I have done some minor ruleset additions and changes so as to better clean up the way that rules are listed on this board.

The most notable addition concerns full video requirement. I edited this for clarification. While we do want to encourage full video whenever the option is available, I added statements to clarify other means to submit a run in absence of video. The only absolute rule change is that video will be required if you claim to have a time that is in the top 3, or else a run is immediately rejected.

All the other general information (the fact that we use IGT, Vegetation Collision being always on, etc) was moved to the Game Rules, whereas Category Rules was kept specific.

Lastly, Comments are enabled. It's been a feature for a while, but I feel that this is a really useful tool to facilitate discussion about particular runs. Please be advised that to mitigate spam, we ask that you please have at least one verified run tied to your account (it can be in any game, but seriously, just go and run CPST and submit that because it's that easy to just tie up on that course)

For context, this is for the ATV Offroad Fury 2 Freestyle board: https://www.speedrun.com/atvof2etc

The way that the Freestyle gamemode works is that each stage has a series of objectives that the player can select. Each level has the same objectives:

  • Hit Every Green Target
  • Hit Every Red Target
  • Bust Ten Different Combos
  • Score Stunt Points (a series of objectives where you try to score a certain number of points within a prescribed time limit and then score as many points as possible before time expires)

There is also an All Objectives category for those who wish to challenge all of the above only for a particular stage.

However, one level, and only one level, does not feature the Hit Every Green Target objective. How do I edit the IL board to hide or remove that category only for this specific level?

Because of how the train cycles work on a regular race, in all Yardley Station courses, the first lap is played differently (and slower) compared to the other courses. The only exception to this is probably Yardley Station Short because that course is so fast that players on the Polaris 500, Havoc Siege (a 1:1 clone of the Pola500 in stats), or Ravage 1000 can just barge through the course without having to worry about the train.

For YSM and YSL, I would suggest adding a First Lap category to reflect the different strategies used in the first lap to avoid the train. By my observations, YSM is more dependent on train strats in the first lap.

(My current YSM run shows such strats)

Does Nintendont count as an emulator for the purpose of the leaderboard?

For those who have not heard of it, it is an application for Wii which allows users to load GCN ISO files from an SD card or USB storage device. Otherwise, the game runs natively.

Since (by my knowledge) the enduro courses are not covered via Pro Career, is it feasible to just run the courses in quick race "Cross-Country Enduro" mode? In-game, there are 15 enduro courses: 5 unique environments, each of which has a short, medium, and long length course.

Last night, on my stream, I attempted such a run, but I have not calculated total IGT. I did include LiveSplit for a real-time metric. Link here:

Can we add a leaderboard for the time trial mode of this game? I think I'd run one per each stage of the game.

Presumably it'd use IGT.
