lvl leaderboards?

I was wondering if we could make lvl leaderboards for different lvls of the game. For example whomps fortress in super mario 64 then under that we have the 6 (or and 7) stars as individual categories

I would just go with all of the stars...

Wait, 100% is all stars all stars :O

That would made the board a mess to setup and pretty sure not a lot of peoples would do individual levels.

You can still do Individual Levels runs on your side without submitting on the board though. You don't need a board for everything.

I do think it would be hard to set up, but for people like me who don't really have the time/endurance to do a full run of a game, it would be nice just to be able to do the smaller categories.

I don't believe it'd be hard to set up at all, it'd just take some time. I think all that needs to be done is mimic what the standard 64/S/G leaderboards have for level runs. People would probably be completely okay with the IL boards popping into existence a few at a time to make it easier on the mods.

I am the lead moderator in the one game, and it's as easy as heck to set up categories and rules

Alright, then it would be pretty nice to be able to do single level/star runs.

It'd be easy to set up but this game isn't exactly unpopular, tens of new PBs are set every day, and they're all 1-2 hours long except 70 stars. It would be a barrage of runs for a moderator to verify.

Moderators are already retimed and verified over 600 hours of runs. Ils would be far from a concern to them

there also would probably be an actual 100 categories. Thats not including the sub categories

Imo, we don't really need single stars that badly, but having all 7 stars in the level would be nice, adding up to 15 sm64 levels instead of 120, 42 which is still a lot, so idk what we would do with that, instead of 120 smg levels, and 8 ils instead of 120 levels for super mario sunshine. 65 levels is a lot, don't get me wrong, but a ton of it is super mario galaxy, so we could just edit that or something

we could do like they do in all the games; have the stage name then have subcategories for entire level run (all stars) and individual star runs, and in galaxy we have luigi too.

luigi might me unnecessary, it would take a while to verify all those runs. Though it's up to the moderators

I guess we'll just see what happens. This game is still only a couple days old of course so they haven't had much time to add anything like this if they wanted to.

We're not adding level leaderboards. Hardly enough people already run ILs of the individual games and "I want a number 1 next to my name" is such a pathetic reason that is just makes us not want to do it even more

I do both understand and agree with the post from the game's mod; implementing extra unpopular categories, especially since the mods are volunteers. And it may backfire in the future for a variety of reasons, especially for leaderboard chasing.

But I know I'd do my best to support IL leaderboards if they are ever added in the future; I need to work on extending my potential speedrunning practice to runs that are over an hour long, and I could always use the practice. That, and emulators are not allowed in the base games' IL categories.

After thinking about it, Odme_'s post does make a lot of sense. Hardly anyone does IL runs so I can definitely see why there wouldn't be much reason to put in the amount of time it would take to add them. I should work on my longer speedruns of these games and possibly just go back to the originals for the ILs.

If we did add Ils dwhatever would take them all anyways lol

The main issue with doing ILs is mainly what odme already said, as well as the fact that this is mostly just a collection of 3 upscaled games on a different console. Because of that, even if we only did world/dome rta, it would be redundant to load a lvl leaderboard with at least 28 different categories for 3 different games that already have their own lvl leaderboards on their original versions.
