So they use the same mode. This run uses a better character. And also uses a faster setting. Obsoleting...

Sorry guys. I forgot to consider the option of obsoleting the Arcade Mode run with this one. Any thoughts?

Added encode. Despite of being unoptimized for time, it suddenly looks surprisingly good entertainment wise! Voted Yes.

Right, for Arcade games, every engine is a separate driver, and not all of them have savestates implemented (as there are TOO many different drivers). So it either somehow works in a glitched way, or doesn't work at all. MAME, for one, tells you savestates aren't implemented for a given game, if so.

Captain obvious comming! :D
It's topic about "Vault Tier", and main question is: "Should we keep the Vault as it is?"
You're talking about borderline cases. It's offtopic :D. So I can simple ignore you. lol
Are you sure that having problems with the current Vault system is offtopic for a Vault system thread? Are you sure that answering "Do something else" and posting it (and its reasons, that some people think I fail to give) in the thread is offtopic? Alright, ignore me right away. Geez.

You're using the 22-pixel boost from the very first room, right?

Also, "stars, moons, vault" tiers purpose is reflection of community feedback and support. I would call it raiting. So, in other words, it reflecting rating of TAS run. In "NO TIERS" system this information is ommited, same situation in "any%/100% and side goals" tiers system. But yes, you can always check raiting in "rating" section and in discussion topic.
Idea to change "stars, moons, vault" into "any%/100% and side goals" looks for me like removing feedback and support reflection with simple reason: borderline cases.
I do not see how it is omitted or removed. People still vote and rate. Probably you mean that not dividing the runs (into 3 groups) by entertainment value is bad. Maybe it is. But if done, it should not be a hardcoded cutoff. As I kept saying, I maybe want to see only all runs above 5. Or only those above 7. I can't, I'm forced to use a special link, because it was "decided" to divide them right there (only).

My vote in this poll is: "Keep the Vault tier but change its appearance (name/icon/etc)" What exactly? Remove vault icon, and name. Let vault movie looks like normal one without "moons" or "stars".
Sounds sane.

I'll remind my personal reason to participate in this discussion: I don't want to feel "uneasy" or "excusing" for accepting to "wrong" tiers. Seeing all the flame, turska certainly felt so, even if he was 100% right with the decision. That's the point! There is no "wrong" decision in undefined area. "Right" is only the decision that the time has proven to be correct. It's a lottery, you can never be sure. I'm incapable of guessing (and then pretending I'm doing it all right). This is why I do think we need a change. Because right now, no one can define the behavior. Want to pretend we are alright (until we are on that area)? Good. I don't. It's like "Sorry, if you press that button, my program can burn your computer (and your dog). I couldn't figure out how to set it all up, so I just left it in and added a caution." I mean, yeah, most of the free coders do that, but we are not just free coders. We are goddamn perfectionists. We are overcoming expectations here, with just some mind work. This is yet another puzzle.

To answer your question directly: I'm not offering anything. But that's the point: nobody is. Everybody is asking. All I'm asking is some patience. The TASing community is a slow moving community, pretty much by definition. Give the vault some more time.
And then what? How will you personally detect that the "actual time" for changes has come? And how much our actions will change?

feos, I don't see any productivity in what you're suggesting either. From my perspective, you're asking (telling) people to put in a lot of effort into changing the system, without any good arguments as to why. The only reason you give for anything you say is "because it minimizes subjectivity", but you completely fail to explain why that is a good thing. Why do we need less subjectivity?
Oh please. I'm sick of your ignorance.

Alright, what do we have for now.
Forgot that the old poll question will start working again! If any%/100%, yes vote to "should it be published" means "yes, I like its optimization level" (all the rest just won't matter). If side goal, yes vote means "I like how entertaining it is (and optimized)". For borderline cases (subset of side goal runs), yes still means "I like it enough".
Sounds a bit weird, but lets people vote about various things, and still have it fit, since we won't be judging subjectivity (in most cases).
So again, why do we need that change? Because it minimizes subjectivity.

It's because it's not part of the "Publication Work". Any ideas how to link it better?

Alright, Scepheo, what are you going to offer to all of those who actually want the specific change now? "You make no sense, live with the current system"? "There are too few of you, go get some more supporters"? It is always that way that whoever doesn't care enough to post just throws in a vote and forgets. And the ones who post rise real points. Because they care enough to do it. I don't see much (any) productivity in your suggestions (if there are any).

Gender note serves a simple practical purpose: letting people know how to address you. We do not (ever?) address anyone here as "they", simple because who wants to be addressed as "not he" is never known about, until "they" states that. A gender note/sign lets to not state it explicitly every time, until people remember :D

Polls give stupid statistics, posts give smart statistics (and can be helpful).
About subjectivity: let's reduce the annoyance and not massively rely on subjectivity, as the whole thing that relies on that becomes only partially legit. The best option is to leave subjectivity to the user. Say, if I don't want to see some option, let me hide it. If there are some movies that are implied to look really bad, a personal cutoff by rating is the way to go. Because as I said, one wants to control things that are subjective on his own.

Warp: the current way to do things won't change. It will still be "fastest possible!!!11 goes to any%, any entertainment tweaks that cost time go to side goals". But again, it doesn't mean we will make branch names depend on that, just because it'd mess everything up, since branches are way more complicated that it was believed some time ago.

No, it's you a-okay with how a run loses 1 minute of the game finishing by itself.
Also, why do you love absurd so much? You have a thread about that matter, where opinions exactly halved, and you are defending your personal preference with indicting me for bias, ignorance or something else?

Well enjoy seeing the words "accepting to vault" without writing anything else for this game and judging between ingame for fighters vs TAS time for TASing.
Why so butthurt? The "ingame for fighters" issue is completely new to me. Was there a thread about how it's preferred? Maybe some guideline I'm stupidly missing?
I just want to remind, that leaving the ending type to the author's choice is a guideline, since both options are equally preferred.
