I'm very proud of my doggo! Hopefully, we can do a great job of representing the NES community at AGDQ, and can raise a ton of money for Prevent Cancer Foundation! :D Thank you for featuring this story :)

Sick run! That mall stage was really good!

EDIT: Still waiting to hear back, but after watching the above video, I agree this might be an acceptable emulator to run on. Until further notice, if anyone wishes to try this, I suggest showing the "settings" menu before each attempt and/or after each reset to confirm the default settings for both the RISC and the M68K, as well as having fast forward disabled, Lockstep mode default, Pipeline emulation enabled, and blitter speed on default. In other words, all default modes. I would also show this at the end of any completed PB run for verifications' sake.

TL;DR before you begin an attempt, show a clean reset, and then show that all the settings are in their default states and ensure this is all in your video. I also recommend showing this at the end as well.

I'm hoping for clarification on the OP Priority scaling and the random start cycle options before I make any permanent and final decisions

This is very promising! I'm reaching out to them for more details. Has anyone attempted a run on this emulator yet?

If anyone has, I can make a separate leaderboard now so they can be represented, and once I get a few more answers and make my determination that this is accurate and fair, I can combine the leaderboards :)

As soon as I hear back from them, I will make my judgment. If anyone has further info to assist me in this, I'm all ears! And thank you all for informing me about this, Jag emulation is very exciting to see!

I no longer have my Jaguar to test it alongside of, but I might be able to try it out. I'd prefer it if someone with access to one could do so, but I can take a look.

That said, has anyone attempted a run on emulator? If it's accurate, and someone performs a run on it, I can analyze it more carefully. At the very least, if there's interest in allowing that platform, and it turns out to be inaccurate, we can make a separate leaderboard. But having a run to compare would make it extremely easy for me to test it out (loading times, lag, etc).

The absolute best way would be to get someone that knows the in-and-outs of the emulator's behavior (which is way above my paygrade lol) but again, even if it's inaccurate enough to warrant its' own separate board, if there's a run out there, I want to represent it.

(Also I apologize for not responding before, but I won't be adding any mods to the boards atm as there's only 2 runs ever submitted for this game, which is also the reason I haven't spent the time to design the board.)

Is there any documentation of its' accuracy out there anywhere? I'm very interested in allowing for emulator runs, and I would be happy to add an accurate emulator to the allowed ways to play this. If it isn't accurate, the only way I would endorse adding this, would be a separate category.

I would love to hear the community's thoughts! Should we allow this emulator? Should we make it a separate category? Are there any existing runs of Cybermorph out there using this emulator (or any others?)

Thank you Cardinality! I appreciate all you do for the community <3

I'm only suggesting this because there might be some interest due to the current Big 20 #17 that is preparing to be held September 9th. There is a substantial number of players that are running B-Type runs of all 6 categories in both single segment RTAs (from 0 to 5) as well as ILs.

If a category was made or at least potentially, that might fill up very quickly. I'd certainly like to submit my PB :)

Last night, my dog did this run, becoming the first ever dog to perform this speedrun.

I really hope he can get proper representation on the leaderboard! :)

Not quite a full run, but my dog will do this.

I am also curious about this. I have some plans to run Game B in the very near future, and despite it being an easy speedrun, I still think it should have leaderboard representation.

In fact, I have a VERY unique speedrun of Game B that I'll be doing in a few days. Although I would like leaderboard representation for it, I'll be performing and posting it here regardless.

Whenever I tackle a new speedrun, I always try to find out if there's anyone that has run it already. I did a search back in the day, and didn't find anything. It wasn't until I re-uploaded my vod on YouTube and got some attention from it that someone reached out.

I'm excited to see what you guys can do with it, in fact I'm kind of thinking about coming back to this at some point 👀

A short story of Rocky speedruns:

-When I ran Rocky, I could not find any speedruns period. So, my run was what I considered WR.

-a few months later, RedPepper discovered you could skip the training sequences and get "average" stats (normally if you fail them, you get WEAK stats). This meant the run was WAY faster, and thus, a new category was born (my run is now considered 100%)

-today I was made aware that DTysonator knew all of this 15 years ago and absolutely crapped on all of our runs His run is 3:41 and is now recognized as the true any% WR

Update: A co-op category has been added! :D GL runners!

We also performed an On-The-Stage Run as well. :)

@Zimmycakes what do you think? Could we get a board? :)

This was performed by myself and @Gruntiatus (who played as Beavis)

Anyone? I will begin learning this game today, and we fully plan on running the 2-player co-op category, whether there's a leaderboard or not.

It would be nice to have a proper place for 2-player speedruns to be represented for the community if you ask me. But if the mod won't respond, I suppose we'll just have to be content without the representation we hoped for.

I have also decided to add this stipulation to Rageless% as well. If there is any opposition to this change, I would appreciate feedback.
