In Response To: Re: Lol Wu. (uberfoop) : It's not a single shot where you sit down and play through the level and then : record the total time it took. A segmented run is one in which you're : allowed to revert to checkpoints and then edit out all the fail. : Going Nowhere Fast required single-segment runs; quite a lot of the work : SlYnki has been doing recently has been ridiculously optimized segmented : runs. I tend to feel like segmenting is "cheating" in that it's optimizing the hell out of things and ignoring very real time in the "fails", as you say, but he's definitely got some sweet execution. The fact that it's segmented just diminishes the really cool parts for me, though--it's the difference between watching a stunt live or taped. Sure, both took a lot of work, but so much more could go wrong when situations aren't controlled.
