Question regarding when time ends
6 years ago
Sweden

Hey, so I'm going to submit my run but I'm not sure what time I should put as I want the most exact time possible.

My question is what does "when the final boss is defeated" really mean? When does the final boss count as defeated?

  • Is it when the last hit connects?
  • Is it when the final boss's health is fully depleted?
  • Is it when Chiaki's text appears on screen?

Because as of now the rules for when the time ends is rather ambiguous and not specific so it's hard to understand what you really mean. Sorry if I'm making this a big deal, I just don't want to have my time to be later than it actually is.

Hello, sorry if the rules were not so specific, they can still be improved.

The idea is to stop the time when the final boss is being "burned", which would be exactly when the text of Chiaki appears on the screen.

Sorry to be so picky and all but when the boss is being "burned" and when Chiaki's text first appears does not happen on the same frame.

Ok. I checked it out. Ends in the first frame of text: https://ibb.co/b7p3dk

New Start Timing

The time now starts on the 1st frame that level 1-1 is visible after the fade in. All runs have been retimed to follow the new timing method.
