the 0 Star category

for those who are wondering, why 0 star is a category now, i managed it to do a trials skip which also skips getting the star needed in 1 star:

Answers for possible questions:

Q: Why aren't 0 and 1 star being put together as one category? A: I would only like doing this if collecting one star less isn't much harder than collecting the star (or maybe even easier) because then it is more like a single strat and nothing that would make having 2 categories be senseful. In this case it is like 0 and 1 star in the original SM64. Finishing a 1 star run is surely nice but nothing special compared to 0 star, 0 star is a lot harder but if you finish a run it is a super achievement. If both categories were put together this achievement would be at some point unnecessary and only being a time-saving strat. It's similar in this case.

Q: Wouldn't there need to be a 20 star category if there are 0 and 1 star? A: Well, i personally don't see a sense, you do 21 star because it is quite easy compared to 1 star. If you have such a hard skip in a category which is supposed the be easy the sense is gone.
