(Much like this.)

You say that like there's anything else you can actually accomplish at TASVideos.

Something like this, maybe?

Nobody is gonna actually do that, so it's basically belling the cat. Sure, it'd be nice, but nobody is gonna try it, so... it's probably better to just forget the whole issue.

I'd do it, if I had a server to host a wiki on...

Well, why don't we? If they're going to be the way they are, I can think of no better way to shit on them by obsoleting their site. It doesn't matter if what comes of it is a simple index or something more full-fledged. In fact, here's how I would do it: target the Japanese demographic. They're primary missing integral in TASvideos, and if we can bring them in en masse, many others should follow suit. In the meantime, spread it by word of mouth, just chat up unassociated people who've TASed and bring them over.

We wouldn't necessarily need torrents/downloads, as most of said TASes end up on YouTube and the like. The input files would naturally be there. Of course, in regards to layout, both possible layouts have their pros and cons: while an index would be nice and simple, we could crush them under modern design if we so chose. Since comments are a nice thing but not always practical (language barriers), the primary focus should be pages/information on the glitches - something TASvideos does have, but is erratic and concealed at best.

It's more than possible! We just need to put our best foot forward.

You are right. Too bad no one is going to put ANY feet forward to do this.

If I had any serious skill in programming websites I totally would do it with my currently useless web host..

But as said, I suck at doing anything that requires extensive coding.

Didn't stop me from trying to re-invent The Cutting Room Floor in a wiki format as Debug Modes & Unused Stuff. Then look what happened with that.

Hell, do it and I'll even make some new, heavily-tightened-up Curb Stomp Jeopardy Videos.

I'll pitch in to contribute and get word around, I would love to see a new TAS site made and run right (though I don't have as much credentials as a leader to start something like this myself).

There's just one problem.
You let a pony-addled mind think on it too hard and now...

Admittedly Nicole did kind of totally indirectly give me the idea to name it that.. But the name has nothing to do with TAS' so it will probably change, just eventually like the URL.. Since I really want to shed off "ocellix" as soon as possible.

Actually it fits pretty well. Dash TAS database has a certain ring to it.

I could contribute to make pages for it.

Feel free to.

I'm trying to speed it up a lot more, I note it is oddly slow (unusual, considering I have done heavier work before..)

I had "Tool Assisted Superplay" in mind as a name. It describes the videos better than "Speedrun" (since not all of them aim for speed), and retains the acronym.

Anyway, I can start adding templates and shit within the next couple days, if that's not just an example setup that's going to vanish soon.

Paulguy's Post configuration
I hope this doesn't just become people trying to do stunts and stuff, but rather more shows game specific behavior at the frame level. Or doing amusing stuff like that family feud one with the dirty language (Though dirty language is obviously not specifically what I'm looking for.).

On the other hand, it shouldn't be just a big nasty game glitch database, since I imagine those exist already anyway.

Feel free to start shoving templates all over it, and alter the other ones.
I really have no understanding of them, it took me a few hours just to clone the "bob" from tcrf and clip stuff to make it apply just as a "game" entry (Even then it is not 100% working..).



Also paul, what do you mean by 'stunts'? Many TAS'es seem to use glitches, so they will show up but I'm not going to let it become an index of exploitable glitches. As the entries will be about the run, and that specifically. So if it's not a run, we probably wont have it indexed. (Unless overall opinion is different, and community wishes to include some more content..)

I wouldn't mind a prominent page for each game also noting glitches in it that are useful for TAS's- ideally this wouldn't be tied to a particular run, but just for each game, and could be updated by anyone.

I also agree with the "Speedrun" -> "Superplay" renaming...

...do you read threads?

Like, at all?

Because that post is pretty much completely missing the point of this thread.

Before you post again, I would highly recommend looking at the first few posts, and perhaps read the entire thread before you contribute to ANY thread again.
