Q. What category are you running? The title says 100%?

A. I lied. Sorry. The category I'm running, and the game I'm running, both have a giant name, so to be succinct I abbreviate both. I run the no-badges 100% category of this game.

Q. Why no badges?

A. Badges make the game really easy, and bore me a lot. To see an example of badges and why I reached the conclusion they're no good for a 100% speedrun, watch this clip. https://youtu.be/GgG0cn9eS8U?t=11m19s

Q. What is WR?

A. At this moment, whatever my PB is. This game is very long and takes a giant amount of time to learn and pickup, so while there are some other people interested in running this category, at the moment no others have challenged it.

Q. What is your goal? What is the best possible time?

A. I don't really run speedgames with goals, and save a few easy and meme-game type things, I've never really met a goal or gotten a really good time in speedgames I care about, so I'll just be running this until it stops being fun I guess. At this moment I'm trying to get a run where I don't have to revisit any levels for stamps or health reasons, and once that happens and I've become familiar and comfortable with the game, then I can start doing some really cool optimization and not have to worry about messing up the basics as much.

Q. Cool optimization?

A. This game has a lot of room for improvement past what I'm doing at this moment, with 2-controller madness yet to be implemented, and awesome egg stuff also not being done too much at the moment. Although this game is a little laggy when shooting eggs, there's still tons of chances to save time by using them well, and with 2-controller stuff, tons of cool multitasking can be done, with only my mind and physical ability as the limit. Hopefully I can master controlling 2 yoshis at once!!

Q. Two controllers? You mean co-op?

A. No! It's very possible for one person to control 2 yoshis, either at the same time or in a sort of staggered play, and in this game you can do lots of cool tricks and skips with a second controller.

Q. What controller do you use for your runs?

A. For player 1 I always use a Wii remote, as they are much faster than any remote for several reasons. With the wiimote having a gyro sensor and an accelerometer(basically tilt functions) you can aim your eggs BEFORE you shoot them, and it allows for you to aim your eggs faster, AND more precisely than using the regular aiming function in yoshis. For player 2 I currently use a Pro Controller, although that may change if I find using other controllers for 2-player is easier.

Q. Why is your FAQ so bad?

A. I don't ever use FAQs, I'm sorry ;__;
