Ice Climber time. This movie is as fast as possible and I complete all 32 mountains. However, I only catch the bird at the very last mountain to get a "nicer ending" of it. Else it would go on forever.
I do this because the bonus stages is not only boring but very repetitive and takes time, about 10 more minutes if I should catch the bird on every stage. I have that version too but personally I think that is kinda boring.
I also tries to avoid as much points as possible since they take some time to count down at the end of every mountain. Of course I can´t avoid all points since I had to kill some birds, and I had to smash blocks along my way up. Also to grab some vegetables at the start of the bonus stage were the fastest route..
So here it is, with only 1 bird catched (the last).
As fast as possible.
No damage taken.

Bisqwit: Given the fact that Ice Climber is boring no matter whether it catches the bird or not, I'm rejecting this movie in favor of the complete version.

I think it is important to catch the bird. I can see the advantage in skipping the bonus vegetables, but without grabbing the bird it's like only doing half the stage. Here's a sample of the first two mountains with the bird catching included: http://www.feitclub.com/icetest.zip

Well.. I'll simply submit the other version aswell, even though I concider it to be boring.
