On the 6th of September, I achieved a WR of 43:44, but a few obvious errors meant it wasn't as good as it should have been. I wasn't happy enough to call it a job done, so kept working away and this is the result.

I was aiming for a 42:30 and came in under.
Interestingly enough, the same O4M4 timeloss occurred, which is caused by not having a full understanding of the trick I'm trying to manipulate. This lost approx 1 minute 15 seconds, which is a bitter pill to swallow.
However, that isn't enough to spoil the run. I'm more than happy with where things are now, and also think it's good to leave a little something on the table for the future!

Played on high difficulty.
Any% run.
