I'll talk to Don to see what he wants, since he's indeed inactive on the site, but please just talk to the active mods about stuff like this in the future. Demanding action in a public forum post we have to stumble upon is both inefficient and rude.

I stand corrected, but yeah if more than 1 person ran it, sure :)

Split is made :)

Because noone runs it

If there's no objections, I'll probably just do the split later this week :) no harm in having the category be on the same playing field as the rest.

There's a total of 3 bop boosts that save a bunch of time in Rail Canyon and Frog Forest and there's pinball table launching in Casino Park, but that's about it yeah

Hey folks, since it often gets asked and the team recently got a new bop boost in the form of the flapper bop boost, I was thinking of making the LTS split for Team Chaotix as well. There seems to be a good interest in the LTS categories and I wouldn't want Chaotix to be the one people skip out on cause it doesn't have one. Thoughts? Should I add the split? Or nah not needed?

Yes, but the rules both here and on TSC clearly state that neither team is allowed to move early. The rules are not banning a specific glitch, they're banning any glitch that accomplishes that.

"if either team is moved before control is naturally gained the time is disqualified from the boards."

This is the exact same ruling as TSC, so I think you misinterpreted their rules

Option 3 it is, boards are up! https://www.speedrun.com/sonic_generations/individual_levels

They're up lads, get submitting! https://www.speedrun.com/sonic_colors_wii/individual_levels

Boards are up! Looking forward to the submissions, though once again I'll be very busy so sorry if it takes a while initially :)

For starters, please keep posts in english. This is an international website.

Gonna assume you want emulator to be allowed and I might consider it in the future, but for the time being just let me focus on the implementation of Individual Level leaderboards please

Not the point, keep posts in shared areas in English. Gotta be consistent in moderation, please respect that.

Hello, please speak english in the forums as the site has a wide international userbase

I'll be honest, same

Right now I'm debating between 3 setups for the boards that work with the discussed restrictions. If anyone has a preference, by all means let me know by posting here. I'm not happy with how any of these options look, but this game has too many variables so I'm just looking for the least bad one.

I figured I'd put the options in a poll so those who don't want to post can voice their opinion: https://www.strawpoll.me/20785720

Option 1: Skills / No Skills as categories, Modern/Classic listed in stage names

Upsides:

• The addendum of Modern/Classic looks better than an addendum of Skills/No Skills on every stage name.

Downsides:

• Need for addendums on the names of the challenges
• Slightly longer list as a result of needing to split challenges by Modern/Classic for some challenges
• More empty slots on the view all page

................................................................................Skills................No Skills Green Hill Modern Green Hill Classic Chemical Plant Modern Chemical Plant Classic Rest of the stages Metal Sonic Metal Sonic Hard Mode Death Egg Robot Death Egg Robot Hard Mode Rest of the bosses Green Hill Challenge 1 Modern Green Hill Challenge 2 Modern Green Hill Challenge 2 Classic Green Hill Challenge 3 Classic Rest of the challenges with timers

Option 2: Modern/Classic as categories, Skills/No Skills in stage names

Upsides:

• No addendums on the challenges
• Slightly shorter list. There's no need to split challenges as they only allow the skill specific to the challenge
• Less empty slots on the view all page

Downsides:

• The addendum of Skills/No Skills looks slightly worse

................................................................................Modern................Classic Green Hill (Skills) Green Hill (No Skills) Chemical Plant (Skills) Chemical Plant (No Skills) Rest of the stages Metal Sonic Metal Sonic (Hard) Death Egg Robot Death Egg Robot (Hard) Rest of the bosses Green Hill Challenge 1 Green Hill Challenge 2 Green Hill Challenge 3 Rest of the challenges with timers

Option 3: Modern/Classic as categories, Skills/No Skills as subcategories for the ILs

Upsides:

• Shortest list possible with the site's restrictions

Downsides:

• The 'view all' page would only show the time of the 1st subcategory (most likely Skills as that's fastest), the No Skills times will only be viewable if you go the the page of the specific IL.
• Hard Mode bosses still need to be split using the name, as I can only pick 1 subcategory to apply to all the ILs.
