Not even an extra-long stream is enough to get me through Toad's Midway Madness. Nope - instead, I have every faint glimmer of hope brutally extinguished in front of my very eyes.
Made it to Turn 15 a couple times though, which was alright.
Mario Party 4 No Minigame Wins Rules:
1. I am not allowed to win end-of-turn minigames.
2. For Coin Minigames (Paratrooper Plunge, Money Belts, and Pair-a-sailing) I am allowed to earn coins, so long as I'm not the player or on the team that earned *the most* coins. Ties for 1st place are not allowed unless every player obtains the same score, in which case the minigame is considered a "draw" and the run can continue.
(This reflects how Coin Minigames work in Mini-game Mode activities that track wins. The "no inputs" rule has been abandoned.)
3. I am not allowed to win/survive any minigames involving Bowser, and must specifically be the loser in every one I play. This includes all three Bowser Space minigames and the two special minigames exclusive to the Bowser's Gnarly Party board.
4. I am not allowed to get or tie for 1st place in a Battle minigame. I am allowed to get 2nd place, though.
5. Reversal of Fortune is not a minigame and I may take advantage of it as I please.
6. Similarly, all board events - including the Lottery Shop, coin-awarding Happening Space sequences, and Mini-sized item and coin-awarding games - do not count as minigames for the purposes of this run, and I can enjoy them as I see fit.
7. If I win a minigame I must reset the board entirely, starting from Turn 1.
(I refer to this happening as a "death".)
8. No turn resets. Boards will be played without mid-match save files
(Allowing turn resets would make the challenge way too easy.)
9. I am allowed to successfully finish the minigames Goomba's Chip Flip, Archeologuess, Bowser Bop, Mystic Match 'Em, Kareening Koopas, and The Final Battle!, as the game does not declare Luigi a winner when these minigames are completed.
(Also, if I couldn't make it past these minigames, the challenge would not be completable.)
