The Official Super Hard Time Attack Records
Bye bye, Very Hard!
Welcome, Super Hard!
Rules were kinda fine as they were, but I introduced some changes. So:
Rules
-1. Times must be posted in this thread in some way or another.
Videos are preferred. Not just because it's the best way to prove a time, but because I think everyone agrees that a video is far more enjoyable. If for some reason you aren't able to record your run, a screenshot is fine. The reason of this is because of certain players *coughcoughTearDropzcoughcough* can register illegit times. Anything is allowed as long as it's achieved with normal game input.
Yeah, that means dashing is allowed.
If the time is fishy, a recorded re-run will be required. Your time won't be posted as long as you can get a similar time, hence demonstrating you can do that time by yourself/ves.
NPC's are not allowed for runs. I don't think I really need to explain why.
Ah, and clearly you need to be doing Super Hard (derp). When the next difficulty level is released, old times will be linked in the new thread just like this.
Boss times will be measured basing as starting time when your character can start moving after the cutscene, and as finish time, when the game registers the kill (exp pops out).
-2. Input altering programs ARE allowed.
IE macros, joy2key, what have you. These, in my opinion, do not alter the game enough to be considered cheating. These only apply input that was already possible, albeit with precision and swiftness a mere human may not be able to achieve. Somewhat of a gray area, but for the sake of this they are NOT considered cheating.
-3. Play nice.
We're here to compete to the best of our ability or watch others do so. We don't need to go outright insulting people. You think some guy is slow and you can do the run better? Awesome. Prove it. Fight with your times, not your words. Bickering can go elsewhere. If you have anything to say, be constructive. If what are you going to say isn't nice, just shut up.
-4. Time Copyright and Right of Property (lolwut)
I'll explain. In the previous thread, someone compared unnecessarily two classes in their damage potential. That's NOT constructive(read above), and just silly. This also led to another user linking someone else's video to prove the first person's argument (and I repeat, pointlessly). Aside from the silly argument it afterwards led, the owner of the linked video got quite annoyed about his video being posted without his consent.
So let's go to the rule:
No one, without exceptions, will be allowed to post someone else's video. Everyone's in their right to do whatever they want with their work and property.
Only the owner the video, will be able to publish it here.
-5. Posting format
Because things might get messy. I obviously don't know everyone, and much less your IDs/character names (especially if they're written in kanji/hiragana/katakana).
So the posting format will be this:
Name of quest and amount of players//Boss (If you're posting multiple runs, put the info on each of them.)
Player ID - Character Name - Class/Subclass - Time (optional, I will check it anyways)
[Spoilerbox]Link of video // Link of image.[Spoilerbox]
For example...
Naberius II TA 1 Player // Vol Dragon
Kamekur - 茜泉 - Fi/Hu - 7:65
Spoiler!
Embedding your videos obviously works too.
Anything that's not posted within this format will NOT be posted. I believe it takes less effort for the poster than the OP (especially when there's multiple runs of multiple people) to do this.

-Log commentary file:
23/10/13: You might ask: Why are you managing this thread and not Shadowth117? And why are you literally copying the format of his thread?
-Well, this decision had been settled between him and me a month ago. I consider myself someone who enjoys TAs, and I constantly checked the old thread, excited to see new times posted, so, why not? It just happened, I took charge of it.
The reason I took his format to make the thread is because it is the one we all are used to already. It's also clear and concise, so why change it?
It definitely sounds better than outright saying that I was just lazy.
24/10/13: So, we have all fields now, but we didn't get SH TAs. Why? To have something to release (drip) this October - November? Oh well, guess we'll only be filling the boss section for a while. I also edited my post a bit, to fix engrish. Seriously, this kind of bullshit makes me feel that rushing to have this thread ready before the update was a waste of time.
