Hello, I have a few questions about rules for running this game as well as the possibility of adding any categories.

#1 - How should we record it? I have both a physical copy + FCEUX, but cannot easily set up a capture card in my home right now. Just curious on what method of recording would be acceptable for uploading runs?

#2 - Is there a possibility of getting a few more categories? I was thinking something along the lines of 'all historical scenarios', or 'highest war patrol rank.'

Thank you so much for the info! Got a few things to read and set up but very eager to start :3

Hey everyone, I'm Karus. With a lot of extra time on my hands at the moment, finally had a revelation that I might be able to actually compete and submit some of my own speedruns here.

I do have a lot of questions, which I know isn't really the point of this forum, but if there's any advice y'all have I'd love it!

My goal is to run Silent Service, an old NES game. But, to be honest, I don't know where to start. I have a physical copy and original NES, and finally have a capture device for analog, but no dedicated PC for it yet. Also can run it on FCEUX, but not sure if that's allowed.

There's lots of little questions I'm sure I'm missing. Like...if time starts when I make a menu selection, I'm not sure how to start a 'split' graphic on the screen or anything.

Also not sure how to make a submission for a category that doesn't exist yet. >.>

Sorry, that was a ton of questions and very little intro. Anyways, I'm really interested in running this game, it has a lot of sentimental value for me. My grandfather used to play it with me a ton while I was growing up. He was a Navy veteran, and I am too. It's kinda interesting too that we both love it, neither one of us was ever on a submarine.

Anyways...that's about it for initial post. Sorry for such a long one, I tend to write/type a lot. Good to meet ya in advance!
