Forum: UNO (Ubisoft) Thread: switch waiting screen Started by: ZookieCookie3ZookieCookie3 (edited: ) |
I've debated splitting the categories per platform in the past, but I haven't come up with a good system for it since the console load and hand deal times are very inconsistent even between different units of the same console. Things are timed the way they are currently for that reason. I have a copy on both of my PS4 and Switch consoles and they each have considerably different load and hand deal times despite being played on the same platform and console model. Other games I run have used image recognition software to act as a load remover on console games, but since the boards, cards, player icons and speed of cards being distributed are different depending on the round and copy, there isn't an easy way to implement a system like that at this time. The mod team and I discuss the leaderboard structure frequently, so rest assured we are and will continue to do our best to make the leaderboard an even playing field for all runners in the UNO community. Thank you for your post! |

It just comes down to speed. Since the cards are randomized, the majority of tech just comes down to recognizing patterns and knowing when to reset or continue a run. Some rules of thumb I always go by are if a 7 or 0 is played in All Added Rules, it's usually safe to reset since the animation for the hand swap is usually not worth the time loss. Same thing if you have multiple 0s or 7s in your hand, since you'd have to play at least one. I've had sessions before where I've ended up playing for 4-5 hours and winding up with one completed run. It really just comes down to luck and practice. |

Forum: UNO (Ubisoft) Thread: Is Fenyx's Quest all rules added possible? Started by: |
Yes. All Added Rules for the Fenyx's Quest category does not require the Jump-In rule, since it's locked for that theme. The rules have been updated to reflect this. |

Co-op runs are not currently valid for submission as the lack of an additional AI character changes the gameplay. |

The mobile version appears to be the same version of the game, but it would be a different category. I'll add it to the leaderboard |

I wasn't aware there was a demo for this game. Could you submit some gameplay footage, so I can take a look at any differences? |

Yes! I purchased it recently, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet, so I can establish a rule set. I'm sure it'll be similar to the other categories, but I want to make sure there aren't any differences before I add the category. I'll prioritize it, since you asked! |

Thanks for the heads up! I wasn't the original SuperMod for the page and never realized it was configured incorrectly. I took care of it! |

My friend AlmightyMandals and I were planning to submit this game a while back. So, having a graphic design background, I went ahead and created clean box art for the game. Feel free to use it, if you'd like! Will hopefully be submitting some runs sometime soon. Box Art: |

This is great! I'll have to try it sometime! Glad to see this game has mods like you to support the community for things like Legacy! Would've never known how to do this otherwise! Thanks! |

Yeah, they're rough! Thanks for pointing it out! Best of luck with your continued run efforts! |
Forum: UNO (Ubisoft) Thread: No way to validate if action cards are in play Started by: ItsBlaskyItsBlasky |
I didn't realize they weren't shown in the pause menu! We'll have to require visual verification from the game select menu in order to allow it! I will update the leader boards to reflect that and add a category for "Theme Cards Required". |

I was appointed moderator and I've since moved it to the new "No Added Rules" category! Thank you for alerting me to this! |

Forum: The Site Thread: Request leaderboard moderation (Read the first post before posting!) Started by: lewisandsparklewisandspark |
Hello! I would like to request moderator permissions for UNO (Ubisoft) https://www.speedrun.com/uno_ubisoft. I've held the world record in three categories for over a year and had record in a fourth until a few weeks ago. Unlike most scenarios on this thread, I'm not contacting the site in regards to inactive moderators or slow approval of runs, but neglect for care of the page. Multiple cheated, edited and invalid runs have been approved and the moderators either left them on the leaderboards with no action or taken an extended period of time to respond to the inquiries regarding said runs. The rules listed for each category are also incredibly vague and could be explained in far greater detail, to help encourage new runners to submit to the page. I've reached out to the moderators on other social media platforms in the past and they've told me they don't need help moderating the page at this time, but invalid runs keep getting submitted, with what feels like, no proper analysis of the gameplay. For a game with most runs ending in times under two minutes, I see no excuse for this type of carelessness and I truly believe the community and page could benefit from a new moderator taking action. Please let me know if there's anything I can do or if I am able to be granted moderator permissions. Thank you for your time! |

You are correct. At the beginning of the video, you can see none of the added rules selected. This run would be invalid and a moderator should remove it from the page. |

I agree with Divad! The two versions are drastically different and shouldn't be in the same category! |
