SbS1% and SbS2% are not competitive, so I think they okay to remove them.
I think it would be good to add reverse mode (TA Mode: L1/R1 when selecting course) and 3 original courses (Stage 11-13 or Original 1-3) to each course in the level leaderboard, but I think it should not allowed the 3 unlocked cars, TAITO car, 1-box and truck car. to increase the competitiveness.
How about that?
Here are some categories to add:
Level leaderboard main categories
-Stage 11 'Okutone'
-Stage 12 'Akagi'
-Stage 13 'Komugi Pass'
Level leaderboard sub category
-Reverse
Delete categories: Fastest Lap, SbS1% and SbS2%
1% and 2% were made because they are canonically different games. In fact we can go a step further and say Side by side special 2000 is another game entirely. The version I'm playing doesn't have a reverse mode. We can either make an entire new game listing for 2000 or try some kind of compromise. We could remove 1% and 2% and in its place, there can be a time trial and an arcade category. Fastest lap is going to stay simply because its common to have such a category in racing games.
I have original and 2000 version, but these are the same game. with a few exceptions (Difficulty level, Reverse)
If you create a main category of "Time Attack" and sub categories of "SbS1", "SbS2", "10 Courses", "13 Courses", "Reverse",
SbS1/SbS2 = Arcade + Original and 2000
10 Courses/13 Courses = Original and 2000
Reverse = 2000 only
You will have these categories. I think this is probably the best idea.
For transparency, I am currently grinding out a different game and plan to come back to this one. As for the categories and leaderboards, I was the one that set up most of the page. I'm gonna leave this for the head moderator this time. If nothing is done I'll take care of it eventually.
