Quote from Drifting Skies:

On the full list, there is this one:

"Zelda: Ocarine of Time 3D, The Legend of for Nintendo 3DS (0:36:13)"

Not sure what an Ocarine is, and I assume this is supposed to be "Ocarina".

Thanks, fixed for the next update.

Hi...this is totally low priority, but I was wondering if I could have my old SMB2 9:19 and Metroid 24:06 times migrated to https://queue.speeddemosarchive.com/queue/runner_info/213/
Thanks!

We have some migration plans that'll hopefully catch 95% of old runs once we're ready to go, so at that time they should show up.

Yes, a cucco riding the ground.

For some reason, the Bombun page's intro was replaced by placeholder text. I'll repost the intro:

Quote:

Released August 2013, your mission is to escape the building in which bombs have been planted in its every room. Since bunnies cannot difuse bombs, you just have to escape. You have 10 seconds per room and you must find the hidden key and escape through the locked door. Will you make it in time?

The Razor Freestyle Scooter page also has a placeholder intro, so I wrote one:

Quote:

Released in December 2000, Razor Freestyle Scooter capitalized on the scooter craze of the early 2000s. Although the game was criticized as a poor man's Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, it does have some comedic value with its ridiculous plot about a giant robot abducting people. Only your scooting skills can save them!

Also, how about combining Edit Runner Info and Edit Runner Settings into one page? A lot of the stuff from those pages ends up on the View Runner Info page, so it makes sense to combine the input pages. I had some trouble figuring out where to enter things like my YouTube username because I didn't realize there were two pages.

I'll see about getting those fixed. We're actually moving to a different system for updating the front end so it's possible the wrong file got copied.

And yeah I plan on combining those two pages at some point, the issue is that some of the settings require approval and others don't so it was easier just to separate them at first.

Some typos on the new Spider-Man page:

Quote:

Released in 1992, you play as Spiderman who learns that Arcade has kidnapped the X-Men, so he sets out to resuce [rescue] them so that in turn they can help him navigated [nagivate] the "Murderworld" and reach a final battle against Arcade.

May be on purpose, but on Silent Bomber page:

Quote:

He uses bombs instead of traditional weapondary, and upgrades and the like tha resemble bomberman so it's pretty cool.

I would assume it's "that" but given the quite informal language used, it's perhaps some slang I don't know. But, in the doubt, I point it.

On the same page, "weapondary" should be "weaponry".

I didn't know whether to post this here or in the SGDQ Submission topic, but...well, it's here now.

I'm guessing it's supposed to say "Processing" and not "Progessing"?

This one is my fault for not giving you the exact dates on some of the levels. For future IL submissions I will put my date of completion right next to the level comments.
Promo-1 is correct, so it is just the other 11 that needs changing.

(YYYY-MM-DD)
Mushroom-1. 2014/6/28
Mushroom-2. 2014/6/19
Mushroom-3. 2014/6/21
Mushroom-4. 2014/6/27
Mushroom-5. 2014/6/19
Mushroom-6. 2014/6/19

The only link to the replay file for the recent Rosenwhatever run is in the news post. There should be a link on the download page or the game page.

Yes we've been notified by that. As things turn our demo.pl doesn't play nice with archive links when ILs get modified, so that's broken.
We have 2 additional ILs for HDTFE so I'll be posting those in tomorrow's update and then we will rebuild the archive/demo.pl so that they will all work.
