Michigan, USAThis is the Japanese leaderboard for Ar nosurge: http://niconamarta.sakura.ne.jp/index.php?game=%E3%82%A2%E3%83%AB%E3%83%8E%E3%82%B5%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%A5
As of May 2017 there is a new HDN community Discord which will serve as a home for both general fans of the series and speedrunners for the foreseeable future. The Discord aims to be more gameplay-focused than other HDN servers out there with a dedicated room for each game/set of games, though there is still a room for Nep media.
You can use this link to join: https://discord.gg/JPJKHFH
Most of the channels are public. If you're a speedrunner of one or more games in the series you can get a "speedrunner" role to access more administrative rooms such as those for marathon planning and leaderboard administration - just PM any user with the CPU role once you've joined.
Japanese leaderboard for Ar tonelico Qoga: http://niconamarta.sakura.ne.jp/wiki.php?game=%E3%82%A2%E3%83%AB%E3%83%88%E3%83%8D%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B3%EF%BC%93

Currently, there are several different timings for the final split:
Phase 2
- Selecting "I'll live a happy life with Aurica/Misha"(Jiseed)
- When the cursor for "Fin" appears(msty, Japanese timing)
Phase 3
- When the game is saved after the credits(Branch)
- When EXEC_PHANTASMAGORIA/. begins(Jiseed)
- When the cursor for "Fin" appears(msty, Japanese timing)
I propose using the Japanese timing, that way the final split is the same for every category and version. If you agree or disagree, please let me know.
Cool, I've been routing NG Any%.
Friend skills give inconsistent damage. That might be why.
There are. The any% categories are runs that end at phase 2 for At1 and phase 3 for At3. I think you confused them as individual phase categories
Yeah. If you want to see my strats, the VoD is on Twitch.
Edit: New run with updated strats on the leaderboard.
After replaying, the skip text sucks. Alternating between the X and O buttons quickly is faster.
I'd be down for a race when I start routing this game. I've watched your vids. Looking forward to how the complete run will turn out!
