If my opinion counts, I'd vote No, for reasons mentioned by SilentKaster a page back, sure run that way for fun and a challenge but I don't think it requires it's own leaderboard on here.

That's honestly my thoughts on it. My "No" is more based on my thoughts on how the category would do. But if it has interested runners, I see no harm in adding it to misc.

@everyone Hmm It is funny how I see complains about "no one will run it / more than 2 /3 runners" when PS / PSN / GC / DC have 1, 2, 3 max per category ? ? ? But I mean it was an idea, good to hear the opinion of mods and "community" here.

I'm not sure how non-PC platforms factor into being compared with what is essentially Any% w/ picking up files%, though.

This is the reason no discussion actually goes anywhere in RE, particularly RE3. When some kind of proposal is made, some sound disagreements and counter proposals get made and then it reverts into some childish discussion whilst trying to passive aggressively attack another set of individuals for no reason.

Why is a part of the argument for Jill's Diary% partially attacking already existing categories? If you wanna attack RE3 for having too many categories, doing it in a proposal for another category is perhaps not the best place for that. Also because people are basically being insulted passively for no real reason.

This could've been a simple proposal > numerical vote + each person gives a reason > category made or declined. For whatever reason, it wasn't. Using "community" as some kind of buzzword for someone to get their way... yeah, that's not how it works. Being a part of a community means you have some form of respect for each other. Someone who is on that level doesn't come into a thread and jump to passive insults not even 2 posts into their point.

@Liv I'm not complaining about the amount of categories lol I actually like it !!! Adding an extra category literally takes 2 clicks and it hides under Misc. if anything, so I really don't see the big deal about it personally. I was just quoting how some people were saying "ohh it will have no runners, there is not gonna be more than x,y,z # runners for this category anyways" when there is a lot of segments of the page that are literally empty with 1 or 2 runs or none, so adding another category for "one , 2 runners" would really be a big deal? So that logic of not adding it because it won't have runners makes no sense to me. This is literally a place to just put runs and share it with other and maybe have some competition and have FUN, but it is sad to see how everything turns into negativity and so technical lol where did the fun in GAMES go? , but oh well that is all I gotta say.

You do realise what Category Extensions is right? Jills diary will be added to it when the request is accepted.

Edit; god damn, told myself i would stay out of it because i don't give a fuck but a solution has been requested and you will soon have the category. This thread is done lol

I mainly just don't get why this couldn't have just put a vote with a reason for each person participating from the start. With nothing of what was on the last 2 pages.

Seriously? A couple of months ago I spoke with @Julian about adding this category, and I will give you the same answer he gave me.

Take jill's diary, it does not affect the end of the game at all, it would end the game with an extra challenge, it seems stupid for you to propose meaningless categories.

Guys please. Its so sad to see the re3 forum being a scene for drama and personal attacks yet again. We are supposed to be a community and what we love and share is the passion for speedrunning one of the best Resident Evil games of all the time. This was just a suggestion from a fellow runner and it should be respected, so I think a simple no or yes answer should be sufficent here.

/peace out from an old timer.

im with magnoozl here. the drama and personal attacks that happen on these forums is ridiculous. there is no place for that anywhere. while i wont run the category if 2+ people want to run it then it has every right to be added to a leaderboard or a category extension. (these are the stipulations for a few of the games i run) look beyond the "free world record" bullshit that has become the theme and the meme within this community some people just like to have the times on a leaderboard for others to compare against. everyone needs to realize that not everyone speedruns to get a record. some people do it as a hobby me included ill learn a speedrun just because i think tech in the game is cool and seeing where i am compared to others and helping to push others i see streaming a game i run to do better even if its better then me is awesome. dont belittle your fellow runners encourage and grow

@hiddenproject lol you seem quite triggered at this proposal even though most of your runs are another one of the categories I put up there NG+ so YOU'RE WELCOME !!! wdncN

@wolfdnc, the truth is that I was not at the time you proposed that category, it bothers me is the fact that I proposed that category and none of the mods showed interest in it, even you told me it was a waste of time, not would have no problem if they wanted to add it, just put a vote, I really like the idea, but for no other reason had proposed before, sorry if it sounded stupid the other comment, as I said, I just bothered that.

There you have it. JILL'S DIARY% will be added eventually along with any other categories people want.

Locking this thread since the main topic has now been adressed. If you wanna propose some other categories then please use the thread: https://www.speedrun.com/Resident_Evil_3_Nemesis_Category_Extensions/thread/i6a17/1#oeo1u
