the new year, and this is the game that came up. I am just wondering if there are any specific rules on flashcarts (Everdrive specifically) until I can find an original cart locally.

Just wondering if there would be any interest in a Chapter 1-4 category. It is a little bit more bite sized, and a good starting point to learning the game. Just an idea. I see some people doing C1-4 races (Mostly with Randomizer, but still) and I know I would be more inclined to learn the game faster if there was at least this as a start lol.

So, I am not the greatest at explaining this, but I will do my best. I noticed that when you push the start button for the first time, it takes you from the "Mask" screen, to the "Friday the 13" screen, then when you push it again, it goes to the screen with all the text, then the third start input goes to Character select.

Now, the important thing that I noticed, is that when you let the game sit, the mask gets stabbed, and then it goes to the "Friday the 13" screen on its own and then plays the sound.

Now for the question, is there a reason that we don't try to find a potential seed starting from that second screen, maybe saving a little bit of time? I mean, it probably wouldn't amount to a huge amount of time, but it might be a bit more consistent with a potential audio/video cue based on when the screen changes and sound plays or something.

Is it just me or do the guides not link to anything anymore? I see nothing but the author on the guide pages anymore. No videos, or nothing.
