NetherlandsHey all, so for those not aware yet, we have added an extensions leaderboards on speedrun.com Shine Thief has already been migrated to the extensions leaderboards and we plan do add more categories to those leaderboards so if you got ideas, be sure to post them on the forum thread at https://www.speedrun.com/mk8dxce/forum
Now here's the next part. We also had plans to migrate 32 Tracks to the extensions but did not do so just yet. Since the release of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, 32 tracks has sort of become a legacy category due to the 48 tracks option being available to everyone, not just those who paid for DLC like in MK8U. For some community members, it didn't make sense to have this category anymore in Deluxe, because 32 Tracks would be able to be completed with Retro and Bonus Tracks for example, or Bonus and Nitro. Instead of moving 32 Tracks right away, we decided it would be more appropriate to vote on this as a community.

So I decided to add subcategories to a certain category list in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, but when I added those, the runs were gone. After getting rid of it, they were back again. Is there a way to place those runs back after setting the subcategory? Thanks in advance!
Just a little update on how to time for example a Retro tracks or DLC Tracks run from a 32/48 Tracks run.
If you do a 32 tracks run, you can time both the Nitro and Retro tracks. Nitro should just be start to when you cross Rainbow Road. Retro tracks should be timed from the moment you cross the finish line on Rainbow Road until you cross the finish line on N64 Rainbow Road. DLC Tracks would be from when you cross finish line on N64 Rainbow Road until Big Blue finish line.
Example: you cross the finish line on Rainbow Road at 40:00 and your N64 Rainbow Road split would be 1:18:00, then your Retro Tracks Run would be a 38:00.
If this seems unclear to anyone, let me know.

As people over the time requested, Nitro/Retro/DLC Tracks now include No Items as a subcategory. No more RNG for those who dislike it and still want to post their times for the suitable category. It has now been split up in Items and No Items and under those Subcategories, 150cc and 200cc. The respective times are still where they belong, but again. If a time is by some reason removed/misplaced and we havn't noticed. Let us know!
So as of 2/12/2016, we implemented the new subcategories that have been on sr.com for a while. Wtih this, we do no longer need to use variables, and shows the correct placement on a category on your own profile. For example, No items 150cc would show 1st place but on that persons profile, it would show 20th for example due to 200cc also being sort of merged in the leaderboards. Now, this is no longer an issue.
I'd like to address, that Admins have done all the work to this so, if there is a time misplaced/missing, do let us know in this post. I've only found 1 misplaced time as of now, so if you noticed that one or more of your or someone else's time(s) is/are missing just leave a comment.
To get rid of any confusion which has been around for a few months, I like to make clear that Top 5 times will require the nessecary video proof in order to be accepted. This has been requested by a number of runners and since there was never a set standard since new mods have been assigned, I'd like to make it clear for now what has been decided. Runs on the leaderboard Top 5 with no video before the date of this post, will not be affected.
