For providing us all with this excellent leaderboard filled with solid runs from superb runners, I want to personally say thanks. You put a lot of time and effort into making this a thing and you deserve all the love. I appreciate this and I appreciate you. Keep up the good work, Laseki.
Backing this up, glad to see X3 is back on the speedrunning website.
Hopefully MMX1 returns too, as well as X2.
If only there were reasonable people that moderated those games -_-
What's going to happen to the Low% (Except for Boots) Buster Only All Bosses run I had ready to submit? This is ridiculous.
I'm taking over as sole moderator of the Mega Man X3 leaderboard on SR.com. I will set everything up and shoulder the burden of any and all shade that may come as a result, as I think it's worth it if it means we all have more options as to where to submit and more exposure for the games we love.
It's happening. You guys don't have to submit your times if you really don't want to, but I prefer having working leaderboards on both sites. The more exposure these games get, the more people we'll have trying to do runs and the more friends we'll make. There's no downside.
The MM/X community's distaste for this website is childish and immature. This site is more functional, more fair, and more easily accessible for the most amount of people. Push your elitism aside and let someone else do the work, it's not that hard.
There's absolutely no reason to be crying about speedrun.com in 2017. This nonsense has been going on for nearly 4 years now, and it's honestly laughable that the MM/X community is STILL, after all this time, as, if not more, childish than they were when this all started. Let crisco take over and port the board to a better site with a better interface, less drama, and more outreach, while you can all circlejerk over your memesite.
From what I understand, X1 and X2 are the only dead boards at the moment. X3, X4, X5, X6, X7, and X8 all have runs on their boards and you can likely submit successfully to any of them at any time. One of the mods for the X1 board has recently posted in this thread; his name is Akiteru. You could ask him to get those boards up and running. If he doesn't want to, I'd be glad to take over the responsibility. I think it'd be great to have the whole X series on here.
I wish i never remade these in the first place tbh lol Lost a friend over it.
In my opinion, if someone is willing to destroy a friendship over speedrun times then they are not a good friend, nor a good person. I know from personal experience, seeing as how they did the same thing with me. It sucks, but some people are just bad people and you're better off not associating with them.
As far as X1/X2, I'd love that. Would be willing to help out in any way I could, but it's more likely than not that the current mods are just going to squat the boards and leave them with no changes than promote people who would port and maintain things.
Awesome, having somewhere to put my times might end up getting me to run X3 as well, maybe when I get acceptable times in X1/X2 first though.
