The end of the last voice clip was based the Season 4 episode 'So It's Come To This: A Simpson's Clip Show', in which while Grampa is in the middle of saying that he goes in and out of comas all the time, when, just like in the above clip, he abruptly falls asleep and wakes up saying, 'French toast please.'

Seeing as a few people were discussing about running NG+ recently (mainly for the 'All Story Missions' category) I decided to write a thread about it and upload a save we can all use that is optimised for NG+, so we all have a level playing field. Most of the ideas for this came from some of us runners talking in Cookie's chat the other day; if you have any other inputs or suggestions, feel free to reply to this thread!
The save we decided to use can have anything unlocked, so I just chose to use a 100% save. This means all cars/costumes and all FMVs have been watched, which means they are skippable without needing to pause-buffer or anything. Of course naturally, we cannot do the tutorial mission, so that isn't part of a NG+ run.
The idea of this save is to have everything all set up to make the run as fast as possible; here is a small list of things I did:
> 100% (all cars/clothes/FMVs).
> Saved on L1M1.
> Correct clothes already selected on levels that need them. (For Marge: Inmate)
> All cars from phone booths have 0% damage.
> Level 1 Homer is wearing the Muumuu (by request of runners).

In regards to where to start the timer: I think we should start it when you hit 'resume game' from the menu after you have loaded said save. It's either that, or start it when you load the save originally.
I'm not sure if I forgot about anything; knowing me I probably did. If there's anything else you can think about that could be default in the save that would make a run quicker, please do tell me.
