You mean nerves. Part of being a good player is learning to control your nerves. Try not to look at the timer and go "omgomgomg", because you'll screw up. Play it cool, and do a solid finish to an already-good run.

Of course, that's not as easy as it sounds. Some runs are so awesome that you can't help but shake like an 80 year old having an epileptic seizure.

This happens to me lots on Infiltration A.

I had a 1:14 where I totally blew it at the elevator (should have been 1:13) because of nerves, staring at the timer, etc.

So yeah, the only time I even glance at the timer now are for TTs and right at the end before it cuts into cinema.

(I'm a Goldeneye only guy, excuse me).

The best example of this in my opinion is Aztec. You're on a for sure PR / WR run when the 30 second countdown comes up. You are in the vents fighting for your LIFE, moving around franctically to keep from dying. If possible, you HAVE to watch  Wouter Jansen's Aztec 00A 1:56. This is probably the best Aztec 00A run as a whole and Wouter takes an unbelievable end to the 30 second countdown. Failing to find safety, he's ALL over the vents and nearly dies 3 times...There is no way I could have handled myself on that run, props to Wouter for not dying.

I agree on that Jim, the strat he used was more risky than the one we use now with guards in the vents all over the place, both when going in the last room and the ending.

I'm still a slave to nerves sometimes, but I just try to remember to do the run "by the book" and not be stupid. You're your own worst enemy sometimes so just do what you know will work.

Not only should you try not to screw up because of nerves but you should try taking advantage of them by making you more alert and stuff.

yea man.  There are a bunch of great GE examples I can think of:

Depot 00 - when you hit the TS and the mfs completed and the ammo is blowing up its like "OMG @#%$!!!"

Train - A good run usually leads to hardcore lock suckage from all the nerves.  You're like "cmon I need these great locks" and it rarely happens.

Surface 2 SA - Definately one of the easiest GE records, yet only 5 people have it.  Why?  Get a nade and go "OH @#%$ MAN LETS NOT SCREW THIS UP."  You will end up screwing it up just so you know.

Aztec - The ultimate example.  30 second countdown shows who are men, and who need to wipe the @#%$ out of their pants afterwards.  I'm the latter, but guys who keep control when there is no room for error (wouter 156, Illu 142 SA TODAY HOLY @#%$) are the REAL men.



Yea, no clue why I posted this in PD, but PD needs some livelyhood, and I was told to spam less, and this isn't really spam at all! :)
