I like Big Butts and I can not lie

you realise you can't morph in mid-air

1. OMG fun with BBcode!
2. Same way as in Super Metroid, eh?
* looks for run button in M1 *
* can't find it *
* tries to morph in mid-air *
* can't do it *
3. Now, you can UNMORPH in midair in M1, which is actually quite useful in several places.
4. Even if you could mockball in Metroid 1, I can't see how it would be useful. Mockball in SM doesn't grant extra speed, it just lets you keep your current running speed while rolling. So, I don't see where a M1 mockball would even be useful from the standpoint of saving a few seconds here and there in a speed run.
5. Maybe if you were a bit more descriptive of what you're talking about, or made a short video clip to post, we'd be able to know a little better what you're talking about. Wink

...Sounds like he is referring to the early Super vid on the main site( Go through a door and morph...well, sort of).
@Kanden: The problem is that a mockball is just a technique in Super Metroid which lets you keep your current running speed while rolling (as MonsterERB mentioned in the last post) and not the "going through a door and morph"-thing. You would just go into morph ball if you do that. And you know what is really COOL?? You don't have to go through a door to do this! [I want credit for this discovery!]

He's almost certainly referring to the policy regarding use of abbreviated 'net-speak such as 'u' instead of 'you'.

Nah, not really. Certainly nate can make lack of capitalisation look good, but I don't think anyone else can. If you want to be respected here, you need to have good writing presentation.
