We are planning to wait an extra two weeks after the game releases before we begin accepting run submissions. This is standard procedure for new releases, but we have three main reasons:

1. This gives everybody a fair chance to play the game before any leaderboard rules need to be set in stone.

2. This allows us to properly build up the moderation team, establish a clear long-term rule set, etc, without needing to rush that process to keep up with verifying runs from day 1.

3. The VR nature of this game could potentially complicate things, and we may need extra time to account for this.

We may choose to open the leaderboards early if we feel that the embargo is no longer necessary, but for now the plan is to wait until November 5th.
