I have a few questions to make sure I correctly understand the rules for full-game mode runs.

1. In all the categories, there is a rule "Timing goes by In Game Time (IGT) which includes failed attempts" Does this mean that to get the time for the run, I need to sum all of the times of all attempts (including the successful attempt) for any levels played?
2. Is the only difference between "All Areas" and "228 Stars" in the area 6 boss, which is to say, "All Areas" simply needs to clear that boss, but "228 Stars" needs to earn 6 stars on that boss?
3. In the "All Levels Normal/Hard" category, does this designation represent two similar rulesets for two different runs, one being "all levels except 6-15 on normal" and "all levels except 6-15 on hard", or does this designation represent "all levels except 6-15, where each is done on normal or hard difficulty, may choose different difficulties for different levels"?

Thank you for your work in maintaining these leaderboards.

1. Yes, for all the completed levels and failed attempts you take the IGT and sum it up

2. Yes, All Areas You must defeat the boss, and 228 Stars is Finishing every level with the maximum amount of stars, including the 6th Area Boss

3.You may interchangeably change difficulties, it is labled "Normal/Hard" just to divide it so it doesn't get confused with Categories such as All Areas, as All levels Normal/Hard doesn't need a star benchmark

Thank you! If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask.

I have a question too: In the rules for any% it says "Must get minimum amount of stars in Adventure mode to finish 6-14" - does this mean that the only stage in area 6 that's required for any% is 6-14?

Yes, pretty much

Cool, thanks for the quick answer :)

Anytime
