Murmilio's Speed Running Recap/Plans 2015/2016

Speed Running is fun. I'll keep doing it.
I'm too tired to look all the minute details and dates but here's the recap.

-I started Speed Running with Superstar Saga
-I started off slow but got fast
-I got Any% World Record twice ending with a 1:16:54
-I started doing Superstar Saga All Bosses for a little while
-Ended my time with like a 3:23:00 or something around that
-I went to SM64DS after that
-My current PB is a 1:35:xx
2015 GG

=== Plans for 2016 ===
I have a couple goals and have planned some stuff that i hope i can do if i get around to them.

I want to get a better time in SM64DS. The more time that passes, the more I learn that 80Star is not my style.
The run is fun and i like it, just I'm more biased toward more 2D platforms and RPGs.(Why I like the Mario RPGs so much)
I don't want to leave it though without at least a sub 1:30:00.

Superstar Saga was fun and kinda holds a special place in my heart. If i find the time/motivation, I want to learn the new All Bosses Route and get a time closer to WR/ beat it if the run stays fun. I'm fine with Any% for now but kinda want a more clean run. I played well in WR but most of the timesaver in that were due to godlike RNG and I'm pretty sure I can get a better time with only above average/ more common RNG. Unless I can become consistent at getting 3 on power bonuses which then I will go for a super optimized time. Also if someone beats WR I will come back to Any% right away. I think it would be fun if it was super competetive.

--- New Games ---
I am interested in a bunch of games, but here is the most likely.

Pretty much a guarantee to learn is Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow. The only Castlevania i have ever played and I really like it. The game is very execution heavy and it's pretty short (categories range from 10-30 minutes). There are a bunch of categories I am interested but I think the first I'll learn is Any% No HP Glitch. I'll learn the other categories depending on how it goes but I only like Soma so probably not any Julius runs.

Mario RPGs in general look like fun speed games. If TTYD ever gets palace skip/ gets shorter by another hour, I'll give Any% a try. The other PM games seem fun too but TTYD is my favorite. Things don't look good for the M&L games. IDK if anyone is still glitch hunting besides for Paper Jam, but they are too long for me. Even Partners in Time (WR=4hours) is a little too long especially since I won't be fast for the first half of me running it. Anyways I'll play Paper Jam Casually. If I like it and the speed run is predicted to be shorter than PiT then I'll run it. (Camcorder Quality lol)
