Puncayshun breaks 120 star WR in Super Mario 64 1:43:42

Twitch speedrunner Puncayshun has recently broken Siglemic's short-lived 1:43:54 120 WR that was set last month, ending Siglemic's two-year reign as the 120 star WR holder for Super Mario 64.


The run came after several practice runs that Punc himself was upset with, and even features him dying in Tick Tock Clock.

Sig's response, via Twitter:


Puncayshun achieved a 1:44:05 as early as four weeks ago, so this PB/WR is an improvement of his old time by approximately 23 seconds.

Can't access SpeedRunsLive? Use All Speedruns Tracker


Created by /r/speedrun reddit user pksage, All Speedruns Tracker can be considered a minimalist alternative to the main hub of SpeedRunsLive. It includes direct links to active, live streams of Twitch users and can be sorted by game, by streamer, and by viewers as seen from the above screenshot. It is currently in its alpha stage.

Icebound777 Creates Massive Speedrun Leaderboard Spreadsheet

Icebound777 has decided to do the speedrunning community a favor and has recently been the creator of a single Google Docs document that currently houses over 400+ different WRs spanning over 100 different games that have been speedran in the past.

If you can think of a game but don't know the leaderboards or the current WR of the game then Icebound777's speadsheet probably has what you are looking for.

Icebound777 also has indicated that the spreadsheet is far from complete and if you have new inofrmation not present on the spreadsheet then by all means has encouraged people to submit their times.
