Can we have Individual Island Runs as ILs?

The Goal (Unless Stated Otherwise) is to reach the Island's Lighthouse for Normal Islands, Reach the top of the Great Lighthouse for Great Lighthouse Islands

Timing Starts when Selecting the Drifting Island and ends when...

In Normal Island Runs: Fade to black after pulling the plug from the Lighthouse

in Great Lighthouse Island Runs: the beginning of the Great Lighthouse Completion Cutscene

Gobblick%? Well... how about a Great Lighthouse Category, Where the goal is to complete the Lushgreen Sea Great Lighthouse from a new game?

I guess that would work better

This really has nothing to do with the island runs but I’m just curious if you have to have game audio audible during the run?

To be honest this might be the best game in the series to have proper ILs, even though it would suck having to replay a save file up until Jellyfish Island just so we can do a Jellyfish Island speedrun. Also people could in theory just grind Seedles in the first island before they start their Rumbla Island speedrun and be ultra powerful and OHKO everything. Probably. Assuming you can grind in Conductor Island in the first place.

So each island should probably have a level threshold that you shouldn't surpass. I do personally think "Individual Island" runs would be more interesting than "Beat X from new game". But it does require more setup that people probably won't be willing to go through.

@EthanW123 I can't speak for the mods, but it is recommended to have audio audible during the run. If you can, there's no reason not to.

If you were going to work with level thresholds for ILs, I would just go with whatever the avg. level of someone doing any% speedruns when they got to that level. Though item strategy would change if you aren't thinking long term right?
