How do speed runners maintain their sanity when they do 2+ hour runs that have "frame perfect" parts that require like 1/60th of a second reactions? 1) frame perfect tricks don't require extremely fast reaction, they require extremely precise timing. Which is a lot easier. there are a variety of cues runners might use 2) many common speedrun games don't run at 60fps. banjo kazooie for example (since run of it just happened) runs at 30fps which means a frame perfect trick has twice as big a time window as you might expect.

Which is a lot easier. there are a variety of cues runners might use 2) many common speedrun games don't run at 60fps. banjo kazooie for example (since run of it just happened) runs at 30fps which means a frame perfect trick has twice as big a time window as you might expect. Not saying they're easy to do but they aren't quite as hard as you think Exactly this. If you haven't noticed a significant portion of runners will ask for silence when they have a "Frame Perfect" Trick or section to perform since a lot of them use audio queues to help focus. Eventually you just get so good at doing the same thing 1000 times or more that you end up not even thinking about it and just doing it. A perfect example is when a few years ago someone at ADGQ did the tetris game where you can get grand master ( I have no idea of the full game name) but when he needed to do the end section during the credits and you can't see the blocks they ask for complete silence. That is because the runner is using audio queues to determine where the blocks are (since memorization can only get you so far when they are falling that fast) to determine how to make their next move. <cite>Shadow_Of_Fenix posted [p:882342143] in SGDQ (Summ...

So the decision was that the guy's banned from future GDQ event, I believe, and it could extend to the runner since they've done that before.
