We in the discord are currently discussing and forming opinions on what to do regarding leaderboards. Stay tuned and join the discord to see the discussions!

We have no plans to add any partial game categories to the leaderboards, especially one that, at your own admission, would have times plateau pretty quickly. There are also no glitches that would speed up getting to or defeating Creaking Skull quickly known at this time.

Thanks for understanding!

Once you show a completed run I'm okay to add as a misc. category.

I think even JupiterClimb would agree that we don't need a leaderboard for a romhack that only one person did one attempt stream of. In the future if there's significant interest in it, a separate page will be made for the Meta Knight romhack.

Sorry I didn't reply to your message sooner I've been busy, added under Individual Level categories.

Changed, ty for pointing out.

I purchased these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B087CJYG2M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Sorry I don't have a better link than amazon but they can probably be found on another retailer website if you dig.

I talked about this in the discord but since this run has so many question marks around it (usage of turbo, accidental fight on easy) I'm not going to bother with submitting it to the leaderboards but I will post it to the forums for posterity.

After discussion among Hetfield90 and myself, along with agreeance with JupiterClimb, we will be splitting the Order of Ecclesia leaderboards between console (DS/3DS) and Emulator.

No OOB is close enough to glitchless that we don't feel the need to add a glitchless category. For 100% there's All Furniture which is the best definition we can come up with

Version 1.8 of Iji has been released within the last month or so. To adjust for this on the leaderboards the "1.7" subcategory has been changed to "1.7+" which means you can play on either 1.7 or 1.8 for that category. 1.8 should save a little time in theory because all reloads are much faster.

Yes I can add this category

I do not own an R4 cart and have already put many hundreds of dollars into speedrunning this game so I'm sorry that I wasn't able to do accurate research. With this new information I'm open to adding an "emulated GBA slot" as a variable

After talking some talking and research myself, romscout, and NOVel have decided that any runs done on flashcart with GBA slot should be marked as emulator runs given the apparently load advantage along with the new advantage of GBA slot on being available on them.

This was an error on my part, thank you for pointing it out and it has been fixed :)

Asking to put all these categories on leaderboards is just a waste of everyone's time. Adding a silly category that 1, maybe 2 people will ever run is just a waste. You don't need a leaderboard to run the category.

We don't need to "add" emulators to the leaderboards, just submit your run as being done on emulator. If you get a top time with that emulator though it will not be accepted.

I'm not a mod for this game but you should generally at least have a video of a run of a category before you ask for it to be added to the leaderboards. Also I sorta doubt we'd add a category for Richter Glitched NG+ mostly due to lack of interest.

I'd be interested in running a zipless or glitchless category as well. I'd probably run it with damage glitch personally but i also wouldn't mind if it were banned

if u want to make a tutorial go for it, i've been meaning to make one but whenever i start i realize that the trick doesn't really need a tutorial for practical purposes, most of my advice just boils down to "practice a lot"
