SwedenI found an elevator skip on Burning Tower. This saves ~26,7s! Super easy and free!
People do use the character colums for their submission. Of course there's going to be runs without video proof that never selected their character though.
You do realise how extremely overwhelming it would be to have categories for all characters on everything? Just because there's more categories wouldn't necessarily create more interest. I think this game has well enough of variety in different categories and IL's to choose from anyway. And even then the game isn't too active on the leaderboards. It's about the quality of the categories, not quantity. You're always free to use any character you want anyway.
Huge respect for listening and coming up with the changes so quickly! Keep it up :)
I hate the idea of streamlining everything. Now the leaderboards for games will be all the same. There's barely any customization options to personalize the page, which is really bad. I've spent so much time making logos and trying to get the perfect theme, all has now been thrown in the thrash. Such a shame.
[big]Update:[/big] Level Leaderboards has made the switch from RTA to IGT.
Previously submissions used IGT but was required to be submitted as RTA. We've now decided that there's no real reason to keep this, seeing that it's quite confusing.
Therefore I've gone through all of the Level Leaderboard and changed the times for runs from RTA to IGT to reflect this rule change.
I hope I didn't make any mistakes, but if you notice anything wrong, please let me know so it can be fixed!
So for new submissions, please submit IGT as IGT!
You should really take a look into fixing your FPS drops. I don't think Dolphin even requires that good of a computer to at least hold steady 60fps at all times.
As of now though there's not rules regarding FPS on emulators, so until then, I'd say you're fine. Unless it's a Top 3 or so time, I don't think it matters much too be honest.
These are the two ones that I've done Co-op in the past, I highly recommend these ones!

[big]Update:[/big] All runs now require video proof, regardless of their placing.
Since there's been a large influx of submissions to the Level Leaderboards, we've now decided to require video proof for all submissions from here on and out. (Both Full-game and Individual Levels)
All previous runs prior to this new rule change will stay up for now.
So for any new submissons, make sure to record your run!
[big]Update:[/big] RTA and IGT has now fully been added to all runs with videos that previously lacked either one of these.
The biggest change was the addition to IGT, since now tons of runs can actually be ranked on the leaderboards! RTA was usually already added to the runs, but I did double check and retimed where it was needed just in case.
It took quite a while for me to get this done, but it's worth it in the end for a more accurate leaderboard.
I hope I didn't miss any runs, nor that I did any mistakes. If I did, please feel free to let me know!
I don't think it's that necessary currently. There are only 1 console run for Casual No DLC and DLC respectively, and the rest of the categories only have 1 runner and further splitting isn't needed at this point. You can always use the Filter to manually check for different platforms anyway.
Also, I feel like it would take tons of work to setup for little to no reward, especially for the Level Leaderboards.
Berserk and the Band of the Hawk should probably also be added to the game series: https://www.speedrun.com/Berserk_and_the_Band_of_the_Hawk
[big]Update #1:[/big] The Rules now specificies that " 20XX, UCF, and C-Stick mods are forbidden Not too long ago the us moderators discussed whether to allow it or not, and we came to the decision to forbid the use of any mods, such as the popular 20XX, UCF and C-Stick mods.
If you know that either one of these are used in your runs, or if you know other runs that do, please contact any of the moderators so we can remove them!
[big]Update #2:[/big] Visuals and formatting improvements of the Rules I always thought that the state of the rules was previously in a very bad state. They were cluttered and not at all organized. I've since they taken it upon myself to improve the overall visuals and also format them to make it easy to read and know what is what.
This includes headlines such as "General", "Timing" and "Banned" to make it simple to know what type of rules they are.
If there's any suggestions on improvements, feel free to let me know!
[big]Update #3:[/big] Added tons of WR's to the Level Leaderboard There was so much missing runs that wasn't on the Level Leaderboard, so I decided to add all of the fastest time that had video proof.
If you are one of these runners and want them removed, contact any of the moderators and we'll help you!
I'm not a moderator but as far as I can tell:
- As long as it's not a Top 3 time, then you don't even need video proof at all, so anything (proof or not) will be accepted.
- If you wonder if an image counts as video proof, then obviously not as it's not a video.

[big]Level Leaderboard - General[/big] No Characters There’s countless, way too many to list, runs that has no ‘Character’ added to their submission. This all across Level Leaderboards, Event Match, Target Test, 10-Man and 100-Man Melee.
I just think it will not only look more clean, but just more professional and complete. It also takes not much time and is easy to fix.

Yeah, it's quite important that the rules are actually agreed upon and then enforced accordingly.
Well I'm happy to hear you and the other moderators are going to discuss this. Thanks you! :)
RandyF.Smash uses C-stick for his at least 3 of his BBT runs. You can clearly see in Webcam and on Input Display above that it's being used. Why are these runs verified and allowed?
I thought using 20XX to use C-Stick was against the rules?
These are the ones that I found that shows the use of C-Stick:
