"87%" - Full Completion 1 Loop Category
2 years ago
California, USA

I wanted to run the equivalent of 101% "all bonuses and extra content" without having to play through the game 3 times. Since there were no runs of the type I had to decide how to define the category. The main questions were if Candy's Challenges and stickerbooks needed to be done. Candy's Challenge only has to be completed once per file but doesn't actually contribute any %. There are 18 stickerbooks which are worth 1% each and only 6 of them are available on the first loop of the game. In the end I decided to do the Candy's Challenges and get the 6 stickerbooks in the spirit of completion.

After finishing all this the file will show 87%. I believe the remaining 14% divides into 1% per stickerbook for the remaining 12, and 1% for completing the game each time in the other two modes (DK barrels off, star barrels off). Since I had a run to post I created the category and titled it 87%. I'm opening this thread just in case anyone wants to discuss the name of the category or the requirements of the run. The name is concise but somewhat ambiguous, since Candy's Challenges aren't required for % and since you could make up missing % points in the other modes. I specified these restrictions in the category rules to help make it unambiguous.

If anyone ever wants to do a true 101% run with 3 playthroughs, I'd be happy to make a category as soon as there's a run to submit.

I'm playing 101% soon I'll get in touch to report a complete race but I'm in no rush to change the board when I have a race I'll let the game community know

Sounds good! I would say to pause the timer between each playthrough. So hit pause when the victory fanfare starts after defeating K. Rool, and resume it when you re-select the file for the next playthrough. You can take a break while the timer is paused, but don't cut the video recording and don't make the break excessively long.

I would like to know if it is allowed to record standard video using a cell phone, filming the video game screen in this way ?

I am not a moderator, but if you have a video I think it would be fine.

Thank you for your contribution, I will finally explain, I can't use another form of capture, I don't have the equipment for that, I will post a video playing this game, when I can, I will post it this way if it is approved, I am very grateful to everyone, thank you for help.

Yes, this is fine. Just make sure the video is single segment and do your best to capture all gameplay and sound.
