Hello Scott Pilgrim Speedrunners,

We now have a new way of coming together as a community to discuss Speedruns and General enjoyment of the Scott Pilgrim games alike.

As we are anticipating an influx of new interest in the Scott Pilgrim games with the release of the Complete Edition, it was time that we had a better and more robust way of communicating as a community.

The server is still a work in progress and changes may be made as we go forward, but I would like to invite everyone who may have an interest.

Please follow the link here: https://discord.gg/mhEaVb6zKv Please let me know if there are any questions or issues.

Thanks.

Hello.

I have currently requested for a new leaderboard with Speedrun.com for the "complete edition" I have been checking it regularly for days now, with no change still. We are hoping to have it so "complete edition" will have it's own leaderboard since it technically is a new "version" of the game.

As far as a discord goes, I will have to look into that one going forward.

I expect the speedrun community for this game will grow quite a lot soon, with this new release.

I will do my best to keep everyone posted on any new developments going forward.

Thanks!

I have been communicating with the SR officials in regards to this topic. As it stands now, the current plan is to have "complete edition" have its own leaderboard, thus turning "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game" into a series of games (with the original and the new.) The new board will be up when we are closer to an official release date.

I can post more information closer to that time if needed.

Thanks!

Hello everyone. It was brought into question: should xbox360 and ps3 versions of the runs be split into separate categories due to the cut scene skip (glitch) in older versions of the game.

I would like to hear everyone's opinion about the matter before making any changes to the leaderboards.

Thank you all!

I havn't added the content version for v9 to the board yet. Thanks for bringing that up. I will make some changes to the board that will add that difficulty.

Well, maxing out all stats at the video store is why that route is considered safer. In Wallace's shop, I personally only max out Speed and ATK, so this is why I consider it a bit faster personally.

As for actually testing it out and actually timing both ways for an official time difference, I have not done that.

Hey everyone!

Due to some recent discussions, I decided to update the leader board for this game slightly. I separated and added some new subcategories to the board.

I manually went in and updated all the runs to fit the new category scheme. (thank goodness there wasn't too many)

If there are any issues, concerns, or questions please let me know and I will try to help.

Thanks everyone!

No. as soon as you select a second character, I would consider that a multi-player run. Single player run, you do the whole thing with one character, from beginning to end.

Hey, glad to hear you are interested in this game.

As far as what "cheats" are allowed, technically speaking, Power of Love is fair game as far as I am concerned. (I honestly forgot that cheat existed) I am not sure how everyone else feels about it, due to the speedrun community of this game being basically dead now days. Any% is basically starting the game with a clean save file for your characters, then completing the game by any means necessary without any outside resources. (Such as modding the game or Game Shark)

So after bringing this up, it may be a good idea to add a sub category for "no cheats" in the future.

As for the routing choices, there are a couple reasons I use Wallace's shop: 1. being it's technically cheaper in the long run, and you get more stats for your money. The video store, you have to pay off Scott's late fees before you can do anything, which takes a couple more minutes (although this route is less risky). 2. When you do the glitch by the park to walk off screen, the entire level is loaded, but the enemies do no spawn in without the camera being there, so you can actually go all the way to the final door like that, but I like to try to hit Wallace's shop along the way, to get my stats and reset the camera, then move on. For me, it's kinda hard to tell where you are at without the camera and it's kinda easy to get lost or even miss that last door, and from my experience...i hit Wallace's shop more often than the final door, so I killed two birds with one stone.

These routes haven't had an extreme amount of testing done with them, so if you found some tips or tricks along the way, feel free to share with the community!

I hope this helps answer some of your questions.

I feel that would be a bit tedious and kind of redundant. I'm not sure about that one. I guess if that category becomes high in demand, then maybe...but for right now. I think this is okay. Doesn't seem like too many people are interested in this game anyway.

Hey everyone. I have done several runs of this game and seem to have a lot of issues with the minigame "face lift".

I was wondering if anyone else was having issues with the scoring in that game, because to me the scoring system makes no sense (especially for one pattern in particular). I, obviously, get the face as close as possible and get LESS than 50% (which is the default score you get when you don't touch the face at all) then, when i do it again, I do the same exact thing, and will get somewhere in the 70s or 80s.

has anyone else had issues like that? Or does anyone know how that game is scored, so that adjustments can be made?

hey there. so when i started doing some runs of this game. I was trying to think of some cool category ideas. My community and I did a lot of brainstorming, back before the game page was created here on SR.

While I think that the "all mini-game" category is fine. I think it would be cool to also add a category for 100% or "all stars" as well. Aka getting 1st place in all mini-games (300 stars).

Doing the game this way could lead to significantly different times than "all mini-games" and is the technical 100% completion of mini-game island.

I wanted to get other's opinions on this idea. Thanks!

this is a rom-hack of Super Mario RPG, created by Darkkeffka. you can find out more here: http://www.insanedifficulty.com/board/index.php?/forum/96-super-mario-rpg-armageddon/

My time for this category was 1:20:54.

here is the video link for proof: (the timer may look slightly off but that is because my Elgato Game Capture delays the game feed slightly)

Also made the final split on the "next" instead of at the axe. If that means anything.

So I recently completed a Run of "100 Mario Challenge (All Difficulties w/ No Skips)" Where I basically ran all the Difficulties back to back using no skips. I was told to present this category idea on this forum to see how people felt about this, if this should be a legit category.
