hey JB, take a picture of the rankings showing BBGMWJ before it updates using print screen and save it to a bmp picture and you can still remember it that way :)

Goose you officially just put an end to my personal greatest / favorite era in GE history. That whole BBGMWJ record there was what kept me in touch with my past, you just destroyed that and now GE is completely AAIPMKRIRW, great job.

55 is incredible, considering 56 was first achieved not even that long ago. Facility is being pwned to hell, great job Ace :)

You know Goose, hate to burst your bubble, but that trick doesn't do jack squat in all reality. Everyone (who's good anyway) shoots as soon as possible already anyway, I think your trick just makes stuff harder. Remembering that would be a bitch on say...00A when you're already nervous as hell.

for one, with the normal strat, you can't start shooting ASAP cause you gotta detonate the mine which takes time you n00b.

Also, the trick is impossible on SA/00A cause the drone hits you as you're killing xenia.  Its for agent only n00b.

Even if your behind a tree? aka a werid angle.
This saves how much time?

I know a time saver for 00, involves getting only 1 ammo.:b ;)

It doesn't save time, it just adds consistency.  And I guess if you were behind a tree on SA/00A you would be ok with it, but that's rare and inconsistent.  No point using a consistency trick when its just gonna make things inconsistent eh? :b

yeah, as I demonstrate, no need for the trick since I didn't have to stop running at all to kill her. so if you use it you must be a noob; so according to goose, you would apply, Jim.

What I mean is that us good people who are accurate can detonate the mine and get the gun out before you even see the bitch, so it would save zero time, you see what I mean you smartass n00b? Unless you mean shooting through trees, which makes you look like even more of a n00b since no one could really do that.

eh?  Maybe its a cart issue cause it's impossible on my cart to get the gun out before you see xenia unless you threw the mine from the start of the bridge.

I think the general elite throws the mine from the bridge...Watch my vids Goose, maybe you just throw the mine far later than you really should.

Ok I have a question about WR's and this is mainly for Ryan White, Bryan Bosshardt and Wouter Jansen to hear about. How many hours do you play on average per day, are WR's really that hard to get or is it all about pushing your self at a constant rate? The reason I ask this is because the past few months Ive had several days where I'll start up my n64 and then get lazy on GE and then turn it off about 10-15 minutes later switching to something else like Halo or TS2. Maybe I feel maxed out on GE as far as agent difficulty. Help would be appreciated.

Im not anyone of them:b , but yes you must push yourself to improve, and top your pr(s), if you expect to get better. Also if you push yourself when your hateing the game, then you should just give it a break, or bad things happen.;)

I've played at least 1hour/day but usually closer to 4 hours/day for the past 15 months.  Then factor in sometimes it takes me a few days to WR or even PR, and that's like playing 12 hours of the same level.  You need both good skill, and a great understanding of the level you're trying to WR on.

Basically, its either you got it, or you don't.  If you got it, then you gotta play a lot and you'll get some WRs.  If you don't got it, then you'll never get anything real nice.  There are a few easy WRs, but for someone at your level, you'd probably be spending at least 10 hours (which really isn't a lot) to get them.

It's a myth when people say 1 hour a day is enough to get WRs, it really isn't. You need to set aside a period of time when you can concentrate on getting a lot of runs in, for me it was always a 4 hour session. I would almost always PR between then. Motivation helps too, I have the motivation to re-pass Goose on the rankings, but just not the time or skill anymore, haha. So yeah.

I just came home and saw this like 2 hours ago.  I've been sitting in this chair crying now that whole time.  I just don't understand.  I don't even want to play it if anything, rather than get more motivation.  I just feel like nothing, like killing someone or something.  I just never want to play GE ever again.

An extensive GE proof call will be made this weekend.

Just a bit of a warning for those of you who might not have stuff on tape, in case you want to start trying to get stuff on tape so it won't be removed.

If anybody would like to lend a hand as a proof moderator, please send me an IM or email.  I would like having a nice list of people who can make vids (good quality and not take ages) before the call is made so we can have people sending tapes out right away.

Sad to hear :(

Anyway what's the point of playing if you can't record anywhere. If my VCR would be broken or something I wouldn't touch my N64 before it gets fixed that's just the way it's and should always be! Non the less good job on that 1:12 ;)

It's fine as long he don't put it on his page. The situation is same with Rayan (Ace), he has not updated his page with the Facility WR's probably because he has some problems getting it captured. Last time I talked to him on AIM he had indeed problems with his capture card, this was long ago though. But I have not seen any videos from him in a while perhaps due to this :\

Good luck to those who don't have tapes, you know who you are. :hat  

Btw, I'm willing to collect tapes for anyone, just don't count on having sound in it. But this won't be too much different than goose's dig cam anyway.

Wow, World Records come so quickly, I wish to congrulate all those who got WR recently, since I hadn't the time do it at the right time. These people are: Jimmy, Ace (facility 55 :eek  ), Boss (even if it was a whoard, very nice tie!!), Goose (tu survoles tous les niveaux mon oie ;)  ), GErulz (if one day I get an "easy" WR like Runway SA, I'd stil like to be congratulated :p  ), Simon (mieux plutarque que jamais ;)  ), Leonardo Santos, Adam and Trent (too bad for the tape thing).

Great job everyone!
