So the category would be (NO L PRESSES) You cant press the left button anywhere in the run. This would be interesting since this takes a bit of skill. So basically i can not think of any% being a possibility because even if you could clip in 4-2 warp zone (which you cant do probably) You could still go only to world 7 at best without l-r because the screen didnt scroll enough. So basically the only category i can think of is 1 warp. You do either 1-2 pipe clip or minus world glitch facing forward (its possible i did it) and enter world 5 in the middle pipe. The difficulty of this becomes that 8-4 walljump for example is REQUIRED. The next problem is that fpg is out of question, because of course you cant press left so not really that doable. Infact, not even 1-2 pipe clip is possible since left button is required for it to work. The only way to get to world 5 without pressing left and beating other stages is by doing facing forward minus world glitch. Without pressing left, a very huge number of glitches in the game are becoming impossible. Fpg is impossible, full fpg is possible in 8-2 though. The other problem is that beating the game without left needs extreme perfection and isnt that easy, however would be interesting to see someone pull it off. By far forward minus world glitch isnt that hard but the problem is you have to do it FIRST TRY to get it to work, which will lead to tons of resets, other than that its self explanatory and not really THAT hard. If you know the levels you can probably do it without that much problem. Even though the game was not supposed to be scrolled to the left side, now i realize how much stuff does that button actually do, and how important it is. Without the left button, nobody could EVER pull off even a sub 10, not even close so yea, i think that you should try playing SMB without using left button and see how fast can you beat the game. GL. Also if mods ever consider adding new categories here you have an idea. Also all runs should include input display because of course the left button can not be pressed at any point.
Infact not really hard if you memorize the levels. I never ever press left in world 8 (except 8-4) Also, this wouldnt be a nightmare for mods since you can clearly tell when left is pressed and i cant think of pretty much any way someone can hide pressing left. So, a single view on the run is enough to see if left was pressed or not. There isnt any way you can hide the fact that you pressed left because even if you press it midair you slow down. Also, if mod sees something wasnt right he can just check the input display to make sure, maximum of 20 min verification which is not a lot for a category that wouldnt be runned by more than max 10 people.
We would have to implement special rules for something like that. We would have to require all players have an input display and that they record at 60FPS which is not reasonable for everyone.
Also, no, sorry.
If you want to have your idea considered, I'd propose the idea in the unofficial discord/leaderboard. Maybe suggest it with a completed run as well. Posting it here while we aren't accepting new categories isn't going to provide much benefit. It will likely be lost within the realm of dead threads as time goes on.
Well, without think on it, it sound nice, but realy in the game you been the most of the time pressing rigth, sooo… Realy depending of the category And yeah, very hard to verificate it, more if the run is so long
Any% as actual route literaly is imposible because you cant take warps in much of that, and in all case the difference would be very small apart of the FPGs and Wall passes, as much maybe a bit the bonks in 4-2 and the wall jump in 8-4 lul
Maybe in Warpless the thing change by the way, but I doent know about it
Ps: @darG maybe true in part, but in all case dont be as rude with that dude . _ . -.- ._. :/
Hey Folks!
Just wanted to announce a new change to timing methods for both 11x categories. The new timing standards are as follows:
- Timing starts from power-on/reset (or game select if you're using one of the combo cartridges).
- Timing ends on grabbing the axe on the 11th run.
- Time betw
