Is it allowed to start a Yoshi IL with a cap? I feel like that shouldn't be allowed because then it would just be a repeat of other categories for that level but with a second or two added on. It'd be hard to change that now though

Really Tall confirmed that if Yoshi enters a level with a cap, typically Mario's, it is still a Yoshi time. I feel the same way but that's how it is. Also ParadoxKarl if you read this, I've left a request in the comments on a video of yours.

Yeah I guess it's debatable whether it should be allowed. Either choosing a cap at the start is allowed for a Yoshi run or just banned completely.I saw there were a couple of runs that had already done it when I started doing ILs (such as http://www.speedrun.com/run/zq632v8y) so I did it myself, and I do believe it should be allowed, as it means some cool strategies are viable such as this one: . It also means that for stage 100% runs as Yoshi you can choose a different character for each star, rather than likely sticking as Yoshi as caps would be too far out of the way to get, which I think is more interesting.

If either of you do feel really strongly about it we could have a vote in the Discord server I guess, but it would mean removing a good few times if we decided it wasn't allowed.
