ValhallaThe Farmington community is holding their next event, having a $50 dollar grand prize for the winner. This is much different than any other Farmington event that has happened before, and we would like for you to check it out. More info in the Farmington discord server linked below (in the announcements channel) https://discord.gg/vh2Vexy4uR
This game actually has a lot of decent modes in it, don’t just have the 2 through 4 cubes. That makes it look like it is just a Rubik’s cube simulator, and it makes the board look. Just please add the other modes as well, thanks
If that were to be a category, then all sports tour should be on the main boards, I think it has a legitimate reason to.
I don’t think any new categories need to be added, but to debunk some of those categories:
100 Fish is really the meme category for Wii Play, I don’t think the mods are gonna wanna add another (or they might idk).
Charge jumpless seems useless and just makes charge more annoying than anything.
Medal marathon is the only thing you can do with individual medal categories, as something like a bronze medal run wouldn’t leave room for much optimization.
This is just my opinion at the end of the day, so do what you want with that information.
@VeganSpeedRunner I don’t think an auto clicker category is necessary, so it won’t be added. And since (at least) some research has been done on autoclickers, it doesn’t seem that the run was auto clicked so I think it is real. If any evidence comes out supporting the auto clicking theory I may reconsider my decision.
Prolly should say something instead of nothing.
As someone who farmed back in the day and is pretty active with the community, it really depends on the person who is doing it and what type they are doing.
For example, fioresa is someone who farms wrs, however he always retimes his runs when submitting, runs categories with at least a little competition, and always has consideration to the mods and is more than willing to wait when more than a few runs get submitted.
Now of course there are the people who spam submit a thousand runs with no time stamps and having them all put at 0.001 and whines when it hasn’t been verified in 3 weeks, and I’m confident those are the people who people see when farming and give the community a bad wrap, which is understandable.
And for a lot of people, they substitute quality for quantity and people generally don’t like that, as it shows that you aren’t good at any game so you runs a bunch to compensate. But to be fair, it’s the runner’s decision when it comes to that, and as long as they aren’t stupid and an asshole about it, it really shouldn’t bother people.
The bottom line is it depends on the person who is doing it and how it is done. I say it is fine for the site overall (minus mod farming because duh) if done correctly and not interfering with any one game or community. And while I do see the arguments other people make and actually do agree with some, I don’t see an unhealthy behavior being performed at all.
At the end of the day if it doesn’t hurt anything run what you want.
I added subcategories for the type of hood ending, either car or door. The other categories from granny 1 aren’t really good runs that are interesting. Just because it can be a category doesn’t mean it should. The 2 different subcategories I just added are fine.
This is buggin me please say you have that requested it be put as the category extensions for the main game.
Sorry for the late response, been busy with irl stuff.
No I don’t think any other categories are necessary. This game is just granny 1 at the end of the day, with only textures swapped. If you want to run other categories for this, just run them on the granny boards.
I’m archiving this thread as I don’t think any categories should be added in the future.
@doubleublue this should help a little (made by poopsey back in the day) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XDl_M9bUriZqoZ5MTVKwb-vRNc3Ppf0xAolKtOCzl_E/edit?usp=sharing
Should mention that majority of the improvements were held by poopsey, who is infamous for deleting their runs, so no real archives of half of the records have been kept. This is the reason why a wr history isn’t possible for majority of the categories. My suggestion would be not do us states, rather do something else that is more doable.
@helikopter8272 The Sasuke series includes fangames aswell as normal games, and all additions are decided by the mod team and are community decisions. That is why the series has moderators. Also I am aware some series I mod don’t need moderation, but I was added there and there are other moderators for them so I’m not just gonna leave because of that.
As someone who mods a lot of series, I feel I should speak on this. In general, 98% of series do not require moderation of any sort and really should just be a collection of games to easily access them all. There has been multiple cases of series moderators adding a bunch of games for mod roles and such, which is why they stopped being added in the first place as said already in this forum. The only type series that need moderation would be ones that would benefit from it. For example, I moderate the Google series which is a fairly popular series on the site. Google is a very tight nit community with specific people for each new game that get added to them. If there were no series mods, anyone would be able to submit the game to the series, which would cause games we don’t want in the series to be in it, and could cause a lot of problems within the community if the mod doesn’t want be in the discord or adds a bunch of terrible categories to the game or it’s a game on the minor google games board that we don’t want to have boards. Series moderators prevent stuff like that for series like that. Another case would be like Minecraft Custom Content, where we get a bunch of requests and we rather handle it ourselves as we have our own rules added onto the series to prevent certain game additions. @RaggedDan’s idea is also fairly flawed. The system would still be abused as there are loads of people who would just add any tag they want to the game cause they think it’s funny, and games could look like smiling-X which has a billion tags. Bottom line, series moderation is only really necessary for series that would actually benefit from it, and aren’t really needed for anything else. So yeah, didn’t add much to the convo lel.
The big difference between glow hockey 1 and 2 is the championship mode, which isn’t in glow hockey 2, so I would rather focus on the championship category here. You can run the lose on the Glow Hockey 2 boards.
I personally think we are fine on moderators, but I will keep you guys in mind if we do.
Hello!
I got access to the first glow hockey game and now it is on the site.
Here is the link: https://www.speedrun.com/glow_hockey
Can’t decide on a favorite so I will throw a couple out there cause I’m bored: Blood: Fresh Supply Doom 3 Doom: Resurrection (iOS only doom rail shooter and it was great, plan on running it one day) Quake 4 (just got it 4 days ago but I really like it) Half-life Half-life: Opposing Force Seum: Speedrunners of hell Wii Sports Resort So yeah : p
Recent Minecraft Custom Content request Safe to say, an interesting request. https://twitter.com/orrinreni/status/1543503693328285698?s=21&t=CGhfsxnIwNto3HrRmOJLgg
