North Carolina, USAHello everyone today the moderation team of STFA made some changes to the rules and leaderboards. All these changes will take effect starting today (2/7/21).
To start off we have fixed the Gamepass% to now be different subcategories instead of one weird one and all runs Gamepass% runs have been edited to fit their appropriate sub-category.
We added No Major Glitches to 100% as well as All Glitches to 100% this allows for out of bound glitches and clipping glitches to be useful for once outside of any% (Which is basically down to clipping through doors). With this changed, we changed the 100% rules so make sure you check them out before submitting a run to make sure you submit it properly. Teleporters through gamepass doors are still banned in All glitches. All runs submitted to date have been categorized as 100% NMG so have fun with All Glitches.
On the topic of rules, the overall game rules have had an addition that requires all new runs to have the leaderboard clearly visible with the player's name and Shrek points in focus. We also now require all new runs to have the number of Shrek points they had at the start and end of the run be included when submitting a new run. These changes have been made to help reduce possible cheating avenues as well as to give a bit more competition to runners to not only have the fastest time but the highest points as well.
If you have any questions about these changes or any questions in general please leave a comment on this thread or message a one of the mods.
Yes that would be considered a major glitch and in the current state we have the leaderboards set up it technically wouldn't be allowed in the 100% run but I will talk it over with loff about adding a NMG section to 100% since there are some other glitches that have been found as well.
There are some tutorials on youtube that talk about how to lag clip. I think it has something to do with having roblox lag by clicking out of the game or something.
Hello all, as you may know, STFA is still a game in active development and is constantly improved and changed through updates. There have been many updates over the past year and that have led to some music changes and general game improvements. To start off with the biggest thing for all of us is that loading zones have been changed and loading times are faster. This change makes the run much faster for 100% and I will be talking with the mod team and determine if we want to keep the v3 leaderboard as the active board or make a new v3.1 board to accommodate the new loading time speeds. Chris the creator of STFA has commented on the new update of the game, it was originally planned to be released on October 1st, however, in his own words "update pushed back. mouth dreams dropped and made me have a spiritual reawakening and completely rewrite the plot." The new update will follow snoop instead of continuing the book of shrek. We do not have any more information on the update but this seems to be a huge content update for the game. Thank you all for reading and I hope to see some new runs submitted in the near future and may shrek be with you!
You need to use shift lock to clip yourself on the other side of the wall. Its kind of hard tbh.
Thank you for your concern about this run. With the current rule set that we have in place for STFA, the run would be removed, however, when the run was accepted the rule had not been put into place and was grandfathered in through the old ruleset. This run does end up confusing some people since the run was accepted on the same day the rule was put into place. This is due to the fact that the run inspired us to put the rule in place. During the process of accepting there was some talk within the community about this and run and if it should have been approved. In the end, we decided that the run would be approved as the rule was not put in place at the time of the run or when it was submitted as well as the fact that the part that was covered up was an unskippable cut scene and as a result gave us a way to time that portion to make sure it matched up with a regular unobstructed run. I hope this answers any questions you have and feel free to reach out to me if you have any more questions.
Hi, just looking for an update on the ROBLOX Shrek The Force Awakens post I made on page 84. I know you ShikenNuggets tried to contact badano but I have not heard anything else on it so I was just wondering how it has gone.
Just so everyone is aware. When I am reviewing runs I always check the provided timer or the one I am using to verify the exact time. I count time to be when the dialog box is clicked and expanded (see Imgur link for an example). Most runs have their time edited to reflect this. If you feel like your run does not reflect this accurately please resubmit it with a time that reflects this.

I did some investigating. Not killing Cena and just sitting around is slower. You do get teleported after a set amount of time, however, it still seems to be faster to just fight. Currently, there is a mechanic that is being worked on that will teleport you when you kill Cena but I will be doing more testing.
I would like to request moderation for Shrek the Force Awakens https://www.speedrun.com/httpswww.roblox.comgames45342257shrek-the-force-awakens currently the game is under attack by trolls and the only moderator has not been able to be contacted for over a month. I am currently a verifier and have tried contacting the super mod for over a month. He was last online 16 days ago but no one has been able to contact him for a little over a month. As stated the forums are being attacked by trolls and since there are no moderators they are stuck there. There is currently some work that needs to be done to the game that the super mod has been neglecting. Thank you in advance.
Words from out pope Chris. The Cena is timed not kill based. You can advance without killing Cena. In his words "Not killing Cena is pacifist route, for even though he demanded blood you showed honor and did not strike down a defeated opponent. And his respect for that gesture grants you access to the spiritual world."
He needs to be inactive for a month for me to do so. I have hope that he will come back but at this point, I have no idea
Hello, all it is I s0r3. I want to give all of you an update on the current state of STFA and how things are progressing behind the scenes. Currently, I have no contact with Badano and have not heard from him since March 17th. There are lots of things that need to be done so that we can get this game up and running, however, I am unable to do these things. Badano currently is the only person who is able to do this and until he comes back (or I request a mod change) I have talked to the ROBLOX series admin and they are unable to do anything right now. If you have any questions about the rules or about a category in general then DM me on discord and ill gladly help. I am sorry if this inconveniences any of you and thank you all for running. May our lord be with you!
Ok, so I have yet to hear back from Badano about this topic or other topics relating STFA. The last time I talked to him was on March 17th and he hasn't been online in 11 days. Since I am the only "Moderator" active at this time I will make the executive call and say that AS OF NOW the rules will stay as they are. There would need to be lots of time figuring out when the timer should be paused and resumed as well as actually making the changes to the rules which I don't have perms to do. Once Badano comes back and we actually get this game organized I will bring this up, but we still have lots of work that I cant do and is being neglected by Badano.
Not a bad idea but this would require lots of work on the runner's end and the verifies end. If there is a good way to do this without having to pause and resume the timer every few minutes then it would be more useful. It really leaves room for runners to forget to start the timer again and kill the run. It also leaves for errors when timing and we wouldn't have to figure out when timers should pause and what not. I will bring it up with badano but I don't know what he will think.
