we already have a filter on any% but id like to run against my best melting time, not my best time overall. This game has very cool characters that call for differing playstyles, and it would be cool for there to be competition in the melting filter, plant, yv, etc
It was in discussion some weeks ago and I wanted to experiment with it but got busy with other IRL stuff. It will probably happen soon, at least to try. There's a risk it makes the lb look cluttered with kinda empty categories, but we'll see.
In the meanwhile, as you said you can filter by char, which allows you to see everybody's pb on the char you're interested in. You can always submit a character specific pb, even if it doesn't beat your "general" pb.
Until this board adds that, there's also a spreadsheet that does that here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15AXX3h_iloGSKSaVybGQ4jOiP7RVRqnhyK0J7wuc_QQ/edit#gid=0
That spreadsheet was initially made to keep track of kills and distance WRs - not to compete with this board - but you can submit specific character runs there for any%, all-areas, Captain, and separate NTT runs of those categories. It's not as populated as this board currently, but I have a few character runs I've been working on to submit there too. It's managed by the staff of the partnered NT Discord server.
Last time I checked that LB I transfered all the runs from that LB here, for completion sake. I'll try to check regurlaly if new times are added. Also, I still want to transfer every time (with video evidence) from Ultime Decathlon to here, I've started but lacked the time to do it completely.
