So people that take 10 hours to get 26 deserve it more than someone that got it first try?

Its not exactly like that, every situation is unique, but for the most part yes.

I would say that 'deserving' a WR or a PR would only apply to a time which you have played for an incredibly long time without getting the necessary conditions to complete the run. In other words, if there is a big luck factor out of your control. That wouldn't apply to a record like 26. On top of that, you would have to consistently show you have the skill to achieve that record, and when the needed conditions are finally met, you can't @#%$ up the run. Chokers don't deserve anything;)

That boost at the door before the exit was pretty divine.  Nice job.

But really wouters 17 doesnt even look that insane to me...only 6 boosts too. I think this pal difference stuff on bunker is all in your mind. But you got it first so thats the big thing.

But really, 17 isn't bad at all. I just had a really good run with extreme luck on the warp. I warped after the key analyzer switched, so i got lucky to be at the door when it switched. I miss that warp 99% of the time. Could have easily taken me 20 more hours.

the only thing that sucked about my run is the key pickup. and perhaps usage of cruise and not 1.2.
7 boosts is more often worse than not. shows what you know.
I will try it on ntsc, and I bet it won't take me 150 (!) hours then..
I'm guessing ntsc you're more likely to get good boosts, wasn't the theory that ntsc has more accurate guards? why would it take me so long to get 17, and every other run that was almost as fast was 18 (watch them all, there's sure as hell some better than some of the 17s..)?
also, there could be differences with the doors, it being easier to actually analyze the key in time... I remember mine was insanely lucky and that was the only time I had such an ending that it just went smoothly from analyzing to switch and warp. perhaps ntsc analyzes faster. you know NOTHING about the PAL record, you may only have seen the vid. Why don't you get PAL and prove me wrong? All us PAL players have to get NTSC, so why not vice versa? as if the NTSC advantage isn't unfair enough..

wouters 17 is the most impressive so far in my eyes...no joke. The fact that he did it PAL 1.1 cc is just unbelievable...if it wasnt for wouter I still would think 17 is near impossible on PAL:rolleyes  and Ive seen his 18's and for sure they look as good as many 17, maybe some of them would be 17 if done on ntsc? I think bunker 1 17 PAL is underrated by many:\

I think it's a little bit of both. PAL have some little disavantage on Bunker (which makes a lot of difference on the 17) and Wouter was also using 1.1, when 1.2 looks better for it. But also, it's just the way records get tied. You think it's totally insane when someone gets it, then everyone else starts to tieing.

Yeah eddy, maybe, but that boost behind the table probably hurt you a little. but yeah if you got that warp there isnt a doubt in my mind youd get 17. however, your boosts up the stairs were at a good angle and i think you actually got to the door so early that the key didnt have time to analyze.

And actually wouter, funny you mention because i usually have the key analyze slower than @#%$. I have 2 failed 24's on sa with no door warp because the key didnt analyze, and thats with me mashing Z and only like 2 boosts or 3 so yeah.

If you guys knew ANYTHING at all, 1.1 has a horrible disadvantage compared to 1.2.  I'm sure if Wouter tried 1.2 PAL and 1.1 NTSC the results would be similar anyways.

I can't tell since obv I dont have PAL but yeah 1.1 really sucks ass on B1 and I know how insane Wouter's run is given he did it 1.1.  I can't judge how crazy PAL is, and neither can anyone who has NEVER done b1 17 with PAL (no one other than Wouter can judge)

just shut up everyone you suck

but Clemens you're awesome, gj man =)

finally a post I can agree with there.

Quote:

shows how much you know again. if you tap Z, it will slow it down immensely. so of course you'd get slow analyzes. you must just press Z, wait a bit (try not to press again before it's actually done), then another Z to throw. tapping is actually very evil here..

and yea, I think 1.2 may be a factor in me having had a very hard time with it, (am I the only one that got it with 1.1 aswell, even if using CC?) but I also think NTSC has a slight advantage, and when a level is so small, the smallest things help immensely..

1.2 can no doubt get the key by boris faster since you can make sharper turns. Also, you can switch to look down faster which may save a few thousandths or something. Everyone besides you used 1.2 , i am almost sure. Whites is the only 1.1 player, but it looks like he switches from taking the pic to lookdown real fast, so i am guessing he used 1.2
