I'm super hype Cosmo's back to TWW. Were those splits the previous WR? Or his previous PB?

Sub 4:30 looks possible in an amazing run!

Demon9 just got the Helmroc skip and is on track to beat Cosmo's record! Still over half of the game to go though, but it's looking good!

Previous WR and PB (they were the same!)

If he keeps up he'll be posting a time around Cosmo's. Pretty exciting stuff, really disappointed I have to sleep now though I'm going to miss it! haha. Hopefully this means we'll see another intense WW record battle between the two.

Oh I thought Demon still had the record! Oops! Shows how long it's been since I kept up with the battle (around when Cosmo took a break as well, I suppose...)

Exciting stuff! It's rough AND exciting to see so many red splits and still with a WR run!

Got my first decent run of Nimbus 100% no scrapyard. No one else is running this but it's a lot of fun. I still have to go through and see where I made mistakes in this run since the entire last 3 worlds of it felt really good while I was playing.

Well other people play Nimbus (it's one of SRL's season 1 games even!) but everyone just does any% (which I also have the record in, see a few pages ago). 100% is lots of fun though and I'd love to see more people pick it up.

Should of seen one of Caracarnvi's FFVIII runs he was something like two and a half minutes down going into the final split and end up almost two minutes ahead of his PB. Splits are kinda like guides to how the run is going. Most runners know their runs and rough spots and where things went badly. Take Plexa's last DD run his first splits were behind even though he was doing faster strats in parts and suddenly the next split he's 15 minutes ahead.

Me and Ghost have actually stopped using splits for CoM because of how much it swings up and down and how meaningless they are (Also GL tracking map cards / enemy cards / spells / levels within the splits). However I will always use them for 358/2 since it has a very clear mission start - end screen that never changes.

That is more because I was hitting my splits late than anything else otherwise your point stands.
