New Jersey, USAZone of the Enders speedrunning now has its own discord server! You're welcome to join if you've got any interest at all in running either game in the series.
We sort of have something but not exactly. ZOE2 runner Shadowsabyss has got a channel on his stream's discord for general ZOE stuff and a couple people are in there (me, daisyfan, some zoe2 people). It's not really well-advertised and there's other stuff going on in the server.
I was thinking about this a while ago. Sounds like we should probably go ahead with it and make an actual dedicated server
Howdy. I'm here to ask for mod on the Zone of the Enders (speedrun.com/zoe) leaderboard. The regular mod said he isn't keeping up with the game and that I should replace him, but I can't get in contact with the supermod. He hasn't been online in almost 2 months and he hasn't responded to the messages I sent him on discord 3 weeks ago. There are various problems with the LB (no verification, broken vod links, took a full year to get an invalid run claiming 1st removed :O) that I want to fix and neither mod has paid attention to the game in four years anyway.
Howdy everyone. We should start removing loads in our runs for the leaderboard because they're too different across versions. Removing loads would make all three viable (PS3 will still lag but its fine) whereas right now if you aren't playing on a 360 with a hard drive you aren't going to come within a minute of a "good time."
You can't compare IGTs because it's wildly inaccurate and honestly we should just get rid of the IGT column altogether. I beat my PB all the time with a worse IGT, and vice versa. I have no idea what it's counting.
I wrote a script that removes loads since it's kind of hard/annoying to do yourself. It's not very good but I was able to run it on my PS3 and 360 PBs, and found that there's 1m5s difference in the loads between them. That's pretty awful. If we decided to start removing loads I'd get the script into a better state so anyone could use it and then release it. I'd be willing to convert the times for all the old videos on the leaderboard too.
That brings up another point which is that we should turn on run verification. Nothing too bad has ever happened but the top Very Hard run is actually only played on Hard difficulty and if we removed loads we'd need someone checking them anyway.
So yeah let me know what you think. Nobody does more than like 3 runs of this game before bailing on it but I still think we should have nice leaderboards.
That clip works pretty much the same as the others, the goal is to get close enough to the door that when it drops from the ceiling you can use it to push you through the wall. I do the positioning based on feeling but once you've got that, the angle for the clip is if the grey line in the doorframe is on the left of the screen. (Pic 
) Then just tap R+L to clip through the wall.
Just a small bug in the site. Someone submitted SM64 runs to the leaderboard on behalf of a Japanese runner whose name is also tapioca, so it sent me all the notifications for that even though I've got nothing to do with it.
There's a big invisible thing around the level that will teleport you back in if you touch it.
Here's a picture of it in the editor: 
The solution is to not touch it
