Came to the comments cause I thought I might’ve accidentally started a different video

🤨 📸

@@aname4390 listen to be clear I DIDNT But with how the video looks you could have a live execution, a splice, 13 participants, and an entirely separate speed run in the middle of it and no one would be any the wiser.

Only high level runs require verification in most of the big games. In fact if your time is long enough they dont even require video proof

@@YOSSARIAN313 can confirm this is false. Run is verified by a real person and wasn’t posted to the board until it was verified. Whether or not they actually watched it is another question, but the video was required.

​​@@totalphantasm same for the one speedrunning community I'm part of. And we're only 4 in it XD

Something like farmer% would crop up, a run where all your food has to have been grown by the player lol

The SDA said in itself: no unintentional, hunger reset are intentional

It's an option. Personally, I find it absurd that the Minecraft speedrunning groups give known cheats direct access to the moderators (who would permanently ban them if it was any other game).

@@btf_flotsam478 what are you talking about?

@@Not_Pie As someone who's been following Minecraft speedrunning for 5 years, I have no idea. Edit: I take that back. It must be a reference to the Four thing that's mentioned toward the end of the "How Speedrunners Cheat" video on this same channel. [If you don't want to go watch it, the claim is that shortly prior to the calculator unban, Four -- a speedrunner and at the time a leaderboard moderator -- completed a PB run with calculator without telling anybody, and submitted it to the leaderboards to be verified (which it was) in an attempt to demonstate that calculators should be unbanned because enforcing a rule against them was impossible.) I didn't know about that and I don't think I have enough context to try to say much about it now.

From my point of view SDA is evil!

My favourite part about this comment was when you talked about how you liked the part where he talked about The Politics of Speedrunning! Super Cool!

This video was an abomination when it comes to the political aspects. From getting basic facts wrong, such as Vietnam being "the first war America lost" (this statement is impressive because it is both wrong in the sense that America had lost wars in the past, such as the War of 1812, but also wrong in the sense, that America was never at war with Vietnam), to misunderstandings of historical global events, such as "self-determination" and "autonomy" having nothing to do with Ho Chi Minh's rise, as he was fighting for communism (Democratic Vietnam was setup with the help of America, with a transitory dictatorship, much like Japan, South Korea, and Republic of China had). It's also laughable to think that democracy represents "the rule of all", as no government represents that, due to it being impossible/anarchy.

The leaderboards are only really relevant for competition for the top runners. No one cares about your mid tier runs, and that's fine, you compete against yourself and you can set whatever rules you want, or follow whatever rules are set when you want a time on the leaderboard.

@@KILLKIDspeedrun I'm not an active runner. Cope harder.

which further connects to real world politics. for example, in the US, its against the interests of the 2 big parties(democrats and republicans) to update the voting system in the country from a first past the post system to something else, such as ranked choice voting, despite first past the post being the least accurate voting method.

@@iruleatgames lmaoooo imagine being anti-communism in 2023 that’s so embarrassing

@@sarahspeedrun6419 Imagine being pro Khmer Rouge, PRC, USSR, and DPRK, which is in essence a pro-genocide position.

@@iruleatgames mf really thought communism is when country says so 💀

@@sarahspeedrun6419 Communism is when the government embraces overwhelmingly collectivist policies in both social and economic spheres. The amount of hubris to believe that you determine what "true communism" is, is staggering, and is the typical example of "I would be the perfect dictator" syndrome.

I mean the videos description of Vietnamese independence is pretty accurate. In many ways vietnamese independence can be paralleled to American independence, violent protesters fight guerilla war for the rihht of self governance. Ho Chi Min wasn't a saint, but the overall movement was largely good for the Vietnamese. Luna Oi is wack tho

@@samvsmedia8680 The problem with obtaining independence after a violent revolution is that the new leaders tend to run the state the way they used to run a guerilla movement, in an opaque and non-pluralistic way. Which often breeds authoritarianism and/or corruption

It's absolutely fire, please keep making stuff like it

It wouldn't make sense for the world record holder to verify his own run, would it

@@xXJ4FARGAMERXx even in communities where high level runners do comprise the majority of the mod team, it is common for verifiers and mods to not verify their own runs. especially in high profile and high proof requirement games like minecraft

@@xXJ4FARGAMERXx I'm not sure what you're trying to communicate with this comment, but to be clear, Minecraft speedrunners however talented do not verify their own runs anymore and haven't for years.

comparing the creation/running of individualised speedrunning communities vs a top down in structure metacommunity for speedrunning to the vietnam conflict actually

There are two main calculators that are allowed by the mods. One of them (used in the earlier versions) does have you manually write your position and angle but the other more popular uses an ingame shortcut that copies your position and angle in a command format (F3+C). The shortcut is a part of the game that can be activated in any situation and in any gamemode and it works like any other copy/paste function. Therefore the calculator works without relying on reading data straight from the game.

minecraft is a pretty unique game due to how constant and significant decision making is, with the speed you make decisions throughout the run being a very real skill. the scope of this video didn’t allow for going into depth about the myriad of tools that were created at that point of the game’s development, with many of those tools undermining various aspects of high level play that were understood to matter at the time. since then, the calculator ban has been lifted and it seems attitudes have largely changed about stronghold calculations being an integral skill for the run. to;dr comparison to a more traditional notes doc doesnt really hold up that well, both due to scope of tool and nature of game

Like the other person said, the player copies the relevant data to clipboard using a vanilla, survival-accessible command (F3+C). The calculator (which is called Ninjabrain bot after its creator) reads the clipboard and performs the calculations on it. It's rather too sophisticated to be easily compared to notes, though, because it's not a direct parallel to what a player does when they're estimating stronghold location manually. Manual methods such as 4-jump estimation or axis calculated work off of triangulation. Throw an eye of ender, measure the angle. Move a ways to the side, do it again. Angle difference and distance moved tell you about how far away the stronghold is. And there are more accurate and less accurate ways of doing this in your head, or with a manageably small spreadsheet. Ninjabrain bot (as well as the gray-area pre-unban methods that Feinberg was touching on in his complaint shown in this video), takes advantage of the rules of Minecraft world generation to go a bit further than a person could ever do on their own, and they don't rely on triangulation. (They can use it to make measurements more accurate when necessary, and in practice a majority of runs using calculator will still throw two eyes, but they are fundamentally single-eye-throw methods.) The bot also incorporates some fairly sophisticated statistical methods to allow the runner to make good decisions about whether or not to throw a second eye, among other things. It's all working off of that same data and that anybody can copy and paste for themselves, but it makes that data do a lot of work. In practice, the difference between using calculator and not using calculator is pretty significant. There is only one person left not using calculator who is widely considered to be a top runner, and that's Couriway. He doesn't do world record attempts anymore as a rule, but from how he performs in the Ranked mod (a 1v1 elo system that came out recently), he's still very good. But he's hanging out around 25th instead of the top 10 he'd probably be otherwise, because he gives up probably a minute per run on average to the calculator. Which is a lot when the entire run is probably only going to be about 12 minutes. Calculator unban changed a lot. (And since you brought it up: ironically, a less well-known Minecraft speedrunning category, All Advancements, does allow direct reading of *some* game files. It's for the specific purpose of serving as a replacement for manual notes, and it's never been controversial as far as I know.)

@@mj-jl5nc Well that's how it was for a while, sort of, but I agree with the mod team on that that it's completely unenforceable as to what kind of calculator you use unless you limit it very strictly to just four functions. (The best methods for triangulation using nothing more than mental math or four function calculators, you had to line up in specific spots and measure certain things to get specific results, so you would have been able to tell from a video whether that's what the player was actually doing.) And for whatever reasons, it was not decided to do that.

They don’t use bots

My man verification has ALWAYS required several different world files, so ur wrong there. Plus, the texture pack thing is a complete non-issue entirely, and doesn’t impact 99.9% of the playerbase bc most don’t even want to change their textures anyways. Purely cosmetic. The only thing that I’ll give you was messy was the calculator situation lmao 😂
