 ====Dump 14 Emma Zip Glitch====
+**DONE! MOVED TO [[https://metalgearspeedrunners.com/wiki/doku.php?id=mgs2_emma_zip|MGS2 Emma Zip]] page.**
+<del>
 WIP as this is a very new glitch. Believed to save 7 seconds in Shell 2 Core 1F and 8 seconds on KL Connecting Bridge (Substance PC, Very Easy). Believed to be slower in Strut L. Console SoL/Sub/HD needs testing + timing (DOES NOT WORK ON XBOX SERIES X HDC). Consistent and safe setups needed. Eventual dedicated section on the wiki should this become standard part of the route. Name needed too.

+====Dump 19 Boss Survival Stuff====
+**DONE! MOVED TO [[https://metalgearspeedrunners.com/wiki/doku.php?id=metal_gear_solid_2:boss_survival#general_information | Boss Survival]] page.**
+Boss Survival needs its own dedicated page. Maybe something similar to Snake Tales.
+  - Load times and lag do not affect IGT.
+  - Menus are counted towards IGT.
+  - Final score screen time is always one or two frames less from what the player sees after final hit on Solidus.
+  - The optimal boss fight strats are NOT ALWAYS the same as full game optimal strats.
+Number of guards per diff (tested on Substance pc):
+  - Easy = 4 + 3
+  - Normal = 5 + 3
+  - Hard = 8 + 3
+  - Extreme = 8 + 3
+Number of tengus per diff (tested on substance pc):
+  - Easy = 20
+  - Normal = 22
+  - Hard = 25
+  - Extreme = 25
+Difficulties somewhat follow the japanese SoL naming convention:
+  - "Easy" = Very Easy from most versions.
+  - "Normal" = Easy from most versions.
+  - "Hard" = Hard from most versions.
+Extreme can be accessed via the dev menu (check the resources page for a link to it). It follows Extreme from most versions. \\
+Bosses include: Olga, Fatman, Harrier, Vamp 1, Rays, Solidus \\
+NOTE: Substance added Guard Rush + Tengu 1 \\
+Region/Version Differences:
+  - HD Edition will have a slower Tengu or Guard Rush fight if you use stun grenades (since grenades take longer to blow up).
+  - Sons of Liberty (NTSC-J) has a slightly faster Solidus since you can hit the walls with the blade, cancelling the animation halfway through.
+  - PAL50 should (didnt check lol) run at a lower framerate, therefore should be slower.
+Other Notes:
+  - Guard Rush and Tengu 1 NOT added for Substance Xbox NTSC-U. That version and region has SoL boss fights.
+  - Tengu 1 cannot be skipped using door glitch. There is no loadzone on the other side of the door. However, Coolant/Choke/Stun skips work
+  - Coolant/Choke/Stun skips for Tengu 1 might be slower depending on difficulty, but choke skip could be safer for higher diffs especially with Snake.
+====Dump 20 Something to do with Nikita dont know where to put this===
+When the Nikita missile's timer runs out and it blows up, you gain control of the player a few moments before the camera shifts back to Snake/Raiden.
