101 Sprite Race 5/13/22 and 101 Notes/Guide/Route

Anyone and everyone is invited to participate in our upcoming race: 101 Sprites or Bust! Starting Friday, May 13th at 7pm EST (11pm GMT). Anyone is welcome to join in, or play along off stream. Time estimates are upwards of 24 hours. The HMSR marathon channel will likely be hosting the squad stream for those that do stream. (https://www.twitch.tv/harvestmoonspeedruns)
If you are interested in participating, let me know via discord DM or by posting in the hm-ds channel https://discord.gg/MCwBNXA
(Start time is subject to change depending on participants availability, please let me know)

I've complied updated notes/information about all 101 sprites, also my anticipated route (there's a spoiler wall if you don't want to see it) I would recommend trying to route independently before seeing mine, you may come up with a better idea than I did!

Earth% Beginner's Guide

This category is fairly short but features a lot of glitches and tricks that are used in the longer categories, it is a starting point if one wants to get into Harvest Moon DS as a speedgame.
