Hello runners!

While it is a few weeks late, I wanted to congratulate everyone on the BONKERS amount of runs and all the effort put in through the first ever year of SA1's fully independent leaderboard!

in our first year, we've already seen well over 80 runs added to the board across every single category!

The WR for every category has been shattered multiple times over, with several dominating players in multiple fields. Knux and Super Sonic saw a HUGE uptick in competition, with the WR in those categories being traded and fought for by multiple extremely talented runners.

Just this week, SQeefy shattered the long-lasting Knux story record set by Nim months ago, and not even he was safe from Venxm's impressive 25:xx!

Sonic's story has been lowered by over TEN MINIUTES Tails has been traded back and forth with no signs of slowing down Knuckles competition is continuing to heat up, with multiple runners coming back for the crown Amy's story has seen new innovations which have yet to be pushed Gamma's story has been changed forever by the introduction of SRE Big is finally being threatened by Venxm's fishing prowess

Here's to an amazing year of Sonic Adventure, and to many more amazing years ahead! With new rulesets and competitive standards, only time will tell how far this game can go!

Thanks again to every runner for your hard work and dedication, the fire of Sonic Adventure stays lit because of all of you!
