How would i go about submitting a run for sherwood forest?

this is my run for original RCT2

Chicago, IL, USASphinctus6 years ago

Current as is, all three currently ran rollercoaster tycoon games (Roller coaster tycoon, Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, and Rollercoaster Tycoon Classic) are under the same umbrella of Rollercoaster Tycoon 1 when speedruns are noted on this website. I agree with the games being under the same umbrella of Rollercoaster tycoon (as is rollercoaster tycoon 1 and 3 currently) However i do not agree with RCT 2 and Classic being under RCT 1.

RCT 1 and 2 are different games clearly, and it doesnt make sense to have them both be under RCT 1.

RCT classic is a re release of both games put together. rct classic has features that arent available in either of the other games (rides designer which allows you to import custom rides for quicker runs and the ability to speed up time) and even some changed features such as some roller coasters being altered from rct1 expansions. It also has separate runs that cant be completed in the other games, like all scenarios ect. Scenarios are also grouped differently and unlocked differently in RCT Classic.

I am writing this post as i have been brick walled pretty much by the RCT community in regards to this. I currently run all 3 games however i would like to bring a bit more legitimacy to the game. Also, look at how many other games have a seperate leaderboard for remasters, why does RCT Classic (which has many new features) get the same treatment? https://imgur.com/a/pefO1

Wouldnt it make sense to have to get to the finish screen of the mission since you can now speedup time?

I feel the fact that runs using the original ruleset (Which was in place because of how long you had to wait to actually complete the mission) shouldnt be allowed in the classic category.

I mean why would you accept my runs in said category, if you were just going to accept the original ruleset (In which i am clearly running out the clock to get to the finish scenario screen)?
