Idk if im the weird one here but shouldn't the run start once she finishes talking for the first task? I've watched multiple runs and I see alot of inconsistencies when it comes to when they start "Loaded in". I hear galacta talk sometimes well before someone loads in and some where she talks almost immediately before someone loads in. For all I know, that could be accounted for but since there are records of different versions I feel it should start on the completion beep. Anyone else?
You bring up a great point! It looks like people who have a slower load-in have a slight advantage against people with really fast loads. I checked it out and retimed the top 7 runs from when they load-in to when the fish target appears:
1- Mod edit: retimed to 0:06.817 (start: 454, end: 863, FPS: 60)
2- Mod edit: retimed to 0:06.350 (start: 743, end: 1124, FPS: 60)
3- Mod edit: retimed to 0:07.300 (start: 10, end: 229, FPS: 30)
4- Mod edit: retimed to 0:07.500 (start: 25, end: 250, FPS: 30)
5- Mod edit: retimed to 0:07.783 (start: 567, end: 1034, FPS: 60)
6- Mod edit: retimed to 0:07.767 (start: 502, end: 968, FPS: 60)
7- Mod edit: retimed to 0:07.783 (start: 120, end: 587, FPS: 60)
Pretty much every run's idle start before the first task is given is different, with the top runs having a slower load-in. I think I'll change the official start to when the fish target appears, it'll normalize the times and show a better representation of the actual runs. Will retime the runs during the week, thanks for bringing it up @jaepil1994 :)
Ah so it was a slight oversight! Thanks! I was planning on sending in a run but I kept being around 3 seconds short of the WR and was trying to see if it was completely me or if there was something else slightly in play. Of course i dont mind being short of WR but it seemed so far compared to what they were doing lol
Hey! So it turns out that the initial load-ins for all of the Tutorial categories can have a significant effect on a run's final time (slower loads = advantage, faster loads = disadvantage). So to normalize it, here are the new start locations for all 3 tutorial categories:
