Possible Soul Melter addition

In the leaderboards you can not only choose what character you use in the variables, but you can also make the leaderboard only show a specific character. For Example:

Now, if we do this with soul Melter, we don't get anything accurate. For example, if we seperate by Stone, we get nothing, and if we seperate by Sword, we get a 14 minute time as 1st place despite people doing better runs.

dk3 Has been keeping a list of the best times for each Ability in Soul Melter here:

My idea was to copy the runs onto this page. I asked dk3 and he agreed. He asked some other TA runners and they all agreed.

There are 3 options: Put them all onto the main board (so you can use the variables to find wr) Make a specific board just to show off the best times for the abilities (basically to copy dks's board) (This would make it so the rankings aren't disrupted and the TA runners wouldn't have to use 2 different boards) Not do this at all

I've sort of attempted this with KRTDL and the separate characters, but here we can actually do it with every single ability

This is more experimental than anything, and if it works well here we can do it for future Kirby games as well

I ask that you only vote if you have a run under 3 minutes for Sizzling Threat or 10 minutes for Soul Melter. As an aside, the JP runners all wanted a seperate board.

So just to clarify, this isn't talking about adding a category for every ability, but rather copying in another board with more info, and we want to know whether to merge the two boards, add in the new board as a separate board, or just not do anything. Correct?

Can you submit runs under somebody else’s name? Or would it just be they can submit their own runs.

United States

I honestly don't understand anything that is happening here so ima just not vote.

England

I'll add all the runs myself

United States

Okay

Soul melter Took me Only 1 attempt on March 17th (Completion date) + 100% I got KSA AT: March 16th

England

So no votes have been made in the past few days, I think it is reasonable to add it now I know a separate board wasn't the winner, but it was only 1 vote off, and all the Jp runners wanted a separate board, so I'll add it separately Surprisingly no one wan against the idea

Wait now my run isn't even there anymore. Does that mean everyone's run that isn't Japanese is deleted? When I click my Soul Melter run on my profile it just redirects me to 5.0 difficulty.

England

I tried going on your run from your profile and from the boards and your run isn't' missing

England

I have now added it If it turns out this leader board was a terrible idea I will go ahead and delete it If it turns out to be a good idea then we can do this for future Kirby games as well

United States

Ah, my bad, Demolition14. For some reason my computer just redirects me to the wrong thing. Also I was clicking miscellaneous then soul melter instead of the soul melter next to the 5.0 tab thing.
