Oxknifer, considering the site doesn't host videos directly but they're usually embedded players from YT or Twitch (plus other sources) that's incredibly unlikely. As in entirely impractical and infeasible.

As a slightly unrelated topic, I'm very aware there's the usual GDQ pressure the site has for a week or so after the marathon, but overload issues have been happening for quite a bit now. Perhaps this is simply extended pressure from the GDQ's, but is there a possibility that there's an underlying issue here?

Another thing to do would be to make a forum post, but other contacts are also hugely recommended.

If/when Scypher gets super he'll be able to add you. I'd guess that the site mods would prefer Scypher to confirm what you said, too.

And that's exactly what he did. I get that it may be a joke but when it comes to the leaderboards joking around usually doesn't come off as such.

I like that (though IDK why people forbid certain consoles the game was released for, that seems silly. Like banning VC versions, they're official releases...)

Sylux, it's 3 weeks for inactivity.

SLCRG, have you tried contacting them via the game's forums? They last logged on on the 9th this month, so they haven't been inactive three weeks yet either. (I would have said to ask via their contacts, but the only one they have is a Twitch which they haven't streamed on in two years)

Truth be told, I would have expected the same thing, @ShikenNuggets

Ask the active mod.

That makes sense.

NVIDIA Shield and/or NVIDIA Shield TV (not sure if these need to be separate or can be combined together).

NVIDIA Shield TV for Twilight Princess. Also not sure why the CHN region is listed as CHN / iQue (if someone can explain this to me?)

Metroid: Other M is an example of what NOT to do with an ingame timer. Twilight Princess has a decent IGT, the only issue is it's (h)h:mm (no seconds on the file select screen) and it doesn't show after the final boss. I know the Primes use IGT for their runs, some of which have higher accuracy than others.

@PresJPolk Bokoblins is generally very involved in ZSR ( http://zelda.speedruns.com ), being one of the site admins for that site. Far from a nobody. I'm surprised you hadn't heard of them before.

Edit to fix the link as ZSR was semi-forcibly moved off its old domain.

Almost assuredly WAI, since IIRC obscure consoles are ones with less than a specific amount/percentage of use.

I did forward this to Glacials via the Splits I/O discord, but I won't speak for him here.

What Pheenoh said. To further elaborate (credit to the community on this), the invisible wall is because you haven't beaten Gor Coron in sumo wrestling. However, since we've done EMS, the sumo event is broken because the area is in the post-MS state (hence why Dangoro is present, as well as why the cutscene entering the area isn't present; the dialogue you advance before exiting/reentering the area is the CS dialogue broken up since it's not playing in a CS like it's supposed to).

After advancing the broken dialogue, reloading the area (which you can do via exit/reenter or voiding out) will move the gorons apart, but the wall is still present since the wall is tied to beating the sumo event (which can no longer be done). However, that wall is only coded to block you with items available to that point; the spinner, obtained far later, isn't stopped by it and can be used to bypass the wall and enter Mines.

Depending on the category you're doing will determine how you handle entering Mines; 100% does it right after Arbiter's Grounds (in fact, after obtaining the fishing rod upgrade explicitly), while All Dungeons (AD) does it later (IIRC after CitS but I may and probably am mistaken, since I don't follow AD as much as I do 100%). But both enter the dungeon via the Spinner.

As a final note, if you don't have the option of doing the sumo event AND you haven't obtained the Master Sword yet, that is quite interesting. While the file in this case wouldn't technically be softlocked, you're likely better off restarting that file. There are ways to glitch yourself forward in the game (either get the MS early as human or enter Lanayru Twilight early at the Twilight Barrier; the former requires a rupee slide assuming you didn't do EMS jump during Faron Twilight, the latter eventually locks out 100% due to forcing Barne's Bomb Bag to be rendered unobtainable), but neither is easy and both require a fair bit of tricky glitching to proceed.

The ambiguity is not in what "beat the game" means, it's that that wording implies other categories do not do it. And that is false, which is why "Beat the game" is terrible as an alternative to Any%

tråd: The Site

^, hugely. If the category is implying some sort of percentage, as Any%, Low%, or even an actual digit percentage (0%, 100%, etc.), then having a % is fine. If the word isn't implying some sort of percentage or the number isn't some sort of percentage, then you shouldn't have a % after it. Examples being 96 Star (has a number, but not a percentage), All Levels (not even close), etc.

Beat the Game is a terrible name for a category, as most categories will do it regardless. 100% also "beats the game". Low% also "beats the game", an all levels/all dungeons/all tracks/etc. run also "beats the game"

What splits Any% apart from those runs is not "beating the game", it's doing it as fast as possible with whatever completion amount you want to do. 100% requires you to do everything/majority of things in the game or pick up/collect all of what can be (not discounting other definitions, but these are the two general ones most games use), Low% requires you to beat the game while picking up/collecting/doing as little as possible, often using slow glitches to skip items otherwise obtained. All "X" categories are often used when it's possible to beat the game without doing all of what X is, and is usually a shorter category than a 100% run (though at times this may be synonymous with 100%). None of these requirements are in Any%, and thus, since you really just want to beat the game as fast as possible, you can use any percentage of items or whatever you track for other categories.

As a final note, an All Levels/All Dungeons/All Tracks/etc. category should not have a % after it.

Regarding the last two things you said, the former most mods can just fix on their own if need be, and the latter you can do (albeit not in green text) with a note in the submission text. That said, agreed with the first three.
