Change to IGT Timing
2 years ago
Pennsylvania, USA

Hello! You may have noticed In-Game Time (IGT) times appearing on runs as of earlier today. Mod Yarumasi and I were chatting about switching the main timing method for runs over to IGT to alleviate the issues between versions, especially with how differing loading times can be depending on what console or emulator you're using.

For the Story Mode categories, IGT is the sum of the time each of the 9 tracks.

If there's any objections to this, feel free to comment detailing why here. Runs will be updated over the next few days to have IGT (if you want to do this yourself, feel free!) and then once all runs are updated that can be (as some are missing video unfortunately), the board will switch over to default time as IGT. Rules have also been updated to note that IGT is required in submissions as of now.

All runs that were possible to retime have now been retimed and the sorting has been switched to IGT.

Make sure to actually yell at me if you don't like it, though, I came up with the idea and made sure to get some feedback especially from Kari here. I'm really glad how it works now, though, this will really let every platform play evenly and not have to worry about load times/slowdown anymore.
