Hey folks, we made a slight update to the rules to clarify when a run starts. The rules used to say:
"Run begins when you gain control of your character."
but now says:
"Run begins after selecting your character. (The frame the character-selection portrait disappears.)"
This change was made to ensure we have a consistent comparison between runs. Especially for Any% Amateur where it may come down to milliseconds.
Open to feedback if you think this change needs more discussion.
Thanks.
Hey folks, I was contacted by Omegacoma about adding a new category for X-Men. Wanted to get opinions on a few questions:
-
How will the rules differ from Any%? Are we only ruling out Gambit Skip? Can you still skip Juggernaut, Sabretooth, Mojo, etc? How about going out of bounds or clipping using teleport or Iceman?
-
What should we call the category? Glitchless? 100%? All Levels? No-Gambit-Skip? I guess this depends on what is allowed/disallowed.
What else do we need to consider?
Thanks for your input.
Hey folks, now that we have some new runners, I'd like to get everyone's input on adjustments needed to improve the rule set.
Some suggested topics:
-
Start of timing - I think we can be more precise than -2 at reset. Does anyone have a way to measure when inputs are first accepted after reset?
-
Suggested/Banned Emulators
-
Categories - Do we need anything besides Any%? Single-Character Runs?
-
Any thing else on your mind.
Thanks for weighing in.
