10:00 Here I am, in 2021, watching a random video on KZbin when suddenly a post I made on GameFAQs 17 years ago shows up on the screen. I gotta say, I really did not expect that. I remember doing a 16 star "run" back then, but I actually didn't remember posting about it on GameFAQs, which made it even more surprising.

"There is no video of this run." Is the speed running version of "My girlfriend goes to another school you wouldn't know her."

[@bigmike8586]

There wasn't much glory or fame to speedrunning back then, there was just the respect and admiration of a tightly knit, trusting group of friends, so there was really no reason to lie or cheat for good runs.

[@sephikong8323]

What I see when I see old speedrunners posting their time without any proof is just how much the people in this community trusted each other back then (and also the fact that video recording wasn't very widespread in the early 2000's which also helps create this trusting environment since you ....... kinda have no choice most of the time)

[@bakaboxfox612]

The guys who discovered BLJ actually answered this. The younger brother was just a little kid at the time, and was messing around with Mario because he found Mario's noises funny, by pure chance he did a BLJ and found Mario's noises hilarious. The older brother then did it on the endless staircase to try and make his younger brother laugh, and completely by accident he skipped the staircase. They sent a letter to Club Nintendo in 1997, which took 3 years to publish the trick.

Trying to remember why it's 16 stars, is that how many were needed for the Bowser fight or one of the star doors?

[@seangiglio]

16 stars is the minimum required to enter Bowser In The Fire Sea. Since it’s impossible to go upstairs and into the basement without the proper keys, all 3 bowser fights are mandatory. The tricks used in 0 star runs are extremely precise and difficult to perform, so most people prefer 16 star runs since they’re much easier and longer runs

[@5MadMovieMakers]

@@seangiglio okay, thanks!

[@cay7809]

15 to spawn mips and clip 16 becos u have to get the one in ddd

[@BrahimHadriche]

So, BLJ speeds are possible because while the speed is building up negatively, the clamp was only checked on the positive bound. It's simply something the programmers didn't think about. If they did, It would get down changing literally one line of code, which is checking that the abs(speed) < maxSpeed, instead of speed < maxSpeed. It could have been literally 5 characters in the game's code, to change the history of sm64 speed running, and make all this impossible. Talk about the butterfly effect.

I dont like TAS personally, so i didnt mind.

[@TheZenytram]

he mentioned in the video that the 1 and 0 star was develop to be a TAS only and after ppl get to do it in RTA. you can't descredit TAS of the history pf speedrun.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how much time an effort goes into these videos (research, finding videos, editing, etc). Really makes me smile how genuine these are. Great job Summoning Salt.

[@zeitok8]

well this is pointless at this year, but i am from colombia and remember try and make te trick of the backwarrd long jump "backward yahooo" as we call it, when that number of club nintendo come out, actually i recorded almost everything i thought it was weird on vhs, tricks and endings by these years, i beat bowser with 50 stars that christmas of 1999, but i am sure a lot of people in latinoamerica make that with the magazine, when i saw the trick of the backward jump on the lobby i remember tried a lot for 2 days with no succes, this one need too much practice compared to the others. Sorry my caca english.

I always love the more serious and cinematic parts of these videos showcasing the most insane things. That long bout of silence with just the music in the background playing on top of the endgame cutscene when the TAS beats the game with 1 star... it's ethereal.

Recently stumbled on your videos and I absolutely love them as an outsider to the speedrunning community. One thing I will nitpick is you say that the developers' time wasn't wasted because of all the different categories, but it would have been nice to acknowledge other styles of playing than speedrunning or at least a chuckle to indicate a tongue-in-cheek nature of the note.
