Speedrunning

How you not run out of facts and glitches for facts and glitches? So there's a handful of sources for facts and glitches in general.

One, speedrunning.

Speedrunning is always evolving.

New strategies are always being invented.

Then there's just my general gameplay, speedrunning or otherwise.

Okay, let's just jump right in then.

flipping the coin i am doing the 30 second speed run

speed run got it

of the absolute episode and you are doing the full thing

that means i have to time you okay are you ready yeah

so you mentioned crowbar who i think like didn't really get into content creation i think i remember from our podcast it was like 2017 2018 maybe so when did you when did you start

I mean, it was just with, like, speedrunning stuff.

I never did anything before Minecraft Spearing, so it was just, like...

Or I guess...

You said that like you got the name Aquacord from Corey Way.

So like, were you just a viewer before? Like, is that one where you view it into content creator? Like, did you watch Speedrunning and become a creator? Like how was the kind of like pipeline?

yeah so i think i like kind of got into speed running like a little bit from like when curryway got record and like i think december 2020 is when i like started like following mcsr people really and yeah i was mostly like a viewer at that time like i think i ran like a little bit but i like sucked yeah i think i had some like 30 or 40 minute times i remember when i got my first like sub 30 i think it was like a few months after i started watching maybe but I would like speedrun like on and off during like 2021 I think and then like like maybe late 2021 I like started like getting more into it or like 2022 or something I started like actually speedrunning more I don't think I was like do I wasn't like uploading or like streaming though really at that time because like like I had my TikTok like that was like the thing I had first kind of like before like around the same time as I started speedrunning And I sucked at speedrunning.

So I didn't want to like post my speedrun because like my whole thing was like, oh, I'm like so good at like movement and stuff on my TikTok.

Well, that's a great thing to be sharing.

Speedrun haircut.

What? We're in a negative timeline for sure.

Laughing my ass off.

there's a speed run category called turd percentage where you have to go and grab a turd as quick as you can.

And if you go into speedrun.com, Tim is number one in the world for turd percentage.

I'm not sure if I'd want to be number one at turn grabbing.

I like saying that we have a world record holder on the pod.

2014.

Speedrun! MM2! Wait, I could low-key use my admin here.

Well, I have like- I can make myself murder.

I guess that's not admin.

Hello and welcome to another episode of Chris and Adam's 60 Minute Speedrun.

I'm Chris and as always I'm joined by my lovely reliable friend, it is Mr Adam Parry.

Hello!

That's a good name for a podcast.

So, anyway.

Yes, well, thanks for joining us for our latest episode of Speedrun, where we chat about video games for 53...

No. Oh, why did I say 30 minutes? 57.

it should have been 60 minute bullshit I was wondering that but then I thought maybe at least you're giving us 30 minutes to talk bullshit and then 30 minutes to talk about games I don't know or 30 minutes to just talk about bullshit oh no no an

I say, "What would be the fastest humanly possible?" I'll frequently just get a build and try to do that myself.

Yeah, I do that with Speedrun.

You know, you just turn on some debug cheats and you go, "If I can reasonably guess, what would be the- ... absolute blitz through this that would be, and then what would be the I'm lost- Mm ...

I don't know where I'm going, I don't, I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing.

And then you get more, they could have the obscure ones.

Speedrunning is also a very funny one.

Uh, you know what I also, I was thinking about? Strongman, right? You give like, you, you let the guys know two to six months out what the events are, right?

Yep.

So you s- we started with the theme song, which we don't normally do.

But Greg, that's because, uh, today is the night before pay-per-view, so that means it's time for a speed run.

[upbeat music] I mean, we're not particularly fast fleeted people, but so we'll, we don't know how fast this is gonna go.

We've still got, like, I think we should still tell stories, Greg.

Well, I, uh...

Listen, there, there's a couple things.

I mean, you know, we're, we're supposed to be on a speed run here, but the thing that I think I enjoyed the most in this match, uh, was Lash Legend, uh, shoving Lola Vice into the soul snatcher.

That was a, a fun way to, to, to kind of get towards the end of this match, and then Lash finishing it with Lash Extension.
