Hey all, I've been doing runs for a while, and I've almost always had other music playing in the background of my runs (but always making sure game audio was there). All of my runs have been verified, except one who said that because I had other audio, it would be accepted but labeled as unverified. Am I allowed to have music playing in the background during runs? Thanks!

P.S. If not, I'm sure I can find a way to only record the game audio and video in a seperate instance of OBS while streaming to ensure that game audio and video is clear.

as long as you can clearly hear the in-game sound as well, this should be fine. and if you find a way to only record the game audio (which should not be too hard with obs) - even better!

the reality of the situation is that we dont have an agreed way of dealing with these runs, so its up to each indidvidual moderator to decide what they want to do with music runs. some may be more forgiving and just accept like normal, others like myself will mark them as 'verified:no', but it will still be on the leaderboard and on your profile, its just a way for us to put an asterisk on it. if you want to be completely safe then record a seperate version with no music over it
