hey all :)
new around here, curious about the state of things :)
looks like a new update since 2.1, 2.62 now. Some changes that are big! any thoughts about those? kinda like the game modes function now :)

Also, I haven't looked at all of the leaderboards really, but I'm noticing a lot of emulator runs! And I'm playing on console, the RTA and IGT are pretty space out, and I do think I'm getting a lot of lag in the game.. curious about how that fits into the way the runs are timed and such :)
thx :)
edit: Actually, I feel like I'm even seeing different methods of being timed... some runs indicate one starting and end point, but the rules indicate another. Any helps here? whats the most accurate way of timing?
edit edit: Additionally, I think I'm confused about how these runs are being ranked? For 50cc, Skips, Grand Prix, Mushroom Cup, the rankings are seemingly backwards? With the Gold time being much slower than the Bronze? Any indication there?
Any consideration of using IGT to rank the runs too? Doing a little bit of science between EMU and Console timing, I think console has a significant amount of lag... Begs the question of separating the boards or qualify the methods. I don't mean to storm in here like I know everything, and surely I don't... But considering there aren't alot of console runs on the boards, it might be worth a conversation :)
Thanks!
