Hello! Welcome to WWF Smackdown! Just Bring It.

After discussions with runners, we've realised that hardware can make a huge difference to the times on runs, and so those with great emulators will have an advantage on those with PS2 hardware.

The way we've decided to standardise this is by having the speedrun be decided on the in-game timers in the run. You'll still record your time from character selection up until the end of the final match in the story, but this will be recorded more as an extra statistic. Moderator (me, at the moment!) will verify your in-game times and the added sum of these will be your final run time.

For example, in a WWF Championship run, the times recorded will be: Time spent in Free Roam; Time spent for Match 1, 2 and 3. The time recorded will be the final time shown before the timer disappears.

It would be wonderful if you could record the time spent in each segment, but not to worry if this isn't possible. It just makes it a bit easier on me, and makes it easier for you to see how you compare - for example "oh, I lost 20 seconds in match two" or whatever.

If you've got any questions about the system, don't hesitate to reach out.

Cheers everyone, and have fun going fast.

Tom
