[Finished] Switching Individual Levels leaderboard to IGT
4 years ago
Pays de la Loire, France

Hey guys,

Starting today, we'll switch the Individual Level leaderboard from RTA to IGT since the time we're talking about. There is quite a few notes about that:

  • During this process, we'll not review any IL submission, it will take a while since there are hundreds of runs to modify but we've already splitted out the work between the mods.
  • Individual Levels without a video evidence or with a video we can't see the In-game time will be rejected.
  • Starting from today too, Individual Level submissions will require video proof to be on the leaderboards.
  • For Individual Worlds we've decided to not change our current rules at this time.
  • Once we've moved all runs, we'll rewrite a bit the IL rules to make them more clear

As I understand it, only the IL Leaderboards are going to be affected by this change, which means that full-game Any% runs are still going to be timed by RTA

@Toogs Yes. There's no way we'll switch to IGT on full game categories, it would be a pain to verify. Though runs under 25:00 on Any% will be timed without loads and that update is coming soon.

@ShaneH27 As for now, we're not looking to edit video proof rules for full game categories.

In general, would be stupid to count the IGT for the time in categories that are more than 1 level and that some time of it you spend it in the map, because

  1. would be not any importance in the out map, so not problem with that time and no problema with the route (ex. the route of 100% is adjuste to be better than to do in other order lol)

  2. you can spend all the time you like it going, for example, to Toad houses, and using that Power-Ups; is more, with that, you can get Penguin-Suits in world 5, so inclusive the any% would change it in that aspect

  3. the time can be so milimetric and so short in some levels to do count it in entire MariotimesW, to start, the cannons xd

Ps: MariotimeW = 1 second of NSMBW lul :D xd

@Acoma12 it depends. It starts at either 300, 400, 500, 600, or 700 as far as I'm aware

Update: I've finished W1, 2 and 3. The other mods will be on the other worlds soon enough.

Gix also finished W6 few days ago so we're almost half of the way.

Would the IGT end timing for boss fights like airships and towers be the same, for example does IGT for leaderboards stop at the last hit or when IGT stops

@BMAN when IGT stops. But that will be explained in the rules once we've moved all runs.

Update 2: I've finished W8 because we got some runs pending in the queue on that world until we've done the changes.

Also if you've ILs to submit in W1,2,3,6 or 8, Feel free to submit them and we'll review them with the new rules.

Don't forget now a video is required for any entry. The time is calculated by the initial IGT of the level minus when IGT froze when you touch the flagpole, or last hit on bosses (example if you got 513 in 8-C, it's 700-513= 187 so 3 mins 07 and not 5 mins and 13 secs). The IGT must also be readable, otherwise it will be rejected. Except that all other ILs rules like no star at the beginning, no start from checkpoint will remain intact.

Rules will be updated soon too.
