Hello, we have started a vote which will determine whether we combine the lion king ‘category extensions’ and the 'main' board together.

If you would like to be part of this vote and share your opinion, please join the lion king discord server and cast your vote. https://discord.gg/3NY9xd9Ktk

Once voting has concluded I will update this post with results and any further details.

A controversial topic since the beginning... They we're discussed through the discord where we talked about what should and shouldn't be allowed, it turned into a debate on the developers intended path/no clips/random opinions. My main objection to current rule set is how convoluted it is and I believe that's one of the main reasons there's no active runners. These rules would need to be different enough to warrant an overhaul but everyone I've talked to previously including the current WR holder (before the stuff) has indicated they would be up for a change up.

Option 1 - Adjust Current Rules We'll have a another discussion and try come up with a more agreeable and in my opinion the most important thing a more 'friendly' run without so many reset points. The biggest issue people seem to have is the ledge swiping, I think if we take that rule out but still point out banned functions such as boulder skip it would create more enjoyable runs.

Option 2 (My preferred choice for simplicity) - New category "No Major Clips" (My original post was to say change the main ruleset simply to this, which I'd also be for.) RULES

  • No floor clips in Exile
  • No clip in Be Prepared

Can someone explain the reasoning with the new mods being added and how we came to the decision of Carter and Akiteru? Seems strange that Akiteru who doesn't run genesis at all is currently is a mod here? Maybe he could be added to SNES as a second mod there as it still only has 1 mod. Firstly it should have been brought up before any final decisions were made. Secondary I would like it to be someone who is currently running and involved with streams, which there are a lot of currently. Are we able to get a list of the candidates and get a group discussion going?
