Hey! So I've been working on seeing what it would take to do a Doctor Kel% run on version 8.2 and after some exploration and a quick test I was hoping for some clarifications.

I assume that the mailbox is also banned for the run but I want to make sure since the rules do not mention it. I also wanted to know if buying parts of Kerfur omega like the omega ai module or the knee/ball joints would be allowed. That would be especially helpful since getting the safe without the scuba mask is kinda dreadful though I've mostly figured it out.

My last question would be about breaks. So with my initial testing I got to day 6 in 4 hours. I wasn't able to sleep much the first day since I was collecting all the parts for Kerfur Omega but afterwards i was sleeping as much as I could. I was also making sure to climb whenever I had the chance and I wasn't sleeping. If the time I have so far is expanded out then it would take around 70 hours to get through all 50 days of story events. Unless I'm misunderstanding something or there's a way to speed up time that's completely unreasonable to do in a single sitting. I wanted to know what the rules for taking breaks would be.

I wanted to get these questions cleared up before I dive into my first real attempt. Thanks a ton in advance! (also the question about buying Kerfur omega parts also goes towards Omega Kerfur % for 8.2 since I'm considering running that one as well.)

I was just wondering if any% could be run on a completed file. There's nothing in the rules that says that it can't.

Edit: After thinking about this it sounds dumb, but my reasoning is that you have to go through all the levels anyway. Playing on a completed file saves maybe 2 - 5 seconds due to menuing and there wont be any gyro or nephew text.
