MartiniqueYes, but considering the categories of this game are all pretty different, it would not make much sense. I really advise you to understand the ruleset of the game and watch runs before submitting anything.
Hello, you can join the Discord server to share this: http://discord.speedsouls.com/ I am going to lock this thread.
Come join us here: http://discord.speedsouls.com there are a lot of Elden Ring speedrunning related channels (including #er-help) and someone will most likely be able to help you.
The category is not going to be opened just because you want it. I already know who are the runners and you aren't any of them. You can join the SpeedSouls Discord to discuss everything about All Bosses with the runners here: http://discord.speedsouls.com
I claim to be the most active Souls verifier, multiple games handled effortlessly. You do not seem to run either Souls or Sekiro so far, so your question is from a completely casual perspective, I assume. The community decided to keep Sekiro out because of its differences, successfully giving this game its biggest weakness (not being Souls is insignificant) and also its biggest strength: Sekiro can stand forever on its own, it will never fade out because it has no memey predecessor nor successor. I could also confirm, before the Elden Ring leaderboards opened, how committed to Sekiro the runners are, the true ones at that.
Because of the current patch (version 1.04) released recently, all the runs which were done on impossible patches (aka not 1.00 nor Current Patch) were moved to a miscellaneous section.
Hello, yes, this is known, please join http://discord.speedsouls.com if you want to discuss about that with the others.
I do feel like you probably missed the annoucement in the Any% Glitchless thread in the SpeedSouls Discord server. Please join us http://discord.speedsouls.com and discuss things with us there. I will lock this thread as suggested.
The runs with the "Glitchless" tag fit NWW way more than normal Any%, most of these runs would be stuck as being bottom of the leaderboards / hidden / obsolete for as long as Any% Glitchless does not exist as its own entity (which by the way, is certainly not anytime soon). Because they have the tag, they are easy to deal with when the new category opens, regardless of where they are located.
There are console speedruns on the leaderboards already, you should also look at them.
Hello, Elden Ring speedrunners.
The moderator team has been working hard since launch to get the speedrun leaderboard up and running before the suggested date of the 18th of March. Unfortunately, we will have to postpone the launch of the leaderboard by at least one week. The new date we now strive for the boards to open will be the 25th of March.
This mainly has to do with creating a timing method and ruleset that we feel is fair to everyone and is taking more time than originally anticipated. If you require additional clarification as to why this decision was made, please send a message to one of the game's moderators.
Thank you in advance for your understanding and patience.

To be honest, the existence of Dark Souls III All Bosses Glitchless is an open invitation to the absolute worst, the best only being secondary, which is sad. If you do happen to waste a fifth submission, it is going to be solely on you. It has been going since August 2021, making Souls verifiers (one of the fastest squads I bet) spend extra time over nothing is already over. I actually stopped verifying a run to type my very last comment in this thread. Good luck.
When a run gets verified, it means the verifier watched the whole thing. When a run gets rejected, it means it could indeed be in just a few seconds because the obvious literally explodes in the verifier's face, and even then, it's not always true, it could be a pure waste of time before finding an issue. Your last submission will be rejected very quickly if verifiers, even outside of the Dark Souls III ones, do not consider it a speedrun. I would suggest not wasting your time unless you are that passionate about what you are doing.
I imagine the speedrunners were more in disbelief than myself, because I have gotten used to people doing a lot of random nonsense in the slowest runs of the leaderboards for the games I verify. Legendary fourth submission was an eye-opener, though, I think I actually see things properly for the first time ever.
After quite a while, I decided to make this short instead of stalling just for your case:

Yesterday, myself and the three peeps (also a few non-speedrunners) listed below decided to spend time actually watching your fourth submission, which is still, at the end of the day, an unnecessary casual playthrough.
https://www.speedrun.com/user/Siegbruh (DS3 speedrunner/verifier) https://www.speedrun.com/user/rrazzmatazz (DS3 speedrunner) https://www.speedrun.com/user/scewps (DS3 speedrunner)
It took me 2786 verifications spanned over six Souls games to finally, truly accept the fact that some speedrun.com users actually just completely waste verifiers' time, most likely on a daily basis too, which is worrying.
Somewhat unrelated but, unfortunately for you, February 2022 does not seem to be a very good month to be a Dark Souls III verifier, we already had to deal with a proper speedrunner being very disrespectul to Siegbruh, and very dishonest to me plus Horstz; might as well have tried to deceive all other Souls verifiers to cover himself too while he was going at it. Your case coming right after, given all the elements that Souls verifiers (all Souls games) have now, does not even remotely help thinking things are going to get better before Elden Ring actually releases.
Even more, also yesterday, after I was done going through your run, I went and asked caprices if he wanted to watch a run from luc1 (both runners listed below). I was even willing to give him some compensation in one way or another, for I disturbed his DS3 stream content/schedule ever so slightly. He agreed to commit to it for free just out of curiousity, he actually would just run Dark Souls III All Bosses Glitchless a bit after reaching his normal All Bosses goal, which is easily achievable. It was a very valuable experience, nothing will ever be on par with that this month, I can tell you that much.

The run from luc1 in question here is currently at the top of the Dark Souls III All Bosses Glitchless list: https://www.speedrun.com/darksouls3/run/z5vx7pjm The bottom run in that very same list is a run from Kaevex: https://www.speedrun.com/darksouls3/run/z06w8vez
After 2786 verifications spanned over six Souls games, I can tell what is kinda good and what is rather not. To quote myself from the SpeedSouls Discord server: "There are the unnecessary mods, the complete waste of verifiers' time, no semblance of a speedrun route (pretty much 100%-tier grabbing all items, killing all mobs [including the second Ancient Wyvern])." Your goal was to make people laugh a bit, if anything, well now instead long time Souls verifiers think you are just horribly malicious. I do not know where to sit with that exactly, because I always have hopes when it comes to fresh speedrun submissions in the Souls series' queue. That being said, I will never, ever give any credit to people throwing casual playthroughs at Souls verifiers anymore, your content was the last straw.
Your fourth submission will be rejected by myself, please actually try to be anyone's competition even remotely before the next one.
You are bad at reading the rules, I am afraid, as IGT loading screen crashes being disallowed is not new.
Peeps in the community can most likely help you here: http://discord.speedsouls.com/
Maybe some people in the community are going to take their time to troubleshoot this but nothing guaranteed, you can try your luck here: http://discord.speedsouls.com/
You run mods at your own risk and peril, if the moderation team disapproves of what's in your runs, they will be just be rejected.
