It's easy to do a blindfolded speedrun when you use your third eye.

@@Deses what kind of requirements to unlock the 3rd eye?

Yo that's actually a funny idea I like it lol

I think Joel and Simpleflips did that in a stream once

that would be pretty cool ngl

I know Kosmic did once a stream playing the original Super Mario bros with no video and audio and he would pause all the time asking the chat what is happening on screen

So it wasn't just me thinking about this, good to know.

You son of a gun

so true 😱

Honest mistake. Sorry for not reading the rules

thanks for the clarification! will watch again.

that was deep

it literally confirms that the run is fake. If someone said that to an actual blindfolded runner, that would be an ez 50 for them.

What reason would you have to say no? Like "I'm too good to so something for you."

You do have to change the camera in blindfolded speedruns sometimes but yeah, this guy moves the camera purely for sight

I booted up project 64 to fuck around with the idea. I did a control test. I did the first star sighted. I know that star like the back of my hand and thought it was my best chance at a blindfolded star. I’ve been playing Mario 64 since I was a child. I couldn’t even find the path to get on the mountain once I got disoriented once. I managed to get to the chain chomp before getting bogged down in the lack of awareness of where I was. Every adjustment had to be INTENTIONAL if I was going to do it properly. One little screw up, and you’re off course for good.

Maybe we should make a videogame specifically for blind people.

Found you again😭

Hi

Hey, wait, yeah! He’s trying to say all this stuff about how he’s so good, it’s all muscle memory, and then he also feels the need to say there are audio cues that he uses. Not to mention that he’s screaming over those audio cues...

Upside down with noise canceling headphones

and dead!

It’s only a joke run if you declare it sometime before during or slightly after, or it’s extremely obvious, like Kosmics Super Mario Bros coke and pizza %

@@shardofkingdoms9816 exactly

@@shardofkingdoms9816 or if it’s obvious that it’s a joke. Like what’s the joke here? It’s a blindfolded run but he can see? Hilarious.

i can't believe how idiotic this guy is

Sucks for him because now ALL of his runs are joke runs

Agreed! Steam does it if you're caught cheating. You'll get a permanent VAC or EAC ban stamp put right on your profile page for everyone to see. Pretty sure it can still be seen even if you private the profile.

I agree. Cheaters like this guy should be blacklisted

That alone isn't enough. Perma ban and the verified cheater mark sounds good though

Or like when he said the red coin at the pole told him where he was. Uh, how did you get that far by "muscle memory" without know where you were??

To be fair, people can have better knowledge of one part of a game than another part. I can play the guitar (although not brilliantly) and some parts of a song I can do without thinking and not paying attention to what I'm doing, but other parts I have to concentrate and have to keep watching my hand. It's still bs that he's acting as though he's blindfolded, but not because of the inconsistency of muscle memory vs sound cues.

@@lisahenry20 There's no muscle memory period in what he was doing, it was a funny excuse

@@nyandoesthings He can dodge enemies and line up the long jump but he's suddenly confused by the submarine lol.

The things is, if he'd admitted to it being a joke right after finishing the game on stream, it would've been funny. He could've said "I totally got you all!" to his viewers, congratulated the people in chat who saw through the BS and then taken everyone through bits ofw the run and pointed out how ridiculous it was to think he was blindfolded. Everyone would've laughed and he could've kept his credibility, perhaps even gaining new fans. The fact it was only "a joke" after being disproven proves that it was never a joke. A joke is revealed to be a joke by the comedian, not exposed by others.

Yeah pretty much

It's like posting a dumb comment on Twitter and then saying "I was hacked".

Nope, in fact, he was held in first place in blindfold speedrun a week before taken down for cheating. (May 7 - 13)

But he probably got way more excitement and this money, from doing a "blind run". My guess is his time wasn't very good so he just decided to fake a blinded run. The weird thing is he could go and learn blind strats to at least make it look legit. But he just uses normal strats which he's decently good at to cheat the run. It's bizarre.

Key word is "fine," he was probably never going to be top tier Mario 64 runner (it's a very popular category), and apparently he wasn't fine with just running a game for the fun of it... So he tried to be the best at something he's only "fine" at when no blindfolds are involved.

The best part is, the cheater made an apology video with all the cliche apology quotes like the sigh at the beginning or the “I didnt know what i was doing”

the fact ppl are saying wats wrong and showing the evidence also helps them hide better if they fully know what they should hide which at some point kinda worths more to legit, but still some cheaters have indeed prospered, they havent been found

@@isaakyhsialf4369 yeah but at one point there is so much they can do to hide it if more and more people knows about the cheats , it becomes a question if its even worth it to put all the effort. But still , as you said , there mist be some fake runs still up there unfortunately . I have been looking at some videos catching fake runs and some of them are 10 years old , due to not having the means at the time to figure out some of the cheats that we have now , and probably will still happen in the future where we will find that some of the present runs are actuallu faked.

The issue is twofold - first more people are entering speedrunning, so there's a larger pool of players, it following that you will have more cheaters. But also as speedrunning becomes more popular, the perceived "clout" of having a verified run is increased, increasing the incentive towards cheating. It should be expected that after passing a certain critical mass, speedrunning will experience massive increases in cheating.

@@CuriousKey indeed. i hope the moderators and/or the judges will employ more means to cover the increases in speedrunners. hiring more to cover a largercrowd.

@@ZelosSama There are potential issues there too - if for example it ever becomes the case that the verifying institution makes money from traffic (ads, donations etc) then you already have an incentive for them to accept highly popular runs, regardless of whether they are faked. This has already been an issue in the past - "celebrities" in speedrunning have been subject to far looser standards due to the crowd they draw. So I say it's about more than having merely enough moderation, you also need moderation that has no incentive towards capitulation.
