Thread: Video Required

Started by: CardsOfTheHeartCardsOfTheHeart

This was not expressly stated in the rules before today, but it is usually understood in the speedrunning community that you need a video to demonstrate that you actually did what you claimed to do. In fact, this very site's Twitter once Tweeted "no vid, no did."

Submissions have been previously rejected for having no video available and will continue to be rejected going forward, but now the rule can be seen on the Main Rules.

I love short categories. I hate arbitrary categories. I don't see any significance to the 1000 gold benchmark within the game. I tend to let game content dictate categories, not other people.

That said, if you want a short category:

Everybody left 🙁

Get to zero population as fast as possible. That's it.

If anyone is curious enough, you should make sure that you can get to zero population after reaching the council of crowns. I'll make that a thing, too.

It was discovered in the GDQ Hotfix tonight that the glitch to skip straight to the World Championship Final does NOT work on the European version. If you want to finish in a timely fashion, use the American version.

Thread: Timing Change

Started by: CardsOfTheHeartCardsOfTheHeart

6 Apr 2021, 23:20

Seeing as how the game doesn't actually start until you select whether you are a king or queen (existing saves do not get overwritten until you do so, either), it does not make sense to include it in the timing of the run. Therefore, the rule has been changed to start the timing of the run when you select King or Queen. All existing best runs with video have been adjusted accordingly.

Thread: I did a 100% speedrun today

Started by: BostonBrewBostonBrew

28 Feb 2021, 17:24

There was a brief discussion about this in 2015, but nothing ever came from it. I did my own run as a Twitch follower special in 2015:

The biggest difference between my run and Boston's run and a run bbforky did as part of a 24-hour marathon before mine was 3D. I did 3D in Marathon and Time Zone in my run because the records screen has separate scores for them, but no one else has. My requirements for the run were:

-Spa Service, including beating the Butch & Cassidy SPECIAL stage because you get a cutscene for winning
-50,000 points in Marathon 2D to trigger the credits
-50,000 points in Marathon 3D
-25,000 points in Time Zone 2D to trigger the credits
-25,000 points in Time Zone 3D
-Puzzle University, regular and special puzzles
-1P Stadium on every Game Level

I also created a new profile and started my timer right then as all of the achievements are tied to the profile. It practically adds zero time to the run if you create it within Spa Service.

If we can agree on a definition, then I am all for adding 100%. I really don't like Puzzle U as a category, though. There's pretty much zero room for creative or dynamic input and I don't find that interesting to track.

Thread: Save State Rules

Started by: [Deleted user]

12 Dec 2020, 17:40

We can come to a decision on save state use later (and I would personally ban them since Pokemon Gen 1 bans them for probably the same reasons that their community used), but I need to clarify a term of reference that is being thrown around in this thread.

When the rules talked about "emulator usage," they were referencing which emulators were actually allowed and that was it. The FAQ listed in the rules was purposefully linked to the specific section of that page that covers that issue, quoted below:

Quote

Can I play on an emulator?
If the emulator is accurate and the community for that game accepts emulator as a valid choice, then yes, you can. The most commonly used emulators for each system include:

NES - FCEUX 2.2.0
GB - bgb
SNES - SNES9x 1.53
GBA - VBA 1.7.2
Genesis/GameGear/SMS - Fusion
N64 - Project64 v1.7
For reference, the following emulators are globally banned for use in racing:

SNES - ZSNES, snes9x 1.4x
N64 - Project64 2.x
GB/GBC - VBA, VBA-M
GBA - VBA-M (use VBA instead. If VBA does not support your GBA game, please contact an op.)

The rules now reflect the precise rule set being borrowed from SpeedRunsLive of what emulators are allowed for submissions. Admittedly, they are a placeholder until we develop our own rules. Now that we are running an annual Tetris Attack tournament every March, we should get together sooner rather than later to decide on our own rules.

As for save states, technically we have no rule on them. I know multiple people that have started runs from save states and have never had a problem with their runs. I have proven the potential for their abuse, however.

I will advise now that runs starting from save states will be subject to greater scrutiny going forward. I do not recommend doing it.

Thread: American USA Category?

To echo my sentiments from the other thread, I think it would be as interesting as a speedrun of any old FootBall game or another sport with a fixed clock. I love me my sports games, but that does not sound interesting to me at all. Progress in the Japanese version is not tied directly to running out the clock as fast as possible; that's why that version is even remotely interesting to speedrun.

You are welcome to post a run here of what you're proposing, though I suspect it will be little more than finding creative ways to waste time, which goes against what I think of as a speedrun.

I was just sent this message from @Vraieliss:

Heya - been working on getting a Monster Rancher 2 Any% run recorded and finished, but having to emulate and the resources given Kato file doesn't work at all with Mednafen. I found that the PSX game "C- Contra Adventure" does give a Blue Kato too though different starting stats. Wasn't sure best place to try to note that for others...

The site rules govern approval needed to add GAMES, not CATEGORIES. There is no site approval needed to add categories to existing games. With game requests as slow as they already are, I doubt site mods would be interested in adding category requests to their queue, as well.
