The Smallest Trackmania Shortcuts

[@emperorsascharoni9577]

When he was like you already know the line I was immediately like "and then Hefest got this run" and managed to say it exactly at the same time as him. Incredible how one player can get so many records.

@@LinkMaxTM yea comparing the TAS to an actual attempt is misleading, im sure the TAS of the bunnyhop is much faster than that.

​@@Obi-WanKannabis That's what I was expecting in the video - a comparison to an other TAS run. Oh well, we'll just have to see what humans can come up with.

Omg normal vs shortcut is my FAVORITE subject in speedrunning thank you so much for making a video abt this.

I messed up the approach to the jump but had almost the perfect angle, though I ended up clipping the top of the gate so I flipped and landed on my roof. Had no idea that was a skip so I never went for it again. This is so cool! Your video about the D-07 WR got me into TMNF and it's been a fantastic ride, keep up the good work!

i still can't understand why rioulo dissapeared entirely. He obviously was one of the best tm players ever and I loved to watch his streams. If only he would have come clean about what he did. Surely, his competitive career would have been over anyways, but the streaming thing would have continues to work out for him regardless

It's good that he hasn't returned. Watching his stream now would only mean enabling one of the biggest cheaters in gaming history.

[@dsdy1205]

I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have, or at least it would have been a lot less profitable

[@jannegrey]

It would be less profitable, but if he did it correctly he might have retained some audience and started building up trust again. Though it would be hellishly difficult. I guess he didn't want to suffer abuse that would surely be on his streams. I'm against abuse, but at least part of what he would have received would be if not deserved then at least justified. Because he handled it almost as badly as it was possible.
