So... No grab category. Yup. Only Bowser's tail can be grabbed. If you grab anything else the run is forfeit.
Congrats to Kanno on the Any% No Grabbing Objects That Aren't Bowser's Tail World Record of 6:31.52!!
So that would be: 0 Star: change nothing 1 Star: change nothing 16 Star: impossible 16 Star noLBLJ: impossible 31 Star: no bombclip, no pillarless, no CCM lil penguin, no mips star 70 Star: no bombclip, no Pillarless, no WDW100?!, no lil penguin, no 2x mips. Did I miss anything? Does not seem much. 120 Star: impossible
So in short: just leaving out "grabbing" stuff is not interesting at all as it changes very little about the actual run.
EDIT: Also: This belongs into the Category Extensions Forum! EDIT#2: Also also could people please choose another title than "New Category" when suggesting a category? Like what is so hard about making the title "Category Idea: No Grabs" so people know what to expect?!
Well there could be a "max% no grabbing" which would mean:
BoB - Every star except King Bob-omb and Koopa the Quick WF - Every star JRB - Every star CCM - Every star except the little penguin BBH - Every star Secret stars: 2 slide stars, Aquarium, Wing Cap, and Dark World Reds.
Alternatively, there could possibly be a "max% no B button" which would be almost the same except that you could get the little penguin star by using the vertical wind. It would also be a lot more interesting since you wouldn't be able to dive, jump kick, or slide kick.
i have 2 things to say:
- new categories shouldnt be created just for the purpose of being there, categories usually provide their own interesting twist that doesnt exist in any other category. the category youre suggesting is pretty much just all the regular categories with some stars you cant do.
- this isnt directly for whoever made this post, but if any of the people that are interested in this want to, id recommend to check out pannenkoek's b button challenge video that covers all required b presses for both any% and 120 star plus some cool tech to skip some other ones.
We would like to announce that VC and EMU subcategories are now active on the Stage RTA leaderboards (under "Levels"). Stage RTA involves collecting all the stars in a given stage including the 100 coin star. Timing starts on star select and ends upon collecting the final star. You are allowed to us
