Should there be any adjustments to the scoreboard? Levels, types of scores, etc?

is it something that's a goal within the level?

no... i just realized that's a bad idea...
because i don't think you can view your fastest time unless you save it as an island...

another addition might be the highest number of points for each score board in the ranker...

what do you mean? highest number pf points for each scoreboard in the ranker?

nvm...
the scoreboard is on the prince's island next to the slingshot...
it tells you the hottest, coldest, largest, loudest, softest etc. katamari's you have rolled.
it then gives you are rank, S(the highest), a,b etc.
it isn't necesarily the corresponding animal friend that will give you the highest score, though...
each animal has a specific type of item that yields maximum points...
the cockroach wants loud things, the elephant wants large things, the king statue wants grand things etc...
so anyway if you have no idea what i'm trying to explain, then i will take pictures of the scoreboard tomorrow....

But then the scoreboard would be absolutely massive if vix added all those categories under the rankings. There are waaay too many, imho, for that to be dealt with properly and convienantly. Not to downplay your idea or anything...I dunno, I would personally like a speed section for each level, but as yoda said, the speeds are not recorded unless you make an island for it. Not like I can really contribute much in scores (size *or* speed) as of the moment anyway, I suck at M&MK. :heh

maybe changing or adding a scoreboard for the camel stage in dollars?
this would confuse me a lot less...
when i first was comparing my scores to the scoreboard, i thought i reaaaaaally sucked...
that camel stage is pretty fun though...

At first when I was playing Camel and only reaching about 1.5 meters, I thought I was doing really well :P because the number of yen looked so high.

I don't have a good answer to what should be done about the dollars and yen.

Just wondering, does anybody think there is anything from that funny scoreboard on the island that should be added? Maybe just one or two things from the first page of the scoreboard? I don't have a strong opinion on this.

I'll add in a section for dollars for those that has the US version and a section for yen for those that still have the Japanese version.

maybe we can put the names of the animals from the english version so it's easier for people to understand and also maybe we can make a separate scoreboard entirely for the rankers i mentioned earlier...

No new scoreboards yet. First gotta establish the main part of the game.

What are the levels called in the US version? Just saying that there's a difference doesn't help me, an example would be nice or a full list...:poke :)

yea those controls were pretty hard to learn- so different from analog sticks!
but once you get the hang of it, it's even more fun!!!
