Wooo nice! On a side note, why isn’t that category just called “Revolution” rather than “Console”?

[EricZen]

Wooo nice! On a side note, why isn’t that category just called “Revolution” rather than “Console”?

Revolution has it's own leaderboard. I guess it's because this version is quite different in terms of speedrunning with different categories that only make sense for this version.

[Hunchman801]

It's also because SpeedBot doesn't display the name of the game, only the category. I might want to change that at some point.

[Greengoop]

Yeah, looks like there’s different leaderboards on the website. Maybe this calls for the creation of a new topic?

Congratulations Torcnein and EricZen!

[hoodlumsworld]

GG guys! And another new record. When is sub-58?

Like Torc showed this is very much possible:

[Hunchman801]

And yet another WR! Congrats guys.

[Greengoop]

Maybe we need a Speedrun Betting Topic for stuff like when milestones like Sub-58 or Sub-57 are reached?

Such a dumb way of losing time in Prison Ship. Otherwise I guess the run was kinda decent minus the expected timeloss in Rock and Lava.

This run was perfect (I don't know if I had any bigger mistakes). A bit of the time loss was due to the Precipice 1 OoB skip, which could have saved 8s more, but is scary (especially when your hands shake).

This FG lead to my best pace ever entering Cobd with being 30s ahead of rekki but cobd had to be cobd again. Well as sad as it is it's still really nice to see how clean I can play until this point. I just need to get good at cobd and I might be able to destroy this category for good.
