New World Record!
AntiElitz - 4hr22m17s - https://www.twitch.tv/antielitz
Another truly phenomonal effort in this category again by AntiElitz taking nearly 4 mins off his own previous World Record!
This category is surprisingly active with multiple players trying to compete for a fast time, most notably are thedoh, chasing down a podium spot and DerekMacIntyre who has been consistently improving almost daily this month, to the point he was within 3mins of AntiElitz up until this new record was achieved!
I'm very certain this is won't be the last World Record we see here this year!

Month In Review
February is complete and the categories are finalized for this month!
Well here we are, with what I hope you'll consider, an upgrade to the usual speedrun post!
For a while now I've wanted to make this more interactive and have the option to click links and watch World Records right next to the information.
This site will let me do exactly that, and for those that prefer, the static image is still available on Reddit and Discord as usual.
If this proves popular enough then at somepoint I may move over to a proper host with proper HTML/CSS but for now this will let me test and update things a little easier!
🥰Thanks to all the testers who helped me tweak this new interactive newsletter in Discord 🥰
♥️ Thank you to all who have supported me this month, whether that be via Twitch/Youtube or completing the sponsored tasks! ♥️
If you enjoy this monthly recap and have any ideas or feedback, please leave a comment below or hop into my discord where supporters also get early access to the review every month!
