I didn't want to post this, but I am just putting this out here because honestly, this issue is massively plaguing this game at the moment. (Note: Categories which aren't DtS)

For those not aware, recently, the runner HystericZero2/Despressiion had his runs removed. This was because his old runs had extremely fishy splits (most notoriously sub 20 minute chapter 11), and the other active mod, Nerdy, and I both refused to believe he improved so fast. Something both of us still stand by.

The reason I bring this up is because it lead into us basically having a back and forth arguement on what rules we need to implement to prove a top runner is legit. I argue we should enforce recording for runs 2:20 RTA (the main category) and under (btw we recently switched to RTA). However, Nerdy and some others do not enjoy recording and argue we should still do something, but not that.

Nerdy and I are still planning to figure this out, however, please feel free to give us suggestions for this.

Additionally, I promised I would look for easy ways to record without a capture card, so please inform me with those methods if you have them.

To contact us, your best bet is to join the Yo-kai Watch Speedrunning discord and either dm us or ping us in the Yo-kai Watch 1 channel.
(Note: At the time of this post I am currently not using discord so I don't get distracted by it, but I will be back on soon and should see it eventually).

I will delete this forum post once we have our rules adjusted. Thank you for your patience with these.
