Grand Memory Clobber-rama!

Background:

The "Grand Memory Clobber" is a glitch in Dragon View that is triggered initially by killing the first boss, Piercia, and manifests itself as a colossal game crash at the cutscene in Ortah (about 40% of the way through the game).  The death animation of Piercia uses one byte in RAM as an animation timer, and doesn't clear it after it is done with it; this byte is later used as a loop counter for the Ortah cutscene.  Instead of running the loop a single time, the loop iterates over a hundred times, storing/overwriting a bunch of bytes in memory, running all kinds of nonsense code it should never see, and cycling through every single byte in RAM.  The real description is quite a bit more complicated than that, but this is close enough for our purposes.  In short, this creates all kinds of boo-boos that will crash the game, but if we are extraordinarily lucky it will accidentally call the credits.  As this glitch depends on literally every single byte in RAM, and control to that extent is far beyond our capabilities, it is essentially entirely random whether or not the credits are called.

Grand Memory Clobber-rama:

Therefore, the best chance I have of finishing a run of this is just to throw a LOT of attempts at it and hope that a single one succeeds!  Welcome to the Grand Memory Clobber-rama!

Beginning Sunday, Jan 28, and lasting for at least 7 days, I will be doing 9 hours of attempts of Dragon View every day.  On each day, if I gain 10 new subscribers, I will add an extra hour of attempts.  I'll begin a new run as long as the time limit hasn't been reached (i.e. If I'm ready to start a new run and the timer is at 8:55, I'll do it even though it'll extend beyond 9 hours).

Since I *did* somehow succeed in finishing this category once this week, I'll be spending the remaining days trying to improve the time!  If I don't improve it by the end of Saturday, that time will stand and I will not ever try to improve it.  This week is the last time I will ever attempt this category.
