i have 21 of the 40 main course skipless category WRs and 7/8 of the skipless full-game WRs, the lowest average finish, and the lowest cumulative time

all of these are WRs:

Excitebike 64 - Madrid, Spain - 2:32.96 by meauxdal

current WR count:
22 - me
10 - myohmypancakes (former champ)
5 - past (jp runner, not on the speedrun.com leaderboards)
4 - ghillieguide

the “wr count” page on my spreadsheet isn’t quite right because it isn’t counting pancakes’ and my tie on the orlando fast lap

[VastleCania]

it’s so awesome that one of my favorite people has so many WRs in one of my favorite games. good friggin job

[meauxdal]

first ever 1:21, possibly the last second that will ever be saved on this level

Excitebike 64 - Orlando, FL - 1:21.98 by meauxdal

[meauxdal]

26.76 is so good, i have tied it 3 times now and still haven’t been able to squeak out another frame. it’s the only current tied WR in the game

[meauxdal]

i’m in that really rarefied place as a speedrunner where my skills have hit such a higher gear in such a short period of time that i get one or more new WRs nearly every time i play the game now enjoying this while it lasts
