All 1UPs No Level Select route which I thought is allowed?

Hello,

I thought a new All 1UPs No Level Select route.

  1. Get 1-1,1-2,2-1,3-1,5-1 1UP mushrooms using conventional route
  2. Go to 4-1, and Game Over in 4-1
  3. Get 4-1,6-1,7-1,8-1,8-2 1UP mushrooms and beat the game using the continue code. After you soft reset, You can start from 4-1 because you did game over in 4-1. The time I ran is 14:03 (this is faster than WR and this run has a lot of time save) (no video sorry).

I have a question. The route is allowed? Yes/No and why?

Thank you.

Copied directly from the rules: Game over/reset is allowed

You have found the secret of using continue after a soft reset ^_^

Love that 4-2 Fire Grab as well

for me it doesn't work, is it because of i'm using a smb+duck hunt cartridge?

@youtubeman06 Hmm... At least, it works on original Famicom NTSC cartridge, 3DSVC and WiiUVC.

In the case of smb + duck hunt cartridge, since reset = hard reset, it seems that this procedure can not be used.

11x Categories - New Timing Method

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
