Due to no one running 10 abilities (Everyone did All Abilities), I have removed category

It is added!

You could probably add Cruise Control since that does actually use time (I'd suggest video proof doesn't need to be required since there is a minimum time and it's really annoying to record)

I don't see the point of Sneaky Gamer when there's already a high score chart on cyberscore https://cyberscore.me.uk/chart/395094

Does collecting all of the collectibles involve completing all missions?

N3DS has slightly slower slower loads, these only seem to apply when there's a cut scene though, I imagine this to lose about 20 seconds throughout the run

Another big thing is lag. New 3DS seems to lag a lot more. A good example of this is in dream's Deep in Dreamy Pi'lloh Castle, or the Flames skip in Neo Bowser's Castle

Banned 1.0.0 in Any% and 100%. With the new updates out I think it is better if we all play on the latest versions, and on 1.0.0 the final boss has less health which would give an advantage to players to haven't updated their game / factory reset their switches.

Gonna tell you right now you're not gonna achieve your goal

I timed how much speed upgrades you. It seems that level 1 is def worth it but the others aren't so much (Especially Level 5)

Edit: I retimed it

Added

As an aside, all original characters have new stage layouts, and should save a minute for every character. If you have a time on the boards do another run and you should easily get a minute pb (I haven't tested if Wave 1 characters have new layouts)

Crafty Gamer's 100% run was done with an amiibo, something which is banned in the current rules. Because of the differences in routing for All Code Cubes and 100% (And maybe Any% if UFO is fast) we could add this as a sub category, instead of outright removing his run

With Wave 2 out I have done a run with Dark Meta Knight and beat my Marx time by over 2.5 minutes

So now is the question, should we separate Wave 2 into its own category or keep it with Wave 1 as a DLC category?

Both options have pros and cons but I'll list the 1 biggest reason for both options

Keep as DLC - The runs are both much shorter than Original, and with there being 1 more confirmed wave (And potentially 1 after that as well) It may end up looking cluttered if we have 5 categories for Guest Stars

Seperate into Waves - Despite similar lengths, there are still numerous differences, differences that can cause competition between all the waves. If we combined all into 1, all competition would be on a single character despite others having some differences. By keeping them separate all of the waves would have competition and people working to push multiple characters down.

I'm personally for Separating, as not only do I like having more competition, but if in the future we decide keeping them all in 1 category was a better idea after, it would be really easy to put all runs in the same board. But if we only have 1 category, and we decide to separate them out due to future waves having even more differences, We would end up with multiple waves having a lack of runs due to people going with the fastest, and trying to sort current runs would be annoying.

I ask you for your opinions (I'm not doing a poll). I ask that you only respond if you have a run submitted to Guest Stars (a run and not a casual playthrough that you submitted).

Most recent 3DS games have faster loads on New 3DS and I don't see why this would be an exception, so I think New 3DS should be added as a platform

I have a proposal, we could make a variable that tells you if the run reset the console or not, as I think it is important information if someone resets, but I agree banning may not be a good idea as competition would only be with 2 people (Shiro and I)

"Wii is more popular than Wii U" For Any% there are 15 runs on Wii and 15 on Wii U For 100% There are 6 runs on Wii and 6 runs on Wii U They're both even

So I think Making Wii U faster by 30 seconds would be more convenient than making Wii faster by 1.5 minutes

I think it is also more convenient if 1 version of the game is fastest, but this won't be a very seriously run category, so maybe it doesn't matter so much

Probably does, but Wii U doesn't have a reset button

I only added it after you asked
