2020 has been a big year for Postal, now that we have a loadless timer and an overhauled leaderboard we can finally start to move towards better and more fair timing methods. The ultimate goal that we are working towards is being able to compare times across the board more fairly and regardless of load times. Since we want to slowly move towards sorting all times by their respective loadless times we have decided we are going to implement a new rule starting on the 1st of January 2021.
From that day onward ALL SUBMISSIONS MUST INCLUDE A LOADLESS TIME.
All prior submissions will stay, don't worry. We're also not going to start sorting anything differently, for now at least. All that we ask of you is that if you submit a new run you submit one with a loadless time attached to it.
Please note: "Loadless" does NOT mean the built in in-game timer. Loadless actually refers to Intercom's extension called PostalLoads for Livesplit. A guide on how to use it and set it up as well as an updated FAQ and precise run requirements will come soon.
The goal here is to fill the leaderboards with a lot of loadless times so we can ultimately make a switch to it. Once we have worked out all the fine details I will also update the rules and this post. Thank you for understanding!
UPDATE 1: Thanks to ollymuirs for creating a tutorial on how to set the loadless tool up, it can be found here:
Patch 5100 added the day selection from the main menu, you can now submit ILs for all the 5 days, please read the rules and good luck!
