Hello everyone! I came to warn you about the changes that have occurred these last few months in relation to the timing of the categories, as you may have noticed.

-> Why did we do this in the first place?

Well, recently, we had noticed that runs made on PC had faster loading screens than on console, which was quite unfair compared to other players, as most play on console (PS4/Xbox One), and we didn't want to separate the leaderboard on PC and Console, so we decided to add this separation between Time with Loads and Time without Loads, to be fairer between PC and Console players

-> Time with Loads x Time without loads: What is it and how does the timing work?

Well, in short:

Time with loads: It's the total time of your run, from start to finish, including all loading screens (the famous RTA - Real Time Attack):

Your timing: -Time starts as soon as the screen starts flashing after selecting a mission. -And it ends when the text "Mission Complete" appears

Time without Loads: It's your gameplay time only, loading screens will be removed from the end time

Your timing: -Time pauses when the screen goes black when entering a mission that features a loading screen -Time starts running again when you can see the character customization screen

Leaving a mission is almost the same:

-Time pauses when the screen goes completely black after the text of "Mission Complete" appears -Time starts running again when the screen starts to dim, allowing you to see your character spawning

-> Categories that will use this method vs Categories that will not use this method

A very short and simple topic

Categories Used: Full Story Mode, All Zombie Quests, All L.E.A.F. Quests, Zombie Quests and L.E.A.F. Quests (and all of its subcategories). And some subcategories of the New Game category, which will be Gnome Statue 100% and Snow Globe Quest 100%

Categories that did not use the method: In the categories that will be mentioned, you should only put their time without loads, since their respective timings do not allow the inclusion of loading screens, if a run presents a time in the region of "time with loads ", the time will be removed for leaderboard organization issues.

Main Leaderboard: Garden Ops, Graveyard Ops, Turf Takeover, Crazy Targets and Mini-Games.

Category Extensions: Backyard Story Quests, Chomper Pizza, Zomburguer Delivery, Infinite Time, Trial of Gnomus, The Guardian Room (and all its subcategories) and New Game (with Gnome Statue Any%, Target% and Mystery of the Moon%).

Basically these were all the changes, if you have any doubts, feel free to ask in the comments or ask the moderators, thanks for your attention.
