Brutwarst reaches #3 in Low% + about 25 new runs O_O Also some hype dailies =D
Posted by Kinnijup on June 21st, 2016 @12:07AM
Biggest news for this update was Brutwarst's 2:40.419 Low% run. It was "only" a .099 improvement, but it was a significant one. It managed to push Brut ahead of Pibonacci by .001 in Low%! You can view Pib's killer run here. Brut now holds the 3rd place position in Low%, and it is well-deserved. Good luck pushing for WR, homie 
Many other great runs were done too, so let's hop into it.
Grooomp got the plasma cannon to the City of Gold on a score run!!! I knew he was reaching 3 million potential a couple months ago with some of his progress on dailies, so it was awesome to see him get a $2mil+ PB. He nailed a $2.329mil run! Something else particularly impressive about this run was he did it with no kapala until 5-2! Great job, Grooomp, and good luck on the next one.
ix was very busy with Spelunky the last few days! He got a big improvement to his Low% time, which beat his Any% time by 90 seconds! He hit a 4:15. He also did a 26:15 Max Hell run that also counted for Max Any%. Trying his hand at no gold, he hit a 13:16. He also worked on All Shortcuts + Olmec. For this, he submitted a 35:55 with a 32:56 Key delivery split. Lastly, he improved his daily highscore PB to $1.372mil! Great work, ix!
Next up, we have someone who has been chatting with us all on Twitch for quite a while, and has recently started streaming himself (www.twitch.tv/myusernamecanbeover25). He is usernamecantbe25 and he already has a high skill level. He even made it to 5-2 on a Low% Hell run so far!! For this update, he submitted a 4:09 Any% which was also Max Any%! Nice to have you, 25!
AlphaChannel worked on Low% No Gold and managed a 6:58! This also counts for his No Gold PB. Alpha has also recently started working on Low% Hell. It is definitely within his skill level so I am really excited to see what he manages! Good luck, Alpha.
HiDefLoMein finished his first Low% run! He did it in style, too, nailing speedlunky! His final time was 7:36. Particularly exciting is the olmec fight! He also completed a 39:41 All Shortcuts + Olmec run! HiDef is now running some AJE so we will likely see something from him there soon, as well.
Next, we have a new face to Mossranking. shru submitted an $872k daily that also counts for his highscore PB! You can see the leaderboards for this daily here. Nice to have you, shru 
BTA88 has started trying his hand at speedruns, and he's already hitting some skillful times. So far, he managed a 44:48 All Shortcuts + Olmec run, and a 5:25 Any% run! BTA has continued to do dailies consistently, so I think we will see some improvements to his daily average when the seed is good, as well. Good luck, BTA.
CamoNinjazz did a cool 9:04 Draining Olmec% run, and a 5:32 Any% run. Nice to see you trying some of the interesting runs that are not often done, Camo! Good luck in the next run you try 
Peglah submitted a 5:19 Any% run that was an aborted hell run. Looking at some of the nice plays on the run, it is clear he can do a much faster one if he doesn't focus on hell. Either way, looking good already, Peg!
Next up we have some solid dailies to go over. Golem managed a 1.99mil daily on the June 18th daily, the leaderboard for which you can view here. Bum nailed a $2.2mil run on it! Also, I (Kinnijup) managed a $3.02mil daily on the June 19 daily. A big daily also happened on June 21st, and Krille71 got $3.16mil on it!! A big thing that happened with this daily for Krille, is he passed me for 2nd place in daily average! He now has $2.997mil daily average, just over 1k ahead of me and only one daily PB away from that 3m. Great job, Krille!
Linkruler submitted a very well-done 6:37 Max Hell run that actually beats Bum! With a teleporter, a much faster time is possible (due in particular to the worm level being much faster with it) but this time is already great and ranked 6th! Link has been trying good score runs when they come up too and managed a 548k mines. Link has always had the potential for a $3 million run but the game has been very unkind to him on the seeds it does end up giving him. If you don't focus on score runs, Link, that's okay too. The important part is to enjoy yourself 
Last but not least, bootsthatshoot shook off a week's worth of rust and nailed a Low% PB already!! He hit a 3:15. The run was very well done, and he managed to handle a few troll situations in the temple without losing additional time. His run also had a completely solid 4 bomb Olmec fight! Great job boots, always looking forward to hearing from you 
That's all for now,
-Kinni
