└ posted on Wednesday, 21 March 2018, by Novil
As written in the comic itself, please feel encouraged to create a speedrun of (parts of) Sandra and Woo of your own. You can send your creation to novil@gmx.de. I will reward the most creative submissions with Bronze/Silver/Gold/Diamond accounts.
- Seeoahtlahmakaskay: You shall be blessed for this delicious offering.
- Larisa: Sandy, may I ask you a question? Woman to woman?
- Sandra: Sure. Go ahead!
- Cloud: There’s also one of those “escape rooms” in our town now. But it’s brand new and there aren’t any reviews for it yet.
- Larisa: Sexy …
Wait so is this basically just a compilation of a bunch of different scenes crafted together artistically?
Shoutouts to simpleflips!
Um… Not entirely intrigued, but okay…
Ummm… is that Sly Cooper’s cane? It is, isn’t it. I’m kinda suprised it took this long to reference to be honest.
I’d think a faster route would be to item glitch the s͏̮̖e͏̬̮͡e͏̯̼͕̻͔̠͎o̺̯a̟̬̙h͎͉̝̝̦̠͍͢ͅt̛̝͉͜͟l̴̝̰͉̯̺̗͟a̧̛͚̠͡h̷̡̥̙͚͇͓̘͚m̳̲̟̖̰̤̯̕a̡͏̮̥̥͕̦͙k̷̡̝͉͓̥͉a͈͖̯̤͍̠s͎͙͖͕͕̙̬͘͟k̯̱̞̥͖̼̠͠͝à̵̡͕̬̜̬̼͉y̢̝̱͍͇͢ panel, if you’re frame perfect it works and you jump straight to the f̳̺͚̙̜͘i̶̝̥͎n͏͇͈̀a͈͉͍͉̮l̼͙̘̗ ̶̗̠͕͙͉̝̣͘͠ͅb̨͡͏͖͕͎o̥̘s͍͇̻̙͖̤̮͞s̫̫̖͍ ̴͔̦͡l̢͙ơ̛͚̝͙̻̺̰̲ͅa҉̞d̝̺̮͞͝í̸̞̯̳̫͠n̢̬̙̥͟͜g̷͈͓͖̘̀ ͖̲͉͘͡͡s̮͍͔c̛̘̭r̪͎̥̰̺̝̳͞e͇̥̞̮̬̥̘̕e̸̥̝̖͇̺̙̳̝͜ǹ̢̹̜̲̼.
Or so I’ve heard.
Seriously I don’t get this.
Woo Cooper.
@ Thelinkmaster001:
In fact it was referenced in the very first strip of the comic.
…Speedrun? I thought it was some kind of joke about glitchy video games. Sly Cooper specifically, for some reason.
Would “Sandra and Woo” abridged be “SaWooA”?
Wheres that last panel from tho
He’s forgetting that Sandra and Woo updates twice a week. Come Monday, those bugs will be fixed and this particular speedrun will no longer be possible.
(What can I do if I have a few ideas but have almost zero experience with Photoshop?)
Tzeentch approves.
That was AMAZING! I was so confused until I read the final line, at which point I burst out laughing!! Brilliant joke!
@ Eike:
That looks like Sandra and Cloud getting married. It’s never been shown in the comic, but at this rate it’s basically inevitable.
Given the timescale of the strip, we will probably reach that point around 13-15 years from now. My reaction to which is, this speedrun is basically equivalent to completing XCOM: Long War 2 in six minutes.
Also, are we allowed to do speedruns of Gaia?
@ SIL:
I may be able to help you out… I have the opposite, Photoshop skill and no ideas. xD
@ Nix:
This is a reference to speed-running in gaming. If you haven’t heard of it, there are whole communities built around finishing a given game as fast as possible.
Now, old games (think 20+ years old) took programming shortcuts in order to fit as much data as possible within the tiny limits of the storage media of the time.Many speedruns for those games include abusing those shortcuts by doing a very specific set of actions that cause “glitches” to the point that the game crashes and resolves the crash by sending you to the ending screen, and voila, you have “finished” the game in minutes as opposed to hours.
@ João Ferreira:
That would be fine. Although we should probably be discussing it through email or something.
I can only imagine the utter confusion this strip must evoke in those that don’t know how speed-running works. I know and I was confused enough as it is, at first.
Honestly, it is stuff like this that keeps me reading, just when I’m wondering if I really need to be reading S&W brilliant strips like this come along.
@ Korakys:
It reminds me of the Ocarina Of Time runs where they’ve gotten the world record any% down to 17 minutes due to an amazing amount of glitch abuse.
One of your adverts is aggressively redirecting to a phishing site…
A faster strat would be the 2 panel route, in which you manipulate pixels in order to force a crash in order to get to the end immediately. This takes extreme precision to do and is not believed to be RTA viable, however it has been proven possible via TAS.

The proper litany is:

*FEET STOMP*
I bet Werster could crush this any%.
@ Vercalos:
Novil has very little control over what ads are displayed. If you want to stop them, the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox will block those redirects.

Here is my contact email. It might take me a bit to respond at the moment.
So this strip is use for timeskip several years in the future ?? Next strip onwards Sandra is adult and already married to Cloud ?
@ PS2kid:
1.) Full run of S&W. Including the future.
2.) Probably Better+ Ending.
@ Formedras:
3.) Number 2 is a joke.
Oi! KosmicD12 currently holds all of the Super Mario Bros records!

@ Unknown User has Joined your Channel:
I think the better phrasing would be “World domination is 90% public speaking and 10% murder/manipulation.”
Oops wrong tab, disregard. I suggest a delete feature for comments.
@ SIL:
Some of the glitches are pretty newly discovered, so they might take a few updates before they’re patched, but the popular “Panel Clip” will probably be patched out right away.
Just in the first panel, Woo is drawn like how he was drawn during the early life of this webcomic. It’s the small details like this which delight me.
This comic has become really weird lately…
I don’t get whether this is this week’s comic or a fan submission? Could somebody kindly explain?
(Sorry for being stoopid)
(a) Funny how the comic choose to name a speedrunner and randomly stumbled upon pretty much the only one I know by name.
(b) I’m holding out for the glitchless category, myself. 🙂

Yeah, to quote Sgt. Hulka, “I’m getting too old for this $#!+”, or at least too underexposed. I think I’m aging out of the target audience.
Cloudskip was a real game changer. Who would’ve thought that you could skip all of Cloud’s interactions by playing Woo as if he was an ocarina? I swear, how do people even discover these glitches?
On the sixth panel something is written using the Book of Woo font. Can anybody guess what could this text be like? It would give quite a clue in attempts of decrypting the Book of Woo.

If it’s not just random characters for the sake of decoration, it’s possible this is the correct translation for the world “lingerie” as seen on the original page. Not sure of the process yet but it should be useful if correct.
At first I was confused, then I read through the comments and read the one person who commented on speed running takes advantages of glitches (which was something I didn’t know about speed running) and then it made some level of sense. Unlike others, though, I’m not seeing the “funny” bits and am just like “meh” for this strip. :/ Sorry.
@ Hunter X:

“Lingerie” encoded as three words? It would suggest a syllabic system.
Or these are coordinates of a word “lingerie” in a strip number 0886. 16 different woo-script letters suggest hexadecimal numbers used in the coordinates.
One second. Did he just glitch Cloud inside Sandra in panel 6, leading straight to the marriage ending through the Woo censored panel 7? I mean, remove the Woo pattern from panel 7 and you get a somewhat suggestive pictogram, don’t you?
Doki Doki literature club flashbacks, anyone else?
I love how ya can reprogram Super Mario World using glitches speed runners found hahaha
@ktośtam
For me this looks like a big hint for the Book of Woo. The words transcribe to “pya jald daxd” in Foogod’s transliteration or “ton anre ense” in the nneonneo Transliteration (which I find more useful). Take a look here, if you haven’t already: http://bookofwoo.globetagging.com/Transliterations
All three “words” have been used in the Book of Woo but not in that combination, ruling out a simple citation, reference or nod to the Book of Woo in the context of this speedrun.
The occurences in the Book of Woo are:
ton: 1x
anre: 3x
ense: 4x + 5x “nense”
I think we need a step by step walktrough of this glitchy run.

I like watching speedruns but this seems crazy. Oh! Are you talking about TAS? I know they exploit glitches immensely. Tracking down and reverse engineering bugs must be a science for them.
Or maybe glitched Ocarina of Time runs. Those are glitch-heavy in fun ways.
