I understand that, but given that there aren't many active runners, I don't think the filter would do much at the moment since it'll only show PBs and 90's Godzilla is currently the bets choice for that (that I've finished testing anyway). It being a small game I don't mind not getting the change tho, I just wanted an excuse to get other monsters ran after I do it. (Particularly Mothra/Rodan/Ghidora).

I think the filter would be great for all challenges though, since all monsters would have to complete the same challenges, none of them have a immediate disadvantage.

I do think the profile thing needs to be removed though. It prevents testing with new monsters (regardless if the result ends with 90s still being the fastest), but doesn't really have much use that I've found outside of flooding the number of profiles I have when I do attempts.

I'm not the most savvy with this site, would that allow separate runs from one runner? Say to compare a Ghidorah run against the current 90's standard. Pretty sure a filter would just show their best run on the board no matter the monster.

Also posting the videos for the two runs I recorded yesterday.

So what I've confirmed, and will be uploading later once I've gotten the chance.

-Godzilla 90's stages remain the same, I discovered this on stream previously but have confirmed it again.

-King Ghidora, an unlockable character, has different stages but is slower due to challenges based on destruction of the cities being its challenges, both being around 3 minutes long.

Ghidora's situation is similar to Godzilla 2000's stages having a 3 minute long challenge as well. The fights themselves could have an impact on timing as well as certain monsters are easier than others depending on who you fight with. Examples being that both mecha godzilla and mecha king ghidora are fairly quick fights with Ghidorah.

I don't think using the same profile effects anything, nothing purchasable affects gameplay past unlocking characters to use in vs and story. In terms of any%, separating by monster might be worth it simply due to the fact some have guaranteed time loss compared to others simply based on the challenge of their action mode stages.

I'll try getting the King Ghidora and Godzilla 00's runs I recorded posted by tomorrow.

Alright, I'll do some tests with it this weekend and post them. See how it works out.

Virginia, USARuSyxx4 years ago

Is there a specific reason why a new profile is required for a run? I want to test some of the unlockable characters such as Mothra and others in any% and was curious about the decision.

I'll ask Catastrophic if anyones submitted for the new board yet, but I agree with the categories.

I'd say for all levels, probably something more along the lines Any% Warps/No Warps.

Not sure how many other categories, though I imagine at least one category including the DLC would be enjoyable, haven't played DLC yet myself.

This was my first time attending a speedrun event and I can't explain enough how helpful and welcoming everyone was. I went to this event only knowing who a few of the attendees were, and left with many new friends that I look forward to hopefully hanging out with again in the future. It was easily one of the best events I've attended in general.

Thoughts: *With this being my first event, I can't comment on the difference between having stream 1/2 in the same room vs different rooms, but I do want to echo some of the comments mentioned previously. It was sometimes really hard to not be distracted by the noise from different runs when one was more exciting than the other. A solid example being the $20% Yakuza run which is where I noticed it the most. (Granted in retrospect had I known what it was I'd have been watching it rather than stream 1, but that's a bit irrelevant here) It was very hard to keep up with what was happening because everything going on in stream 2 at the time was loud and distracting. Secondarily, while I did love the street boyz, I think after all the pop offs on just the first day next to stream 1 that it should have been relocated earlier to avoid distraction as well.

I loved the glitch showcases, but would like to really recommend that the volume is balanced better. There were several that I couldn't hear the commentary of while sitting in the crowd and also while watching the stream from the hotel TV.

Karoake was fantastic and should be advertised earlier than the day of, easily one of my highlights from the event. (Even if we did find out we were violating some hotel rules with the food/drinks, which can hopefully be better articulated next year).

Arcade room - Pros: I spent more time than I'm willing to admit on the pinball and jubeat machines, and would love to see even more options/variety of them next year. Cons: The lack of directions on how to change games or how to obtain a Jubeat card (egame card?) seemed like it could have been an easy fix. I know there was a sheet handed out from the desk when you bought one from the website, but I only discovered you could buy a card from the website after another attendee noticed me trying to figure it out. Perhaps some kind of posting?

Also just as a suggestion, perhaps make the projection of the stream can be made an official part of the arcade room? I know someone else set it up of their own will but it helped make the arcade room feel more attached to the event since you could watch runs as you were playing.

Tournament Room: Pros: For a regular attendee, this was a great treat since I got to meet and compete with so many people and Feasel did a great job organizing things. I would love to see a full team to help support it next time. Cons: It wasn't uncommon for the tournaments I signed up for to have multiple people unable to make it due to sign ups being posted without a scheduled day and finding out people could no longer participate. I think one thing that could be done is require discord/contact info to be included in sign ups from the beginning rather than after its scheduled. Maybe even just have a dedicated server/chat/channel to help distribute information.

PC Room: Its genuinely hard for me to give a positive here because I was only able to get on a PC twice during the week. I wasn't a runner in the event, but would have loved to be able to go in and run the games I do run regularly.

Board Game Room: Was fantastic even if I didn't spend as much time in there as I'd have liked. Just wanted to give a shout out to eTho for bringing such a wide selection of games and of course organizing the MTG sealed event.

All in all the entire event was great, and I can't wait to attend another in the future.
