The way the category would work would be simple, after beating the game you would pop one balloon from Luigi's Balloon World in each kingdom, you can start and end in whatever kingdom you choose. The rules could be you can't input a balloon ID and possibly the balloon has to be a certain distance away from the start. Timing would start when you press 'A' to speak to Luigi in the first kingdom or when you press 'A' on Find It and end when you pop the last balloon. Currently I haven't recorded a run and just wondered would anyone be interested in this category.
I honestly think that this is not a good idea because there will be a lot of RNG to got the certain balloons in certain places and they take different amounts of time. Also, some balloons may be out of bounds so you may have one run that takes 15 minutes and another that takes 10, but with really good gameplay and popping the balloons on the first try.
@linny356 The runner could choose whatever balloon they want from the 3 pages , timing would be RTA for the run and there wouldn't be a difference in timing a 600 meter balloon than a 30 meter balloon and when I thought of the category I knew there would be lots of RNG.
So a run with balloons all 200 meters apart would be just as equal as one 10 meters apart and one with balloons out of bounds? Or should there be a separate category for out of bounds?
@linny356 yes those two runs would be timed the same making the category quite RNG dependant and i don't think there would be a separate category for out of bounds balloons, as while I have played Luigi's balloon world I don't come across out of bounds balloons that often unless I specifically try to find them.
You could do this with the tutorial balloons, as that would remove the multiplayer aspect
The people speaking about just have luck with the ballon that appea and with that with very bad luck you got an horrible one… And no one realice you can just choice the ballon XD So doesnt go to a ballon that its at 600 meter of distance dudes XD So there, until being of luck, it can be more controlable
In all case, it seems as a great category to got it Should be nice to have that category based a litle bit on RNG, and it realy doesnt affect as much And, by the way, should be not the only one with RNG in this leaderboard @linny356 coof coof talkatoo% COOF COOF (now look at him imagen xdxd) :) ; im not criticating that category, all the reverse, I think both are great to run
I dont understand why many people think its not a good category for the CE
Ps: font run it if you dont want, but common men xd
A question: In a 100% count with ballon world started and all of that? Starting at that momento with Luigi´s Ballon World? Basicaly, in what type of count have to be? Or doesnt matter that? Want to know yeah
I would say that there would only be 1 category, as you could cheese only one kingdom. But, if there would to be multiple, there would be “Random” and “Selected.” Selected being where you make specific guidelines to what a “usable” balloon would be, and random is where you can use any balloon. If there were an “OoB” category, it would have every balloon be out-of-bounds. But if you could do only one kingdom, you would have to give the specifics of the balloon that you popped. You would have to give the distance, whether it was out-of-bounds or inbounds, and how many coins you had to pay to play that round. You found also rate the balloon on its difficulty (0-5), 5 being the hardest.
Those are the guidelines I think the category would have.
@linny356 For the "Selected" category are you saying that the runners make their own rules for the categroy?
Because that wouldn't end well
No. The mods do. For random, you can use whatever ones you like, but you have to list the specifics for the balloon(s) that you pop.
Okey, im confuse with "you can decide your own rules" in a subcategory and "the mods do it" in the other one
Okey, the "what do you think" sounds like this is a trap to try to demostrate me why is a bad category XD But I supose I think we should just make a category with this tematique, where you can decide the ballon to use that you found in your ballon´s list, and maybe with some rules we should have to take, and if we sepatate in sucategories, to be "decide ballon" and "first ballon of the list in each one", or something like that Depending
What do you think? (i will probably regret of return the ask but idk XD)
I think you should try and do it so you have to get all the tutorial balloons. This means no RNG and it still has the finding balloon.
I also agree with finding the tutorial balloons as this category would be very RNG dependant and as a runner it wouldn't be that fun to run and also when trying to find just one balloon you have two go through quite a bit of dialogue since you have to connect to the network. I guess there could be two subcategories one where you pop the tutorial balloons and one where you pop random balloons, if this is made a category and this is what happens I think the more popular sub category will be popping the tutorial balloons.
