Forza 4 - Bathtubburgring Final Elipsis 2023-01-23 | There's nothing like a nice family drive in your Country Squire. What family of four doesn't love a peaceful ride in a 900 HP bathtub that wheel spins in 3rd gear at 120 mph?Remember, a can of soda at 180mph can cause a decapitation, so buckle up kids!

AGDQ 2022 Donation - A Story About Cancer Final Elipsis 2022-01-16 | I decided to go public about my cancer diagnosis in an AGDQ donation. This community means so much to me, and it just seemed fitting.Donation Text:-----I started attending AGDQ in 2015 as a fun way to connect with other speedrunners. I always appreciated that it was a charity event, but back then I didn't think about the work we were doing as much as the fun we were having.In 2019 I lost my dad to lung cancer. It was *during* AGDQ 2019 and I was still in the event hotel when I got the news. That year, the work we were doing became extremely personal. And I was so grateful to have a place to be where I felt like speedrunners like me made a positive difference in peoples lives.I had thought that that was the end of my personal story about cancer. It wasn't. Three months ago I got my own diagnosis. One surgery later they say I'm cancer free again, and here we are.Happy AGDQ 2022. The work we do for charity every year has never meant more to me. And when we can finally do AGDQ again in person, I'm still going to be here... hopefully even with a run or two.Much love and thanks to everyone who supported me through my father's cancer, and my own.-----Echoing my AGDQ 2019 donation, many many thanks to the Prevent Cancer Foundation for all the work they do in the world as well as the staff of GDQ for turning speedrunning into such a positive outlet.Thank you to iggyzig for the warm thoughts and for reading the message. And for twitch chat for absolutely crushing it with hearts (and BibleThumps).Of all the things, I never thought Twitch chat would make me cry.
Marble Madness (NES) - 2:41.077 Final Elipsis 2022-01-13 | Practice Race - Silver Framerule, best I usually getBeginner Race - Bronze Framerule, sad to have lost 0.5s vs. GLOD hereIntermediate Race - Silver Framerule, pretty cleanAerial Race - Silver Framerule, early hammers clean, pause to avoid wandsSilly Race - nice climb and clean 1-bounce silly skip, really happy about this!Ultimate Race - Fast framerule (2 framerule / 0.5s time save) and then a frame perfect LeKukie 0-cycle! Only thing that wasn't optimal was taking the final corner a little bit slow, but it wasn't gonna be 2:40 either way so I'm glad I brought it home safely.
Marble Madness (NES) - 2:41.544 Final Elipsis 2022-01-10 | Practice Race - Silver frame rule Beginner Race - Silver frame rule, I often glod this but not hereIntermediate Race - Silver frame rule, I'll take it. Clean here.Aerial Race - Silver frame rule, early hammers. Occasionally I'm glod here. Pause to avoid wands.Silly Race - One bounce but jerky birds slowed us down. Gets 2 framerules ahead of PB.Ultimate Race - Slow framerule ultimate loses 2 framerules, all the time comes back to the LeKukie 0-cycle and this one was super clean.Not the run. But a good run on the way to the 2:40.
Innocent Blue Marble Held Down and Pegged in Savage Doubleteam Final Elipsis 2022-01-05 | Title says it all. Don't watch unless you're into the hardcore stuff.
T-Minus 32.684s (and 32.817s) Final Elipsis 2021-12-02 | I retimed elmusfire's run to 32.700 starting with the first frame on level 1 is visible and stopping on the first frame of the Thanks screen because we've gotta have some civility about this.Also I put my 2 minute PB up cause it's pretty good and I'm apparently a shitty state machine.
T-Minus Speedrun 35.60s Final Elipsis 2021-11-30 | I dunno, u/elmusfire posted a speedrun of this in 37.29s so I went after it.Link is michaelaranda.itch.io/tminus before I lose it again.
Marble Madness (NES) - 2:42.195 (Hammer Manipulation Debut!) Final Elipsis 2021-11-30 | This run is the FIRST completed run with Hammer manipulation.Instead of chasing after "Early Hammers" (aka: 4, 5), the stupid pausing seems to put hammers on a "free" cycle (1,2). This turns out to be hard to reproduce, and we are still studying it. I just happened to PB very hard the first time I was testing it.Other highlights include perfect 1-bounce Silly Skip, "fast" frame rule Ultimate race, and only 1-frame off of the frame-perfect LeKukie skip. It's a good run and 2:41 or better is coming real real soon!
Marble Madness (NES) - 2:43.547 Final Elipsis 2021-11-24 | We should take the time loss from Ultimate Race.And push it into Silly Race.As my Marble Bro. says, "Never PB by too much."Must have just barely missed fast Ultimate cycle.If I don't mind saying so I think I did a gorgeous job threading the needle with the birds.Swag death. I learned it from you, Yels.
Marble Madness - The (First Ever?!) 6000 Point Jump, and Reaction Final Elipsis 2021-11-24 | This feels like such a big deal even though it doesn't help the speedrun at all. The background here is that I have had a vague memory of getting 6000 points offstream for the last few years. I've never been able to reproduce it, even with TAS tools, and I've been starting to feel like I am Todd Rodgers about the whole thing. All that changed when I was doofing around on a dead run and for real, on video, landed the 6000 point jump. Kept the pop off for funzies.
Klowneers Marble Madness (NES Romhack) Speedrun Final Elipsis 2021-11-16 | I found this romhack and decided to try it.It seems...exactly like Marble Madness but harder to see. I don't know why it was made. This was my first complete playthrough and I accidentally did a really good speedrun.I want to call it 2:48.216 but that doesn't super matter.
Marble Madness (NES) 1p2c 5:12 Final Elipsis 2021-10-20 | I believe I'm the second person in the world to finish this meme category.(Sound is behind, don't really know why.)Practice Race - almost GLODBeginner Race - Minor spaghetti on the final screenIntermediate Race - Bad spot early for a -5 I didn't want, but we got the hot drop!Aerial - Wasted such a good crack by cracking... the other one.Silly - Dat wand, finally.Ultimate - Kinda derpy but red had the time to burn on getting dragged around.
Escape Goat 2 - 9-3 22.20s Final Elipsis 2021-07-19 | Fresh new strat discovered by DevilSquirrel! There is a single frame where the player can dash through Toragos without dying and have him still path to the right.He wouldn't do it in a real run...Would heeee?
Escape Goat 2 - 13:50 IGT Final Elipsis 2021-07-19 | Beat my run from 6 years ago by one second after relearning the game and getting significantly more adequate.Nailed ice block jump but took a death in 4-1. Definitely improvable in other areas as well.
Escape Goat 2 - Every Any% IL (Sum of Best of 12:51) Final Elipsis 2021-06-25 | This is my best individual level for every level in the Any% route for Escape Goat 2.This includes several ridiculous IL strats (I'm looking at you 3-4 / 9-2 / 9-5) that you would never* try to do in a real speedrun.
Escape Goat 2 - 1-3 2.86s [WR] (Twice in a row and 4 more times.) Final Elipsis 2021-06-24 | I was really really hoping to tie the TAS at 2.85 here but I just keep getting 2.86s all day.Nonetheless, as I write this I don't think any 2.86s have been recorded on video, and now they really really have.
Escape Goat 2 - 9-2 8.11s (Ouroboros) Final Elipsis 2021-06-17 | This strat is called Ouroboros and it is miserably difficult. This is my second (and fastest) success after an estimated 5000 or so attempts. I'm only the second person in the world to pull it off successfully. It is hard because:1. Henry (the rat) must be dropped in such a way that he walks to the left on a specific pixel, while the player dashes to the right.2. Getting Toragos (the bone snake) to turn up rather than down requires that the player be higher than him on the frame that he makes the decision. Doing this requires a "super boost jump" which is a frame perfect input.3. If both of those things are successful, the player must then to a perfect ice block jump, which is an extremely difficult (single pixel / frame?) jump off of the falling ice block.Then all you have to do is get the keys quickly and not die on the way out.
Escape Goat 2 - 9-4 31.93s [TWR] Final Elipsis 2021-06-13 | Several people have this WR, the trick is to hit the switch on the first frame possible and then successfully use Henry and the goat to hit one button each.
Escape Goat 2 - 8-5 19.31s [TWR] Final Elipsis 2021-06-10 | Gotta get the perfect Henry drop and also the (frame?) perfect dash when the block moves out of the way at the top.
Escape Goat 2 - Spine 5 to 6 1 in 2.00s [TWR] Final Elipsis 2021-06-06 | I kept getting 2.01, 2.03, and the like until this finally happened. It also ties the TAS at 2.00.I think the keys to getting the 2.00 are dashing on the first frame that you can into the gap (getting level with it as soon as is possible), and then again when you touch the ground lined up with the door.
Escape Goat 2 - 4-5 17.43s [WR] Final Elipsis 2021-06-05 | I was stuck at 17.46 for awhile, and I added in the stupid little hop from the TAS to bring my time down a few extra frames.

RetroGamingLiveTVs One Night Only Marble Madness Knockout Tournament 2 - Race 13 Final Elipsis 2020-10-14 | Race 13 had one of the most hype finishes of the tournament, with all of the runners finishing very close together, and Elipsis xor Yelsraek avoiding elimination by less than a second.Yelsraek sent over his Race 13 footage to make this complete composition of all 5 runners possible.
Trials Rising - Gigatrack Platinum in 13:44.149 Final Elipsis 2020-09-29 | There were some big tricks and timesaves, a few stananks, and neaaaaarly a legendary choke at the very very end.
PhaseWorm Speedrun - 36:09.852 [dev WR] Final Elipsis 2020-05-05 | 34 deaths, huge steps forward in consistency.
PhaseWorm First Speedrun - 1:30:57.729 Final Elipsis 2020-04-24 | This the first speedrun of PhaseWorm, coming out on May 4th on Steam. It's definitely improvable with 154 deaths, and I think I could get it to sub hour with a little bit of practice.
PhaseWorm Early Access Trailer Final Elipsis 2020-04-17 | Steam Store Page - store.steampowered.com/app/1287790/PhaseWormTwitter - twitter.com/phasewormWebsite - phaseworm.comDiscord - discordapp.com/invite/yJFyHPhPhaseWorm might initially look like a game that you've seen before. The first few stages will introduce you to movement mechanics that seem straightforward. Next, we'll introduce Phasing. Phasing allows you to match the color of the environmental tiles in order to pass through them. The addition of the one-time passthrough concrete (or grey) tiles adds the additional challenging of carefully planning your path through the grid.Story mode will take you through an increasingly difficult and complex set of 30 themed levels, each with a unique layout. PhaseWorm incorporates a medal system to track your best times on each level. Getting more advanced medals requires more frequent and precise phases. Getting the platinum times on many of these levels will prove to be very challenging. Apples have been carefully placed to challenge the player to build their skills. Let's look at the end of "The Desert Oasis". If you're going for the silver medal, you might phase to yellow and go around the center. If you're pushing for the gold, you can try to go through the grey tiles and phase green while inside them. If you want that platinum medal though, you're going to have to Phase perfectly from yellow to green, then quickly to blue and back to green.Clearing the later stages is really tough, and aquiring the medals for these stages is a big achievement that will push the envelope for elite players.---The game's look and feel can be somewhat customized. Gridlines can be turned off or set to any opacity, and the player can choose to use our themed tileset or switch back to basic colors.We've also included a phase prediction prompt to help you as you progress through the game, and this element can be turned off as well.---PhaseWorm is now available in early access. While the core gameplay for story mode is complete, feedback and statistics from the community will help calibrate medal times and a smoother progression in level difficulty.Future plans for PhaseWorm include more original soundtracks for the stages, a more polished UI, and alternative options for tilesets. We also want to add controller support, with the Phase colors conveniently matching the Xbox controller buttons.---We hope you enjoy PhaseWorm, and encourage you to replay the levels as you improve your skill, or even try speedrunning the entire game!
Trials Rising - Green Belt Silver Medal with 210 Faults in 19:17 Final Elipsis 2020-04-16 | This is my first clear of Green Belt. I probably could have done it with less faults, but I always fail out on time... so I took many "unnecessary" faults in CP6 and CP8.I cleaned up the version from my twitch highlight and edited out the couple of times I paused the game.

The Textorcist Input Bug - Slow Motion Analysis Final Elipsis 2020-04-03 | I keep running into this bug doing speedruns of The Textorcist, so I thought I would document it and hope that the development team can do something productive with this information.
RetroGamingLiveTVs One Night Only Marble Madness Knockout Tournament - Race 10 Final Elipsis 2020-03-31 | Race 10 was one of the most hype races of the tournament, with an incredibly close race and all of us typing WOW or some such things in the race discord.Since I was the only runner not featured on the stream, I was able to pull my local footage and create a complete race view. All videos are now perfectly synchronized so you can see how close this thing really was!
The Textorcist - Magda the Possessed Speedrun - 27 seconds (36 seconds IGT) Final Elipsis 2020-03-26 | Full combo'd the second level and I didn't even have to move.(Accidental early split at the end, it's actually 27 seconds.)

Police 911 2 Arcade Completed in 13:49 Final Elipsis 2020-03-23 | This machine exists in Play Port Arcade in Erie on freeplay and I was able to do a complete run of it - attempting to speedrun it with some success, in 13:49.It's a great game for speedrunning, this video shows the final level and time on the machine.
Marble Madness - 150% Speed in 2:45.255 Final Elipsis 2019-11-19 | Yels convinced me to do this. It actually is slower than my time at 100% (barely!) but I can't let Yels be uncontested on the leaderboard.
Trials Rising - Orange Belt Platinum Medal Final Elipsis 2019-09-06 | Lucked out and got through checkpoint 7 with very few faults. Excited to have finally finished this with a platinum medal!
Trials Rising - Yellow Belt Platinum Medal Final Elipsis 2019-09-03 | This Platinum Medal brought to you by almost choking but then deciding not to choke.Probably spent about 6 hours on this and had a real problem getting consistency with checkpoint 9. Nerves got the better of me and I almost botched checkpoint 10 real bad.
