Information about timing runs: Don’t know if anyone is going to read this but just wanted to put this here in case people want to know how to time their runs. I am currently in the process of re-timing every run on the leaderboards with these methods, which takes a really long time. I will edit this when I finish each leaderboard (see bottom of post) Basics of re-timing runs: with this website: https://slashinfty.github.io/yt-frame-timer/ you can re-time the exact time the run takes. It's explained how on the site itself. Timing tutorial runs. The starting frame for tutorial runs is when the checkmark at the start has been released (so after it changes color). Images to understand better: https://imgur.com/a/MVRHXqT Second image is the starting frame. (In rare cases it’s the first image, but this only happens when the run was done on a mobile device) If you can’t see when the checkmark has been released, use the first frame where the starting board moves as the starting frame. The ending frame for tutorial runs is the same as for point runs, it’s the first frame of the gnome’s transformation to a statue. Again, images to understand better: https://imgur.com/a/GIwo05W The second image is the ending frame Timing point runs (200, 500 and 750). The starting frame of point runs is when the gnome leaves the catapult. Images for better understanding:

Second image is starting frame The ending frame of point runs is the same as tutorial runs, but you can also tell by the restart button moving, so its even easier to tell which frame it is. Images for better understanding:

And the second image is (again) the ending frame. Note that all runs will be re-timed this way in the future. NOTE: I might just delete any% runs since they’re kinda pointless and hard to re-time. Re-time progress: Tutorial: Finished 200:

Hi, I was wondering how the #1 run of obtain diamond was able to spawn on the second island in his run. Also, should this be allowed?

in the 750 point category, these are the rules:

'Earn 750 points with this gnome. Timer starts after gnome starts to fly and ends after his transformation into a statue. Everything is allowed, but not cheating.'

every speedrun in this category follows these rules, exept the world record. It says its 'retimed', but the time thats on the leaderboards is counted from when he hits 750 and not when he turns into a statue (Like it clearly says in the rules and everyone else has done). just look at this video in which the 'world record' is set: the guy even has the right time in the title.

me and my friend want to do a kirby speedrun but we don't know if 2 player is allowed. can somebody tell us.

I don't want to watch the whole run to see what he did different over the other runners, so can somebody tell me why his record is 11 seconds faster than the previous record
