I think what I meant to say was to keep Xbox and PS3 as the same for the IL runs, but to have them separated for Any%, 100%, etc.

Also, I fixed the discord link so that it sends people to the right server now.

  1. If both versions are that similar and the loading times between races are the main difference, splitting them only for fullgame is perfectly fine for me.

  2. No idea what you did with the Discord link - the link Rusty posted already expired, so I created a new invite link and added that here: https://discordapp.com/invite/Q3EbkU5

This link is for Rusty's Discord, it's permanent and it works. So... wtf? :D

Yeah, the only difference is full-game, the two consoles have minor differences but its not like one track is a second faster than another.... well, not yet anyway lol

OH HELL sorry about my inactivity, The reason I didn't get any of your messages on Twitter was because I had notifications from "people I don't follow" turned off. Had I seen them I would've been able to get back to you. Regardless, I'm glad that someone's stepped up to get this community up and running, since up until now it's only been about 3 or 4 people doing runs.

In regards to the leaderboards, everything looks good to me. Honestly I kinda doubt that anyone ever will get around to running the PSP version of the game, but I suppose it's worth leaving up there for the mean time, if someone ever wants to bother.

Welcome back @ViceroyOfMonteCristo and I'm glad you're here. We got a discord server linked to the website if you want to go to that.

Welcome back, @ViceroyOfMonteCristo. :)

I hope you're not upset about me kinda taking the lead from you here. As I wrote above, I was just a bit angry why a game that is essentially pure speedrunning is so inactive here. I'm glad you're back though, we can reach more potential runners (and better times) if we work together, alongside each other towards the same goals.

Speaking about goals. There are so many active people in the Split/Second Discord and yet only a few have submitted their times to the leaderboards. As always, more runs mean more people are interested.

This especially includes runs that are NOT world records. If every track on every console (and both modes, race & detonator) would have like 3-5 runs on the boards, then people wouldn't hesitate that much to put their runs onto the board.

What I want to say: If there's only one run on the boards and your time is slower than that, why post your run? But if there are 3 runs already and your time would be placed at #2, you would certainly post your run, right? In short: I expect people to submit more runs if more runs are on there already.

Seems like we accomplished everything we planned here already, even the load time issue has been settled with the switch to IGT now. So as everything that needed to be said has been said, I'm gonna lock this thread.
