Disputing "Love Always Remains" Timing
4 months ago

Hi there!

I re-timed all three PBs on the Love Always Remains leaderboard and I am disputing the current timing, since my run is faster than the other two but is listed as 3rd place. I downloaded all three runs and re-timed them with Avidemux. I used the following frames to time the runs:

  • Start: the first frame after the title screen disappears
  • End: the first frame of the marriage ceremony cutscene

This results in the following times:

  1. Laika: 0:41.800
  2. Hadiez: 0:41.869
  3. Zavlon7: 0:42.300

Here you can watch all runs synced at the same time: http://viewsync.net/watch?v=kLruziIEMjw&t=1.39&v=B5qKhbKImPo&t=0.71&v=xE4qNvb7Uhk&t=0.37&mode=solo

You can clearly see that Zavlon7's run is slower than mine, yet it is listed as being faster. The timing on the leaderboard clearly isn't correct, so I ask the moderators to fix the leaderboard.

Thanks!

I've said this once, timing starts one frame before the title screen disappears. and the end is the exact frame "press space to restart" appears. All runs have been retimed with retime.mcbe.wtf, and their screens appear before yours. Times have only been changed by a bit. So thanks, but no.

First of all, to compare runs, it doesn't matter if time starts on the frame I used or one frame earlier, as long as all three runs are timed with the same starting frame.

If you watch the runs side-by-side with the link I provided, you can clearly see that my run is faster than the run by Zavlon7. It should not be lower on the leaderboard.

The issue with using the "Press Space To Restart" screen as the end frame is, that the marriage ceremony screen is not the same length on all runs:

  • Hadiez: 0:04.184
  • Laika: 0:04.683
  • Zavlon7: 0:04.000

There is up to more than half a second difference between the length of the marriage ceremony cutscene. So time should end on the first frame of the marriage to ensure fairness.
