I am briefly working on the boards right now, then I am going to work on verifications, starting with the oldest runs. So yours will get done today for sure.

Not to be rude, but it's only been three days. Just be patient. If it was a week or something, then that's cause for concern, but a few days? I don't think so.

While we strive to have runs verified as quickly as possible, all the mods have lives outside of the boards, which sometimes means we have to put off verifying for a couple of days. Unfortunately, we've all been busy with those lives at the same time this past weekend, so the verification process slowed down.

So I assure you it's nothing strange. It's nothing personal. We won't forget that your run is there or anything. Just please have a little patience with us, that's all we ask :)

Thanks for your interest! I appreciate the gesture, but we aren't looking for extra help at this time. Should we want a few extra hands on board, we'll be sure to let the community know though!

We currently are not looking for any more moderators. We appreciate the enthusiasm though. Should a time come when we bring on some more people, we will announce that to the community and you'll have to apply for it. Thanks!

Glad to see it got taken care of! Thanks for reaching out about it too!

I can't speak for everyone, but I apologize for the delay. I've been extremely busy this past week or two and haven't been able to verify anything. I'm going to work on that tonight.

As far as picking and choosing runs to verify, you'd have to take that up with whoever was verifying. In general, we try to start from the oldest first, so I have no idea why that would be happening.

If you come across any Cuphead speedrunning related articles, please post links to them here. Please check to make sure it hasn't already been posted first, though. Thanks!

That being said, we just thought of something, so the 100% rules are probably going to slightly change anyway

1. I don't personally see how "All Levels" can be misconstrued to exclude Mausoleums. They are in the game as playable scenarios and they add to your completion percentage. We can make the clarification if it's necessary, but I think "All Levels" is pretty self-explanatory myself.

2. Regarding all items, we made all items a requirement to keep in the spirit of the 100% category. There is an argument to be had of basing it on in-game completion, but the mods discussed this quite a bit before we posted the new categories and came to a consensus on 100% being defined by doing everything the game has to offer.

A similar argument could be made for Low% and the plane bombs, since technically, they don't add to percentage in-game. But we agreed that the spirit of the category was to beat the game doing/collecting as little as possible, which is why we made that choice

In case you haven't seen, since it requires prior preparation, the mods have decided to ban it

No, since it relies on a second file for preparation. It doesn't actually write to a new save, so you're really loading an already completed (or partially completed) file and claims that you speedran it

That's what it refers to

We are allowing it, within a small time frame of the ghost leaving the screen. I have updated the rules accordingly

There has been some discussion about co-op rules in light of recent findings, so we wanted to take a moment to clarify some things about the co-op categories.

1. You must be playing with two players. This seems like a stupid rule, but what this really means is that a single person can't be playing in place of two. This rule is important for understanding the following two rules.

2. There must be two, and only two, characters on screen at any given time. Any duplication of characters is strictly prohibited.

3. If a player dies, they must be revived. If the ghost goes offscreen before the fight is over, they may steal a life from the alive player, assuming they do so within a second of leaving the screen. If this window is missed, the fight must be restarted. Failure to do so will result in the run being rejected. This rule only applies to boss fights.

4. We are allowing online co-op through alternate means (such as Nvidia)

On second thought, I'm fine with this. The way we're setting up some of the new categories, it seems like some will require prior setup, so it'd be silly to allow that and ban this

If it's giving you whatever the highest grade is (unless it glitches), then it counts

Didn't realize Run and Gun could go up to S when we made those rules either

Nah, you're fine. It's a valid point worth talking about

Nah, you're fine. Honestly, I had forgotten about it because of all the category stuff, so it was a nice reminder!

I'm partial to not allowing it, personally, but I'll discuss it with the other mods
