Q: Why are you using RTA timing instead of JRTA?
A: I don't really see the point of timing from power on to the end of the credits anymore. This also gives me the luxury of naming files whatever I want without any penalty at the start. For reference, RTA timing is from file creation to closing Geno's final text box (approximately 10:40 faster than JRTA timing).

Q: Do you play on console?
A: Yes, I'm playing on an actual SNES with an authentic SFC cart. I use a stock SFC controller.

Q: Do you use turbo?
A: No. I'll probably buy a turbo controller someday.

Q: Why do you play on the Japanese version?
