Looking at the pictures I can say that the actual GOAL doesn't necessarily lead to a star or a moon. The most esoteric of all sane goals for SM - Reverse Boss Order - provides the MOST IMPOSSIBLE result of all gameplay SM goals (the Glitched goal is another matter). And many people think a star shall be moved to SM RBO.
Also, technical merit of the run is not the same as how speed-oriented it is. It's about how much EFFORT was put into it in ALL tech aspects, pace is mostly an entertainment vaule. Good Playarounds aren't just hard to invent entertainment-wise, they are also tough to implement technically. Needless to say a Playaround, belonging to Superplay tier according to your pics, may be perfectly star-worthy.
I'm surprised so many people keep refering to Speedrun/Superplay devision which is the most esoteric idea to apply to TASVideos I can think of.
PS: will read more carefully now.
EDIT:
I've read the ideas. You guys seem to forget what stars actually are intended to mean:
Wiki: StarmanGuidelines
Thread #12998: Request for Starmen
Showing THEMOSTAWESOMEWOWSUPERB!!!11 (Stars) runs we show the face of TASing. Setting Moons we hint users what to watch after they got the idea, the movies that are still impressive overall. Regular movies are pretty solid, but have some snags that destroy the impression the good sides of a game create. Vault - movies just for the sake of appearance. Demo - esoteric goals, notable achievements still not blowing entertainment-wise, probably Glitched btranches.
My system is all about the overall look and the merit the movie showcases the TAS art. Say,
how much is a movie star-worthy, with several gradations of the answer.
EDIT 2:
The guidelines say we must choose only one game from a franchise if all of them are rather similar and perfected. But what tier to put the other candidates from the same franchise? Moons? Then we would still have Moons filled with Sonics and Marios.
EDIT 3:
To solve the above problem we need to IGNORE ratings of the other franchise mates of a starred run. Mooning them is still abusive for me. It's only possible if those runs feature different TAS aspects, one being more impressive than the other - then they may have a star and a moon within a franchise per platform. Or if the runs are really of different types.
And if the neighbour game run isn't that unique, it must remain in Regular tier, even though having 8+ ratings.
Also suggestion: Starring superb runs can inspire TASers if a star would add score for a run (double it?)
