Why there are no single star runs anymore?
Campania, Italy

I was looking at the level leaderboards and i found that there were No single star runs,just Stage RTA. Why single star runs aren't a thing anymore?

It is because it has already been optimized so many times.

being too optimised is like, the worst reason imaginable to remove them, that's like completely removing SMB from the site because it's too optimised

That's the one. It is linked on the "Leaderboard histories" sheet

So if I were to run a single star run on emu, how would I retire the run from n64 timing?

@Mruns_05 You can't. You can use in-game time to compare your times since it will be the same for n64 and emu, but since emu does not have lag like n64, and part of single star execution is lag reduction on n64, emu real times cannot be compared to n64 real times.

I really hope you'll bring back the single star RTA as this has been a great help for many of us trying to do longer runs faster. Now for example, I am trying to find out if a tj in bits is faster than the common route, but it takes more time when I don't have an official "This is the fastest. period"-video to look at.

The single star records can be found here. They were moved for a couple of reasons, but essentially it was mainly moved because the leaderboard format didn't exactly fit the information people wanted conveyed. This site has much more info on WR progression of the stars, potential strat improvements, ideal times, and of course the current records (both real time and IGT).

The spreadsheet found on that page is also linked at the top of the Resources tab on SRC.
