I think for the sake of simplicity, ILs should only be for Story Mode so that the leaderboard doesn't get too cluttered.
I was wondering if there would be leaderboards set up for ILs since it displays the time at the end of each level. Would it be relegated to just one mode or would there be ones for both Arcade and Story mode?
I've been getting virus alerts lately when viewing certain boards. Not sure if it's a bug or of there's something triggering my antivirus.

There also appear to be PC, Amiga, and Gameboy versions as well. But the Amiga and Gameboy versions seem to be copying from the Genesis version while the PC version seems to be a PS1 port.
I hope you guys are aware that the Genesis and SNES version of Street Racer are very much not the same game.
I think it might be best to split up the boards by console since these are essentially different games.
It'd be nice if you're able to sort runs on a leaderboard by which runs are newest. Sometimes there's new stuff that pops up (new strats, routes, etc.) in newly submitted runs that the faster/WR times don't showcase.
EZGames69 and I created a new Discord for Turrican Speedrunning. Should help get everybody together.
Also, moved from Super Turrican to the Turrican series since it's probably more relevant here.
It would be nice if we were allowed to add multiple discord links to a game page. There are cases that I've seen where the community for a certain game is spread across multiple servers, so having to choose only one to represent the game is rather inconvenient.
The only problem I have with the game is that the keyboard controls are very spread apart, making it rather taxing to do attempts. I haven't tried the gamepad controls since I'd need to set up my PS3 controller.
Other than that, seems like a pretty fun game.
My fastest time atm is 1:36.43.
Nah, any% doesn't require all atoms. You are required to obtain some atoms in order to access certain sections, but progression is mainly done by accessing specific areas that trigger the way to the boss of each "World".
I believe there was a TAS in the works a LONG time ago that showed this off by skipping almost the entirety of Planet E using a superjump off an enemy to access a part of the Mine and heading back to the main area, thus triggering the opening to the Palace. However, all of the TAS vids have since been marked private by the author so I can't exactly show them here. :(
From what I heard, Expert on PAL is the same as Expert on NTSC. I don't think it's impossible per say. Maybe it could do with some rerouting to make it more viable for speed running, but just cutting it out seems a bit drastic.
If there had to be a decision, I would probably exclude Expert on PAL until someone did a run of it.
