More acceptable run : (I think I split a bit late maybe it's a 1:27:36 ? but doesn't matter anyway)



Death in MN2 (not a big time loss)



Bongo Hills was ok except BH 2.......



Allegro was decent (safe strats, allegro clip 2) like Twilight Gulch



MSP was confused but very good boss fight



Revisits pretty decent, gold on AL2



Eraser Plains is still awful (need to really work on it) but way better than my last PB



Gold on Pencil Pentathlon, Crystal Palace and Eat at Joe's (5:45 on it is a very good time for me). SMC good until boss fight. Quite good Skops.



Stupid death on MDD 3 ewww. One double hit on final boss.



1:25 I am coming !!!

Third attempt at recording a run and first to be published.

Many mistakes in this run, but Eat at Joe's and Crystal Palace were particularly bad.
To be improved!

There is a reason I briefly had the :destroy: smiley pointed at a picture of Joe in my signature back in 2014 :hap:

With this run, I have achieved my ultimate goal with Rayman speedrunning, a sub [1:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNWMF1sSixs&t=80s) time and a single digit rank on the leaderboard! I am so pleased with this run, played really well throughout and managed to keep my cool, even after failing stormer skip skip by the tiniest amount. Been very motivated to pb lately, and now it's done!

Mainly yes, also the fact that he was acting all friendly while sending Rayman through some of the most dangerous levels in the game.

Also IIRC I knew even then they could be punched, but that knowledge didn't prove very helpful to me at the time :mefiant:
