feos: Hello BlueMania X and welcome to TASVideos!
Unfortunately, there are 2 issues with your submission.
Number one is optimization. As others mentioned in the thread and I demonstrated in my test movie, this run is missing basic optimization techniques like jumping off platforms to gain higher downward velocity and arrive to the bottom sooner. In Super Mario Bros it's also faster to accelerate by jumping and turning on specific frames. We require speed oriented movies to be technically good, which means it should not be easily improvable by large amounts of time, and all known techniques should be used. To learn more about TASing techniques and all the other relevant aspects, check out our TASingGuide!
The second problem is the category choice. "Glitchless" can't go to the Standard class unless Major Skip Glitch is the only glitch in the game. Sometimes a movie in the Standard class may contain speed/entertainment tradeoffs, but avoiding all glitches does not necessarily make the movie more entertaining, however it becomes significantly slower. It's too different from the fastest completion goal, but not in a good way, as the votes in the submission thread show. Which is why this run can't go to Moons either.
I have to reject this submission. Better luck next time!
