@DKGM I want to preface this by thanking you again for your suggestion. We love having new ideas around here :). After thinking about the category I've decided not to add it. Activities being done from the menu screen have no concrete way to measure what counts as a completion by stamp standards as they don't award said stamps. This makes defining rules for the category very arbitrary since rules for stamp completion and rules for activity completion are completely different. For example: In Any%, it often happens where, in order to save time, runners will fail activities or play them in unintentional ways. This doesn't award an activity completion but does award a stamp. So, because of the disparity of completion standards, I've decided against this category for now. Thanks again for your suggestion. :)
If I understand you correctly what you are asking for is any%. We already have this as a category- go check it out! :)
Thank you for your suggestions vizllsto! Currently, a 100% category is not being considered. The reason for this is mainly because of the theorized length of the run, the uncertain requirements, and the many differences between the Switch and Wii versions.
As for your question concerning IL leaderboards, right now I would much rather have a category for all levels of a mode (for example ATV Races Sprint Race 100%, Marine Bike Races Hoop Challenge 100% etc.) than have a category for a specific level of a mode. If you are interested in running a category like this, I can set it up for you.

They are allowed. I should tell you that emulator runs are generally slower though.
A new category has been added called All Photo Locations. Go check it out!
The Level Leaderboard has been added. Currently there are two categories:
- Free/Casual Diving (moved from the full game leaderboard)
- Motor Fest
If you have any suggestions for the Level Leaderboard let me know and I may add them. :)
Sounds like a good category, if you run it i'll set it up. Just let me know on discord when you have.
Would you have it so you must complete the bungee jump activity as well or just get to the bungee spots?
A few changes have been made to the leaderboard as suggested by Dry Yoshi
- Runs will be timed in seconds now instead of milliseconds unless there is a tie.
- Not all runs will require video proof if over a certain time (each category will be different).
I have put together a discord to talk about the leaderboard and speedrunning the game. It is very much a WIP and i'm open to ideas for it.
Honestly right now it's just because I like to have them timed like that. I wouldn't require anyone to time their run in milliseconds because as you say there isn't really any reason. I'm willing to make the timing less accurate but i'd like to hear what everyone else thinks about it first.
These are some great ideas that could definitely become future categories! As they would be very long runs I don't think I would run them myself but could set up a leaderboard should anyone decide to do a run of them. Thank you for your ideas.
I have added the category as "Any%" since once you collect all the stamps you get the credits. Thanks for the category idea :)
I'm not sure what you mean. Do you intend to do a speedrun of all the categories?
This is actually the category I am trying to add next. If you want to do a run of it I will add it to the leaderboard.
