Having thought about it, "NGJ", while providing a good technical explanation of what glitches aren't allowed in the run, doesn't provide any good explanation for anyone who happens upon the name itself. I mean, if I tell you that the category is called "No glitched jobs", unless you're familiar with FF3, you have no idea what the run is like from the name.

I think that "any% (warpless)" (or something along those lines) is a much better name, because it immediately conveys the contents of the run. If you tell a person the name of the category, they immediately get an idea of what the run is like.

Of course, I'd like to hear what other people think about this, but I really think that this will make explaining the category easier.

(with the FF relay coming up, if we don't change the names, I won't be able to count the number of times people will ask what glitched jobs change / do, when all that's really important to know is that the category doesn't involve warps)

http://imgur.com/a/RxPCa As you can see here, the custom trophies seem to look just fine in the "edit theme" page. However, when it comes to the boards themselves, they don't load :P I was wondering if perhaps there's something I was doing wrong with the image formatting or something (the trophies are all 16x15 and in .png format). On the FF1 board, the custom trophies we had have stopped displaying as well, even though they were fine before.

Any help with this would be appreciated ;)

At this point in time, we're allowing all PC versions of YS1 on these boards. I have a few problems with this.

à priori, the 2001 release is the fastest version, with justified timesaves, as well as a good 30s that remain unexplained. Now, these are PC games, so you'd think they'd be easy to acquire and run, so it shouldn't really be that much of a hassle to ask someone to switch to the fastest version. However, the complete version is simply unplayable on any version of windows past XP, my machine screams and spits out a garbled mess of cyan and magenta as soon as I run the game. So at this point, to run the fastest version of the game, I'd have to either use a virtual machine, or have a second, much older pc that I'd capture. Both of those options seem quite odd, when there's a perfectly acceptable, and incredibly easy to acquire version of the game available on steam. It just seems odd to me that we'd allow 1 time on the leaderboards stick out like a sore thumb, when most people that will come to the game won't have access to the version that was used, and will have to settle for a slower (albeit not by much, but it's a lot once you get up there) version.

And it's not like this is some ploy to bump my time up, or to try and disqualify the WR, since korzic still has the fastest C+ time, and we'd simply have that time on top.

This is something that's bothered me a bit for a while, and I've had to rewrite this post a few times to not come off as a dick, but I had to spark the discussion at some point. If we can come to a consensus on no longer allowing submissions on "archaic" versions (which to be fair is extremely unlikely, seeing as no one will learn the game on the complete version), I think the leaderboards would be fairer, and better of as whole.

I'd like to close this off by saying I'm still open to discussion on this matter, and that this is more the beginning of a discussion I'd like to have, rather than some ultimatum, or decisive rant I'd like to impose.

So, I'm pretty much exclusively an rpg runner, so I decided to try and find an rpg to learn for the 12 hour challenge. These games tend to be long, which is problematic. As long as the game has a good set of notes, and is short enough to be learned in 12 hours, then that would be a good idea. Snes/ps1 era rpgs would be preferred, but any ideas are welcome, not like I have many myself :P

So, I've routed "Shin Megami Tensei: Persona" (the psp remake of persona 1), and plan to start running the game sometime soon. However, the game does not seem to be listed on the site ( I haven't found any runs of it elsewhere either). I was just wondering how one would go about creating a new game entry, or if a mod could take care of the problem. Thanks in advance.
