Apologies for the confusion, NG+ is fully intended to be played on free play. I have changed the rules from being vague about the mode to be played on to specifically state that the category is reserved for free play, on both Co-op and single player.

Follow up: I realize that prnced did a run of the same category on single player, but only went through story mode, meaning we should make a distinction between NG+ free play and NG+ story mode.

It should apply to all the Lego TT games, as they all have the potential for the same categories (Minus the Super Stories of SW:TCS)

Update: Categories have been made and edited to specifically entail whether one uses free play mode or story mode during a speedrun. No runners' times nor category placements were compromised in the process.

@zulice Both LSWI and LSW:TCS have the same vague rulesets that do not distinguish which mode is to be played on. As you can see on the NG+ single player page on LSW:TCS (http://www.speedrun.com/lswtcs#Any_NG%2B1) I have a run submitted (albeit I cannot view it at the moment, technical difficulties) that I am very sure used free play mode throughout the entire run. However, you are correct that almost all other runs have used story mode. I'll delete my record to help avoid future confusion.
