With Definitive Edition releasing I am most confident that many are seeking all resources they can find to run the game. Here are the latest route notes made for the PS3 version of the game to get you started: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TtMxoMps-Ilzyf5NiQ74H1ylDOSR4bt2/view?usp=sharing

If you need perspective for how the fights go, I'd advise watching nezumii's WR run here:

With the actual submissions of different difficulty settings in Graces NG+ I have decided to add the difficulty settings into sub-categories for Easy, Normal and Chaos.

I've been away from anything dealing with Sonic R for quite sometime and one thing that has caught my eye with this leaderboard is that the rules have been changed to In-Game time in order to avoid any sort of issue dealing with the inconsistencies nad problems that the PC version/s of Sonic R bring to the table. My issue with this is that In-Game time seems to be a temporary and not the best approach to dealing with the problem that the PC version will bring to RTA timing and will bring other problems into the mix.

Here are some examples:

1. In-Game Time will only count the time you obtain for races tallied up at the end of your run, meaning that when your run is finished you must go back through your Past Broadcast or recording of your run to add up all of your race times in order to have the time for you to submit. This can be very inconvenient method since if one's stream were to go down and/or was unable to record they would be completely out of any way to tell what their final time is. As opposed to RTA timing which all you needed to do was to hit your final split on your run to see what you final time was.

2. With In-Game time anything in between races does not count towards your final time. This means taking your time on menus before the races and even pausing in the middle of the races. Yes, even one could even go to the options menu and change the difficulty or anything else they please before the next track in the run. There have been times when even I have messed up menuing and chose a character that I wasn't supposed to.

3. To bring anything minor to the table, Celebration Skip and Fast Fade become unless.

Now the PC version is a very unreliable version to have as our standard version to play for RTA it is very unstable and runs differently of different PCs. This is why I have some ideas to propose to relieve us of this situation while also bringing RTA back:

1. Separate the versions: With this method, we no longer have to worry about unstable versions running in with other versions of the game. Gamecube, PC and maybe even Sega Saturn could get their own board/category.

2. Ban PC version from RTA or completely: This is probably the harshest route to take as there might be runners who only have the PC version but I'm going to be very honest here, a console (Gamecube) and Sonic Gems Collection does not cost nowhere near as much as it used to and many people here could afford themselves a copy along with a console. Recording it shouldn't be an issue either as there are very cheap options for capture cards or even some other form of recording.

3. Use In-Game Time for all versions: Use the In-Game timer and tally them all up after completing the final track (Radiant Emerald). Since I've already stated on how I've felt about this I'll leave it at that.

I would like to hear more than just moderators give their opinion on this. I wasn't told about the last time PC vs. Console was discussed and I feel we should not leave anyone who runs Sonic R in the dark about this, moderator or non-moderator. Feel free to give your opinions and suggestions.
