Is there a way we can add the Discord server here? It may be easier for new members to learn the proper route and ask questions.

I recently did SO: FDR for the 12 hour speedrun, and attempted to write down some sort of speedrun guide for me/the community, since I noticed there were no current guides for beginners.

I mostly jotted down some bullet points and the lore while watching some runs, and want to hopefully get a guide/resource on the SR page. So, I put my notes in an editable google link, in hopes that we can get the ball rolling there.

The link is https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QRWd8niDuxNaHMEZra9XFaLTeVweh-n_RavU8SQE3QI/edit

It's also in the Star Ocean Speedrun Discord if people want to find it there as well.

Please keep in mind that this draft is a VERY ROUGH AND VERY BAD outline. So, if you're confused in any way, don't worry. It's just because I'm bad at this. :-)

This game seems to be popping, and I plan on joining in the fray once I upgrade the Switch version to PC later this week/weekend.

Is there a Discord available for us all to join in, consider stickers/upgrades as a whole, and help the community grow?

(also a channel for remixes of the remixes?)

I don't know if it really saves time or anything, but I always hug to the right during the entire level and everytime I do, I never seem to get a second "save me" section. Instead, I get the "Thanks fox!" animation from my companions.

Is this anything that could help/hurt the run?

I'm interested in speedrunning this, but never routed before. So, I guess we could discuss everything here?

Team ECS is proud to announce the next event we’ve all been promising you, The Speedrunning eXpo! This time, for SRX fall, the marathon will be held online! That’s right - No venues, no hotel fees, no worries about driving 10+ hours to hang out with your favorite speedrunners this time. You can easily chill all weekend long with us, from the comfort of your couch! ...or chair, or standing, or sitting on your pet Doberman. I guess it really depends on how you speedrun games.

Nevertheless, submissions for the games you run are now open! You can submit your run by clicking here: [SUBMISSIONS CLOSED AS OF 8/1/15]

Every run will be reviewed and considered, regardless of skill level. First time in a marathon? Now’s your chance, dude. This could be your big break. We’ve already gotten nearly 2 days worth of content so far, and we at Team ECS cannot wait to have a blast with all of you wonderful people. SRX fall will be held September 25-27, 2015 on twitch.TV/speedrunningexpo. Dates/schedules are subject to extend to the 28th depending on submissions.

So, I'm thinking about doing an online speedrunning marathon dedicated to only Star Wars games the weekend before Star Wars Episode VII comes out in American theaters. Right now, I'd like to do December 12-13, with the 11th open as well if we get enough runners. After that, I'd like to move the event to the weekend following May 4th.

Everything is still kind of up in the air right now, just trying to scope who all would be interested in participating in games and/or helping everything behind the scenes.

Anyone else do this catagory? As far as what I've seen, no one else even runs the game anymore, much less NG+.

Since I can't find any actual record of that catagory, I'm interested if anyone else is interested and/or knows any current runners.

I'd love to confirm my WR. HA.
