Category Extensions Submission Thread 3.0
2 years ago
Mexico

Hi, welcome to the Breath of the Wild Category Extensions Leaderboard! Here we will house all the interesting, yet not so interesting to be on the main board, categories you can think of.

When requesting a category, please provide the following:

  • Name, explanation and rules of the category.
  • The SRC username of each runners (eg. @Sigmaphied), along with the respective video of the run.

Each category must follow these guidelines:

  • The category should involve interesting and unique routing, or have a significant goal within the game.
  • The category should not be similar to existing categories.
  • The category goals should not be reliant on heavy luck based requirements or goals.
  • There must be at least 5 runs by five different runners with video proof each, for longer categories (6+ hours on average) only 3 runs are required.
  • Exceptions to these rules are categories which have a distinct growth in popularity compared to others (eg. butter dog).

After one of our mods reviews your category, along with the runs, your category will be added if accepted.

//Note: Categories that were added before the new guidelines were posted are not gonna be removed from the board. If you submitted before this, you must resubmit under these new rules.//

//Note2: This thread is only for request submissions with the below criteria, this is not an "idea" thread to discuss what categories other runners should run. Any non-request submission will be deleted.

If you want to talk about ideas, see this thread: https://www.speedrun.com/botw/thread/odu09

or use the proper channel in the Discord server.//
