Decent run, lost 25 to a bizarre menuing error in TNT. Will probably go for sub 33 with 2nd Blimp HQ CSS when my concentration is primarily in hundo overall.

The route for both full-game and episode runs in hundo have now been finalized in my mind and they are very different between each other because of how ridiculously easy Sly/Bentley is in full-game due to help from Music Box and Lightning Spin gadgets. Still, because this is ep 8 there will always be this one bottle that can change pick-up positions from run to run in both full-game (bottle 9) and IE runs (bottle 30) based on how well you play, what guard movement RNG you'll get and which fan cycle you can make in Sly/Bentley.

In ep runs I estimated timelosses vs any% with this route and with optimal play to be following:
Blimp HQ: 9 seconds
TNT: 22 seconds
Sly/Bentley: 49 seconds
Bentley/Murray: 0 seconds
Murray/Sly: 9 seconds
= 1:29 in total

Same for full-game:
Blimp HQ: 4 seconds
TNT: 7 seconds
Sly/Bentley: 41 seconds
Bentley/Murray: 0 seconds
Murray/Sly: 24 seconds.
= 1:16 in total

Episode runs could lose less to full-game vs any% but that would require adding intentional bottles to Murray/Sly which will lead to unrealistic timewindows for making the fan cycle. This isn't an issue in full-game due to Turnbuckle.

Full-game split names:
(1) Blimp HQ
(7) Charged TNT Run
(25) Sly/Bentley Conspire
(26) Bentley/Murray Team Up
(7-2-5) Murray/Sly Tag Team


Run highlights:
-Made the earliest inducer cycle I've ever seen in Blimp HQ. Luck was involved though.
-Completely obliterated Clock-La in Gunner and beat the earlier community gold by 5.9 seconds.
