I would just like to have one place to share some changes I would love to see to the FFC leaderboards but would like everything posted in one easy to read location, instead of relying on a couple of peoples' opinions on Discord, only for it to get buried a day later.

1. Unban DLC: It is extremely difficult not to have access to the DLC due to the simplicitiy of wiimfi. Nowadays all you need to do is change your DNS or possibly reset your friend id if you played the game prior to nintendo wifi shutting down (in that case you likely already have the DLC). If all else fails one can also just use a save file with the DLC already as most people play with emulator or those that don't might have a R4 card.

2. Combining NG+ IGT and NG+ RTA: I think these two leaderboards should be combined as they are effectively the same category. The reason they are separated is due to the long history of the category and its use of IGT. I believe that both categories should be combined and use both timings but prioritize RTA (see Any%). There are some downsides which are mostly caused by IGT being slightly inconsistent but luckily no one loses any placements on the leaderboard and it makes it easier to keep improving (seconds are easier to improve on than IGT minutes).

3. New category for postgame: Most games have one, and FFC has a lot of post game content that rarely gets replayed such as the new cups. The biggest challenge would be defining what one would consider a completed post game. 230 fp? All missions cleared? With or without DLC? Just the post game cups? Post game cups then Joe?

4. A medium sized category: I think a great idea would be defeating all post game significant story characters. This might take 20-30 minutes but could be extended if don boneyard and egg-xact timing are included. Perhaps an entirely different objective to make a 30 minute to 1 hour speedrun? This duration seems to be the sweetspot that several speedrunners crave. Of course something like this would likely just be another side category.

Please share your thoughts, I would like to have a conversation so we can have somewhere that clearly states how runners feel about possible new changes to make it easier to implement new changes in the near future. If there is something that I missed or something that you would like to have or something that you don't like about the leaderboard, please share those thoughts too.
