Pro tip: it's not ABC. What is he doing? I can't read japanese.
EDIT: nvm it's a "all jumps prohibited" run. Meh it's not so entertaining imo. The TAS is pretty bad too :v
EDIT2: It could be pretty useful to watch some stuff on Nicovideo. We all probably searched for some interesting stuff in ABC but our group didn't do it on Nicovideo. How do you say A button challenge in japanese? ;-;
So... how many stars could you collect without pressing the a button at all? even in the castle sections.
That is pretty generic.
If you mean from power-on new file then it's... 48 stars. You'd be stuck at Bowser in the Fire Sea.
What's stopping 0 presses for that stage?
Also what other stars in castle prevent 70 star 0 A button?
For first question: you can't get in the wired room thing. I mean, you normally should leave the pole to get in there. To jump off the pole you need to press A. And no, leaving by pressing Z is not enough. Glitch pole grab requires AT LEAST to hold A (Even though we still aren't sure if Mario can be in a state where he can hang up on wire without pressing A) (Yes, the actual pole glitch is a wire grab glitch)
For second question: We need another 0x star. We'd be at 69 stars if we could get past BitFS pole without pressing A.
Full list of stars/movements that are not 0x and could fix this problem (Bolded the ones I feel like they could happen) (Listed by number of A presses):
*DDD: 100 coins (0.5x)
*WF: To the Top of the Fortress (No Owl) (1x)
*BoB: Mario Wings to the Sky (1x)
*Pressing the Invisible Cap Switch (1x)
*Getting to the second floor of BBH (1x)
*BBH: Ride Big Boo's Merry-Go-Round (1x)
Reason:

*HMC: A-Maze-ing Emergency Exit (1x)
*HMC: 100 Coins (1x)
Reason (I got very closer after I made this video):

*HMC: Elevate for 8 Red Coins (1x)
*LLL: Hot-Foot-It into the Volcano (1x)
Reason:
Link to video
*SSL: Inside the Ancient Pyramid (1x)
*SSL: Pyramid Puzzle (1x)
*JRB: Treasure of the Ocean Cave (1x)
*JRB: Blast to the Stone Pillar (1x)
*JRB: Through the Jet Stream (1x)
Reason: With the metal cap you maybe could get below the star and get it when it runs out.
*JRB: Red Coins on the Ship Afloat (1x)
*The Princess's Secret Slide (Not sub 21) (1x)
*SL: Snowman's Big Head (1x)
*WDW: Top O' the Town (1x)
*Entering TTC (1x)
*Entering RR (1x)
*Entering WMotR and collect his star (1x first, 2.5x second)
*LLL: Elevator Tour in the Volcano (2x)
*JRB: 100 coins (2x)
*DDD: Pole-Jumping for Red Coins (2x)
*HMC: Watch for Rolling Rocks (2x)

You mean Hyperspeed ZB? You can't recover from a ZB by pressing A.
You mean without? What about using dives instead of ZB, does it only work with ZB?
Yeah whatever, I'm bad at prepositions.
You build speed by doing dives, but you stop at exactly 52.026969909667969 speed.
Weird number... just tested now.
EDIT: It stops in-between 52 and 52.05 it seems, depending on how you approach it.
By "stop" I mean that in the next DRs the speed will be the same.
Just fixed the list. JRB 100 coins is actually 2x and the insane trick possibility would reduce it to 1x so it's another thing.
Isn't this already known, by storing a jump and riding the staircase up?
*LLL: Hot-Foot-It into the Volcano (1x)
The problem is getting enough height off the lava, right? Is it possible to store a jump from the lava on the lower elevator and carry it to where it does some good?
Trying 127.0.0.1...

Second floor, not first.

What lower elevator? What do you mean with "where it does some good"?
Even if you could store it on the elevator, what could we do?
Nobody has a clue on how to get past it at the moment.
It just seems a pretty tall pole which you HAVE to grab... I think we need something new for this, probably the glitches we know so far are not enough. If only there was a way to build vertical speed while on the ground...
