I think we should add Any% Skippable cutscene. Where it’s Any% but you start after the tutorial/cutscene. This would be good for reducing the waiting time after resetting.
@Otterstone_Gamer That's called racefile, and it's leaderboard is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hGaBoxoLfQ3DgSF03_fs2U4Wd96wi-kgT3KOQ52Cuug
Flooded Plaza All Shines
Play from a save file that directly lands you in the flooded plaza. Timing starts on file select. Timing ends when the Shine Sprite counter ticks over to the next number after collecting the last Shine Sprite.
Collect every possible Shine Sprite in the flooded Plaza. The 11 possible Shines are Pachinko, Gelato Pipe, Jail Secret, Chuckster, Lighthouse, Lilypad, Right Bell, Shine Gate, Gold Bird, Red Coin Field and Delfino 100 coins.
(Can you make "Flooded Plaza" a category, and "All Shines" and "All Shines All Blues" sub categories please ?)
All Plaza Blues:
Goal is to collect all the blue coins available in delfino plaza (airstrip is not included).
Time starts with race file and time ends on the final blue coin save prompt.
Hoverless All Blue Coins: Except you can't get all blue coins hoverless so we just stick with 236. Goal: Get all blue coins possible without using the hover nozzle. Timing starts on file select, and it should be treated like a Normal/Hoverless Category like the main category leaderboard has it.
Run:
Super Mario Sunshine Emulator Any%
Rules: Same rules as any percent on console and Wii. This run would be for people who can't afford a Gamecube or Wii that could play SMS, and letting them abide by the rules of any percent if they wanted to go for WR, however it would only count for the emulator category.
Get Stuck in the Sand%
-Timer starts on racefile select -Goal: Get Mario stuck in the sand -Timer ends when Mario hits the sand and gets stuck in it
Break Mario's Legs%
-Goal: Die by fall damage -Timer starts on racefile select -Timer ends when you die of fall damage -Fruit stand clip is not allowed, you must die of fall damage
“-Fruit stand clip is not allowed, you must die of fall damage” Sounds like you mean “Death by standing out of bounds is not allowed”, banning that one clip would be pretty arbitrary, and you can take fall damage by landing oob which would fit the goal of dying from fall damage
It's not technically dying from fall damage. Although you do take fall damage from landing oob, the reason you die is from being oob, not from taking fall damage.
No I mean you can take 7 damage, then fall out of bounds and you’ll die from fall damage, not from being oob
Hello,
I would like to propose a category extension called Any%n't. In the run, you start with a completed any% file with nothing else done on it, and proceed to collect every shine not obtained in an any% run. This includes all the blue coins, all delfino shines, episode 8 shines, hidden shines, 100 coin shines, Gelato 1-6, Bianco 1, and Pinna 5. Timing starts upon file select, and ends when your shine count displays 120. You do not have to defeat bowser, as it is done in any%.
I'm proposing this for two reasons: 1) it features the latter half of 120 runs, which a lot of people enjoy, and 2) it provides an interesting routing opportunity.
Here's a link to my awful first run:
If there are anymore questions, feel free to let me know.
Best, GB
