Finally with a new update on the horizon it is the perfect time to address some of the concerns that have been brought up since the last one of these.

First thing is first I am happy to announce that we will be doing a pseudo board refresh following the update. One of the reasons for waiting for 1.0 to wipe the board was the expectation that it was going to be when older levels would receive their reworks and touch ups. Since that is occurring with the upcoming update, the current boards will get a new separate sub-category, with the reworked option being the “main” boards that will be submitted to from here on. You will still be able to submit to the old boards, but it will require downpatching, and the boards will still be fully wiped when 1.0 finally drops.

Secondly we a running a poll to try and make as much use of this refresh as we can. It is a bit long but take your time, test things in game by practicing or doing runs, you can go back to change your answers later. Please keep in mind that many levels will see major changes and the fact that ALL of the boards (full game, layers, ILs, etc) are being refreshed when considering your opinions.

The poll will run from now until the update is out whenever that is. Also this poll is just to start an open conversation and get a feel for where the community is at on various topics. Not all of the topics of this poll will lead to changes for this update.

Let me or one of the other speedrun mods know if there are any issues or anything we missed.
