United StatesI know for some communities, they have prerequisites for submitting to their board, among other things. I think for certain Pokemon games, you need to be part of the PSR discord (don't quote me on that), along with some other things depending on their community and leaderboard. You can usually search up the game and figure out the rules for submission and categories!
Hope this helps!
Earthbound Glitchless, because I'm a masochist and I love getting BODIED by RNG.
On a serious note. The game is a very unique choice of a speedrun as it does combine execution and many forms of RNG. For high level runs, you have to consider about 34 minutes of going along a set manipulated route, then have the knowledge to react and perform in unexpected situations (this happens a lot). With spawns being visible in the overworld, there are many possibilities to avoid fights or to surprise those enemies. If you get into an undesired encounter, there is a lot of information and knowledge available to you to react accordingly.
I'm a numbers and information guy, so I like knowing stats, RNG values, and other things to I can memorize them and implement them into my runs. With this all of this, along with menu optimization, quick boss fights, and just overall craziness of the route/run, it's one of my favorite RPGs and speedgames ive ever had the pleasure of running.
The community is pretty okay also. ??
I heard the game of Life is a terrible speedrun. Too much work, debt, and you just die in the end. 0/10
I also applied. Best of luck to all of you
