...things didn't go so well, seemingly. Rayman: Legends. I was trying to beat my best time, which (I think) is about 8 hours and 10 minutes. At various points, though, I made a bunch of stupid mistakes. I mean, a LOT of needless mistakes. At the time, I thought I had added on maybe 20 minutes to my playthrough, which, as I'm sure any serious speedrunner will tell you, is a real problem. I was aiming to coming in at under 8 hours and 10 minutes, but I estimated it would be about 8 hours and 30 minutes. When I did finish, though, and checked my time...it was 8 hours and 7 minutes. I couldn't believe it. I must've made lots of small improvements at various points, without really realising it, which does happen to me quite a lot.

Really weird speedrun.

So, I was pleased. I probably set a new PB, although I don't really remember what my record was. And, of course, I did about 8 hours of gaming in a single day, which is usually a very good sign. Right, friends?

If it makes CE feel better, the WR is just under 6 hours, I think.

I used to work longer than that. Ironically, it was 4 hour shifts I worked at one job that time almost stopped at.

Improvement without noticing is nice, although it makes me think "fuck, was I just bad the whole time until now?"

This is between those 2 types. It's called a 700 Teensie speedrun. The WR is, I think, just under 6 hours, and like I said, I'm at just over 8 hours.
