I've added in-game time (IGT) as a column to the leaderboards. (deathline requested this a while ago, but I didn't know how at the time)

Incidentally, there are many things I don't know about in-game time in this game:

• When is the timer running?
• Why is IGT longer than RTA in most categories?
• Is there a way to see IGT during the game?

Hello all! I'm arborelia, the new moderator for the Giraffe and Annika board. I took over from Cirno9 who was no longer approving runs. My pronouns are she/her.

Once I became moderator I was excited to see that there were two new Any% runs waiting to be approved. I'm excited to see more speedrunners of this game!

I understand that most runners of this game speak Japanese, and I can understand a little Japanese but I'm not very good at it. I think it would help to have an additional moderator who speaks Japanese. Please reply if you're interested.

I'd like to know what ROR stands for so I know what the new category split is.

When I started running this game, I lamented that a speedrun would have to involve skipping the songs -- the only skippable cutscenes -- and that's a tragedy.

So I decided I'd do an "All Songs" speedrun where you let them play. Some folks on Twitter agreed this was the correct category.

But in Any% you can skip the songs, and stop time when you defeat the boss and lose control. And, at the suggestion of a friend, I have the Any% time start at the first save point, so you can reload that save to reset instead of playing 10 minutes of mostly-unskippable intro.

Anyone else who's interested, are there adjustments I should make?

I messaged the mod, Gqro, about this as well, but I think that disallowing emulators is one reason this leaderboard is empty. It's too much of a barrier for most people to get started.
