Suggested Board Adjustments due to Moderation Change

United States

Due to the recent moderation change, I would like to suggest a few changes to the board again for a more clean and concise look.

Remove the IGT time column. Frankly this isn't needed, and using the default time column during submissions would suffice. Not only this, but the board sorts the times incorrectly one of the columns is not filled in.

Add this game to the Colin McRae Series. https://www.speedrun.com/knowledgebase/supporthub/game-adjustment - Then select "To be Part of a Series". Not sure why the previous mod was so reluctant on adding the game to the series.

Personal Suggestion: Remove the Free Run Category. As pretty much the only person who has ran this category, it is stupid. Time Trial is a much better representation of this category for Rally Raid, and Campaign mode for Circuit races.

Ban Full-Grid AI in Free Run as an option for Campaign Mode. Why? Because you could just use the Mini Cooper for each track and wipe out the board of any variation, and that's what Time Trial is for. In my honest opinion, campaign races are the only current way to run this board without using solely the mini cooper and impreza, and the variation is quite nice. Alternatively, perhaps some more Full Game categories could be added to capture more racing variation.

Allow for time trial races to be played offline. This should be self-explanatory if the leaderboard is still shown at the end, but would be nice for this to be allowed.

Personal Suggestion: Don't require the leaderboard for time trial (but Highly Suggest it). Why? Because for time trial you are completing unlimited laps, and in most cases you would rather continue doing attempts instead of finishing the race. This option is just personal though, and I understand if it remains a required option.

Elaborate on rules. Board rules are pretty vague, especially regarding specifics to submissions (audio rules, ghost rules, cars used, etc). Would greatly help clarify the board.

Update the Background to a Higher Quality Image. Please!

I know this is a lot of suggestions, I've been keeping a list since I started to run this game. I would have helped with moderation of this game but frankly I'm working on redesigning a lot of boards currently, and didn't have time to take on another, but I believe this board is in good hands now and will have a great moderator! If you have any questions about any of my suggestions/statements, let me know!

Thanks for the suggestions. They all seem like good changes so I'll do my best to apply them over the next few days. If anyone has any more suggestions or disagrees with any of the changes listed above please let me know. Lets do our best to make this board the best it can be.

Just a small update. I've gotten all of the major changes done. I still haven't gotten around to redoing the rules. In their current state they are still a bit vauge. Thanks for sticking with me during this transition period.
