Hello, I am a casual speedrun fan that is inquiring about potential runners for a Sonic Race in the style of the "Super Mario 602". The event will begin place on the fourth of March at 3:00 PM (aka the start of Spring Break for most people in school).

The event is also meant to showcase so the list of games is huge (the idea was to pull from the entire series history)
Not really big into 2D Mario but it seems all levels on hard mode would be the best definition for Mario Land coming from the perspective of an outsider looking in.
Signed up as a Galaxy 1 and 2 player/ backup position (depends on date and time).

Basically the premise is to have a group of people complete as many Mario games as possible in the time limit.
Having discussed the game with /r/speedrun the consensus seems to be that the any% equivalent would be getting a matured Dragonache (the point at which you surpass your mentor). As far an all species run goes you would basically be the first to run the category which gives you some freedom assuming the only other viva pinata player (Scykoh) was ok with it.
