Is Mario's Keep (a Super Mario Bros. ROM Hack) TAS'es allowed to be submitted?

I've TASed that ROM hack myself, and it isn't a particularly interesting hack to TAS. The Hard Relay Mario TAS shows off almost all of the glitches used in my Mario's Keep TAS.

Yeah but I am not really good at taking and I personally had fun tasing the game.

On the type of hack it is it would have to beat: [2627] NES Hard Relay Mario by HappyLee in 08:14.95 (The TAS that DaSmileKat is referring to in their post)

I am not talking about hard relay Mario, I am talking about Mario’s keep. Google it.

Yes, I know it's another hack. I'm (and DaSmileKat for that matter) just letting you know what it has to beat.

Any hack can be submitted, but they're judged much more strictly than normal games. The hack itself has to be high quality and, ideally, show off significantly different content compared to other published runs of the base game (and any published hacks of it). Even if the TAS is well made and tightly optimized, it might be rejected just because the hack itself isn't suitable for the site. We have both Hard Relay Mario (linked earlier) and Extra Mario Bros published already, as well as Air and Air 2 in the past. I personally feel like another SMB1 hack is a hard sell, but you are still free to submit if you think you can make a solid case for it. Just be warned that the audience may not agree.
