This time beats the previous any% world record held by amoser, a 36:49, a 8 second improvement. It also beats my previous time by 38 seconds.
I kinda don't believe this run exists tbh. I wanted to believe something was wrong again, maybe I had missed the beginning split or something. But retiming the run still resulted in this time.
Earlier in the stream I was struggling and failing at making mediocre runs still be 37s before starting this one.
After getting the 37:19 I proceeded to do 8 full-runs that didn't deliver a PB. Which in my history, is the largest amount of runs it took me before accomplishing so.
And I wasn't expecting getting anything like this... at no point in this run did I think it was gonna PB by that much, let alone PBing at all.
Well, about that. Because the run did start great. Rongo Lango and Pamela weren't perfect, but I probably got my best 3-1 ever, including the switch trick.
But I thought I spilled some of that time-save with this really stupendous decision at the start of 3-2 (also why does this word mean the exact opposite of how it appears to be written like;;). It's like, you got a great stage, but suddenly it's not so savory anymore.
Perfect Gelg Bolm was expected, and then the 4-1 w-c where I lost 40 seconds. I managed to retrieve most of them back. I then failed the end room skip on the left side (the usual for me)... and then I tripped and failed it again on the right side !
By this point I though the run was fast enough to get 37. Not PB or if so by a measly margin, but enough to make a decent time. The run was uneventful until 5-2 which I perfected. Joka was alright. And then 6-1 was also basically perfect, which is hard ! I did fail 6-2 once though. Even though in retrospect things really imply the contrary, I thought I lost my chance at PBing there. And I thought I made that loud and clear to me by failing Ghadius completely... making a calculation mistake.
In the end, I got the luck in Naha I and nailed the -14s strat, and III had good RNG for once.
(I stopped going for Naha II TAS strat in order to make things less difficult). It probably was my best Nahatomb, and it won't be easy to match again.
And yet, my sorry ass didn't think it was gonna PB
This unusual belief may be explained by the fact that I tend to misjudge the cost of my mistakes to be higher than what they are.
But another major fact to consider is my deliberate disregard of the splits. As you know, I prefer "sensing" the pace rather than looking at concrete metrics, mostly because it's fun but not only. I'm not gonna go over it again, but clearly, both of these element play a huge role in making me feel completely oblivious to this time.
About the splits being imperfect... yea, I think I've come to the conclusion that I have some sort of lack of attention when it comes to these... its genuinely harder for me to flawlessly activate all of the splits in a run than to complete a 37 min run.
Not to say I've had to reset my splits 4 or 5 times ever since returning to this, as every single time, inaccurate numbers would surface or I would accidentally save splits that have impossible golds. I often wonder why I even bother with them, but I obviously know better.
I'm still gonna let you guys confirm if this is indeed accurate or not. My mind refuses to acknowledge this run until it's verified (or else).
Though even if it is real, I'm still gonna continue running. I want to score more 36s and get better runs.
There's clearly still room for improvement, especially for me. I think in the long term, 35 is possible, but it would be extremely difficult, lucky, and ask for a lot of perfection.
