add paypal and other services as an option to pay. also there should be a option to buy a single month/year without a subscribtion.
As an example in germany creditcards are often not used (only around a third of people have one), we first have a girocard which skips the process of making debt and just gives direct access to your bank account and it doesnt allow for online stuff and has to be directly physically used. this is often supplemented with online banking and alternatives like paypal.
how is a bad idea? a monthly subscribtion is much money. you could rent a server and domain for that. making a small board with half a dozen active runners addfree for a small amount of boosts isnt a big problem. and making a bigger board with more boosts addfree is also possible.
this should either be something you pay once or if you boost a board it should remove ads completly on that board (maybe depending on the size of the game)
Honestly depends on how you look on the game, yes resetting is a strategic descission in speedgames where you need luck etc. But YuGiOh is build around to basically not depend on to much luck. Banning Resetts gives incentives to build a consistent deck which is a great part of actual yugioh. Its basically the descission to value short term evaluation of a hand or good deckbuilding, deck expertise and playing in a well thought out order its also the descission how to work with a (in modern yugioh terms) brick. So short term descission making vs routing and deck expertise. In the end you still have the option to just give up after some rounds.
Also generally building a run around resetts makes it long term way more frustrating if those resetts arent for actual RNG manipulation but just a brute force reroll.
EDIT: Also from a moderation perspective resettheavy runs need more control and proof, because they are prone to splicing.
EDIT2: I dont know how i forgot this back then, but fair timing Emulator vs Hardware is extremely hard to do if there are resetts, because emulators are faster and adding a penalty will either give an advantage to hardware or dont do enough)
No event cards, no downloadable banlists. 1 banned card allowed is fine. Its not like i already have verified runs which use the one banned card feature.
the three god cards and thundergod were event cards to my knowledge. Also they dont really matter in the context of deckbuilding for the challenges. But banning them for clarity is the best.
For Timing the starting point of choosing Yes is suboptimal. You cant really perfectly time it easly. the visual indicator for choosing yes is the red-yellow outline on the Yes botton because besides me being unsure if it is actually accurate its also a pain to pinpoint the first time it happens.
Also (this only matters for all seals) banning resetting mid duel leads to more interesting deckbuilding because consistency is a way bigger factor.
So my supposed ruleset: Beat all Stone Seal Challenges
- You beat a Challenge when "Success" is shown at the end of it
- You can beat the challenges in any oder you like
- All cards are allowed which are optainable on a offline game
- Godcards,Thunder King Rai-Oh and cards only aviable via cheating are banned
- You are allowed to use the "Up to one forbidden card" banlist
- The run must be done in a single segment with no resetts
- MelonDS and Desmume 0.9.11 are the only allowed emulators.
Timing: The Timing starts with the first frame before the unselected part of the menu moved right when selecting "Yes" on the first challenge. The Timing ends with the last frame before the "Duel Result" blend in after getting "Success" on the last stone seal challenge.
Generally Game Requests can be handled in the shared Discord of our community. https://discord.gg/R6cqEYtsTW
But people are free to request games here. The community will then decide to either add a full game or as a board on https://www.speedrun.com/minor_paradox_gsgs
@VyPr this is the most relevant tread of all. (also it seems like they fixed flags)
To eleborate: A updated user settings page without flair is a sham. its a feature not needing any work and just ignoring it doesnt remove the need. Flair is a standard feature in any forum. It helps to define yourself that others have a minimum to know about with who they discuss. also it allows everyone to set their stuff to their preference. at last we basically already had the implementation with the original setup of pronouns. Just add it back and name it "flair".
still the most relevant thing (besides fixing flags and fixing subcategories)
there are communities which have done sodoku because of the discussion.
still relevant even one month later. (also fix subcategorys and region flags!)
runners (the community) should decide what categories etc should be there and do that through activity on those boards or vote etc. moderators have to form those things into doable descissions without making the board uncompetative.
honestly i am personally not active on the site in general, quite frustrated with it. my maoin board is broken. its promised that it will be fixed but it takes way to long for such a small change.
EDIT: and the bavaria flag is still broken
can somebody please readd this to the site? misc to make dropdown was a perfectly valid option all the time.
Custom flair = 50 letter box for anything where pronouns are now. people said this multiple times. and flair is if you are in a forum pretty widespread. should be understandable like "signature" "profile picture" etc.
imagin being content with a info in your profile page. flair is essential for any good forum.
this is going on foe over a month and we still dont have this simple change. its not like it is just as big of a moderation issue as the bio. and generally people will see it if used in the forum so it will be detected much faster.
just gib custom flair already.
