A '''unique A press''' refers to a single circumstance under which the A button must be pressed during a run. This circumstance may occur multiple times, leading to multiple A presses; if a workaround is found for the unique A press, all of those individual A presses may be saved. | A '''unique A press''' refers to a single circumstance under which the A button must be pressed during a run.

Billy, the world record holder for Stomp on the Thwomp originally planned to get it in 8xA, where the A presses not included being the pole jump at the beginning, which can be solved by using knockback from a bob-omb which had been done in previous stars and would save A press #23, a failed dive onto one of the rotating blocks which would save A press #24, and a triple jump wall kick instead of two sideflip wall kicks which would replace A presses #26-29 with 3 other A presses. | ||

All of the improvements made in the Bowser in the Sky 1x video can be replicated in 6.5 to get BitS reds down to 2.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30OZ7VTN4xo <nowiki>" BitS: Clear, no Reds, 1xA [RTA] "</nowiki>]</ref> The Chuckya Wrong Throw setup is also repeatable, meaning you can do it however many times you want. This leaves the final count for BitS to likely be 1 for both reds and no reds. | ||
