Well, not ¤exact¤ copies, MarioManTAW. The VC version runs at a different framerate. So at a top level it's useless for speedrunning.

I really don't think it's appropriate, since ultimately it'll come down to who gets the best seed.

And when some rando comes in with a fixed seed, how do you police whether he knew the seed in advance or not?

Also what happens when a new version comes out?

These days the same game on different systems ends up being the same game, just with slight differences.

20 years ago, the same game on different systems was often a different game entirely. Contrast Airwolf (Famicom) with Airwolf (NES). Famicom Airwolf can't even have a speedrun(!).

I don't think you can make this decision except case by case.

Because he's a known liar. He's unstable and untrustworthy.

You don't "give a person a second chance" by letting him be the center of attention and be trusted with an event like this.

If it wasn't edited in after my comment.

But since you're clearly endorsing this liar, well...

Weird how they're not mentioning that known fraud Chibi is a part of this.

I have no idea if the emulators are valid.

You get an Atari VCS/Atari 2600, and a cart. You might need a VCR to convert the RF out from the Atari, to composite for streaming and recording.

Though there are AV-modded Ataris out there.

Have you ¤Seen¤ how many different settings there are? You can't compare say, anarchy, pandemonium, and chaos runs.

I'm not really sure the point of that, given how many categories there would have to be, and how much it all depends on seed RNG.

People are racing it for giggles.

If there were good arguments for the mod team that reject message ruined their credibility.

Yeah thanks lighnator. When I Added a variable and everything vanished I did panic a little. Fortunately I know enough about development to assume that's what was going on, so I just removed the variable again. :)

Thanks for adding a way to work around this.

How do you add a variable without making every current run disappear?

Yeah you can't allow changing the video link.

Glad of the series moderation vs game moderation change.

Right on leaderboard he still shows as UK.

Only one way. You can hide the region and show only the country, but you can't hide the country and show only the region.

So you can't be from Scotland, Catalan, or Quebec on the boards, to name some examples.

It would be nice if runners had a choice of whether to be represented by a regional flag or not. I know there are some Quebec runners who would like that, for example.

I reread your post. You're a little off on the categories.

We already had swordless and Extreme Rules up.

Low% gets the wooden sword since you can't win without it. Swordless and ER have to get the wand.

Sure.

Added.
