  1. It clashes with the other categories on the leaderboard. All full-game categories involve completing a multitude of levels in normal mode. This is trying to beat a single level in practice mode as fast as possible. You could argue that it would be fine if it was an IL but...
  2. There's little to no depth to it. All individual levels are some sort of minigame, most with an in-game timer. In these levels, there is actual depth to it, where certain strategies save time over others. In Silent Circles, the only way you can save time is by not dying.
  3. Resize bug trivializes competition. You can skip all the high-CPS parts by abusing a glitch. Essentially, a run would just involve playing half of the level and skipping the rest. There's already people who have substantial progress on the wave, so it would be nearly maxed out. You could argue that this should be banned for this category only. Firstly, why ban a glitch in a single category when the entire board allows it? Secondly, having to spend hours on an impossible 2-player mini wave spam corridor could be considered trivial. There's nothing skillful or interesting about it. It's just luck.
  4. It's not a rated level. Every category on this leaderboard involves beating a rated level.
  5. Every speedrun of this level nerfs the level. This is done because Player 2's wave can't buffer inputs while respawning from a checkpoint. The level being 2-player is a core part of what makes Silent Circles so infamous. If the only way you can do the speedrun is by editing and nerfing the level, then it is an innately flawed idea. You can also just place checkpoints where Player 1 can buffer and Player 2 can't (whenever both players are moving up). Sure it drastically increases the time it takes to do the run, but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

Lastly, no one in our community seems interested in the idea, at least in my experience. No one in our Discord server has discussed it, and the people who have requested it in the forums don't have runs of their own. The only reason this category has this level of popularity is solely because of three big-name YouTubers. Only four people did the run, and even if we did add the category, there's no guarantee that they'll submit the runs or that they will even be allowed (see Reason 5). I personally don't believe that most runners will attempt this. I've seen meme categories get added to leaderboards only for them to die out immediately. This is a fad.

As a speedrunning leaderboard, we should have standards. At best, this is something that would be in a category extensions leaderboard, and even that's pushing it, in my eyes.

@MyTH193_ Who said it was being delayed to December?

I swear there used to be a thread that requested this exact same category. In any case, we're not adding this for a multitude of reasons.

I don't know if anyone mentioned this before, but I really miss being able to filter a series page's games by platform. Not only that, but I could use platform filters whenever I use the search bar. Hope I'm not the only one with this sentiment.

The Arcade games that currently have categories are there because they are (as far as I know) the only ones with an actual ending or don't require any membership to play. What would the categories for the suggested arcade games be?

I'd be more inclined to add them if you had an actual speedrun linked and explained the category's objective or goal instead of just demanding it.

There isn't a reason to track this level because it hasn't been speedran.

I mean, what really is there to say about it? The update’s delayed. Nothing we can do about it.

In other news, I likely won’t get my PC until December. So, yikes.

I think speedrun.com's search tries to either find the game's displayed name or URL.

Since "Pokemon Dash" without the accent doesn't match the display name or URL, it doesn't appear. But if you type it with the accent, it shows up.

I think it seems to be an oversight and that site staff could find a workaround if it was brought up to them.

I don't know why this is the case, but if you want to do the two spaces thing, you have to use the markdown mode for it to even actually save correctly. There's so many times where I have to fix a minor error in the rules, but forget to turn on markdown, and it ends up breaking all the line breaks. I end up having to go back and tediously fix everything. It's super annoying.

Good, because I’m not going to have my PC until November.

I think he’s referring to the ads, not the profile featured runs. I have to agree, they’re super obstructive when I’m viewing the site on mobile.

@Merl_ That is a playground-level insult at best and heavily ironic considering that's coming from the same person who literally made a second thread of this BS.
