Walkthrough

Title(-1,-1)
Because of different emulator, I get 1 lag frames.
1-1(1,0)
Choose another way, and save 1 lag frames.(it's not the reason of emulator)
1-2(10,10)
A better boss fight. And keeping the fastest speed when catch the bubble, meet the bird face as fast as possible.
1-3(-1,9)
Bad luck. The first enemy which I caught moved 1 frame later.
4-1 3-1(0,9)
Nothing.
5-1(11,20)
9 frames in better action, and 2 frames in boss fight.
5-2(71,91)
Max speed jump on vine and other manipulate(82 frames) help me touch the frames rule.
Birdo fire eggs or fireball at 64, 128, 192 in 0x000010 frames rule address. She fire the first egg at 64 in this movie.
I press start in boss for keeping Birdo on the rightmost.
5-3(10,101)
Better jump on ladder.
7-1(143,244)
I choose princess Peach. Because Peach has a higher jump speed than Luigi, and only slower in boss fight. I think even use Luigi too, it still can be saved more than 100 frames.
Before take the rocket, Peach is 6 frames slower than Luigi(in my Luigi test, this number is more than 10 frames).
But after the rocket, Peach is only 1 frames slower. I don't know why this 1 frames happened.
Before boss fight, I have saved 165 frames, and only lose 22 frames in boss fight.
7-2(20,264)
I have tried my best and saved 48 frames(50 frames-rule frames and 2 lag frames) before the final boss, though I touch the vegetables' 256-frames-rule, but I fail to touch the final boss Wart's frames rule line, need the last 20 frames. Only when he spit the bubbles I can hit him only once.
need 20 more frames
So I have to cost some frames to against lags. Luckily, I catch the vegetable at last few frames.

So does this mean, now that Peach is used in 7-1, that Peach is no longer the sub-optimal character and Mario is now?
If you've watched the warpless run you'll know that he's always been sub-optimal except in 1 level. Also I'm glad some people knew my comment was a joke. I actually did vote yes because this is an amazing improvement for a game like this.

I think it's funny how you used literally every single character except for Mario himself. You know, the face of the franchise.
It kinds of makes sense, though, since Mario is the all-around player -- average at everything. That makes it likely that, in every level, there's a better choice than Mario, unless the level is so well-rounded that any time saved by the specialist character's strengths are undone by the time lost to their weaknesses.

So anyone up for a "Mario-only" run?
I am! I beat the game, warpless, using only Mario just to see a 20 over Mario at the end. It makes 4-3 and 6-3 a lot longer, and 5-1 was a nightmare, having to jump from Trouter to Trouter with Mario's wimpy jumping.

http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/45223034431026065 With Wart glitch, I improved my published run 182 frames. This glitch has been found by andrewg in nes version, Post #222666. Too bad I know it a little late. For this glitch working, I can't use the 6th vegetable hit Wart at first time, must wait 1 frame. Then wait for 96 frames and hit Wart by the 7th vegetable.

That's honestly fine. If there's more to iron out that you can spot you might as well do it. Just submit the improvement and make it go through the process of judgement again.
