Any% if you are looking for a pretty chill and easy category that is a bit longer and has a a lot of exotic tricks to learn. Free play for a more difficult fast paced category with a lot of hard clips and tricks with no downtime in the run, but much shorter. I wouldn't recommend any other categories till you learn either of those.

Requesting https://www.speedrun.com/lswtcsce to be added to the series https://www.speedrun.com/lego . Here is my permission from the series mod https://imgur.com/a/15vF6DF . Also requesting for the base game to be set as https://www.speedrun.com/lswtcs .
This may not be a bug, but if you have more than 1 PB submitted for a category that allows for multiple submissions without making the slower one obsolete and someone else submits a run beats the slower but but DOESNT beat the FASTER one, you will get a notification saying that the faster one was beaten when it should say the slower one is beaten. https://imgur.com/a/eD87aQY . The time they beat was a 1:30:54 which is my second place time (which i did with different people). Very small and not really relevant bug but figured ill put it here.

Additional categories to speedrun are available on this page including Super Stories.
Unfortunately its impossible to beat the game without picking up any studs
Yeah only problem is it would just be the same category with killing yourself like 5 times before the end of the level
For me personally when capturing my Wii, I use an Elgato which is a really effective and simple option but the main problem is that it is expensive. If you have the money to afford it, I would get an Elgato capture card as they have a lot of cool accessibility. I think as a money efficient option is something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-5-Pack-Plated-Adapter/dp/B0141KPCDY/ref=sr_1_9?crid=2H39PXJ55FBC0&keywords=rca+splitter+1+male+to+2+female&qid=1559494432&s=electronics&sprefix=splitters+male+%2Celectronics%2C141&sr=1-9 or any other GV-USB2 Capture Devices should work. The only thing about getting the GV-USB is that (i may be wrong) you need 3 splitters and an AV cable and some other things that I personally do not know very much about but I would join this discord: https://discord.gg/xnbEg8w and some other people might be able to help you out with capturing your wii and also speedrunning this game
Well it depends what platform you are playing on. If you are playing on PC, I would record using OBS Studio and stream using Streamlabs OBS. If you are on console you are going to need to get some sort of capture device that can record it. I’m pretty sure if you are on Xbox you can stream right off the console.
What I personally do when I beat a time is keep the old run but change it from public to unlisted on my channel. I would keep the old ones just for documentation.
Late reply, but I did my run in my own order and it was verified so it's probably fine
Will there ever be more co-op runs for more categories. Perhaps as a misc category for some of the level runs as I think there is some cool tricks that could be implemented. Just like 2 players not all the other ones.
Me and my friend were doing co-op any% and he was trying to farm ender pearls. I was in the overworld as well so he wasn't getting as many mob spawns so i left the server for about 7 minutes during the night so he could get more mob spawns. I am the server host and was the one recording and i'm wondering if it is ok for me to leave the server and just look at the console for a few minutes during a run while the other player is doing things.
