[@bigbrownhouse6999]

I experienced this years ago as a musician. Whenever I would practice a really challenging part on my instrument, I used to start over every time I made a mistake. This would allow me to run through it more, but it made my brain “pause” every time I made a mistake. Inevitably, when performing live, my brain would sometimes totally shut down if I made any mistake, which was bad! I decided that from then on, I would always finish the part I was practicing, even if I totally fumbled it; because you have to teach yourself to keep going.

[@marcosperezomg]

Muscle memory can also get you stuck in a rut if you're used to using a slower or less efficient strat that gets beaten out by a newer strat. I'm not a speedrunner but I am a schmup player and sometimes I catch myself getting into position for an inferior scoring strat that I used to use when I've found and practiced a better strat that I should be using. When new strats are discovered, sometimes you're going to have to do some mental rewiring to kick the old strat out of your mind

[@Valientlink]

It depends on the game, but strong muscle memory alone doesn't make a great speedrunner.

Another great video as always, Karl! One thing I noticed right away was that the TAS + the user's successful attempt happened when the kart was facing a diagonal (diagonal left in this case), compared to all the fails where they were "head on." I am wondering if there is some interesting clipping where part of the kart renders on the other side, thus allowing the rest to render on the other side during the next frame. I am curious if being on the diagonal will help in this instance, and if so, I wonder if using the diagonal will help in other instances that might allow the kart to render partially on the other side to accomplish something, i.e., partial render into a section similar to one of the first clips you showed where the user was speeding into the mountain wall and gaining laps. Speedrunning is such an amazing community when we find all these awesome bugs and glitches and such! All the best to you and your family

[@angmering5899]

Noob question; how on earth are the odds for these skips actually calculated? How did the speedrunning community even begin to figure out that you can only achieve the fence skip approximately 1 in 90,000 times?

[@cuttertsi3715]

Probably some amount of lining up frames perfectly

[@tomstonemale]

I can only imagine the amount of time it took the TAS to be completed with that skip. It looks easy, but tool assisted speedruns can take weeks, if not months, to create.

[@Alexander-ze3ts]

It's 1 in 90,000 within the normal parameters of play by a top level player. I guess a lot of that is subjective and the number is more conceptual than accurate. First you'd figure out the margin of error, what is the tollerence for the skip. Which isn't hard with tools where you can align your self perfectly, put your self in any position and at any angle. Then you can figure out what the normal parameters of play by a top level player are to come within or close to this tollerance. Map it to a graph and select an average that kind of just 'feels right'. Although I'm sure people who're much better at maths and statistics, who actually know what they're talking about, will know the techniques to properly map this data. A round number like 90,000 isn't going to be at all accurate. And better players (or players who're accurate more often) will have better odds.

[@elsonlam]

I did some quick search. Not much info but I think I found the answer. In short, when something moves in a video game, it actually "teleports" at the rate of X pixels per frame. In order to make this trick work, the kart has to be above a certain speed, and hits the fence at a specific pixel. At that pixel, the game thinks the kart hit the fence from the other side, therefore the game pushes the kart to that side. So the 1/90,000 is not completely correct because that is the odds if you randomly aim at the fence. After 20ish tries, the player should have decent aim to avoid the wrong parts of the fence and reduce the odds. Experienced gamers should be able to avoid more parts of the fence so their odds should be better.

you aren't a mistake, but i know the feeling.

Thanks for still covering speedrun stuff. I haven't watched AGDQ for years now and I really miss the actual speed running content. Your channel is the only speedrun content I watch now.

Pokémon Shiny Hunters: First time?

[@filipisotter5114]

1 in 8000 and 1 in 90 000 are on two different levels lol. Cant even compare resetting on a shiny and this.

[@kit2799]

@@filipisotter5114 thats not what he means, people accidentally reset when hunting for shinies a lot

[@filipisotter5114]

@@kit2799 I'll repeat this again "resetting over a shiny is nothing compared to this." People have never reset over a shiny that has a 1 in 90 000 chance to appear, and so the two experiences can barely be compared imo.

[@deeznoots6241]

Ironically pokemon speedrunners hate finding shiny pokemon since it adds some frames

[@goanimals123]

@@filipisotter5114 They weren't comparing the rarity of the event. Just the action of muscle memory due to repeated fails causing a mistake. You are being obtuse and repeating yourself doesn't make what your saying sound better or more correct.

[@dddrones]

Its like when you're soft resetting for a shiny and you've done the same thing over and over for so long it's become a reflex. I've seen people soft reset out of that shiny encounter on accident. Whenever it's me I always freeze, terrified that my fingers will soft reset the game before I get the chance to tell them not to. Doing something again and again and closing out when it doesn't work is a double edged knife- you can do many attempts quickly, but the chance you squander the 1 time it works as intended is great.

[@PierceArner]

I'd never thought about needing to intentionally train your muscle memory against speed resetting when repeating a level hundreds of times. That's super tough. Here's to hoping that all those runners grinding like this and slipping up can make lightning strike twice.

2 years from now. Karl makes a video on someone successfully doing it. 2 years and 2 weeks from now. Karl makes a video about another busted cheater.

[@semisemicoloncolon]

We’ll all probably be rewatching this a few years from now when abney pulls off three of these in one run and laughing

[@Enclave.]

I've done similar stuff to this, it hurts every time. Muscle memory can be a real bastard somtimes.

[@weepinangel4485]

Yay the legend is back

[@darkcloud2]

Yeah, he is.

[@Valientlink]

It's kind of like how in Ocarina of Time people will sometimes instantly drop a HESS after getting it because they rolled on the very first frame and assumed it was too early. I've done this one and seen other runners do it hundreds of times through the years.

[@daviddeltoro1808]

Hope you consider making a "History Of Doom speedruns" if Summoning Salt never gets around to it

[@markoadam6619]

I wait for the 5 hardest GE records video. Karl mentioned a year ago he may make it :D

[@anatoos]

performing that trick on all 3 laps would take Dream levels of luck.

[@motownmufasa5858]

Wow, that's crazy! I calculated some stats and here's what I found for expectations (based on 30 second runs & 1/90,000 chance) 1st Lap: 50% chance success within 519 hrs (22 days) 1st Lap: 95% chance success within 2,250 hrs (93 days) 1st & 2nd Lap: 50% chance success within 5,340 years 1st & 2nd Lap: 95% chance success within 23,000 years 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Lap: 50% chance success within 495,000,000 years 1st, 2nd, & 3rd Lap: 95% chance success within 2,140,000,000 years

[@fancyf33t295]

I remember my first experience playing an online race for Mario Kart on the DS when it first came out. I was the best. Around. No one was ever gonna whatever the rest of that dumb song says. Those guys raced so consistently and took the same line time and time again that it was jarring. These guys are on a different level of dedication

[@spookydoggo_]

Poor guy almost made it to a SummoningSalt video, only to choke last minute and get a video slot right next to Billy Mitchell. Tough luck.

[@thenormalordinarycultist6105]

This man legit spent half the video. 6 minutes and 30 seconds doing an intro, getting a sponsor over, and going off topic. My word, I’m not surprised.

[@GMPranav]

Now imagine doing it without stopping the kart lol

[@Swithel]

I usually dont watch these kind of speedrunning videos, but ever since ive come across your videos, I cant click off, you explain and talk about it so well. Good Job making these awesome videos and I hope you will be more and more recognized on KZbin. Also, great voice :D

I saw the first few second and as a compulsive resetter myself I immediately knew what happened even if I did not know the specifics...That poor poor man...
