Boulder Glitch
To Espyo's edit - if it "serves a use," as you say, wouldn't it warrant a move to another section? After all, if it's potentially useful, it's no longer cosmetic; but perhaps such is the case with such a puny use; I didn't get to look through the other cosmetic glitch to see if something similar has happened. -Los Plagas
- Ah, I knew in my mind that I had more to do than just set the danger to "Helpful", but I eventually forgot. Yes, it's no longer cosmetic, and the truth is that it's purely cosmetic for just about every normal player, but not so for split-segment and tool-assisted speedruns. Normally, unless the runner trained the timing and positioning really well, and is lucky with the boulder's placement, it's better to take the gate down normally, because of how hard it is to do the glitch. But in split-segment runs and tool-assisted speedruns, pulling the trick off would be more trivial. So yeah, out of the cosmetic section it goes. — {EspyoT} 07:07, 19 November 2013 (EST)
Split
This page and the Pikmin glitches page load slowly for me on this laptop. This isn't the laptop I normally use, it's weaker, but it's really noticeable. Everything lags, and the page takes a good 30 seconds to be done loading. Some viewers won't have much of a problem, but others, specially on mobile devices and the like will hate navigating through this interesting list. We have to do something to fix this. We can either split each section into its own subpage, or find another way to show the videos, because I think the main cause of the slowdown comes from all the video metadata requests the page does. — {EspyoT} 07:19, 19 November 2013 (EST)
- Perhaps a slight difference from the first idea - split all the videos off into a sub-page, and just supply a link to each glitch's video on that page on their section. -Los Plagas
- Yes, we used to have links to the videos, instead of having them embedded, but it's less convenient to click on a link... Also I think either of the two solutions would suffice, no need to combine them. Isn't there a way to only get video information after, say, clicking on a link? We could still have the video on the page, and the user could watch it without leaving or opening a new tab, but it wouldn't load at page load, so less slowdown. — {EspyoT} 20:20, 19 November 2013 (EST)
