Discussion about the new rules for some of the DLC categories have been happening by the moderation team. For some of the rules we would like to ask the community which they would prefer.

The DLC added the ability to skip the opening cutscenes that are currently still unskippable if you do not own the DLC. To address this free time save please vote below for the 2 options by liking the post with the option. (If you like multiple options it will be assumed you are fine with either equally). (this might be a two part poll depending on the winner)

Filter DLC vs non-DLC runs

Edit times to make them comparable based on the amount of time skipping beginning cutscenes saves

Do not allow food for Level 1 or Level 99

Allow food for Level 1 only

Allow food for Level 99 only

Allow food for Level 1 and Level 99

For the DLC categories: Do you want food to be allowed? Please vote below for the 4 options by liking the post with the option. (If you like multiple options it will be assumed you are fine with either equally)

This will be an extremely tight race, no one knows who will win the election. Closed and election portion will be skipped.

That is not even the same issue we were talking about with these submissions. Level 1 was the video he submitted for 4 runs that were not level 1. That is the same as you submitting a minecraft run for a category on this board.

You keep submitting the wrong video with your run. If you submit a time your video actually has to match up with it. You used the same video which was incorrect for various different runs. This comment was given with every rejected run as well.

With ReMind DLC coming to KH3, we are looking to add a 3rd mod to KH3 team again. The process and requirements are a combination of this thread: https://www.speedrun.com/kh/thread/cs20y/1#4asu4 with changes based on feedback from this thread: https://www.speedrun.com/kh/thread/8r4ae

The base requirements of a moderator will be as follows:

1. People coming forward are required to have run at least two non-arbitrary categories in the game and rank in the top 33% of the most popular category.
2. People coming forward need the backing of at least 2 other runners in the game (Can have ran any category and rank anywhere)

Moderators will be required to:

• Actively log into Speedrun.com at the bare minimum of once a week unless a reason is given for your in-activeness.
• Actively engage in any problems the game may have as well as feedback any community concerns or worries.
• Review runs in a timely manner.

If you meet these requirements and wish to become moderator for KH3 please post a short summary of why you feel you would be good for the mod position. If you wish to support someone's application to be a KH3 moderator please like their post.

The application and nomination phase will last until January 14th 23:59 GMT, followed by the moderation elections lasting one week.

This leaderboard, nor speedrun.com for that matter has anything to do with any Super Mario Maker league. Any feedback regarding tournaments or leagues should be taken with the people that runs them.

Direct copy from rules:

Timing:

• Timing starts when you press "Story Mode".
• Timing ends when the message "You completed all jobs as Mario!" appears.

Really don't think ILs should have random sub categories outside of games that have in game settings like different characters, different difficulties, etc. Just my thoughts would be more open to full game categories.

Several people brought up points which make this a bit more complicated than just switching the timing. All runs currently submitted would be invalid until retimed (It was said they can be kept as is, but that just isn't true). Second is that most runners currently submitting ILs do not have the means to actually time their runs (a lot of phone submissions and built in 30 second recordings). With that being said it is important for the feedback of those currently submitting ILs (not discrediting outside sources, but as with most things people usually don't post to say they like something, and it affects them the most as they are the ones currently participating in IL submissions).

If you choose to not read any of the post tl;dr timing will use IGT from battle report after beating xehanort after getting plat trophy

People were beginning to route Platinum Trophy so we needed to decide the timing method to be used.

RTA Pros: -Exact timing without having to beat the game a 2nd time -Can soft reset mailbox

IGT Pros: -Fair for HDD users -Consistent with other categories

It was determined that it really shouldn't be an issue getting enough postcards to get the Orichalcum+.

So IGT will be used.

This way runners on an HDD can have a chance if they want to run this category and it will remain consistent with the other timing methods.

So if you are doing this run please do not close the game to reset postcard counts as it will reset IGT and we will have to use RTA for your time instead.

KH3 activity has been extremely low lately and I want to see times get pushed down so I am opening a bunch of KH3 bounties

I will add Plat one once IGT vs RTA is solidified

This looks like a good place to find some ingredients

With IGT the Magic Boost in KoC takes about 25 IGT seconds to get just an FYI might be worth to get it immediately after beating to have the 1 extra magic for the entire run, probably would make up 25 seconds. Also for potential chariot skip has anyone tried getting Donald Flare from enemies in area then going to the OOB edge? The way Donald Flare works is you go to him, since your partners can go through that invisible wall a bit but you can't that may be one way to test if you can get to the other side of it.

I have a gummi world save before monsters so I'll try it and edit this post, important thing is if you are just able to get at least a 34 to skip the 6 seconds of him coming back out.

With the gummi comparison its going to be a lot closer than 20 seconds due to the time lost on the boss fights in the comparison video. Monstropolis gummi is a 32 second fight with the proper gun setup (41 in video), Keyblade graveyard boss is about 55 seconds (62 in video). Timings I gave are for 4 blue guns and 3 red guns (yes color matters). I dont have timings for all 4 of each.
