Could https://www.speedrun.com/skylinememorial/full_game and https://www.speedrun.com/overdrivingtr/full_game be tagged as Based on "The Need for Speed"? (https://www.speedrun.com/nfs1) They are localized ports with completely different vehicles so we decided to treat them as separate games.

This leaderboard: https://www.speedrun.com/multiarkham needs the "Multi-game" game type and should be part of the DC Comics series: https://www.speedrun.com/dc

United States

@Lonne I could, but it might cause issues. I'm not sure what exactly they'd fall under for that, either. Do you have an idea of what exactly you want set for this beyond simply listing it as "Based on NFS"?

@ShikenNuggets Done.

Any update on adding the Valve Index as a platform?

United Kingdom

Hi could this leaderboard https://www.speedrun.com/SegaSonic_Bros. be part of the Sonic series https://www.speedrun.com/sonic please?

Hello, I moderate the Speedrun.com pages for Job Simulator and Vacation Simulator and I'm Wondering if you guys could add the Valve Index to the list of platforms so people who are running the games can use the correct platform for submitting runs.

@Liv The index controllers allow unique input (finger tracking), and at the moment boards cannot differentiate between these inputs and those of a traditional vr controller.

This is my main reason for wanting the index to be added as a separate platform.

@HowDenKing Why are you asking us to add these games to a series when you don't moderate any of them? You do realize a lot of mods get real annoyed with us when we start adding games within a series that they may very well not want in there. Have you at least attempted to contact any of them about getting these games within these series at all? Pokemon is a series I at least am aware of that they don't want strange games tossed in there. All of these games seemed to fit within the realm of Picross....regardless, if the moderators of these games want to post here, please feel free to direct them here.

Edit: I wasn't aware that half of this information wasn't known aside of a post I made in the old thread, I've gone ahead and amended the first post about this process. A long while back, we had problems with moderators of games and series complaining to us about us adding games to a series for a variety of reasons and thus we agreed to restrict the process of how we add games to a series. I apologize if I come off a bit rough but I wanted to make sure that others also knew/understood why we simply do it this way, making it entirely up to the game moderators and/or series moderators to have said game added.

Hi, I'm a mod of all these games.

For me it would be OK to add these games to these series too. But I can understand when the mods of these series also have to agree to that theirself.

So for my side it would be OK.

@Galactico All these games seem to already be part of your series. You do not get to make the call about these games being onto other series, the only one added to Picross series out of the list has been Picross DS. So, HowDen will need to contact the respected series moderators for Zelda, Hello Kitty and Pokemon to seek approval of these games being added onto their other series as well.

Requesting https://www.speedrun.com/lswtcsce to be added to the series https://www.speedrun.com/lego . Here is my permission from the series mod https://imgur.com/a/15vF6DF . Also requesting for the base game to be set as https://www.speedrun.com/lswtcs .

@WiiSuper

Edit: My mistake, the boards looked so much a like I thought it was already part of the series. Done, however is there some reason the title of the original board is (PC/Console)? It's kinda pointless in this case since you have platforms already listed under the game.
