does this abuse the gambling in any way? i saw a jerma stream where he straight abused the gambling mechanics and i'm half-tempted to apply it to this game or even chocolatier 2
Oh wow. I was going to make a comment about clicking labels to remove certain graphs, but Minecraft: Bedrock Edition is indeed completely unreadable. Statistics, even if they're inaccurate, are a good indication of the history of many leaderboards and tend to be the most accessible way to view record history.
If you haven't submitted simply a picture of the bedrock edition statistics page to https://www.speedrun.com/the_site/thread/onfz6 as a bug, you should. Definitely not readable when it should be.
you can feel free to become a crusader against the overuse of percent signs, as i and many others choose to do. however, just because the site recommends not using % doesn't mean it's against the rules- it just makes it bad practice.
it's not against the rules to have category names that are abhorrent.
@Lieutenant_Boo autocorrect does not consider "speedrun" a word and will automatically wedge a space for "speed run". you can check this yourself by typing speedrun into the post box and seeing the squiggly red lines (on chrome, at the very least).
tearing down someone who is a little lost and new to the community for obeying the red squiggles is not a friendly approach and makes all of us look bad. don't do that.
For me, that's a huge no-no. Changing the notes on another person's run is for someone viewing the run, with things such as changes in timing method, reason for a change in acceptance or something with grandfathering, or rarities such as that. Moderator notes added in addition should be intended for anyone who views the run in the future.
It is NOT a place for a moderator to put critiques or tips on how the runner did poorly or how to improve. Notes from a moderator under a run should be the exception and not the rule, and ESPECIALLY should not be used to gives tips and critiques that weren't asked for. Leave the tips and notes for the runner/s to give.
Definitely disrespectful. Morally questionable? That's melodramatic. You don't have to propose this as an "open ended discussion for all parties involved to note jurisdiction or privilege" or anything floofy like that. Just point-blank ask whoever it is to stop, and if they don't, ask site admins to get involved at that point.
yup! i think we have a decent guide and resources on that, but if you're not getting it join the discord and we can help ya out step by step.
Added Any% Glitchless in light of the new any% world record.
Are we even sure glitches save that much time yet? It's been a day, I would give it some rest first.
Edit: I will open up the discussion for other categories, as I have truly no idea if there are any other categories besides Any% and possibly Any% Glitchless.
@Stefan78987 If you link the video to start at the time of the IL () for each IL, that would be fantastic.
Hiya! I recently resubmitted a game, realMyst, which is already a subset of Myst. I had a very lengthy list of reasons (which I can't retrieve because the request got rejected), all boiling down to the fact that realMyst, at one time, did belong as a sub-category but no longer does.
It was rejected today on the basis that realMyst already exists and I am not a mod of Myst, so I can't make that call, which is fair. The rejection also asks if I had the OK from the current Myst mods, which I do, but I guess I do not have the opportunity to present as such until now. In this thread, the two active mods should have a response indicating that realMyst should stand as its own boards, etc.
As I cannot respond directly to the rejector, I hope this post reaches the right person soon enough. Thanks!
First time at ESA, and was very impressed with the whole event! Will go again, if able. I'm not sure having a first timer reflect on how great the event was would be helpful, as I don't really have a baseline to compare it to, so I will just reflect on the cons. Don't consider this as negative, though - if I didn't comment on it, it was fantastic!

Having both streams and more going on in one room was certainly a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it definitely demonstrated a more relaxed and less uptight interpretation of the stream - just here to have fun! - but that was taken to a perhaps disrespectful extreme in some cases. I was interrupted once by the extreme celebration surrounding Street Boyz, and I know I wasn't the only runner. As well, I thought it tasteless for the GTA $25% run to have a bunch of people run over to Stream 2 and draw attention away from the stream - while it was donated by someone else, it didn't have to be accepted. Having all that activity in one room was far better than I expected, but definitely had its issues.

I don't think the "having the audience full at 8 am for the tv crew" thing was executed well. I don't know how the Need for Speed runner felt about the entire audience in exodus after an A-OK from staff, but it definitely seemed uncool.
-
No idea if this is just how ESA is, but it was irksome to have more runs than not go over estimate. I heard of a couple instances of people submitting runs where their estimate was faster than their PB, which seems to defeat the purpose of an estimate. I don't know if this is an issue with the marathon itself or how people treat it.

PC room was a nightmare, but I'm certain there are other people who can express the exact issues with it better than I can.
That's really about it! Not a lot of complaints from me, but high praise to tech, to hosts, to organizers, and to the entire community! Very glad this was my first event, and I hope to see you all at another event!
While I would love to employ either of these skips, considering the hassle the alchemy quarter key and the boat are, the rules pretty clearly state "- Out-of-bounds in not allowed.".
It might merit discussion to look at a distinction between pure glitchless and "glitchless lite" that includes these "sort of glitches but not really" in them, but I don't make the rules. All I know is that I'd much prefer a run that includes things like these instead of the current nightmare the glitchless run stands as.
Also, nice job on the wr, you destroyed the old one effortlessly :D .
Mod asked about fps, so I'll provide computer specs.
I have a Windows 10 PC, Intel I7-7700k, with a Radeon R9 380 GPU. I really doubt you need a computer that's that good, but I wouldn't be surprised if you need something better than a laptop or a desktop from 2006.
For getting my game started, I used this guide - https://steamcommunity.com/app/3260/discussions/0/1692662484256588442/
For the most part, since holding down water and being able to jump at the same time makes it really fast to play the game, even modern versions of CAL are probably faster than android. Also to note, you can't downpatch the game to readd the glitches that are essential to the WR, such as spike climbing, so that puts Android at an even further disadvantage.
There may be further glitches that make Android faster, but I don't know of them, since I do not own the android version.
i recommend that until we have a livesplit load remover that we can just manually run through the runs frame by frame and determine the loading times and cut them out, especially for any% where it's just one load. it shouldn't be too hard to find the proper pointers that indicate that the game is loading, because i think i found them two years ago but didn't know how to use them properly.
as for timing standards, both are a pretty easy start and stop point to find in frames, and again, manual timings can be used until a livesplit start/end splitter could be implemented which, again, shouldn't be too hard to find because they're distinct moments (the pointer for horizontal velocity should be an easy find and a cutscene boolean is around there somewhere).
i agree with both points though, yeah.
