@camero56 @AquaBlake @ShinkenX

Hey All,

Just wanted to quickly ping all the runners here as I've just noticed something in a submitted run and a run we already have up on the board.

Camero56's two most recent accepted runs are actually using Turbo 3 in the settings, but the current rule set lists Turbo 2 as the accepted turbo setting. I've manually frame counted a few common moves from all of the runners and determined that Cam's 5:18 run, AquaBlake's latest, and ShikenX's current run do appear to be on Turbo 2.

I do apologize for not catching this sooner, but I thought it might be a good time to talk about the rules for arcade. Turbo 2 is also confirmed 20% slower by my frame count than Turbo 3 which does make it an uneven playing field. In both a tournament setting and online play, Turbo 3 is the commonly accepted Turbo speed as it has no cut or duplicated frames. There might be some merit in changing things to accept Turbo 3 for Arcade perfect, as it does play much more like a tournament setting.

So, we could either do one of two things:

1. Keep the Turbo settings on Turbo 2 for Arcade and remove Camero56's times that use Turbo 3. No leaderboard positions would be affected.

2. Change the Arcade perfect rule set to allow up to Turbo 3 and keep everything as is. Since we're the only runners of this version, now would be the time.

What does everyone think?

I'm personally in favor of #2, changing things to accept up to Turbo 3, but it doesn't matter much to me either way.

Once again, I do apologize I didn't catch the settings screen sooner Cam, entirely my fault.

Okay, I think we have a consensus among the runners now.

We're going with option 2: Change the Arcade perfect rule set to allow up to Turbo 3 and keep everything as is. Since we're the only runners of this version, now would be the time.

Arcade category runs will allow up to Turbo 3 to fit more with the tournament scene. You're welcome to use lower than Turbo 3 in your runs as there certainly is merit for being the fastest on lower speeds, and I'll hopefully be adding a variable soon to account for this.

If you have any questions or objections, please feel free to voice them here or DM me!
