Future speedrun endevours

I'm sending this out as a sub email because I really like writing these, but I didn't want everyone all over me for whatever games I'm running. Things like this are subject to change, but I feel like giving myself a basic outline gives me more direction, and I suppose you guys and girls are probably the ones that care the most. So here we go.

So in case you haven't seen, I've played a lot of games since I've gotten back from AGDQ. You can see what that kinda looks like here: http://www.speedrun.com/user/werster
A lot of these games were just preliminary runs, I might go back to them and improve at some point. I know how to run so many games, and I want to run as many games as possible (probably 100+ runs by the time I'm done) and I'm really enjoying building a profile that more resembles what I see myself as, as a speedrunner, rather than just "the Pokemon guy"

Alternatively, you can check out this google doc, which has some runs that don't appear on my speedrun.com profile, such as more lesser categories (like Battle Tower, or Pokemon Stadium full runs) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EBXBxLA_MoIci_S3wilpg4osqdK0T5JXuyXamsmfbk0/edit?usp=sharing (This is straight from my info section, which I updated recently)

Anyway. Into games. None really have a specific goal time other than "i feel kinda good about the run"

Current project:

Pokemon Gold

Probable next project:

Sonic 2 & Knuckles

Probable short-mid term projects:

Pokemon Fire Red Round 2
Pokemon Emerald (both any% glitchless and any%) - Not All Gold Symbols, with the new glitches I can't express the insane amount of routing this would take. Everything I've done in the past is out the window, I'd have to start at square one with 100x more possibilities

Short-Mid term Big projects: These are games that will require lots and lots of routing and practice to get good at, but are at the forefront of my mind

Golden Sun 2 - This game not only is a routing mess, it has 4 categories that I'd like to run (any%, Djinns & summons, and then both of those w/ max password). Will take a lot of time but I've wanted to do this run for over 5 years
Sonic Battle - This is just a really long game that I don't know too much about running, which is why it'll take so much preperation. I want to do a run though, especially since doing 1 full run technically would count as 9 runs, since you go through every story, and some of those stories have no runs submitted at all (and I hate blank space on leaderboards, it's part of the reason why I've played so many lesser known sonic games recently)
Wario Land 3 - I really do want to learn this game this year. More reasons on why below

Mid-Long term big projects:

Sonic Advance 1 - Tails/Knux
Sonic Advance 3 - any%/Best Ending

Side Projects: This list was insanely long, but I've knocked out just about all the Sonic games (doing Drift 2 attempts while I write this, which I think is my last one?) These will probably just be whenever I don't feel like doing other things, once again just to get a full run of these in one video would be really nice

Pokemon Stadium 1 - Round 1 + 2 (Full Game)
Pokemon Stadium 2 - Round 1 + 2 (Full Game)
Pokemon Stadium 2 - Gym Leader Castle Round 2

Other projects: http://pastebin.com/0rUKrpTh (Note: This obviously has games already listed above, and some of these games have already been done. But it's a big list of games I think about in the future, not just the near future)

AGDQ 2016: I'd love to go to ESA, and I'd like to go to SGDQ, but I just don't have another 2K to splurge a year on going to these events, and so the next marathon I'm thinking about is AGDQ 2016. As a result, I'm already thinking of the games I want to submit/run there, because I like to prepare. They are:

Pokemon Emerald any% - This is definitely the ideal Pokemon game to run next year (especially if Hoenn isn't touched this SGDQ, part of the reason why I think that is the best time to run 151). At past GDQs I've done glitched runs of Gen 1, Gen 2, Gen 4 (SS), Gen 3 is the only one left. Hoenn hasn't been touched yet, and the glitches are much lesser known than the other games, so I feel like it could surprise some people

Wario Land 2/3 - 3 is probably more likely to get in, but I'd probably submit both just in case. These games are awesome, I love the movement, they both have cool wall jumps and OoB shit and haven't been run before, I'd love to do one at a GDQ

<filler 2 Sonic games/some meme game like Pingu> - Haven't decided yet. Depends what I get serious about I guess

Other games I will most probably specifically return to (this is mainly because my time got beaten):

Pingu
Tails Adventure
Sonic Battle - Sonic's Story
Sonic Labyrinth - any% (time didn't actually get beaten, I don't have the record. But I'm very close)
Sonic 2 (SMS) - any% & Best Ending (time didn't get beaten, I just want these runs to be really solid, and I'm the best runner for the games)
Sonic Triple Trouble - any% Tails (time hasn't been beaten YET, but if it does get taken I'd love to get some competition going for this. And a few people are hunting it down)

Youtube/Individual Levels: I like to work on other projects outside of streaming, which is usually doing ILs of games. Here are some of the games I'm working on ILs on atm:

Sonic 2 and Knuckles - Kinda getting back into this game, some of my old ILs aren't up to standard anymore so just improving them
Sonic 3 and Knuckles - Almost done with these ILs, they are all a really high standard imo. Also working on the last few competition mode levels
Wario Land 3 - Very, very close to finishing off these Time Attacks. Only 2 more to go
Sonic 1 GBA - Might make a complete IL chart for this, the game is a stupid kind of fun, and the ILs are easy to beat the current records because no one runs the game
Wii Fit - I never really made videos for this game in the past and it's really fun. I used to be really competitive with this, and am pretty good at the balance games (but really bad at aerobics lol), will probably make some more vids of this in the future


Thanks for reading as much as you did, and thanks for watching as always! As you can see I'm a busy man, I take my speedrunning pretty seriously, I love putting in effort and it's really enjoyable. I hope you guys enjoy future runs too. If you have any specifics questions about anything here, message back and I'll be sure to get back to you ^_^
