Attention Monkey Island 2 Speedrunners!

It has been a long time coming, but we are finally making updates to the Monkey Island 2 leaderboards. As we have learned more about the how the game works and as ScummVM (the tool used by most runners to play the game) has been getting updated, it was becoming clear that the old system had some flaws. The first major change is we are going to add sub-categories for ScummVM vs Non-ScummVM runs in the any% and any% Lite categories. Additionally, we are going to lump all the c99 glitch based runs into one singular category with sub-categories for Normal, Lite, and True any%. We have also decided to mix in Set Seed runs with the any%/any% Lite ScummVM runs* with the Set Seed being a variable.

With the release of ScummVM 2.8 we will also be updating the rules for all the runs in the ScummVM categories. Keep an eye on the rules going forward as you may be required to provide ScummVM version info when submitting future runs.

Please be patient with us as we go through the process of rearranging the leaderboard. This will take some time to make sure we get it right. If you see a run disappear, rest assured that it is not lost and will make its way back onto the proper leaderboard in time.

*We will be keeping an eye on future Set Seed runs and may re-incorporate them in their own leaderboard if things become notably different.
