Hey, I was wondering if these two categories would make for interesting categories. I've been learning some of the tricks and techniques for this game and was looking for a category to get into.

4 Candles: At grandpa's shrine there's 4 candles that light up as you get certain amounts of "points" in his evaluation. They all light up when you get 12+ points, and you can get the "Statue of Perfection" which seems to indicate this as an intended goal. There's a list of the criteria here ( http://stardewvalleywiki.com/Grandpa ). I was thinking the gold pumpkin glitch would make it easy to get 7 points right away from the earnings. As well the green wallpaper exploit could make most of the friendliness and marriage goals quick to do (3 points). However upgrading the house fully to complete the point associated with marriage would be a problem, as you'd need to get the wood and mostly hardwood for the first two upgrades. Then, buying stone to quickly get to the 120th floor of the mines to get the skull key would also get 1 point. For the last point, getting the pet friendliness to max would be fairly easy to do, since it's right next to the house. I'm not sure how to best route those options but they seem easy to achieve.

Max Points: A much harder category, involving getting all 21 of Grandpa's evaluation points ( http://stardewvalleywiki.com/Grandpa ). This involves completing the community center, completing the museum (as well as getting the rusty key), catching all fish, shipping EVERY item in the collections tab ( http://stardewvalleywiki.com/Shipping ), and the money/friendship requirements. This seems like the true 100% category for the game, if it could be called such.

I'd definitely be interested in helping to route out the 4 candle run, but I don't know how to even start approaching the max points run.
