1 word: why?

Hi guys.

I've considered running this game for a while now, and my knowledge of the speedrun (and even the game) is incredibly limited, so apologies in advance for that.

I can play GCN games on PAL/NTSC/NTSC-J, and I was wondering which version is the best for me to run? I'll happily pay an extra bit to be running on the best version.

Thanks in advance, if I have any more questions I'll post them in this thread.

Really looking forward to this if it's a thing. Looking forward to hearing more info, too

I think that to some it can be a good idea. It'd be cool to see another level of customisation.

Hey - I was wondering if anyone had considered giving users the option to customise their own 1st-3rd place icons, similarly to what is possible in games. I feel as though looking down a person's srcom page could look better if all of their icons were the same. Obviously, this wouldn't affect that game's leaderboard, but would add more customisation for individual users.

Thanks, Len.

Game Name: Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex. System: Xbox, played on Xbox 360 download version. Category: Any% Gameplay Estimate: 1:07:00 Ending/Bonus Estimate: None Possible Donation Incentives: Smokey and the Bandicoot one-cycle done during any% (getting all the boxes in Level 13, one of the hardest strategies in 106%) Sample run video: Description: As a fans favourite, Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex offers a nostalgic feeling for many viewers. This run is submitted as a race between myself and Bensagram; we've both put lots of time into this speedgame to stretch it as far as we possibly can. The game itself entails a diverse array of levels, ranging from atlasphere to underwater, adding to the excitement of the run. With many cycles to be made, the game is fast paced and is very linear; it can be appreciated by those who've never watched or played Crash Bandicoot before. Availability: Not between 9am-4:30pm, any other time is fine

yeah what Matt said. Congrats on your first run, and if you want to introduce yourself more there are lots of streamers you can follow.

I dunno. I'm not exactly a known member of your community so I don't expect for you to take my opinion seriously, but I kinda like having numbers to almost quantify categories. I think numbers allows there to be clear distinction. Of course, this is from someone who doesn't run sunshine but it's just my opinion.

@zoton2 might be able to help you out. I'll let him know in our discord.

Hi. I recently submitted a game to srcom called 'Multiple Crash Bandicoot Games', and my run was rejected due to the fact that I haven't ran that category.

I can completely understand your reasons behind this, and now there is a valid documented run for me to submit. However, it's by somebody else.

Said person isn't keen on moderating the leaderboards, and I'm an experienced member of the Crash community who'll be able to moderate these leaderboards competently. What should also be said is that I will be running a category for these leaderboards as soon as I possibly can. I was wondering if, by any chance, this decision could be revisited on these grounds?

Thanks.

I'd agree with that. I hadn't given these a huge thought, they were just ideas that popped into my head and ones I wanted to materialise before I forgot them. I can understand that it would be confusing for newbies, but I just feel as though something, somewhere should mention TASes, because boy, they're fun to watch.

I've been on multiple different games and this just popped into my mind. I'm not sure about how people feel about this, but I feel as though as I look down my speedrun.com page, my 3rd, 2nd and 1st (which I don't have many of :'(((( ) look quite out of place and a bit disorganised. This is extremely nit picky, but I feel as though adding a customisation ability for the user to change their personal 3rd, 2nd and 1st place icons would make a better looking interface. Of course, when you're looking down a game's feed, the first second and third place would be their own personal icons (for instance SMS' gold, silver and bronze shines), but on your own feed you could make it so that they're all the same and custom to you.

Also, I was wondering whether anyone has thought about adding a feature where we could look at TASes on a game's page for those that have one - potentially a little section of the page showing the best known TAS. In my opinion this would be quite destructive to have it at the top of the page as this may confuse newbies to the site, but maybe a section at the bottom of the page or on the side showing TASes for the few games lucky enough to have them would be cool.

Thoughts?

Ahh I see - I had no idea. How does Pac know whose is whose? It's not much but once I get stuff sorted I'll chuck in some more :)

Hey - I donated to the site, it was 1 euro 69 (not much but I only had £1.25 in my account). Was wondering how I could go about getting my gradient name? Thanks.

I'm going to have to pull out completely, as I've said in the skype group. I'm not nearly organised enough and know too little to go, so I'm sorry to say this, but I'm going to have to definitely pull out. Apologies.

Oh brill! Thanks :). Not too sure on how forum stuff works so my bad!

Hey guys.

I've been using this site for a while, and I love how it keeps track of every run I do, but one thing I've grown to not like that much is the fact that people who visit your page have to click "show misc categories" for you to see them. This kind of makes me reluctant to do these categories (don't ask why, I'm obsessed with organisation), and I was wondering whether you'd ever consider implementing a choice for a person to show misc categories by default on their page.

Obviously, for the games themselves, misc categories could stay under the "show misc categories" tab - I just feel like having a choice to show them by default wouldn't go a miss. Maybe with the misc category, you could put some marker on the page if it's shown by default denoting that it's a misc category. I know I'm being obscenely picky, but as someone who loves to have control over their runs and loves to track everything, I feel for someone like me, this implementation would be great.

Thanks guys.

What Josh said is correct in that I'm more than happy to drop No GO should Josh get in - I'm happy to do the run, but if you're to choose, then obviously I'd prefer for Josh's Crash 2 100% run to get in and for me to do TWoC.

Also, I'll be coming along with my dad, and need updating with how much it'll cost for him to attend the event. Thanks.

Yeah that's fine, was just a suggestion as all :).

Auto sorting would be fine, also, infact, it would probably do the same job. Just anything that's worth the time, really. Whatever's easiest for you guys to implement would be a bonus to an already great website :)

For me they're not, they're ordered starting with the game with the most recent PB to the game with the least recent PB, if that makes sense.
