Please explain?

Firstly, it's very clear from the get go you don't like me and probably never have. You wouldn't know if there was a mod vote for anything or not because you're not a mod anymore and you know why you aren't so please wind your neck in.

Secondly, there was no community vote as to whether to swap it, and it wasn't even my idea to do it in the end it was Asters. We also checked against the community vote from last year, and 90% of the people who voted no haven't done more than a single run I the past 3 years or haven't even ran the game once so how can their votes count when it was for active runners. 3 of the active ones have changed their minds since which made the actual vote overwhelmingly positive which was one of the reasons we did it.

Thirdly, the mod vote was actually positive to archive the old IGT runs because there was no other way of doing. The only other alternative was nuking the runs entirely from the site which we didn't want.

And in your own words, you can still run the game in any way you want you just can't submit it to the boards. All we have done is remove an unfair timing method and replaced it with a fair one that works.

All you're doing here is making yourself look worse than you already do to the mods, so I suggest that you stop while you are ahead.

Salad, you silly goose. I've been ahead. You've just just made it harder to get an actual WR. Bye Falica.

I'm just gonna give my opinion i think timing everything with LRT is good due to the IGT of RE5 resetting on checkpoints and being able to manipulate it is really not a good timing method so i see that using LRT for everything is a good decision this is just my opinion.

And that's a perfectly fine opinion. But, here me out, there's a reason I've rejected 100's of run due to non tactical resets. As you may know, a tactical reset means progression. A non tactical reset is due to a mistake. Fair enough. Yeah? At top levels play, you can't mess up if you want a good time. So why dictate a slight inventory change that doesn't mess with the games actual IGT? In NG runs you have to sell stuff, upgrade change a rocket in and out. Thus why that would count via RTA.

Follow on: I'm not bitching and go on because I want the best time. I already have it in co-op NG+ thanks to Aster. I'm going on because this is just against the spirit of the game. Gentlemen and some ladies, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

"In NG runs you have to sell stuff, upgrade change a rocket in and out. Thus why that would count via RTA" i agree with you on this one and i think that maybe if we timed everything with LRT but for NG+ make the timer don't count the "shop inventory" maybe that would be better for everyone cuz in NG+ you don't need that shop you just need to skip it and i liked the IGT for this one but what i didn't like about the IGT timing before is that if you make a mistake you have to restart the whole run again "At top levels play, you can't mess up if you want a good time" it's true but remember that there's also a thing that is called "f*ck RNG" and that would really messes you up even if you're playing really good so the LRT gives you a chance to try again when something like that happens

True. Buy LRT does mean load remover time. But we all know that. Riddle me this; why does Salad's new timer take out QTE timing? There's only 2 of those that count IGT. Him and Matt's NG run is a 1:19:xx Some NG+ can't get that.

The new version isn't for taking out QTE times, it takes out cutscene times just like NG does because on co-op cutscenes skip slower depending on your connection to your co-op partner. The new timer emulates the IGT other than the shop menus. As much as you hate it menuing is a skill and it's very telling that you don't seem to care that NG+'s RTA is 30 minutes slower than the IGT, whereas NG's is 10 minutes slower. By your logic you're not allowed to fuck up but you're allowed to sit in menus deciding what you want to do next for free. Which just goes against it being a speedrun. Also, while it is called an LRT it has never solely been meant to only remove load times, it can also be used to emulate the IGT should it be dog shit and its like that in many games.

And the "if it isn't broke don't fix it" is such a shit take, it's literally broken and therefore needs fixing. It should have been done years ago but the old blood are too stuck in their ways to learn how to menu and instead whine and complain about a better timing method that has quite literally no drawbacks to it and makes it a fair and level playing field for everyone.

Stuck in the ways, eh? Add me on Discord. Let's talk. Also, your debunking was redundant. Is an inventory screen a load? Man, just add me and let me school you.

Follow post: Salad, you broke it. And stop cussing so much. Mr. Representative

All you're doing here is showing people why you aren't a mod anymore.

But what do I know, I'm just the NG guy.

Kentucky, USA

Purely because I left. And yes, you are. So why mess with NG+? Accept me on Discord, please.

Again, and I cannot stress this enough. It was Asters idea and not mine, so please stop pestering me when I'm not the one you should be crying to. Also, regardless of whether you left you would have been kicked from the mod team and you know damn well why.

Can mods kicked now? Belive me, you would have kicked many moons ago. Is there any reason you don't want to talk one on one?

Locked.
