If you have had interest in playing in our speedrun tournaments, as head tournament organizer, I am inviting YOU to join our Discord server, if you haven't already, and check out our #tournaments channel where I have posted a document of rules we would follow for future tournaments, which would include putting together MONTHLY tournaments! We would start the monthly Pokémon Puzzle League tournament in November after the next major tournament, but we would transition to monthly tournaments for each of Pokémon Puzzle League and Tetris Attack.

I welcome your thoughts on improving the speedrun tournaments here: https://discord.gg/invite/0ZHoUXwTddfKwz1t

To reflect the rules for the upcoming speedrun tournament, there is now a whitelist of emulators that will be allowed for leaderboard submission. You may now use the following emulators:

Project64 versions 1.6 and above Dolphin versions 5.0 and above

Project64 version 2 was previously banned in the SpeedRunsLive ruleset due to an increased frame rate at which the games ran, but we never gathered any evidence to confirm this. With the release of Project64 version 3, this rule no longer serves a functional purpose. We encourage every emulator user to use the most recent versions for the most stable gameplay experience.

The rules that apply to every category are also now consolidated in the Main Rules tab.

Our annual Pokémon Puzzle League speedrun tournament is opening up on August 1, but the tournament page is now available for review and comment! There are multiple tournaments to sign up for and a new way to qualify for seeds in the group/pool stage!

If you are interested in joining the tournament and have concerns about the changes to the format for this year, join our Discord and give us your thoughts: https://discord.gg/invite/0ZHoUXwTddfKwz1t

Happy puzzling!
