Hey SMG2 runners! After testing/confirming that Evanbowl's restart mod does not affect cycles or the in-game timer (thank you Shadow64), we're happy to announce that it will be allowed for single star runs ONLY. This will not be allowed for world RTA, all stars, normal stars, or green star runs. Additionally, we have added a filter called "Modified" to single star runs. If you use this mod, you must select "Modded" when submitting runs. If you choose to run without the mod, please select "Unmodded". Additionally, SMG2 leaderboard mods reserve the right to ban this mod if it turns out that it gives runners a direct unfair advantage (i.e. favorable cycles, affects the in-game timer, etc.). If this occurs, runs that were previously verified will be rejected if the mod directly gave those runs an advantage that cannot be replicated on an unmodified version of SMG2, otherwise they will be grandfathered in. Keep in mind that this will be the only mod for SMG2 allowed on the boards, any other mods are still banned. Lastly, rules on speedrun.com for single star runs have been updated to include a link to the mod. We hope runners will enjoy this quality of life mod and that it will incentivize runners to grind single stars even further!
