- Over the years, people have endured the challenge of trying to beat the game as fast as possible with zero powerups, which means: No Capes, No Flowers, No Mushrooms, No Yoshi. The name of this has had quite a unique and very split history and has had dire consequences for the run as a whole, with the biggest notably being a handful of records being completely deleted. Let's pick this complicated run apart!

A week after uploading this video, I have recovered surviving footage of pogyo's 14:46.1. I found this in old DMs with a SMW runner, and funnily enough I was the one that posted this link - I did not recall this four to five years later and am kicking myself for not rediscovering till now.

Speed running and the people who feed into it are what is wrong with gaming.
They didn't call it _'SMALLs'_ !?!

I am simultaneously shocked and not at all surprised that there was such a commotion over the naming of a category.
Maybe admins should step in when this kind of BS occurs and just rename it to something like Hitler%, YourMom% or %% until the community in question starts acting like adults again.
@@LordMegatherium that sounds equal parts funny, unproductive and impractical . . . especially if the name is offensive enough to give any historians of the community an aneurysm.
Speed running and the people who feed into it are what is wrong with gaming.
pogyo: "If you don't call it low% I'm deleting everything"
mods: change it to have low% in the title again
pogyo: deletes everything anyways
so he's THAT petty. got it
what a douchebag geez
wtf there's pogyo lore I don't know about? and it's him being a bitch? that's really sad to hear actually
honestly shouldn't have been allow to post his new record. doesn't matter if it's real, if you're going to act like an infant, you should be put in time out
@@ShadowEclipse777i mean, to be fair, he resumed submitting runs after years had passed. i should hope that’s a long enough time out for him to think about what he’s done lmao
Speed running and the people who feed into it are what is wrong with gaming.
About ten or twelve years ago, when I was first discovering speedrunning, I asked an IRL gamer friend of mine if he had ever heard of speedrunning. He replied simply "I know about it yeah." It was several years before I learned he was jimsfriend and about stuff like this category. Good video, thanks for making.
Is there anything better than watching an hour-long documentary about a niche community of people who play old video games faster than anyone?
Excessive amounts of money. But documentaries are a close second
this feels too quirky and money hungry
I think its the right balance of money hungry and quirky
@@UselessBot yes
Nope
Oh my god dude you got a screenshot with my rabbit testicle avatar in it :DDDD I've already laughed like 8 times in this video just three minutes in. Looking forward to watching your take on the madness I unleashed on this game by introducing this category (for one main reason, that being I didn't want to have to compete with someone for best time aka new category = "free" world record).
You know, I could at least understand people getting upset if it was something like the old any% and 0 exit and complaining over who was technically any%. But with this category the fact that small only (which is the best description of what the category is) caused such a stir is astonishing.. Its funny how most people once they get a little bit of power they throw tantrums over the littlest things when they cant excersize that control over people. I mean 0 exit makes more sense to be called lowest% than small only. Because lowest% implies that a lower completion level no matter the time would trump a faster run with an additional exit. You've got to love the Internet..
Jesus the swapping of the koopas red shell for the green shell so it walks off the edge is genius, big mario may have brawn but small mario has brains
pogyo wasn’t very pog, yo.
Top tier vid ❤️
Wrong. Speed running and the people who feed into it are what is wrong with gaming.
"As a moderator, just let me fix that real quick>'
Chad mod and chad use of power.
Honestly I think this video is a very good case for why people should care more about keeping a record of things.
Even apart from the whole 'purposefully deleting runs' thing kinda screwing with the ability to make that section of the video (which honestly ended up also overshadowing his rival's records in the video), so much of the jimsfriend era of stuff could have easily been lost but because it wasn't, we got a whole story out of it.
I'm not saying "they werent pogyo's runs to delete" because as much as I am a 'preserve the history' advocate everyone has their own reasons and beliefs but I am saying "don't be petty about something that really doesn't matter".
I'm not gonna get in your way if you feel you need to delete your runs for some reason, but just please don't be extremely petty and pull a stunt because you didn't get your way, it doesn't make you look good.
HOLY SHIT. Deleting everything you've ever done in a game OVER A FUCKING CATEGORY NAME? I won't say what I truly think because it's not a pretty word... Holy shit.
If you don't, i will
Hope he has or will step on Legos every time he ever think of doing petty sh*t like that again, there, mean words have been said
From one videogame historian to another, I like it when you get frustrated and give your unfiltered opinion. Please do this more! ❤
I second this notion.
Epic video as always Storster!
Low%/Marinho%/Small Only category has a special place in my heart...
Wow, great vid! So comprehensive and love the effort you put into highlighting the specific strats used to beat records.
Also, to prevent further destruction of the leaderboards..
It should require moderator approval to delete / private a Top 10 run (top 10 @ the time it was posted).
Posting a run should be basically tied with signing a "contract" that you approve this run to be seen by the public, and promise to keep it there forever, for archival purposes.
That unfiltered opinion part was satisfying, much better than a disingenuous "don't harass people kids" even though no one was going to anyways.
and those who are doing won't stop just because someone says it
Pogyo cared so much about the name of a category, he made me think we should just not care about any records he may have held until he puts his pants back on.
exactly, he should have straight up been banned
Great job. Huge amount of effort. Without videos like this we'd never be able to appreciate all these amazing speedrunners.

Fire doc as always, and excellent work reassembling the timeline and making it easy to follow. Learning more about SMW history is always a good Saturday night. It also makes me feel old when the terrible sound version of Snes9x was considered the good emulator over ZSNES in my day.
I sincerely think that if someone wants to delete their footages and names from the leaderboard, their record should also be scrapped, since there is not video footage anymore. Even more so for such petiness.

As a History student at university i feel it every last bit when you rage on ppl deleting records and sources. Stay strong sis!
Ive been playing the game since about 2002, its 1 of my favorite mario games ever.
The only thing worse than naming wars is people who take them seriously lmao. This category is sick though, I love how hard it is
It's very funny that you mention how someone born on October 1st, 2005 would almost be an adult by now, as I was actually born on July 25th 2006, a day that seems very important to this category and the community. Very in-depth and easy to understand video, it is good to know about this category's history!
I’m going to delete all my future world records by not even running the category unless they change it to Poopy Pants Percent.
The alliteration, man. The _alliteration_ .
Also, what _didn’t_ Scott Kessler run? Seriously, which game’s history does not include that guy’s name? Get out of my head, Scott Kessler!
You know, they should make a category of speed running every game Scott has ever gotten a record in. It would be, like the holy grail of speed running.
We will call it the Kessler run, and the goal would be to to beat it in 12 parsecs or less. (I'm NOT apologizing)
I always do enjoy your content. Very informative and relaxing, the way you deliver things are wonderful. Keep it up, very happy with the progress you’ve made in a lot of regards!
This video was literally top suggestion after a video of Mortimer Mouse using his shrink ray and saying "Pete is big, and now he's small!" The TH-cam algorithm is the best thing ever sometimes!
What a cool bit of history! I love this sort of stuff and you're great at it 🎉
Speedrun histories are always so fun to watch, and you have such a nice voice to listen to too!
Small Only makes more sense to me. Low% sounds like it would fit for a low score challenge. But I would not really care if it was named something else. Thank you friend.
"and with practice it should become easy."
easy walljump 4Head
This sums up speedrunner's mentality in a nutshell.
Pogyo is a great example of how you have to understand the full history of someone to know who they are, rather than just going off of their positive achievements.
Achievements alone, you’d think he is an impressive and hardworking person. And that’s probably true. However, you wouldn’t know they are incredibly petty and immature until you learn the history of the Small Only/Low%/Low% (Small Only) category naming drama.
thank you for not bothering to explain the entire lineage of mario games before getting into the actual subject. big ups.
Awesome video!!! 1 hour full of SMW, what a treat! 🎉
Surprising to hear some Mazinger in the background music, lol
Another banger video. Thanks! Re the drama, all I gotta say is act like a child, get treated like a child.
Oh man, i dont even run this game or follow it much, but hearing about pogyo nuking all his own records over the category rename pissed me off so much 💀
one of my fave storster uploads
this catagory seems very cool & neato, thank you for the upload!
Should have called it "Smol plumber%"
Honestly, great job once again with this history. I'm sure you're gonna start backuping all future WRs just in case 😅
Your post helped me come out, thank you Storster!
makes me really happy to read comments like this, appreciate you
While what Pogyo did is unbelievably petty and frustrating, it's very good that he seems to have grown up and got a hold of himself over those five years.
Low% is a dumb name for a category. The point of naming a category is to give a brief overview of the goal/restrictions, thats literally all its supposed to do.
It's really not important, but I dont see this as a true low%.
Imo (seriously opinion and no authority on the subject) if this was an actual low% run, anyone who would use less items and enemies (of course without powerups and lowest amount of exits) to beat the game should have the record, even if it's slower, since they interacted with less tools/treasures provided by the game and in spirit would have a lower %. So if I spent the next 48 hours doing a run, but use 1 less item somehow, I would have the new record with 48 hours by typical low% rules.
It's close to how games with actual % completion do it, if you pick up less items in your inv it counts as a lower % even if the game save file doesnt count the item toward %. Like in the Zelda runs! Picking up rupees count toward the category completion rules, less is better, but they dont affect your save file % at all. so yea coins should count toward items too in my made up bs.
I only bring this up because low% is kinda specific, but I dont see them keeping track of that sort of thing in this run; they use and ignore items depending on strats and finish time is the only thing that determines the record, so low% just doesnt describe what's going on.
I would call it smol% hehe (super mario, only little)
Good points! In fact I would say that, since exits cleared is the most important stat tracked by the game, 0 Exit is way more like a Low% run than this one is.

new speedrun hisrory video lets fucking GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I know key want to run small only now. Great video and super interesting category.
So I read a comment about voice training (first time viewer). I listened closesly and assumed you were a girl voice training to sound masculine. Went and watched and old video and WOW. Great work 👏
What's wild is yours was the most respectable and straight forward opinion. The mods can't agree on what to call the category? Throw it to a community vote. Granted, you'll have bickering over what names go to vote, but there's easy systems to use for that.

Aa a Doraemon speedrunner, love the random Doraemon theme song in there around 19 minutes in. Also, great vid!

I was half expecting the video to end with Nanafuse also deleting their videos for comedic purposes lol
Is there a '96' Exit Small Only category (or however maximum possible exits can be completed while in small + Yoshi mode) ?
12:23 looks like it predates TH-cam's public release too
The koopa shell trade trick is so cool and creative!

The great War of 2017. Many casualties, and like all other wars that came before and after, the cost was too much
NEW STORSTER LET’S GOOOOOOOOOO
Holy shot amazing video!!!
It should be called Super Mario all only
Glad to hear that every run going forward just swims forward. What about the runs going into the pipe? Did they just stop?
@@iwersonsch5131It is just barely faster with the cape powerup, because you also grab a shell and Mario swims faster while holding an item. No cape categories it is slower to go in the pipe.
@@iwersonsch5131we should split the category for people who feel like going through the pipe even though it's slower
This video is awesome, you go queen. Let the haters hate ❤️🔥
35:00 This exact thing happened in the Donkey Kong 94 speedrunning community, but with timing rules.
Was it an in-game timer vs real time debate, or what other timing concerns are there with that game? I watched some dk94 runs last year and was very impressed by the level of tricks and techniques used in it.
@@friendofjim It was timimg calculation that had to do with the American Super GameBoy which had a CPU that ran faster than the GameBoy, GameBoy Color and Super GameBoy 2.
are there any speedrun category where you play it like it's mario run
You would think it was called (pick a slur)% by that discord drama 😂
Honestly themoment I realized that the song that was playingon the B was the Tenchi Muyo credits theme I as just shcked, I thought nobody knew that game even existed
this is brilliant
Great news honey new storster dropped
funny enough, though I don't run the game, I use some of these strats in randomizers.
Storster is going the way of Thomas Game Docs?
Sounds like a category that would fit smallant.
what I've learned:
ppl indeed do become blind with some imaginary virtual sense of power just cuz they are good at a video game and also childish.
Amazing video and I love your voice ❤️
14:02 An incorrect record is an incorrect record in a place with the purpose of keeping accurate records. That isn't pedantism, that's doing your job.
47:56 What a manchild.
Homicide Geoffrey: Go to Bed!!
I remember watching Dram play low% around 2014. I always though the cloud was a dumb addition to low%, it's a powerup! I even posted a no cloud strategy for that level th-cam.com/video/0maEOtXj8H4/w-d-xo.html . Good times!
Thats so stupid deleting world record runs because of a side category name being changed to something that made more sense
Getting to the end of the video, I'm trying to think of small only moves she hasn't really talked about that migjt make the run more optimized AND THEN SHE MENTIONS WALL JUMPS AND I FORGOT THEY WERE A THING IN THIS GAME! I be dumb sometimes. 😂
Is cloud not counted as a powerup? It can be stored... kinda?
Wait does Yoshi count as a powerup but the Lakitu cloud doesn't?
the lakitu cloud does not affect getting damage, unlike yoshi
They should have called the category to "Low % 15 Exit Small Only except for Lakitu but not Yoshi" satisfy everyone
Lakitu clouds are more just funny platforms you can control
0:39 🤓Erm actually some coins are consitored powerups in the game's code
Is using baby Yoshi in star world 2 a powerup?
The run is small only. By that definition, small Mario sitting on Yoshi is still small Mario. Why is sitting on Yoshi not allowed but holding a baby Yoshi allowed when both are being done by small Mario.
If you consider using Yoshi of any kind to "power" up Mario to be able to do things he can not do on his own, then why allow baby Yoshi as that allows Mario to move faster in the water.
So this run is tough to name. Calling it small only, means both Yoshis (normal and baby) are allowed as the only qualifier is small Mario.
However if you call this a no powerup run, then it's up to the community to define what a powerup is. Of cause items that directly changer Mario's state (Shroom, Flower, Feather and Star) are all banned. But what about Yoshi and baby Yoshi? Neither directly change Mario's state but both allow Mario to do things he otherwise could not do without them. The community calling both or neither powerups makes sense, as the community makes the rules for each challenge run. The issue however, is when one of the two (Yoshi or baby Yoshi) is considered a powerup by the community but the other is not. If you consider baby Yoshi to be like a shell that's fine but then you have the ability to eat enemies. Not at all useful in the run but it is a thing you technically could do.
What does every one think about this?
Also as an aside, in a no powerup run, stars are banned but in a small only run stars are allowed. For the obvious reason, stars do not change Mario's size but they are a temporary powerup.
So Sorster's definition (I assume this is the community's definition) of a no powerup run is a little off. It should be a "no permanent powerup" run. Assuming permanent is defined as until hit by an enemy, dying or collecting the opposing stage 2 powerup (flower vs feather).
A complicated run to define in the run name, so the community just got lazy and called in "small Mario" and defined what that means in the run rules. As it's not obviously clear what all the run restrictions are in the run name itself.
Probably cause Yoshi is a free damage boost and baby Yoshi isn’t
Moving faster in water isn't exclusive to Baby Yoshi, though? That's like saying picking up shells and keys should be banned
@@MizunoKetsuban You can also eat enemies with baby Yoshi. Not sure if the 5th one counts if you never hop on the fully grown Yoshi.
The facts are baby Yoshi is a grey area unlike shells which are not and allowed. The community has decided to allow baby Yoshi.
woah
awesome video
I dont quite understand why pogyo(and others) cared so much about the label. I mean, surely there was a reason. Right?
8:17 Did somebody say yoga?
