I think we put a point limit for each chapter for Chapter Speedruns. The reason is because if you max out your points (say by doing the 1-1 Squiglet Grind over and over again), you can just breeze through the game. In my opinion, there should be a point limit on (before you start) each Chapter (mainly after Chapter 1 because most people start Chapter 1 with 0 points). This is just something I thought could be improved about the Chapter Speedrun category.

This will overall make the speedrun more engaging and challenging (in my opinion).

I think this would be a good idea although it would be difficult to determine where a "reasonable" place to set the limit for each chapter is. Maybe just have a bunch of people do a casual playthrough of the game (kill enemies you encounter, but don't go out of your way to farm points) and set the point limit at 2 or 3x the average amount of points everyone had at the beginning of each chapter, though I know a lot of people will actually do the 1-1 grind at the beginning of full game runs so maybe 4-5x would be better. Alternatively it could be by levels but A) this could be cheesed by getting to the level limit and then grinding points until you're like 50 points away from just leveling up anyway, and B) there's the issue of higher levels requiring ludicrous amounts of points to achieve anyway which I think kind of defeats the purpose of having a level limit.
