Few-raters runs must be displayed somewhere, asking to rate them pretty persistently, we just to need to highlight the idea that rating is a great contribution as well.

The word "tier" as used here connotates that something in one grouping is significantly better than something in a lesser grouping. However the way things are being assigned to tiers do not mesh with the word tier at all.
Then we need 3 real tiers:
  • Notable for being "really good"
  • Unnotable
  • Notable for being "really bad"
Definitions of bad are written in the Vault description. Good are runs like 8+, as 8s are given intentionally when the run is in fact "really good". Really bad are 6- runs. I'm not saying that must be automated by rating (if we improve rating guidelines and the weighting system, rating can be taken seriously), but it doesn't really matter, because even if the rating decides, all the rest groups shall still be hand-picked:
  • Recommended/Stars - all must watch them and learn by heart, TASers and newbies.
  • First platform publications
  • AVGN
  • Console-verified
  • Notable improvement
  • Whatever

-Stars could still be used for the absolute best movies of the site, like they've always been.
Even at the risk of sounding like a broken record, stars were never intended to be a "the absolute best movies" symbol. Rather, it means "recommended movie". Not all of the best movies get a star, nor are all the starred movies necessarily the best. The point is that there's a relatively small selection of movies that showcase what's cool about TASing. Whether it's considered a top TAS is inconsequential (although often goes hand-in-hand).
Stars are more about best of the best, what means not just frame perfected, but entertainment-wise incredible. There may still be several candidates to a star, and the ones that weren't chosen must have a rest in moons (after it gets separated from commonplace movies, which must also be divided from vault).

Publish to Vault due to:

Once the more entertaining and faster version is done, it can obsolete both this and Scum's runs.

I just recalled that we actually DO have 3 medal type marks already.
  • Stars were always for bloody-best-I-mean-it = Gold.
  • Moons for valuable perfections, star candidate neighbours, highlight in any way = Silver.
  • Lightning bolt for notable improvements (even SMB 1 frame improvement was really important, though minimal possible) = Bronze. I personally don't ming slight overlapping with the above 2.
3-mark system allows to fairly highlight all that needs to be highlighted, nothing is missed and nothing is abusively added (thanks to highly-trained monkeys). This, and lowering the Vault criteria a bit (6- insread of 7-) really goves a room to keep neither-too-good-nor-too-bad runs, that would really serve "fulfilling the site's goal of being" the base for movies solid in both tech quality & entertainment. That would allow pointing to attracting (in 3 ways) movies manually, and pointing to distracting movies, leaving just-okay runs untouched (unmarked). I find it exhaustive.

I see no problem with unobsoleting what was considered "suboptimal".

Discussing Star-worthy movies with Nach, I'm more and more sure we need 2 hand-picked highligts: Gold (=Stars) and Silver (=Moons), then semi-automated Regular (non-marked), Vault (boring crap) and probably those Demo and Playaround (totally automated by category). It's needed just to keep the awesomeness-based sorting really fair. For example, if a bunch of similar runs is proved to be frame perfect (tased to death), but only one of them is also entertainment-wise perfect, the rest need a Silver. Silver would mark frame perfect records that are cool to watch, but still not Gold.

That requires the Moon tier rules to be reworded too, to put the Moon content higher than it corrently is, which would free the space or a Regular tier.

Wiki: MovieTokens This page teachs how to use tokens to create movie list pages. Basics of the future navigation, movielist generator tips (the final system would look like the submission list generator, from my discussion with staff).

In adventure island manual, the bee cheat is written, but still it's a cheat code. But my own common sence says a single button can't be a cheat code or a password. Just an option. It's not even a combination.

I don't think for now we can end imput earlier that within 12 frames after the restart. Because the pointer sticks to slot 12 only that late, considering we spawned 3 balls. http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/2296295390919136

I actually haven't touched NG2 since my last submission for it, but Xipo recently mentioned that he's found an additional 18 frames of improvement since this submission.
And what do you think of unrejecting this run now?
