i am into accessibility and game design. i go by sysopod on other platforms as well



the CURSE OF RAMONA (COR) update has made some big changes to SNAKE FARM, most notably the free reroll and the change in cost/reward ratios for certain snakes. as a result, it's very likely the pre-COR records will quickly be left in the dust (example: just finished a run that shaved off like 30 seconds). do we want to keep a category for pre-COR SNAKE FARM runs, or just allow the pre-COR runs to be obsoleted?

in reply to @silasoftrees's post:

It might be worth having a note somewhere saying "this is when this patch happened," but I'm willing to keep the leaderboards rolling with current content. Wouldn't be the first game to get faster with updates, yanno?

FWIW IIRC speedrun.com keeps a listing of all the speedruns on its leaderboards even if they get beaten by the same person, so we don't have to worry about losing the legacy of times.

yeah it definitely does, i was mainly thinking of leaving the legacy runs as an option for people who wanted to run the game with the rolled back version or something along those lines- doesn't seem like a concern for anyone, so i think we'll just let them get obsoleted. if someone figures out some glitch trick that only works in pre-COR and therefore wants to run a pre-COR category, they can message me haha
