Just a heads up looking at the PS4 v1.02 patch notes it's likely we'll be dealing with different version numbers across multiple platforms in terms of latest. Notes for v1.02 are PS4 pretty extensive and void warps no longer work so I'm guessing v1.02 included all the PC patches in a cumulative rollout. Last I heard Nintendo was still 1.01 but that's not shocking as I often see them lag behind on patch approval. Could be worthwhile to add what is latest for each version to the rules.

There may also need to be some nuance to the "latest patch" idea depending on future updates but I'm assuming you folks have talked about that. Like if we're not seeing any more major changes but something minor gets fixed, like a sound issue, I'm assuming we're not going to invalidate everything previous because the change is non impactful to the gameplay portion.

For quality of life purposes we are allowing runners of Final Episode categories to run "seeded" runs from a save file. Please be sure to check the updated rules for Final Episode to make your attempts more comfy and ensure it meets the new rule requirements if using a save.

Just so there's no surprise at the time of release the mods have spoken and we will be locking the boards for the first 2 weeks post release. This will be to allow everyone to enjoy the release, give proper time for category definitions, rules, etc. This will allow players to also work down their times and avoid the mods being hit with a flood of runs that will be beat the following day. Looking forward to running with everyone!

Hey all. After toying around with the game for the last couple days I'm thinking it would be a fun run. Game kicked my butt as a kid so thought it would be fun to return the favour. I'm guessing there's no real difference in characters based on them being combined on the boards (aside from visuals for their attacks), but just wanted to make sure. Rash is quite a bit shorter & was just wondering if this impacted his hitbox or range of attacks based on height.

Hey all, hope all is well. I saw AndrewG mention something about version differences regarding a TAS & was wondering what the overall version differences were. I see that JP is separate on the boards so I would have to imagine it's enough of an impact to warrant separation. (Not sure if that's a new change)

Also let me know if there's a good/preferred spot for chatting about strats and whatnot opposed to here.
