#introduction uhm actually 🤓🤓 #any% beating the game with any% completed is not possible ,because there is no % that you can complete. you can only complete 100% of the game. There are no collectables or any objective that you can complete in any amount of percent before reaching the end of the game.Thus Any% is a invalid and silly name for just reaching the end for this game. #sin Don't get me started for the other category name , which is even more absurd. I can see why people name the main category any% , because that's what everyone does (even i have committed that sin). But just because everyone uses that category name doesn't mean it is right to always use it. #blueprint% Getting the blueprint / copy paste function is not a percentage of the game and if you say it is because its level 12 out of a maximum 26 levels.... then sure, but why is any% called "any%" and not "100%" then? because if blueprint% is equal to 44% then completing any% means just starting the game and quitting. #hate I absolutely hate % in category names where they do not belong , I've seen it way to often . #🙃 on a more serious note: i assume changing the category names is not something you guys could do even if you wanted to , because they have stayed for way too long. I just wanted to rant around. In the end its just a name for a speedrun category. I just wish people wouldn't just slap % at the end of category names , because "iT'S spEeDruNNinG TraDition" or "thats just how you do it".
I thought about having "curated seeds" as a category, basically the community would find fun but challenging seeds / setting codes, that have a lot of possible optimization. Those could be added as a possible "curated seed", each as a different variable (sub-category). Thoughts on that ? (and if you want you can also post fun setting codes here,they need to be full game complete-able though)
I think this game leaderboard is super cool 😎. Almost as cool as the game.
Post your ideas for categories here ! Its best practice, if you actually have a example video and a clear set of rules before suggesting anything.

We are currently looking for verifiers to help us verify runs! If you are interested, please fill out this form.
https://www.speedrun.com/muck/run/yv1pxnoy so what i predicted happened.. now the category is pretty much just reset until you get house with adamantite.
how about a subcategory in which you cannot take anything from structures?
Pretty hard to get but this could be a possible skip in the purple area
(already posted on the discord but might as well post here)
Ay im confused ... again. how is the IL(individual levels) timed? it mentions igt timing but when i retimed aqwii's black room run and i came out with a 2:28.400 instead of a .052ms . I assume the timing starts at the first frame where you can see the timer which was this: https://ibb.co/WzVnp4N ( frame : 189.85)
So its 4:58.27- 2:29.87 = 2:28.40
right?
I got a few things id suggest for the leaderboard. for anyone seeing this ,comment what you think !👍
1st thing id suggest is changing the category names in misc. remove the "%" from them. they don't have anything to do with percentage.
2nd thing id suggest is putting the room categories into the level leaderboard, as they are levels and it would make the leaderboard a bit nicer to look at and maybe a bit more organized.
3rd thing id suggest is adding timing rules to the game rules. The current rules don't say anything about timing the runs and i wasn't able to find anything on the forum either.
4th thing id suggest is adding igt timing to the leaderboard. ive seen a few runs use the ingame timer,while others are rta.. a igt timing method would be a nice help there since then you can choose between rta or igt
alternatively the igt timer could be mandatory and if for some reason they dont have it its just timed in rta and its their own fault lol... now that i think about it .. i think it should just be igt ... so dont actually add the igt method ontop of the rta timing method. just 1 ... if you know what i mean.
5th could be a discord but i dont think thats fully needed . the community doesnt seem to be too big. so for now thats not really a big point.
Oh and yes i saw that you mentioned that its your first time moderating / setting up a leaderboard (@Lode_Ghost ) .let me know, if you need any help setting up or moderating the leaderboard .
Rule change!
Small convenience for people that cant display livesplit while using the autosplitter. We now allow people to use igt without showing the livesplit autosplitter in the video. The solution to this is splits.io . After looking into it a bunch we came to the conclusion that we can verify the integrity of the autosplitter with splits.io and because of that we decided to add it as a alternative option for using the autosplitter in a speedrun.
For more info read the game rules and this guide: https://www.speedrun.com/karlson_itch.io/guide/loizl
(This is just a repost from the discord)
2 things that has been changed !
1st thing is as of now you will need to display your speed in the [owo] category. This will be done with the ingame console and with the command "speed 1 " . More info in the rules. All old runs without it will be grandfathered in and wont need the speed indicator. https://www.speedrun.com/karlson_itch.io/full_game#OwO
The second thing is that the speed indicator will be accepted as a form of verification along game audio , autosplitter, handcam and keyboard input display. That means you can simply run individual levels without audio but with the speed displayed( or a full run). Just like in the owo category this is done with the ingame console. More info about this in the game rules.
Once again the moderation of this board has changed. The old moderators were inactive. (and still are)
So i requested moderation for this leaderboard. Now ...well here we are.
I'm not sure how many people are taking a peek into this leaderboard , but if you got any suggestions or question be sure to ask!
Ive asked in the discord a couple times ,but i never got a real response.. why is it divided into pc and web?? There is no difference ,apart from lag lol. I would suggest removing the subcategories and combining them into one.
Can you guys please remove the % out of the category names. It makes no sense to include it in the current categories. btw i just randomly found this leaderboard and saw the wonky category names
Here are some suggestions and ideas i have for the leaderboard.
#new timing rule
i think timing should just be done from when you spawn in to when you kill the last enemy( either first frame of the reactor exploding or first frame of the text appearing)
#Timer rule
The timer rule is bullshit and doesn't make sense. There is no reason( at least to me ) to have a timer shown. There is no autosplitter or anything like that. So showing a timer doesn't do anything. On-top of that its against moderation rules https://www.speedrun.com/moderationrules
#retiming
back to timing.. i don't think the leaderboard moderation retimes runs (i only talk about Mrsp1k3s in this case because tselis is inactive) That should 100% change... runs should always be retimed ..doesn't matter who did them... maybe i timed my runs perfectly right so you didn't have to retime them but when i retime other runs they don't fit. So something doesn't seem right. (Timing rules are also pretty uncertain..i mean when does the button count as clicked=?? when is an enemy defeated?? a hint towards "#new timing rule")
#solar system category
The solar system category isn't really needed . To my knowledge is it the same as tiny galaxy, unless i miss something here. The category can be removed.
#time with and without loads
tbh I'm uncertain about that, but i don't think its fully needed. We can just change the timing start like in " "#new timing rule"" and it will prob have somewhat of the same effect. The only categories that would use the time without loads are the galaxy runs and the credit collection. I guess it could be a nice addition there but i doubt those few seconds will really be that much of a influence. It can stay but only if we change the timing start to what i said in " "#new timing rule"" and if we don't have it in the planet category .. since there are no loads there.
(also its a lot of work to remove the loads)
#no speedup and speedup
Its pretty good right now , but i don't think we need it in the galaxy runs or the credit collection. You will always use the speed up there...unless you want to waste your life haha.
So removing it from the "long" categories would be smart i think.
#new moderation
Currently the supermod is inactive and the only mod is Mrsp1k3s. We should get a few new moderators that know the game , are active and know how to moderate a leaderboard. I think its a bit hard for Mrsp1k3s right now because he doesn't have a lot of experience in moderating a leaderboarrd . I know that Captain Redstone would like to moderate the leaderboard and i also don't mind to moderate it. If we can get into contact with tselis that would be great.
#Game Cover
It looks weird and stretched. yea... idk get a good one haha.
#Any% credit collection
I dont think we need to have Any% in the name... while yes its true...but just having it named "Credit collection" looks better. If people are confused if they have to complete a few solar systems or smth before they collect the money we can just include somthing like:" You dont have to finish any amount of solar systems or planets" , but i think people understand what they have to do from the name alone.
Im pretty sure the solar system Category isnt needed since its pretty much the same as "tiny galaxy" .
I think it can be removed and people can just submit runs to the "tiny galaxy" category if they want to clear a full solar system.
Maybe there is something that i missed ...lmk
