That's the DJ being taken off stage, not me. The crowd was in the single digits. I don't have game

Ended up going to the after party.

DJ started at 9.

I got there at 9:25.

Pulled at 9:55.

There's an anime con in Southampton today across from where I'm staying so I figured I'd give it a go. There's a speedrunning panel tomorrow which I'm not going to make.

Anyway it's been 10 minutes and I've already seen everything. This is absolutely SHAMBOLIC

Crash getting a TV show is great but I'm still going to bitch about it not being anime

in true sonic riders fashion the babylon garden lockup has returned in chao park

Now I've finally beat all the base cups in Cross Worlds I'm not sure what to think of the game but I'm definitely not infatuated with the controls

thoughts on crossworlds now the full game is out

PATCH MYSTIC JUNGLE

that is all

I have picked up Cross Worlds pretty quickly, got to get my gadget plate to full and then start doing speedruns

huh would you look at that

she suika on my game until I planet

15 is possible on Heroes Story PS2.

YouTube video by Kiri Sonic Riders PS2 - rough guide to Sand Ruins

I was hoping you'd pick up Riders eventually :) and ZG too, I'm excited for that!

Ice's runs are incredible and runs at a level beyond anyone else. I've done a few videos on Riders that might be a good resource but my commentary isn't very refined or family friendly: youtu.be/2Tmjjt0K0TU

some early thoughts on cross worlds:

- mechanically similar to the most intuitive parts of riders
- controls well 90% of the time but then locks up. the final turns on water palace in particular seem to be bugged.
- item balance needs working on but tornados are very fun

I've had a Gashapon/anime/retro games hunt route lined up for when I go to London tomorrow and it's pretty hectic.

Turns out I missed a retro games store in East Ham. And it's a big one. Kiri you stupid little man

I've seen it. Fair play. Kosme routed it, grinded it down and played a very aggressive Bubbles.

Most importantly I now have something I can scale my own run against and route properly.

The speedrun.com experience

I think most of them were aware but it's such a deep cut. I'll have to see if there's more out there we're not aware of

very few finds I've made on game hunts have made me go 'what the fuck'

Today had one of those finds.

Runs. Eventually.

With a consistently working OPL I can do longer Riders runs which should be exciting :) this setup should also let me come back to Bear runs!

Didn't get into UKSG Blue this year so naturally will not be attending.

I'm keen to get to more events though because Sonic Riders All Tracks/Cups has MINIMUM 5 bid wars which is a big money spinner for any fundraiser

For UKSG Blue 2023 my migraine was so bad I was considering A&E but went to Scotland instead and still knocked the run out

GDQ Hotfix Bear: capture card dies, FAILED A LEVEL, game crash

UKSG Bear: had a migraine and went into the wrong level

UKSG Riders: lost the final race lmfao

And a softlock.

Stupid owl I'm coming for you

The #Crash Speedrunning Community is organizing a race on the 2nd of August to remember Dustiel.

He was a major Crash: Warped 105% runner so the community has decided to run that category.

Newcomers are welcome to join their estimated 3-6 hour run.

We're currently gauging for the best start time.

I'm not sure how but I think I just found a skip in Duolingo

Making a coffee in the kitchen at work and a tour comes past and points it out like I'm in a zoo exhibit. Do they want me to do a dance as well

Mandatory yearly update

im gonna buy a real extreme gear

translate this run's loads to PC and I'm top 5 while playing on the slower PS2 which naturally loses time, which is about 4-6 seconds per level but also something I need to route out

the new era of riders ps2 is here. new tricks, faster performance and a fully distinct speedgame from pc
