Yeah, I kinda came from SDA to check Super Mario Galaxy 2 stats, and figured to drop my Wario Land 4 scores here. (Which were done on emulator for an SDA tournament, no slowdowns, savestates or anything.)

I'm still doing Super-Hard though.

I suppose you can expect SMG2 competition from me later on. 0.o

Cool, nice to see some more WL4 stats.  I'd like to try more of Hard and S-Hard myself sometime.

Hope to see your SMG2 stuff, too!  Welcome to the site.

Heh, most WL4 times will have to wait since I'm trying to get SMG2 120 stars so I can start getting Green Stars (I have few of them I know I can get quite the times). I won't prolly post too many SMG2 times before I have an full list.

I'm taking a break though to get times on all WL4 bosses on Hard (Cause I don't have my Easy file).

Is there any difference on bosses (other than time) on different difficulties? Cause if there aren't, couldn't you just play one and then count what your time would've been on the other difficulties?

You know, I was wondering about that too.  I guess someone must have said there was a difference when we added those charts - but I don't know what the differences are, if any.  It'd be worth investigating at some point.

If/when we decide to keep just one difficulty, then playing on any difficulty and counting what you would've gotten sounds fine to me.

After some testing, it appears that the bosses are faster? Not sure on that, but my times would tell that it won't affect too much, possibly even positively.

And now I'm total awe of how was that Spoiled Rotten times done? I managed to kill him off in 14 second (Just enough at S-Hard) but these times beat it by 3-4 more seconds?

Also I have few SMG2 times, but those are pretty much what I got on my second time. I did get an loads better time at Yoshi Star Galaxy Star 2 (Did that cause on my run, I managed to get some 50ish Star Bits on the way for the last hungry Luma I'm missing). I have to experiment with Infinite Fluttering to use the neat trick that drops the time to around 1,10 I think.

Hmm, I could take a closer look at the Hard/S-Hard WL4 bosses then.  Apparently my Spoiled Rotten time didn't change from the difficulty, but I could check out Cractus and Cuckoo Condor; I think I did pretty well on them in Normal.

I don't remember my Spoiled Rotten strategy, though.  At one point I got into the habit of typing out my strategies for records I made (in various games, not just WL4), but it wasn't until after I did that boss...
