What if we created a category that made you collect every single checkpoint in the game, postgame included. This would make some extreme oppnimization, as paintings contains checkpoints. Timer would start clicking "Start" on a new savefile and end the second you touch the last checkpoint. To show the run is valid, go to the map and show the landskape of every kingdom, so that we can see the checkpoints one by one.

Sounds like a dope category but I have an idea of how to more easily verify the run, if you talk to Toadette in the Mushroom Kingdom there is an achievement related to collecting checkpoint flags, I believe there are 85 checkpoints total in the game so if the Toadette counter is at 85 then you should have collected every checkpoint flag

Good Idea! then verryfiers dont have to use 56789 years to veriy...

there's 80 cp's

I believe some checkpoints get replaced by the Odyssey, my counter is at 85 and so is most peoples counters when I googled it

85 is max, 3 aren't on revisit of cascade/beating mecha wiggler

im working on a powerpoint. I'll do a run after that, hopefully before i go on a vacation to italy

If you need help I'm available, I made a spreadsheet myself of potential routes for some kingdoms
I also did a map with all the Checkpoints on it for each kingdom

This is my progress so far on my powerpoint: https:/​/​docs.​google.​com/​presentation/​d/​1jMIx6Q2bpVeVVvu9LHOEP-95mIkcUh09jrWMIKiiTjU/​edit?ts=5cf4b5e9&pli=1#slide=id.​g58b4d499a6_0_25

Access denied, oof

It says I dont have access to view the document

I dunno how to fix it...

Let's not spam people's notifications, DM me on Discord and I'll try to help, Discord is Smoothie#8877 (If you don't have Discord then idk what to do)

Just join the SMO speedrunning Discord while you're at it. Link is at the left column on the main board

I think it is a good Category,so.....why not

I gave up on it cuz i made a powerpoint about a meh route to use. Turns out i missed 1 single checkpoint, i couldnt seem to find where i missed 1. So yeah...

nice idea lul lol
Maybe I run it by the way some day.

@FroZen_WaTer_99FroZen_WaTer_99 in my opinion, you forgot one in mushroom kingdom.
