::A 9-day run is possible in the original, it's just much more difficult since you have 5 less minutes per day. But I have a bigger point to make. These challenge run articles try to strike a difficult balance between being documentations of what's possible and being strategy guides. The [[5 day run]] article is mostly about documentation, while the [[Zero death challenge]] article is much more of a guide. I think the guides are important, as these runs can be fun and interesting, but often the top-level challenge runs can become too difficult to allow for practical guides for normal players. This is why I have an alternative proposal: document alternative versions of challenge runs in the same article. So this article would document how to complete the game in 10 days and 9 days, and perhaps the 7-day run could be combined into this article too, as it's an alternate way to complete the game in the fewest days. ''Pikmin 2''{{'s}} low-day run article would document how to do it in 8 days, 7 days, 6 days, and 5 days, and could also document the fastest ways to pay off the debt. And the low-Pikmin-count articles would document all the different configurations of the challenge you could use. Doing this would require renaming all the articles, and would probably introduce some messy-looking if-statements into the guides. But I think it's the best way moving forward to document these challenge runs, as there isn't just a single version of each challenge, there are multiple depending on what tricks and constraints you want to use. — [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 19:47, June 17, 2022 (EDT) | ::A 9-day run is possible in the original, it's just much more difficult since you have 5 less minutes per day.
