Defrag World Cup 2021

Round 7 (2021-11-27 - 2021-12-4)

Best time in VQ3 physics is 44.536 by [fps]S aka Strangeland from Ukraine

I don't know if this is WR or not, but it's awesome!

First ever sub 1:25

I love the no cape category, I think the cape can be a bit overused because it's so good

SpeeDons is a much bigger speedrun event than you might think, despite being French only, their previous event in March raised €2,066,663 (about $2,152,964) for Médecins du Monde.

Niftski's WR - 4:54.565

RTA Rules TAS (no left+right) - 4:54.265, 18 frames away

any% TAS (left+right allowed) - 4:54.032, 32 frames away

Holding left+right at the same time is physically impossible on an NES controller and banned for all real time runs.

This video probably should've used the RTA Rules TAS to make it a more fair comparison but oh well, it's still cool to see

While GDQ is still going on, Niftski just broke the WR again!

I think the human limit is 4:54.265

'Quake done Quickest 2' (QdQst2) is a segmented run that completes Quake on Nightmare difficulty as fast as possible, disregarding kills and secrets on all maps. The run is a major overhaul of the Quake done Quickest run from 2011. The run time is 10:20, which is an improvement of 69 seconds. Each level was recorded in one segment - played over and over again for hours, days, weeks, even months - and then pieced together to create this run. The project was setup in early 2022 and segments were grinded over a span of 2 years by many different runners. With the insane level of execution and optimization of modern-day Quake speedrunning the next generation of runners managed to go even quicker than "Quickest".

It's been an awesome experience, and we're very happy to finally release QdQst2 exactly 13 years after the release of QdQst! Hope you enjoy!

IMPORTANT FLASHING WARNING FROM 4:17 TO 4:26

This run has a raw recording version here (no commentary): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ3HC2VCDIY

Finally a 45 in this category and a good one despite a few rough spots, no plans to improve further without some major strat changes or somehow stumbling across new tricks.
