Haven't had that much time, but got in a few runs and improvements.

2-16x P.S.Y 5.03
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pn5OtKWdsts

1-11x Doused 2.19
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6abRJ3jb0EU

4-5x Wicked One 3.87
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ci6c1LNwh4
This one surprised me.  Managed to squeeze out a third dash with a better landing position, which totally wrecks my previous time.

5-6 Left Behind 4.19

This was kind of just a micro improvement and not that interesting.

As for re-factoring the OP, it looks like there is another thread now which is a better catchall for being a time/video repository, which is good because I'm actually super lazy.

Hospital is starting to become kind of comfy :)

2-19 Six Feet 3.85
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysoCmMo_Ml0

2-20 Day Breaker 5.07
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgF2G1chrKY
This one had a weird wall climb.

2-8 The Sabbath 6.88
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYnErE5Qwgg
Fastest time on this one was a 6.86, but this is one of those levels that you have to wait for an obstacle to move out of the way, which is annoying.

I heard I should post this one here.

4-3 Hech Hole 5.05
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1glJbVVQGc

Have 6.02 for 4-3x too but haven't uploaded it. Trying to get under 6 seconds tomorrow, now I'm off to bed.

I guess I'll also post my second one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AFiy5Fpj-Y

Contains 5-1X, 5-2X, 5-3X (Runman), 5-6, 5-6X, 5-7, 5-7X, 5-11X, 5-12X, 5-13, 5-13X, 5-16X and 5-17 (Runman). I thought I'd make a third compilation with all the random stages I've done in chapters 1-3 and the heavily improved Hell runs, and then my own topic with all the single stages indexed, but I'm not sure when I'll actually get around to do it so might as well just leave this one here.

Oh btw, I beat you on 1-12 too a couple of days back. I was just looking at your post history and noticed that level there. Also, I did it with Naija, so this is almost on-topic!

You might want to re-check the leaderboard on that level. 
But those were some amazing runs. Props to you man!  Meat Boy

Oh well, I probably won't really beat it, it takes ages for me to get a decent run on that level
I'd love to have more top time friends on Steam though! Add me if you want: DinosaurRodeo :)

Your time is actually one of those I was referring to with "unknown names having slightly better and possibly legit [times]", I don't remember seeing you on a lot of levels and it was pretty suspicious to have sleepy, emma and tunnel within 0.02s and some other dude beating them by 0.24s. Oh well, credited you in the video description.

Failing to get the record on that level out of all things is actually quite disappointing as I think I should be able to do a jump on top of the hill, based on two guys on IRC report they were doing it, while I kept dying unless I artificially killed my fps. Which I of course wouldn't do on any serious attempts. Not jumping means you'd have to either do a full stop before falling or do that zip back to the wall, and I'm pretty sure a light jump into the walljump would be faster. I'm a bit doubtful about improving the time with the strategy I'm currently using, as I got that time after a day of grinding with a shitload of 7.51-7.55 times before it. A record with a different char on a different path would have been so much cooler than the usual case of small improvements here and there.

Very nice.

Its surprising that your 5-12x is faster despite not superdashing at the start, which is a ton faster than normal jumping into a turnaround.  Looks like its a cleaner landing on the key platform and that extra dash in the middle (which I always thought would be slower).
I like your 5-6 route improvement, subtle :).

My current Hell times are abysmal, aside from 4-5x and 4-18x.  I'm either going to focus there, or start looking at Rapture, which I've barely even touched at all in terms of speedrunning.

Edit:
Updated OP with videos in the thread.

Created a new compilation video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95kVv0Ob6Dk

Not really anything new in there, but grouping a bunch of the previous individual level runs so I could have a compilation video that wasn't completely embarrassing like the Hell ones are now.

3-16 would have beaten AlwaysSleepyGuy's 1st place time, but I flubbed that last dash and slowed down a lot.

I have no idea how the 1st place on Boomtown is 2.90 seconds, unless its possible to land right in the lower corridor and superdash up without hitting the edge before bandage girl, or manage a turnaround that goes through the corridor to the other side and dash to bandage girl, again clearing the edge cleanly.

Since it looks like this is "new video day", I guess I'll have to make a contribution too:

Not all of these are especially interesting, but there are some gems in there.

Have anyone really tried to get a good time on 4-3 or 4-3x? I'm starting to feel those are too easy or simple so that people don't bother with them much. Why? I played 4-3x three minutes and got best time by far. It shouldn't be that easy, especially since I don't have that great times elsewhere.

There still a good .1 or .2 seconds at least (if not more) that could be knocked off using this exact route.  More if you can get multiple superdashes in the middle climb (I get none).

4-3x could be improved using the same change to the start.  However, its pretty hard to replicate what you did and have the dash that takes you out of the middle column take you all the way to the upper corner, which is where I keep losing time.  Props to that.

Its also possible to go up the left side of the middle.  With good positioning and a superdash, you can fly right between the saw and the lava, which means it should be possible to get nearly the same time as on 4-3, except for the normal wall jump you need to get under the saw at the top.

Also, I'm going to stop writing stuff like "fastest time" in video descriptions since like as not, they're only going to stand for at most a week and going back and editing video descriptions is a pain.

I learned that on my first video compilation as about half my times got improved pretty much immediately. On the second one I just prefaced everything with "at the time of submission" and called it a day.

Zed, you are wasting way too much time switching characters to get only 1 guy on your replay or to keep your death count low.
