Nothing particularly notable about this star. Tried out a few endings, this one seemed fastest.

Thanks to SR for TASing the bee manipulation, it turned out really fast. They also saved a few seconds at the beginning, but I didnt feel like redoing the rest of the star since there are still so many underexplored stars left.

This video showcases a setup for the first red coin in Final Tragedys red coin star, which was previously TASed by sm64expert (https://youtu.be/TGOG1aS5IYY ). Thanks to mc redstoner (https://youtu.be/xLveYGlwXNc ) for bringing this to my attention.
Instructions:
- Start walking forward.
- Using a pause buffer, turn right for 2 frames.
- Using jumpkicks to conserve your angle, make your way to the back corner of the doorframe.
- Turn the camera back to where it started.
- Jump.
- As youre landing, start holding right (4 frame window).
- Doublejump and pause on the 6th frame *[frame-perfect].*
- Hold forward, then unpause with A.
- Pause again on the frame before landing *[frame-perfect].*
- Hold left, then unpause and immediately press C-left and A *[frame-perfect].*
- Pause on the last frame before hitting the corner *[frame-perfect].*
- Hold slightly upleft *[roughly 5° range],* then press A (3+ frame window).
- Release the joystick and press C-right (not precise).
- At the peak of your wallkick, flick right and pause (not precise).
- Hold forward, then unpause and press C-right and A (3+ frame window).
- Just before hitting the ground, groundpound (3+ frame window, 4+ if your other inputs were excellent).

Too hard for me to try this RTA so I did it with savestates and at 60% speed. This only differs from drunkrazys route between 1:12 and 2:37, and even there it is based on his 182 star route.
Doesnt seem worth.")

Addendum: https://youtu.be/5NOrXHWabTE
I added this combo into my 115 star route because there are many fast stars that Im less confident in. When actually executing the combo, it was faster than I expected, so I decided to make an idealrun of it to analyze whether it could be implemented into even a WR-level 115 star run.
Obviously since this was done with frame advance and savestates, it is likely infeasible to match. Still, if a top-level runner could reliably do this combo in just over 4 minutes, it might just make the cut. Remember that a 100c combo collects 2 stars while only having 1 reentry rather than 2.")

This run was exactly what I had hoped my first run might optimistically be: Multiple personal bests, keeping it together until the end, and a roughly 11 hour time.
I kind of had to do this since my first run had a kind of choppy recording that failed to process after uploading (maybe I closed the upload too early).
Six players have previously completed the Scrubs Challenge, which consisted of Star Revenges 1-8, but without SR0 and with only one act of SR2.
Additionally, all except KingToad64 (https://youtu.be/1dX0VKuadmM ) ran on a mix of latest and original Star Revenges, rather than settling for one or the other.

Better, more refined strat by nobori56: https://youtu.be/IuN8k9yuans
Pretty inconsistent, Id maybe get this about 5-10% of the time. The setup can certainly be refined, this is mostly just a proof of concept.
Yesterday, Bubzias chat saw the topic of 70 star CCC, and we concluded that it would be ridiculously infeasible if the run forcibly died the instant a coin is touched (Remember that in Blindfolded, you cant see whether youre in a slightly wrong position and about to touch a coin).
In addition, there are only 81 theoretically possible and only 72-77 RTA-viable stars, and the additional restriction of blindfolded gameplay would most likely put the challenge completely off-limits.
So instead, we came up with CCC*, with the C* meaning coinscoreless: Dont save a nonzero coin score, and you must save at 70 stars.
This means that a runner could hear that they accidentally collected a coin and simply exit the course, or they could reset the game if they hear a coin count up after collecting a star.
This variation also unlocks up to 6 red coin stars in side courses (BitDW, BitFS, WC, MC, VC, SA). However, collecting all 8 red coins in TotWC without a wingcap refill seems far off-limits for Blindfolded, and so the variation only adds 5 extra stars in practice.
Heres a spreadsheet estimating how much difficulty the CCC* challenge adds for each star in the game, excluding 100c stars for obvious reasons:
