We're planning an SM63 Any% Tournament. You can enter at http://challonge.com/sm63any ! We'll probably do other tournaments, but to start we're doing any% as it's the most accessible category. We definitely plan on doing bingo, and perhaps longer categories such as 100% eventually.

Check out the tournament rules & informations on the challonge page.

What? This isn't an April Fool's Joke. I've done the trick myself.

Oh dang. What's the new time estimate, 20, 30 minutes?

There is an offline version with the faster FPS. I'll put it in the resources section.

I'd imagine we should go by the star map. I don't know exactly how the star map maps out for secret stars though.

I'd rather go with something along the lines of a Max% FLUDDless than a 100% Minimum FLUDD. There can be optimizations to your requirements though, using some simple glitches it is easy to remove some FLUDD usages.

So when does time start?

LShift Z X Enter RShift Numpad Enter is clearly the best.

Yeah that would make sense too.

Thanks! I'm thinking about splitting categories for any% and good ending / deathless, what do you think?

I can replicate it, it wasn't that hard, but yeah, new strats incoming.

Suicide generally lowers happiness. Best strat is to come to terms with death and then do risky stuff.

I consider Soulless Pacifist the Trifecta, given that neutral is completed in the Pacifist part of it.

Ooh can you make me a mod so I can make IGT a thing?

There's a setting for ascending timer in speedrun.com. We could even just use the in game time, no need to subtract it.

Not if you make a really weird custom mouse. Or how about this, what if someone happens to use a keyboard that uses scroll wheels instead of keys? It's a stupid argument though, yeah.

If changing keyboards is allowed then building a mouse that has scroll up counts as Z arguably should be allowed.

I don't understand why using a keyboard to input via num pad is allowed but achieving the same effect via software isn't. Remapping stuff should totally be allowed, unless you want to ban all but one type of keyboard.

I get that it's a meme, but PLEASE
