Backstage in the IL leaderboards leads it to be a little awkward for me as well. As Degeda said, it doesn't feel like the individual effort of a certain character to me.

I do like the idea of all episodes though. Might put that in the Full-game categories though, so it's together with the All Characters category. I'll also rename those two categories to "Single Character, All Episodes" & "Single Episode, All Characters" respoectively, to remove ambiguity.

What I'll definitely do though is add Episodes 2-6 in the All Characters category.

Lemme know what you think of these ideas.

Hi, I'm just going through the forums and responding to old threads now that i have a little spare time.
If they are replicable for other people, then they're fine by me personally.

Should probably mention that runs that don't defeat all foes are known as Any% runs.
If any existing runs defeat all foes, please DM me with the link to the run in question and I'll move it accordingly.

Hello everyone! It is with great pleasure that I announce that "All Fights" is a sub category for all FG and IL categories.

Good luck on all of your prospective runs!

@notRandomannotRandoman Sadly, this is a tutorial that's only relevant before the layout overhaul times. When our Irish lord and saviour Pac released the new layouts, he did so with some crucial features being inaccessible. Notable examples being the graph that shows the WR history of a category and sub-categories in ILs and FG runs.

The former has been reinstated. However, with my terrible vision I can't see the latter anywhere.
I'll keep you posted on when I finally find how to add the categories.

As the title suggests. No category has rules. Can those be set up please so we have an easy access to timing rules?

I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED!

Hey everyone. I am all for this actually. The only issue is I don't think the sub-category options have been launched into the new SRC layout. Either that, or I can't see them. I can't add them just yet because of this.

Hey there Treya. Links have been replaced with bombchus links. These should work.

Hi there, I'm open to discussing this and I reckon the following; the way to unlock Jester is pretty easy and almost painless if you grind Warrior episode 1 for an hour. I currently don't see the point in it being a category. In the meantime, you can probably just do individual episodes runs.

Put you up as a verifier as i dont have much time myself.
Moderate wisely!

Should be, Tricrow might have a good implementation for it.

Grandfathered all Leaderboard runs to the respective IL Leaderboards.
Just getting the rules all cleaned up and in the appropriate places is what's left.

So Double... when's your first run? :^)

You are correct. I didn't know how to implement that until now

But I think I got it so I'll get to implementing that

++ Location, like last year, was perfect! Easily accessible and near a hub airport.
++ The arcade room was an incredible fallback when I wasn't hanging out with people. Especially the jubeat machines, those were a stellar distraction.
+ Loved having streams 1 & 2 in the same room, even if there was some audio leakage from one stream to the other. I like being able to see with a head turn what was going on on the other stream.
+ Great tournament room. Feasel did an amazing job throwing all this together and I can't thank him enough for his support of my side event.

- The playlist kept playing the same 5 songs over and over. They are cool songs don't get me wrong, but I'd aprreciate a little variety.
- Countdowns to build hype are amazing. Counting down 4 hours at a time for a full week to a time that isn't even the stream start time is not.
- This is not under your control, but please can runners not set dumb estimates for their runs? Unless more than one person are submitting the same thing (which you shouldn't do anyway) they don't look cool and when they inevitably encounter terrible marathon luck they look even less cool. PSA: Keep your estimates high.
- I'm not gonna play the saint on this occasion, because i was part of the problem. But if something is quickly shaping up to be a very noisy thing (á la Street Boyz) it's best that it's moved outside of the stream room.
-- The quiet practice room was not quiet for a time and it barely had any equipment to support practising. Despite all that, apparently someone even streamed in there because they didn't wanna use the ESA overlay of the streaming stations (?!?!)

Spent a hot minute finding VODs again and retiming any run that I could find the VOD for.
A few issues:
1) I could not find any of OSkilled's runs that verify his times, only runs that were slightly above the listed time. Don't know what to do about those
2) Can no longer find majoneesi's Twitch so I can't verify his times and retime them. This has led to Oxylen taking the kuso Demo WR,despite the fact that with the IGT system for the demos majo has WR (the millisecond digits in the demos are copied from the last three digits in the frame counter, making majo's time a 49.083)

What could we do about these issues?

Demo can be moved as a miscellaneous category, there's no need to delete it outright, an archive of what was will do.

Seconding the above, especially the inconsistencies in the leaderboard.
The timing rules are unfortunate, so I suggest using Zet and Gelly's autosplitter and ranking runs by RTA until IGT can be fixed.

Also, I'd like to throw my name in the pool of potential helpers for this undertaking. I moderate BattleBlock Theater, Mojo! and the event pages of a Speedrunning event (UKSG) on this website and I have used all of the features of a game's leaderboard extensively. If you need a hand with this, I can certainly help

Works quite nicely. Might have to update my SFX to adapt to the new autosplitter.
Uploaaaaad iiiiiit!!!
If you make it so that Livesplit automatically recognises it, you will have saved me some effort of recreating my layouts.
