Adding a Series / game?
9 years ago
United States

What's the process for adding a series or game? I'd like to have leaderboards for the Alex Kidd and Mickey Mouse "Illusion" (or just Mickey Mouse in general) series.

Thanks.

Well, if there's not already a leaderboard for a game, I can add one and put you in charge of it. But if there is, then we should talk to whoever manages the leaderboard for that game and see if they're interested in moving over.

There's no leaderboard that I'm aware of for either series, aside from a thread here and there on SDA.

The Master system community is small and mostly tight-knit, and we've talked about building our own leaderboards just to have somewhere to put things. SRL Leaderboards aren't happening soon, and if by some miracle they do get going, they won't be available for small games for even longer.

After learning of this site, it seems more logical to just add them here.

Hey btrim, sorry I'm late getting back to you. I've added both of those series and put you in charge of them. If you need anything else, let me know.

A ideia of a serie: LEGO series. Those games are funny to speedrun, and it has "IL's", as Super story etc, where the timer is in-game.

Germany

Hey I'll use this Thread instead of creating a new one:

I'm the most active God of War series speedrunner and if you want, i can manage a GoW Leaderboard!

what about terraria?

The categories would probably be beat specific boss, beat all bosses, get specific item, etc.

France

Are you speedrunning all these games derek ?

New Jersey, USA

no but im just putting some ideas out there

and what about the resident evil series? lol XD

France

Games and series are added if the communities want to come and use the website.

It is pointless to add lots and lots of games if these leaderboards remain empty.

Norway

And the leaderboards would remain empty because there are no mods for the game and submitted times by people would just pile up and never be verified. That would make sr.com seem dead.

You can set it that a run doesn't need verification in the moderator panel.

How about Ratchet and Clank games? Lots of people speed run it like any other platformer as they seem to be the most fun. I'd be happy to moderate as well if that needed doing.

Quake series?

Mexico

I already sent a twitch Message Pac's way, but by experience a lot of people tend to miss twitch PMs so I'm conna 'cross-post' here as well.

Cyberdemon531 and I along with the Mega Man X6 community would like to have the leaderboards for our game here.

Joka (who currently runs the megaman leaderboards) has stated (http://puu.sh/cgt5L.png) that he is OK with having games from the X series branch off from the leaderboards and manage them ourselves, so we at X6 want to take the offer.

So should I you post in here if I want to add a game/ series?

Well I'd like to add Kirby as a series and Also Demon's Crest as a game

I'm a editor in both of the current Leaderboards: Kirby: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Av3BIN1Nc1qmdHpaRzV1emlORUpNek5YQVFqVVZpMHc#gid=0 Demon's Crest: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmA5cMFTwPp6dDNJZktxcnM4bkFnblVjbTlQMXNlUVE#gid=0
