Full-game timing changes and details
6 years ago
Georgia, USA

We are doing a bit of overhauling on the rules for full-game runs.

A. All full game runs (except Exhibition Circuit) will now use a standardized starting split for real time, which is when the first course of the circuit is confirmed and the stage begins loading. This applies to 100% and the All Circuits runs as well.

B. Single-circuit runs (including both No Retire and Any% runs) will be ranked according to in-game time (IGT) to ensure that saving new records does not factor into the final time. However, both real time and IGT should be submitted for these runs for reference. You can easily add up each of your course times using the calculator here: http://www.unitarium.com/time-calculator

C. 100%, All Circuits (No Retire), and All Circuits will be ranked according to real time. IGT can be noted in the description, but should not be submitted in the form. This is because the full-game leaderboards are sorted by IGT as the default. If we do not enter any IGT for these boards, they will rank by real time as intended. We do not have to worry about saving times being a disadvantage in these three categories because all runs will start from a fresh save file.

D. Exhibition Circuit will be ranked according to in-game time. You should not submit real time in the form for Exhibition Circuit.

E. Round all real times down to the second.

Old runs will be re-timed to the new timing method in the coming days.

Please let me know if there are any questions or concerns. Thank you and keep wave racing!

I am in the process of updating the rules now, so it may be a bit before everything is up to date in the rules sections. I will update this post when this has been completed.

Edit: All rulesets should be updated now. Please let me know if anything is incorrect.

Oops, I made a mistake. Just a naming thing, though.

100% needs to include completing the full tutorial in order to be a true 100% speedrun, as that is how you unlock the stunt trial on Dolphin Park. I'll add a true 100% category and re-name the current 100% to All Circuits (No Retire).

All runs will be re-timed using the new method as soon as possible. I will update this thread when the process is complete. If there are any issues I will post here as well, and attempt to reach out to any involved parties here or via Discord (https://discord.gg/DMkqQU8).

I've re-timed all of the old runs. I've also left a mod note for each run where I've made the change. Let me know if you want that text removed for your runs.
