Hello everyone!

We've readjusted the 2FM Leaderboards like we said we would. Looks simple and clean https://www.speedrun.com/kh2fm

We've also revived the Category Extension boards by adding the new categories https://www.speedrun.com/kh2ce

Any feedback on its presentation would be great.

Hello everyone!

We have been considering the LB layouts with the addition of the new categories and we added them to the main page ONLY for the meantime. We have come up with a new LB layout that we all think will make the Main/Misc./ CE page look clean and easily digestible.

Main Board - Any% | All Worlds | Gold Crown | JJ Misc. - Every category that doesn't start on the title screen CE - everything else that starts on the title screen. (All ASS/Most Worlds/Silver Crown/All Puzzles/All Super Bosses/Plat)

Having the main board holding the defining categories of 2FM will allow for new runners to see popular & fun categories that the game is known for.

Having misc. hold categories that start from a save point show runners unique categories that stand out vs categories that start on the main screen.

Having CE hold everything else will revive the CE page and allows the main page to look neat and proper. The definition we're going by to put these categories in CE, is the fact they are either slightly extended or slightly shortened from the big 4 on the main page.

Most worlds = slightly shortened all worlds Plat% = slightly extended JJ

We also wish to remove 100% from the leaderboards due to the fact that it has not been ran. it was moved to misc. and has been left there ever since. We don't see the point of having it on the boards, due to it's history (or lack of) and because JJ is a more fitting '100%'

We are welcoming any ideas and/or changes you would like to see. We want the LBs to be as clean and as professional as possible, so any constructive input will be valued.

Hello everyone!

The KH2 mod team is delighted to announce that we added new Categories that people found interest over the summer on the Leaderboards. The new Categories are:

All ASS (Absent Silhouettes + Sephiroth) All Puzzles ASB (All Super Bosses) Most Worlds Underdrome RTA

If anybody has questions feel free to ask us through personal messages or here. Our DM's are always open for discussions

(Note that these categories might stay to the main tab or get moved to the Misc. tab/KH Category Extension)

Adding NG+:

Most of you probably already saw this, but we added Critical Mode as a difficulty on the boards. We also added NG+ for Any% and Level 1 Any%. Currently we are unsure if we should add NG+ for other Categories (Ex. All Lucky Emblems). Let us know if you would like to add NG+ to other Categories.

Battle Gates RTA:

Since many people have requested us to add a 'Battle Gates RTA' Category on the boards, we will add it as soon as people give us feedback about the rules down below.

Rules: -Timing start on pressing Yes on Entering first portal -Timing end on last hit in Final Portal -No Stat Boosts (except for AP Boosts) are allowed -No Cuisines are allowed -Must show stats and equipment after the run -Timing is RTA -Must Show difficulty

These are the rules that we and other people in the community came up with. The reason why we would not allow Stat Boosts and Cuisines, is because on Lv99 you literally one shot everything if you maximize your stats, and we think that it wouldn't be fun at all (for Lv1 Cuisines it's debatable so let us know what you think) As for the Difficulties and Levels, Battle Gates RTA will be Lv1 and Lv99 on all difficulties.

Greetings everyone! We are grateful that we have been given the mod role for the KH2 leaderboards. We will all do our best to fulfil our role as moderators to the benefit of the community. In light of this, we wish to make modifications and changes to the KH2 speedrunning scene.

FIRST and foremost we would like to make some beneficial changes to the leaderboard layout:

New KH2 Category Extentions: We want to fill KH2 Category Extentions with more categories that are just for fun.

Miscellaneous: We want to fill Miscellaneous with runs that don't start the timer at the title screen (ex. Data Org, CoR, Hades Paradox,and Mushroom 13 RTA) and remove those that do (ex. Platinum Trophy RTA)

Gold Crown / Silver Crown: We want to add a Dropbox for the Crown categories to clean up Leaderboards. (like the Misc tab ALL crowns will have ALL difficulties available.

'More...': We want to change standard and proud from being classified as misc sub-categories on the Leaderboards as it makes it tedious to view all categories/consoles and somewhat downgrades categories/consoles that are hidden. Draz has already done this so let us know what you think.

SECOND,We wish to add new categories to the website, the categories presented are categories we believe would be a good edition. ALL of these categories will be voted upon by you, the community. The categories that receive the most votes and positive feedback will be implemented. People can also introduce their own category ideas! We will not force any of the below mentioned categories to the Leaderboards. New Category Ideas:

Puzzle% : Collect all puzzle pieces and complete all puzzles. Timer ends either when Mickey Symbol pops up or Xemnas is done (To Be Discussed).

All Super Bosses% : Beat ALL Superbosses in the game. Timer ends when you kill the last boss available.

Keyblade% : Acquire all Keyblades the game can offer. Timer ends when you collect the last keyblade available.

Bronze Crown% : Ends either when you do Lingering Will/Data Org/Mushrooms (3 Different Sub categories).

Most Worlds% : Complete all worlds other than OaW/Atlantica. Timer ends at Final Xemnas kill.

Underdrome RTA : Complete all cups for the Underdrome in Olympus Coliseum (OC) when talking to Panic. Timer starts after first cup is selected, Timer ends when you finish the last round for the run.

100 Acre Woods RTA : Complete the entire book (Doesn't include first visit (Hollow Bastion 2). Timer starts when you enter the book, Timer ends when you get the Orichalcum+.

All ASS% : Beat Sephiroth and all Absent Silhouettes. Timer ends when you beat Sephiroth or Final Xemnas (To Be Discussed).

No Abilities % : Complete the run without equipping any Abilities on Sora. (For Lv1 equipping No Experience is required).

LASTLY, we want to change/add some things on the website (for example Guides). KH2 SR Website:

Guides: The guides have been abandoned and we wish to revive the section of the website with updated Menu notes and Speedrun guides.

Resources: The 'Splits' Section should be filled with blank splits for all categories (Worlds Splits & Sub Splits). The 'Tools' Section should be filled with differing links such as speedrunning timers, recording/streaming software. The 'Saves' and 'Patches' Sections should be removed as we are unable to provide anything for these sections.

Rules: The rules will be looked over and re-worked to benefit the community and make it harder to abuse.

THESE are the changes that we wish to implement in the near future. But we don't want to do this alone!

We welcome the community to help bring forth ideas and changes they would like to see, as well as assisting in the creation of new category ideas and the management of the resources/guides, as we believe there are many detailed and well made documents that will benefit being shown to the public. Please give us constant feedback on the changes we want to make as well as any potential changes that we might not have presented. Don't hesitate to provide documents and ideas for review but do so in a reasonable manner. Remember, we are all on the same team and we need to work together for the community to advance.
