2	Beat the game using as few individual captures as possible and as fast as possible.
3	Least captures has higher priority than time.	For example, a 4 hour run with 15 captures is better than a 2 hour run with 16 captures.
4	Captures are anything that appear on the capture list in game.	They can be viewed in game by pressing "-" then "y" to go to the lists.	Full list here.
5	Jumping into a Pylon with an already captured NPC counts as an additional capture.	For example, jumping into the final pylon with Bowser, or jumping into spark pylon 6 in bowsers kingdom with pokio.
6	Timing starts on File Select and ends when you shoot out of the electric wire in the escape sequence.
