I did try something out like this but didn't try again, you might be interested on this. I solo capped the points on Gravel Pit with all classes in order. I did mess up a lot, though.

Do you want to change timing to end when the Crumpet cell counter reaches 0? I wouldn't really mind that, would that help you?

By the way there doesn't have to be an official way to split. You can always retime afterwards, too. On my runs I just submitted the time on my timer instead of retiming, though.

Glad to know we have another runner!

This game has many different character skins, some of which can affect gameplay and have different abilities. Most are fairly minor, but Mega Man has a Rokko Chan skin that has significant changes (for example, dash jumping like Bass) that make it basically a direct upgrade for the Mega Man categories, leaving the other skins as slower options.

It was brought up recently to make a misc. category for Mega Man with Rokko Chan not allowed, then later a rule change to ban Rokko Chan from the main Mega Man categories and move her to a misc. category. Voting on Discord opened on May 12th, 2020. It will be open for one week and close on May 19th, 2020. React with 👍 to vote for Mega Man No Rokko Chan being a misc. category, and react with 👎 to vote for Rokko Chan becoming the misc. category and banning the skin from all Any% Mega Man categories.

I checked all the stickies and didn't find it, but I did find this https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_cOIEnuKIQ-3LA_U0ygpiL87PTSBPlHmKDId0vC7alo/edit?usp=sharing

G2H's Kingdom Runs has the channel #bfdia_5b, which was the main place to discuss speedruns in the past.

I have opened #5b-speedruns on the 5b editing Discord today. You can talk about speedruns, challenge runs, TASes, and other superplays there. https://discord.gg/qtePFSH

edit Aug. 27, 2020: 5b editing Discord has been much more popular since I've made this post. It's now the main hub for speedrun discussion, so I've changed the Discord link to it on the sidebar.

For full-game, timing starts when your character is selected. I've now made a list of the start of all character select animations. This is what I time off of, since some can happen before the box starts to close. Bass sometimes only moves like a pixel forward on the first frame so it can be hard to see.

Mario: Jumps off the ground Luigi: Wall appears to the right Link: Faces towards the screen Samus: Faces towards the screen Simon: Wall appears to the right, gets whip Mega Man: Transforms Bass: Inches to the right very slightly Bill: Faces away from screen, legs apart Ryu: Wall appears to the right Sophia: Jason appears from the seat

You can apply for SMBC speedrun.com moderator, moderator for this Discord, or both. With me being more busy and the staff being small, now is a good time for more helping hands.

Applications close on November 15th, 2019, at 11:59 pm CST.

Seeding will be done by fastest PB, then randomized for players with no times. Runs have to be submitted by the beginning of Sunday, November 3rd, 2019, at 12:00 am Central Time.

Three days until the tournament starts! We have 5 entrants so far. Happy Halloween!

nice dude

Now I've made a #tournament-signups channel. Say you want to participate in our Bass Any% tournament there to sign up, and you'll be given the Tournament Participant role. If you already have it, then you don't need to.

We will be hosting a tournament for SMB1 Bass Any%. We held voting and Bass won. As a popular character and a currently hotly contested category, it's a good fit for our first tournament. It will be double elimination, best 2 out of 3 games all the way through. Any difficulty or custom rules is allowed. Round 1 will be on the week of November 3-9, 2019. Play against your opponent when you're both available. Streaming your runs will be required, we can help you if you can't or don't know how.

Signups and discussion will be in the Discord: https://discordapp.com/invite/Sze2JTH

We can give you a "Tournament Participant" role there. You need to join the Discord to be in the tournament.

You could upload a video to YouTube privately then use the comma and period keys to frame advance. Here is how you can tell the frames your run took and get a millisecond time.

First, find the framerate by right click and click Stats for nerds. Next to Current / Optimal res there will be a number after the @ sign, and that's the framerate. It will usually be 30 or 60. Note that some games don't run exactly at 30 or 60 fps, you would need to research that, but this is how you can tell the length of your run in the video.

Next, find the stating frame of your run. The frame before you see something the run starting can be your "zero" point. Find that then count how many frames into the second it was. For example, if after three period key presses the time changes to the next second, at 30 fps it would be the 28th frame. (28th frame -> 29th -> 30th -> 1st frame of the next second) Write down the timestamp like 1:32:43;28, which means h:mm:ss;ff.

Now do the same thing for the end frame of the run, like the first frame you see the game ends. Write that after the starting timestamp.

Subtract the end time from the start time. For example, 3:33:59;30 - 1:32:43;28 = 2:01:16;02. Now all you need to do is convert the number of frames to decimal by dividing the number of frames by the framerate. So, 2 frames at 30 fps would be 2/30 = 0.066666... I would always round down instead of rounding up, because rounding up would give a longer time than what the runner reached. So for example, the final time with milliseconds would be 2:01:16.066.

Beat levels 1-20 from the “PLAY” button on the main menu. Video is required. Using codes is banned.

Time starts upon clicking “PLAY”. Time ends upon the congratulations screen appearing after beating Level 20.

Sorry for the late response. I might be interested in this, however with 40 stages it would take a lot of time to moderate. But another question is, what subcategories would we have? There could be Meatball Any%/100%, Explosive Meatball Any%, and Any Meatball Any%/100%. But with all of those it would be a whopping 200 subcategories. What do you think? Do you want to upload some IL run videos?

I already told you but for future reference you need 7 totems to unlock Explosive Meatballs. You earn a totem for blasting all of the targets in a stage.

Cube Roll is a Webgame and is in the Carelics series. https://www.speedrun.com/cuberoll/full_game https://www.speedrun.com/carelics

Also, the "edit game" settings still link to the old locked thread instead of this one.

edit: Thank you!

Thank you! That worked.
