4:54.448 SMB1 Any% WORLD RECORD! Perfect run into turnaround room for my strats, but turnaround was a bit too slow for 4:54.3xx. We are now 11 frames / 0.18 seconds off the TAS! This is only the beginning, more to come soon!!!💪

MID 4:54 IS DONE! 4:54.631 SMB1 ANY% WORLD RECORD! First ever run literally tied with the TAS going into 8-4, and I clutched it out. This is now a new era where the only timesave left is 8-4 frames! This wouldn't have been possible without your support, THANK YOU to everyone! <3

18:49.972 WARPLESS, NEW WORLD RECORD BY 5 SECONDS! This is the biggest jump this category has seen since January 2013, when the world record was in the 19:2x range. This is also arguably my most impressive world record EVER, maybe even harder than Any%! ft. 6 FPGs, 2 FFPGs, & BBG

Yesterday, I had an Any% WR pace run that would've been 4:54.532 die to a pixel short on turnaround. I was confused by how this happened considering everything felt perfect, and upon TAS recreating the run, I found that I got a subspeed value that had a ~1/32 chance of happening.

4:54.515 Tied WR and 4:54.482 UNTIED WR IN SMB1 ANY% IN THE SAME DAY!!! This was only Day 1 back doing attempts, and the Tied WR was 2nd attempt back. I'm not done yet though, more to come very soon... :)

I cannot believe my eyes... @YouTube changed their logo as a representation of my 4:54.798 SMB1 Any% WR as a celebration of Video Games Day! I am so honored, I never thought I'd get this far! We made it! ❤

The past few days, I achieved some incredible feats: I not only became the first person to get an 8-4 IL TAS tie more than once, but I also got a THIRD 8-4 IL TAS tie on the OG ROM! I've never been able to say this without joking, but a 4:54.265 Any% may just happen some day.

This caused Mario to stop slightly faster, which killed the run. If I had literally any other value of subspeed, this would have been an easy WR. The session before this had a run to 8-4 first room as well, so I have absolutely no doubt this is happening very soon!
