Edit: My mistake, the boards looked so much a like I thought it was already part of the series. Done, however is there some reason the title of the original board is (PC/Console)? It's kinda pointless in this case since you have platforms already listed under the game.
@Galactico All these games seem to already be part of your series. You do not get to make the call about these games being onto other series, the only one added to Picross series out of the list has been Picross DS. So, HowDen will need to contact the respected series moderators for Zelda, Hello Kitty and Pokemon to seek approval of these games being added onto their other series as well.
@HowDenKing Why are you asking us to add these games to a series when you don't moderate any of them? You do realize a lot of mods get real annoyed with us when we start adding games within a series that they may very well not want in there. Have you at least attempted to contact any of them about getting these games within these series at all? Pokemon is a series I at least am aware of that they don't want strange games tossed in there. All of these games seemed to fit within the realm of Picross....regardless, if the moderators of these games want to post here, please feel free to direct them here.
Edit: I wasn't aware that half of this information wasn't known aside of a post I made in the old thread, I've gone ahead and amended the first post about this process. A long while back, we had problems with moderators of games and series complaining to us about us adding games to a series for a variety of reasons and thus we agreed to restrict the process of how we add games to a series. I apologize if I come off a bit rough but I wanted to make sure that others also knew/understood why we simply do it this way, making it entirely up to the game moderators and/or series moderators to have said game added.
Online speedruns are fine.
It depends on the context, if it isn't falling into a type of PvP then its fine.
Sorry, I've been away over the weekend.

You can use whatever you want....though emulator is banned from obtaining a time under 1:25:00. As for 3DS direct capture there is a thread about NTR here; https://www.speedrun.com/lm3ds/thread/8fmky

No, 100% is simply considered A-rank for Normal Mansion and S-Rank in Hidden Mansion 100% including collecting the boos. I realize the name for 100% doesn't make much sense but at the time everyone wanted to make it similar to the setup on the original LM board.
What I've done within the discord;
- Added a bot for logging (this is for moderation for staff)
- Straighten up the channels a bit more (clearer names and permissions)
- Added staff roles, game roles (not completely active yet) and runner roles. Any suggestions further with roles I'm open to. Plan to use secondary bot so that users can simply click on a reaction to get a role.
- There is now a channel to keep track of people who are applying for game mod (aside of this thread)
Hello everyone, it's been awhile since I've posted but letting you guys know if you are interested for the game please join the community discord server for the game. It would be important to be there if selected and to be able to have an presence for the community (the invite is in the first post).
I've done some minor pep work today for the discord as well, I will keep checking this thread in case if no one has interest in being part of it and again I want to make sure we have everything up to speed during the first week of release (which is in a mere two days).
Ideally, you should post here; https://www.speedrun.com/The_Site/thread/v2uni
Quick note about NTR;
NTR doesn't really work that well with the original 2DS/3DS, I do not recommend installing it on these as it won't work that well. If by chance you do get it to work, the streaming method will only give you maybe 5fps and the reason for this is because NTR uses the extra memory/speed the New 2DS/3DS has to provide a good experience.
There is also something called HzMod, which doesn't make use of NTR but it still doesn't give good FPS and it crashes on most games.
Also keep in mind that NTR does not work locally which means if you want to use this to stream and do co-op runs, it's not going to work because the software uses the local wireless of the 3DS to stream the data and the 3DS will toss you an error about it being in use.
So in summary
NTR - New 3DS/2DS - Yes. NTR - Original 3DS/2DS - NO. NTR - For EITHER version for CO-OP - NO.
@S. I'm quite sure you haven't read any of the links in Kirkq's first post or anything else anyone has told you.
You have to be trolling at this point, what part of "ban" do you not seem to understand or rolling back a leaderboard after the damage is done if its that excessive?
What, did you think regular users who go around submitting fake runs and using alts is okay or something? Because its on the same stage for a ban and restoration if its needed.
You had asc. enabled which made the times ascend to the top that were slower. I've disabled this for you for both categories, feel free to change it if you'd like again.
@fepnascimento Absolutely not, it is unbelievable that you've been going around submitting old playthroughs of video games onto various leaderboards. This constant moderation sniping has gotten old, most of these runs in no way appear to be any form of speedrunning and just looking at the upload date of these playthroughs is baffling, I've actually sat here reviewing some of the runs personally and all I can do is just facepalm over it. Even ignoring all of that, there is no actual attempt of "speedrunning" these games.
@Akja Resubmit the game, provide the notes and see what happens. This thread is for moderation requests, not about game requests. As for papers, please we'll see what we can do.
@WilsonWildcardYT Refer to the first post of this thread. Your request will not be fulfilled at this time.
@Akja I took a quick look at gameplay of what this game was and I personally think this game is far too generic to be added, seems like your typical baseball game. If the speedrun of it is different, you could always resubmit and express what makes it a speedrun that we aren't seeing (strats, tricks, etc etc)
Quit posting in this thread I'm getting tired of cleaning up your posts @witchakorn this thread is for reporting bots, if you aren't doing that then please stop posting.
@S. What does "Abuse of moderator privileges, such as vandalizing game pages" mean to you?
On this page - https://www.speedrun.com/rules
Under "Site Bans"
Yes, it is against the rules. People will get banned for it, and those leaderboards can be restored.
The only way in general that you can request a leaderboard prior to release is if you are a moderator of said series/games based under that IP (this is because those users are more familiar to not just moderation but have a standard behind them). Site staff may also manually add them to prevent high-profile titles from being sniped.
There are sometimes other cases where the game was released early (or some kind of beta), we'll try to review the game the best we can and apply a "Prerelease" tag onto the board if its deemed okay.
It all just depends, that rule is now three weeks I believe.
The game is nearing release, I have had some minor trouble figuring out which moderators from the other games should be added here as I feel this is high priority to prevent sniping from game requests. I highly likely will not be running this game, I would like to get everything in order by no longer than a week after release.
Summary • I would like to get 3-4 moderators added to this game that qualify to do so. • Categories/etc will not be added right away until after the games release on June 28th. • I would also like to get those moderators setup in the discord. • We will not be adding series moderators at this time.

@ChairGTables You will need to directly get into contact with Pac, which you can do so via e-mail in the about page or send him a DM in the speedrun.com discord server. https://discord.gg/0h6sul1ZwHVpXJmK

Also from this point onwards we've adjusted the requirements with marathons, everyone can find this information on the first post of this thread. Eventually all information regarding marathon guidelines/rules will be moved towards one of the SRC rule pages that we have. Questions regarding this should be made in a new thread.
