Hi, Mega Man Hack speed runner here who is a proud member of the Mega Meow Militia. I'd like to counter some logic here.

#1-I think Buster Only (Tiny Toons) should be a default category because you are essentially doing either a Trevor Only run (C3) or an itemless challenge, and I think that not being able to skip the entire game using Furball and Plucky and forcing people to play the game neutral is something that should be offered at the start of the formation of the leaderboard. Along with any% and if there's a warp or skip then an all stages category is cool. There are a billion games with tons of pedantic overlapping categories (have you seen Metroid?), if the only thing holding it up is runners, well...

#2-There's already 3 runners with times, and this is an almost quarterly occuring marathon with more reach and people joining, so the odds of having more than 3-4 runners having a time for this category is going to be a certainty. Hell maybe I'll do it.

#3-This is a charity event based speed run, so trying to help that out and spread the reach of an event like this is something I feel people should want to be part of in the process of allowing it to grow, especially given that there are already 3+ runners who are active in the category, and there have been like 5+ week+long (9+ day) marathons with tons of people coming together as a community, I would think all of that combined would make this something that should happen.

Hi I had no idea there was this question.

My run is buster only so you use buster only except for I think the final fight you have to use the cherry weapon? idr. I'm about to replay the game but use weapons so I'm here to look at that, but the 2nd place time is buster only.
