This is an update that the Leaderboard set up has changed.

I have removed Single Segment and Multi Segment, given that no one has submitted MS. Doing so allowed me to change the difficulties from variables into categories. Normal is a main category due to it being the only submitted difficulty, and Very Hard for Big Boss runs. Easy and Hard have been moved to miscellaneous. In my opinion, that has made the leaderboard cleaner to look at and not as empty in appearance. If people ask down the line, MS could be added back, but this is better for now.

In addition, most of the Special Missions have been added to the Level Leaderboard.

If you have any questions or comments, let us know!

Two new rules have been instated. "All Emulator runs MUST show desktop and active programs/windows before starting the run. The entire emulator window MUST be displayed throughout the run." The former rules applies to Full Game Runs and Stage 04 and Stage 09 ILs. The latter applies to all emulator runs.

Why were these rules added? This is an acknowledgement of the real possibility of freezing RNG values before the run begins. While I give everyone the benefit of the doubt, I also want to ensure integrity.
