EPTSounds like you're on the right track of just trying stuff though. As soon as you find a game you want to put the time into then you'll be all set!

I think something like a #tl-net channel on the SRL server would be a cool idea for the fans of both speedrunning and ESPORTS. | ||

As far as I know I'm the only person who has attempted this category with most of the love going to the Riku story which has almost no RNG and only takes two hours. However a nice bonus to this game being on the GBA is that I can emulate and stream it without it effecting the overall time too much so I'll probably be running this while I wait on my DS to come back. If anyone is interest in watching the first 3 floors of a game with worse RNG than FF9: http://www.twitch.tv/drazerk/c/1769433 (skip to around 25 minutes in you won't miss anything) If your interested in watching a fun category of this game you should check out Augora's RE Riku run: http://www.twitch.tv/augora/b/346884568 (Probably wise to skip Hallow bastion and Traverse town. You won't miss anything) Finally thanks to new FF9 strats (Which I'm not allowed to share until Luna gets a recorded WR run with them) sub 12 PAL is now pretty easy in a SS setting I just need to not die during the YANA sequence. | ||

The one I'm leaning towards yet again has zero speedruns that I can find anywhere. Robotech: Battlecry. Why do I always pick games that nobody else plays? Well routing a game is the fun part of speed running  | ||

I was thinking about this one: http://www.amazon.com/SNES-Controller-Adapter-USB-Super-NES/dp/B002IXZ5DE/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top But does anyone know of one that works pretty well? | ||

I haven't used that specific product but I have used the N64 adapter by the same company (Mayflash) and it works great. The top review on that product seems useful, it might be worth checking out which model your controller is. | ||

For the record: Got no encounters before Sealion: 388 times Stole the Mythril Dagger on the first attempt: 69 times Killed Sealion: 7 times Got no encounters after Sealion: 1 time Total number of attempts: 2649 The segment is around 3:20 in this video http://www.twitch.tv/bzeromus/b/347901817 Also this is a cautionary tale against segmented runs of long JRPGS. | ||

Sadly I can't use my favourite strategy because of the need to break his cards to attack him. | ||

I actually managed to finish a SS run of Sora's story in Chain of Memories. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/OgpAK.png?1) http://www.twitch.tv/drazerk/b/348241744 (Up to Marluxia II) http://www.twitch.tv/drazerk/b/348305438 (Marluxia II) Honestly if it wasn't for the fact I had to put the stream down for 10 minutes I would probably never touch this game again but with the 4 deaths and the failed mini game segment I don't think I can leave it in its current state. On the bright side at least its the first ever completed run? | ||

Hopefully she will submit it to SDA despite some mistakes in the run. http://www.twitch.tv/essentiafour/b/348321993 | ||
