I think Twin Galaxies Rules would be a nice name for this category. Anything not within "the spirit of the game" is banned.
I think (s)he means the Dark Side and Darker Side levels and not portions of the Dark or Darker Side categories, but I could be wrong.
It seems like it would make sense to ban some of the 8-Airship skips in this category.
No Big Skips would be a better name because none of these are technically glitches. Also, I would probably hate this just because of Section 1 Bowser.
Edit: Bombless is a glitch apparently.
Yeah, the video does not look right. It looks like it's spliced. What I don't understand is why they would splice a time that isn't even that good.
Maybe this should get its own thread, but I've stopped receiving notifications despite following many games. I used to get notifications for WRs and forum posts, but they just stopped coming.
The one I was talking about was using a clip to get the First Moon with the rock still active and without checkpoints to warp to. That might be faster, but I wouldn't know.
Maybe it's possible in Cap. I know that if you clip to get the First Moon in Cascade before grabbing the Checkpoint, you would be soft locked except maybe with a save and reset.
Also, I might like to see whether it skipped like that in the Twitch VOD.
I looked through his Any% times. 2 things seemed a little weird.
- All times go from best at the top to worst at the bottom except the bottom 2 are switched. Is this just a speedrun.com error or what?
- He had really long descriptions for most of his earlier runs. However, his 2nd best run had no description, and his best run just said he skipped 1:13. Those are just some things I noticed. I wouldn't know whether they mean all that much.
