Sweetnumb's Notes

100% Map Completion, aka. Mapo is a category with the purpose of turning all the existing map tiles in pink. This can be made by passing by all the map map tiles with the exception of boss rooms, whose are automatically turned pink on the exit. Plus, an invisible map in Green Brinstar Fireflea Room, for which its collection or not has to be decided by the community *. All this makes a total of 1243 (only counting pink tiles) or 1244 (the set of pink tiles together with 1 especially conveniently accessible permanently black tile), respectively, map squares.


Items

This category allows to take as many items as you want to complete the game and turn all map tiles in pink. As you have to travel through every room in the game, the penalty time to go pick up e-tank is slightly lower than in any%. Thereby, runners usually pick up at least 7 tanks to allow stand-up glitch. Another reason to pick up extra items is to either refill you're energy, or avoid later farm which would cost more time.
