Is this your first time running R1, Eric?

[EricZen]

Is this your first time running R1, Eric?

By far not. That would be a crazy run for the first time. Basically started running and playing the game for the first time during the DSI Challenge from Thex. So about 3 months ago.

[Greengoop]

And how well did you do in that one?

[EricZen]

And how well did you do in that one?

I would say i did pretty well. Got 3rd place in the beginner group. Was a close race between me and Torsinn but he sadly beat my time on the last day. I think my final time was a 1:36:xx or so.

[Greengoop]

Cool! How much money did you earn?

[EricZen]

I won 30€. Really cool.

[Greengoop]

Lucky guy. Did you spend it well?

[Hunchman801]

Well, it's almost one copy of Rayman: The Board Game.

[Greengoop]

Or you could spend it on a single Burger King in Switzerland

[EricZen]

Was spend well for the meetup in the Netherlands with friends for BSG. Offcourse it was just some part of the money.

[Greengoop]

Good to hear, I’d definitely earmark it for something special

Woah, Eric’s beginning to speedrun everything

One speedrunner to rule them all.

[EricZen]

My plan is actually to speedrun every main Rayman Game and its only Legends left. My Origins PB is still trash though.

[EdgyRabbid]

How does one figure out the best route to speed run a game!? Especially Rayman 1??
