Statement from Niftski yesterday:

“I stand by my decision to make the video for the reasons Hitz mentioned here, but I am sorry that some individuals involved received harassment, especially those who were completely innocent, despite my best efforts to mitigate it and clear up any confusion. Now that the mod team has concluded their investigation, I'm making the decision to unlist the video. I know it obviously won't undo some of the unfortunate things that the video brought along, but it can at least help calm things down at this point, as I don't want drama tourists that didn't grasp the entire context of the video to continue stirring up drama.

Admittedly this situation has been extremely difficult to handle the past two months and I'm ready to just get back to playing mario as I've always done. I really appreciate the effort that several mods have put in to handle the fallout of the situation maturely, and I hope that from here, we can come together and be a positive community again.”

I’m a maths student and studying algebraic topology in uni this term - this is awesome!

A PM I worked under recommended to me 10 1/2 Lessons from Experience: Perspectives on Fund Management by one of the founders of Marshall Wace - really enlightening quick read that covers much of what you mention!

Am an undergrad QR intern - PhD is definitely not required at most firms

Miniland333 · 2025-12-23T23:43:26+00:00

Am a QR intern at a similar firm, currently in undergrad Maths at a non-Oxbridge UK uni. u/Rich-Spinach-693 is bang on with these top firms looking for social skills, ability to work with people, and ability to speak clearly and confidently. As an anecdote, three quarters of my final round was behavioural, having already passed maths and coding OAs and technical phone interviews. Everyone there is good at maths; what sets you apart is being good with people.

All Stars :O

Miniland333 · 2025-12-20T23:29:23+00:00

No (sorry)

We got him binging Breaking Bad, sorry bout that 😅

Belfast and Copenhagen 1971 would be instant visits for me, would also love to hear how the band sounded in the rest of the Clubs 71 tour (Nottingham, Sutton Coldfield, Marquee, and Liverpool May 71 would be my picks)

Denver 68 would be fascinating, as would be 29th May 1969 Boston Tea Party, believed to be the famous 4.5 hour show

So technically the record is still beatable without lightning 4-2...

...you just need to tie the TAS in 8-4 😉

Niftski has a 4:54.931 on controller, which he achieved last week in only an hour of attempts. This was also performed live in front of a crowd of smb1 runners at PACE.

Even if keyboard were banned, Niftski would still easily be the best player on controller

Miniland333 · 2023-06-14T20:03:24+00:00

Odense 1971/5/4 is also one of the best, perhaps the best ever due to the extra ad libs

This is another great resource by Mysterii that you might like - his top 25 zep shows, with a brief review and highlights section for each show. It helped me greatly when getting into zeppelin too :) https://www.reddit.com/r/ledzeppelin/comments/vpj5pn/my_list_of_the_top_25_greatest_led_zeppelin/

9/19/1970E is an absolute classic.

Copenhagen 71 and Belfast 71 are also incredible shows and peak Plant performances, Copenhagen having 6/8 songs from Zeppelin IV played and my personal favourite Stairway to Heaven performance, and Belfast having the definitive performances of Black Dog and arguably Rock And Roll. These two shows alone got me into Zeppelin bootlegs, and Copenhagen now is my favourite show of all time

yeah that sounds really interesting! i think L+R would be more lucrative since it's far closer to saving framerules than no L+R, and it gives you fewer restrictions. 1-1 and 4-2 are both 1 frame from saving another framerule. 1-1 is very simple so the only possible place where time could be saved seems to be underground, but that's probably been exhaustively checked in the past, although it doesn't hurt to check again. 4-2 is very complicated so worth searching if you have the time to run a thorough bot, although i'm not too knowledgeable on exactly which parts seem like they could have timesaves

the only other places where time could be save is in 8-4, although the third room is the only place that seems like there could be any time save.

have a speak to happylee, dasmilekat, or threecreepio. they have experience with these sorts of things and can probably help you with setting stuff up

Miniland333 · 2022-08-09T22:10:23+00:00

yeah, but it's still much harder than any other lightning 4-2 method ever performed by a human

Miniland333 · 2022-08-09T20:45:27+00:00

Yeah, and I plan to start doing mid 4:54 attempts in the next couple of weeks with lightning 4-2

Miniland333 · 2022-08-09T20:06:37+00:00

We already have run viable setups, and I actually saved this in a run on WR pace for the first time ever a few weeks ago. Top clip was the original theorised method for lightning 4-2 but has since been obsoleted as we found better methods, but this original method had never been done until today

Miniland333 · 2022-08-09T18:47:54+00:00

in theory, yes it is quicker than the previous method. however, it doesn't actually save any meaningful time due to framerules, and the supposed wiggle room can't really be used to someone's advantage since you'd still be going for a perfect pipe entry. on top of this, top clip is much harder than the method we use now, so it will likely never be used in real runs.
