Gameboy Color Should Have An Entirely Separate Page

Hello. I've recently been practicing runs on the Gameboy Color and i notice that it would actually be impossible to score high on the leaderboard other than via filtering for only GBC. This is because every version of Mr Driller on the other platforms except for GBC has difficulty and lives options, one of which makes the game a bit faster, whereas the GBC version has only "2500ft Challenge" / "5000ft Challenge" / "Survival Mode" / "High Scores" and no options menu to speak of.

Since the GBC version lacks these extra options, I believe it should be given a completely separate page here on speedrun com.

I really want to submit my 2m29s run but it feels bad knowing it would be impossible to ever get in the top 10 on the overall leaderboard on this page.

OK, I wait for your replaying. if SRC mods approved your request, You will be a mod for a new game leaderboard. if not, I will add a sub-category for GB.

SRC mods approved the category request. I'm setting it up in my free time. Hoping to be able to copy / manually submit the GBC runs from here to there if it lets me. Also wanna invite you to co-mod if you'd like, since you're already mod in all the other Mr Driller categories :)

I am sorry to reply lately. I see that you have copied the gbc runs to the gbc leaderboard, I think it’s time to remove these runs from this leaderboard.

Also you need to note that “The timer will not count during the period from death to resurrection.” Only <mr driller 1> has this timing mechanism, but not everyone likes it. Actually I'm considering whether to change timing method to real timer.

And Thank you to invite me. yeah, I glad to be the co-mod for the leaderboard of Mr. driller gbc.
