the suigi problem

A phenomenon in the Super Mario 64 speedrunning scene in which the runner Suigi holds all major world records across the five core categories — 0-Star, 1-Star, 16-Star, 70-Star, and 120-Star — raising concerns about competitive stagnation and the sustainability of the game’s speedrun meta.

Speedrunning communities often rely on rivalry, specialization, and the ever-present possibility of an upset to remain vibrant. The Suigi Problem disrupts this balance. Suigi’s total dominance across every major category breaks from the long-standing tradition where different runners excel in different niches — some mastering the glitch-heavy short categories, others grinding the endurance-based long runs.

By conquering every category, Suigi not only redefined what individual mastery looks like, but also inadvertently diminished the competitive drive for others. With no world records left to chase, top runners face a choice: try to dethrone a near-flawless reign, or move on. As a result, the Suigi Problem has come to symbolize a paradox in speedrunning — where perfection, once achieved, may end the very competition that created it.
“This isn’t just a sweep — it’s the Suigi Problem. There’s nothing left to beat.”
“Unless GTM can do it, SM64 might need a whole new meta to survive the Suigi Problem.”

Brightman problem

A Brightman problem, which is intriguingly named after the robot master of the same name that appears in the classic video game "Mega Man 4," presents a fascinating paradox known as a "chain." This paradox operates on the principle that when one particular subject is mentioned, it inevitably leads to the mention of another distinct topic. However, this second topic is generally something entirely different, which, in turn, also refers to yet another subject. This process continues in a seemingly endless loop, with each new subject giving rise to another, thereby creating a complex network of interconnected ideas and themes. This cyclical nature of mention and reference exemplifies the curious and often bewildering relationships that can exist between different concepts within discourse.
The intriguing origin of what is known as the Brightman problem can be traced back to an engaging and entertaining YouTube video featuring an individual skillfully playing through the classic video game Mega Man 4. In this video, the player discusses one of the fascinating robot masters named "Brightman" and delves into a particular weapon associated with him, which is referred to as the "Flash Stopper." During the course of the discussion, it becomes evident that the functionality and concept behind Brightman's weapon bear a striking resemblance to that of another character’s weapon, specifically Flashman's. However, there is a crucial distinction to note: Flashman's weapon is actually labeled as the "Time Stopper." This leads to a thought-provoking question: Why is Brightman’s weapon associated with the term "Flash Stopper," and not categorized under Timeman's abilities? Upon closer examination, we find that Timeman’s unique ability is appropriately called "Time Slower," which underscores the differences in the naming conventions and functionalities of these various characters' powers within the game.

Billy: Yo, check this out, got the billy jeans!
Silly: Well, isn't it the billy jean song from Michael Jackson?
Billy: Well, billy, it revolves around the PERSON named billy jeans

IDtenT problem

Joke among I.T. types, vehicle and appliance mechanics, who will write out "ID ten T problem". When substituting the number "10" for the text "ten", the word resembles "Idiot".

The person diagnosing will say "ID ten T problem" with a smile on their face, but they are calling you an idiot.
The tech form read "IDtenT problem: Power strip circuit breaker needed resetting. PC then powered on normally."

Königsberg Bridge Problem

The Königsberg Bridge Problem is a historical puzzle asking if it's possible to walk through the city of Königsberg, crossing each of its seven bridges exactly once. Leonhard Euler proved it's impossible because there were more than two landmasses connected by an odd number of bridges, a key insight that laid the foundation for graph theory.
