Billy Hatcher and the giant egg Sonic games (Heroes, Adventure DX, Adventure 2, Riders etc) MegaMan Network Transmission (kinda hard game if you're not that much into platformers, the music rocks though)

There's definitly other games but that's all i can think of for now.

[quote=Pac]1. Add high scores to speedrun.com. 2. Work with the owner of highscore.com to try to improve the existing site. 3. Try again to buy highscore.com (offering more money), make a completely new website in its place, while trying to salvage as much of the existing data as possible. 4. Make a completely new high scores website under a different name / domain name.[/quote]

Personnaly, i think 3rd option is rude, but worth a try. If it doesn't work, then 4th option would be the best one, imo. Mostly because i don't think having high scores on this site would be a good idea long-term. People barely manage leaderboards so far, i think it would be worse if high scores gets added. Plus, that would probably lead to more drama, there's already enough here without that stuff.

As for 2nd option, idk the guy but i think it would be problematic eventually.

Resident Evil / BioHazard (serie) Clock Tower (serie) Haunting Ground / Demento Dino Crisis 1 + 2 (even if 2 is way more action-oriented) Fatal Frame / Project Zero (serie) Alone in the Dark (serie)

There's definitly more but these are the only ones i can think of rn.

Personnaly, i sometimes still get scared when running horror games, but the more you play, the less things affects you, especially when the same things happens at the same time every run (like some enemy breaking a door after picking up a specific item for example).

For some games, though, even while knowing all this, it still feels really scary and tense in general (i'm mostly thinking of Alone in the Dark for this, the ambience in this game is something else).

Bonjour

[quote] I do have a question that I couldn't seem to find an answer to, and I hope it's OK to ask it here. To submit a speedrun, do you have to do it live, like on Twitch? And do you need to use a facecam while you do it? [/quote]

Streaming isn't required, same for facecam. As long as there's a vid (uploaded on youtube or anywhere else) that shows the game, it should be ok. Ideally, you'd want to add the timer to it, it's not 100% necessary but it's preferred (some mods are too lazy to re-time your run if there's no timer).

Streaming can be nice though, since you can just highlight anything from the stream (PBs, possible new glitches, and so on). You could do all that while recording locally, but doing it via twitch would probably save you some time in general (finding the part you want to upload, if you just record everything, editing, etc).

@ChanceCossitt This is a last resort thread, please ask the current moderator of the game and read the first post of this topic.

Positive or not, adding an option to comment on runs on this site is a stupid idea, plus, everytime someone made a topic for it, people gave tons of good reasons why it shouldn't be a thing.

As for runners having to take care of the comments on their own runs, personnaly, i think this is a REALLY bad idea; for some games you have to practice a lot on top of doing runs (and some games takes hours also). As a runner, you'd want to do runs or practice / learn stuff, not manage comments (especially when ATLEAST half of them are shitposts).

And, of course, the more games you run, the worse this would get. I'm pretty sure having this feature would enable trolls to comment on obsolete runs as well (there's always a way to look at obsolete runs so someone would do it eventually).

Now, if anything, you could suggest that leaderboard mods actually manage comments on runs, but they already have enough things to do (especially if they actually care about the leaderboard and do more than verify runs).

Honestly, i wonder why people still suggest this feature when they know how shit most comments are on every site that has this feature.

• What is a Leaderboard?

A "place" with different rankings and categories. Sometimes more. If we consider the fact that forums are also a thing (like it is here : every leaderboard has a forum), then i guess you could consider each leaderboard as a small community, where each runner is a "member" of it.

• What is on a Leaderboard?

Kinda depends if it's a good leaderboard or not to me. A "decent" leaderboard would just have rankings and categories (and everything would look nice and organized, ideally).

A "good" leaderboard would probably have more than that (guides, ressources, or atleast a link to where to find all these).

I'd kinda like to add more stuff, but at the same time i'm not sure what, for some reason it's really hard to answer these questions...

[quote=Duxez]Look out he memes... Really adding something to the discussion here boys (and girls and whatever sex you relate to)[/quote]

Tbh you should have expected some trolling, your first post litterally ends with "It's just an opinion calm down". It's almost the same as wearing a shirt that says "troll me pls EleGiggle"

Anyway, i personnaly like how the site looks in general, not really sure why you think it looks "old", it's special, sure, but definitly not "old" imo.

[quote=CriscoWild]You have to be careful about voicing that opinion though because there's a clique of people on here who get really defensive about the site. Some of them might bully you if you don't watch your step.[/quote]

Not sure why you're thinking that, sure there's some memeing and all but in general it's because of whoever makes dumb topics / posts. As for bullying, well, it's probably the case... but definitly not on the main forums.

Also seems like you're taking things too seriously in general (judging by your responses that is). Oh well, whatever.
