Just thought I'd give a quick disclaimer that the youtube video isn't mine... unfortuantely. 

Hey, thanks for checkin' out the video I posted here. 

I was trying to do the same thing the other day and I couldn't get it either. I know there IS a possible shortcut on the Expert Remix version of the level (Speck) that was released on Teh Internets and SMW, as this video shows: (6-2 remix level starts at the 5:00 mark)

Not sure if maybe that was the shortcut Edmund was referring to, but yeah... I've never been able to find any shortcuts for 6-2. 

Mine is a picture of me staring down King Koopa, symbolizing the timeless struggle between man and game. 

(... which reminds me, I need to do an updated riff on that using SMB  )

Man, that is awesome, I'm jelly. But more importantly, how did you get that split screen to work?

Basically, one person (in this case Retro_inferno) "hosts" the race by opening tabs of each individual racer's channel at Justin.tv in their browser, then, using a program called Xsplit (a great free solution for live broadcasting of games) the host can capture each racer's video feed and then compile them all into one "shot" that then can be broadcast to the host's Justin.tv channel. That is the overly simplified explanation of how it's done. 

Glad ya liked the vid. 

Oh god yes, I can't speak for everyone on that call, but I know I was definitely nervous! It's not every day that you get the random opportunity to having a meaningful dialogue with 2 of the greatest game developers working today. 

Hey guys,

I've been lurking in these forums for quite a while, but never felt inclined to post, as all of my questions, concerns, etc. had already been asked/answered elsewhere.  Yet, after what happened last night, I figured it was time I "stepped out into the light," so to speak, to share this with the SMB community.

Basically some friends and I were putting on a Super Meat Boy Race over at Justin.tv (great site for live game casts) and not only did both Edmund & Tommy drop in on our Skype call, but Danny Baranowsky was also in the chat giving away codes for the SMB soundtrack! Needless to say... IT WAS FUCKING AWESOME!

Here's the link to the video of the live event (Edmund joins the call around the 27:00 mark, and Tommy joins later): http://www.justin.tv/retrorockstars/b/285830020

Besides Edmund & Tommy being on the Skype call, whom I'm sure you'll recognize right away, there was also myself (I'm the guy who can't stop fawning and complimenting the shit out of Team Meat  ), Chatia12 (the race was her idea), and Retro_Inferno (he hosted the event).

Anyway, hope you enjoy the vid!
