Hi TDSS Community! We hope this message finds you well, we are reaching out to inform you of a significant update that will impact a major speedrunning category to TDS speedrunning.

Change to Normal Mode:

As you may aware, TDS has reworked "Normal Mode" and renamed it "Easy Mode," introducing a completely new wave structure. Consequently, we're archiving "Normal Mode" runs on the leaderboard and the category itself to maintain fairness and alignment with TDS' latest version. We understand the effort behind each record but believe this step is necessary for our competitive community.

What This Means for You:

If you have a "Normal Mode" run, it will be archived to honor achievements under the game's and TDSS' community old testament to the skill and dedication of our community's members during that period, but won't be active for competition. With the new "Easy Mode," we're starting a new chapter in TDS speedrunning, introducing new challenges and opportunities.

Looking Ahead:

We are committed to supporting our community during this transition to "Easy Mode" and are excited to see the new strategies and records that will emerge on the leaderboard from this update. We encourage sharing your thoughts and achievements as we embrace this new chapter in TDS speedrunning.

Thank you for your understanding, support, and passion for TDS speedrunning. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to our staff team, and have fun speedrunning! <3
