If you're referring to full game runs, Speedrun mode is functionally Advanced mode without the ability to change difficulties, so I figured it'd be best to allow difficulty to be changed in the Adventure/Quest modes and not segregate them.

If you're referencing ILs, w/ the exception of a handful of levels the difficulties don't make enough of a difference to justify a category split. Relaxed Mode already makes the current Checkpoint vs No Checkpoint split useless, and I'm considering removing the split there too.

Probably depends on what it got denied for the first time. Doubt you'll get in trouble unless you spam the request tho.

A lot of games are still limited to spreadsheets on discords or self-run webpages. Even the sequel to a high profile porn game that was previously allowed on the site.

I seriously don't know what to make of this thread anymore. Looks like bait at this point

I think its a DID thing where people refer to themselves as a collection of their identities, using plural pronouns (We/Us).

To be fair to Elo, the 13 year olds they're legally allowed to collect data on are REALLY into anime porn, which is why they advertise it.

Brave makes speedrun.com usable on mobile, because whoever signed off on the ads didn't think about people actually using the website.

Are you sure you're not looking for a cute mom? Could never hurt to have a spare mom.

It depends on the country for the legality of rom hacks, but sr.c doesn't host commercial game rom distribution so they're legally in the clear.

There's even an entire News section of the site that hasn't been used for anything important in months that would be great for this purpose.

While hunting for bugs/changes in video games is fun, its significantly less fun to do that on a website w/o knowledge anything has changed.

And generally a lot of the things you guys are asking for are extremely minor. Would following a person on the site be really cool? Absolutely. But wouldn't you rather the site be more functional and available for users and game moderators before we do cosmetic stuff that would be cool but is overall useless in actually keeping a database for speedruns?

I mean, "minor features that would be p cool but are useless in actually keeping a database for speedruns" basically defines everything the average end user would notice about the site's changes in the past 9 months (not counting the obvi negative changes). Things like being able to set pronouns, opening up donator perks to all, adding a barebones articles section, etc. aren't really at all required for a speedrunning database.

The mod tools were talked about in detail on the same news post that they started rolling out ads and replacing the stickied forums with the support hub, and there's not been an official site update since (unless you count news related to that banner I wish would go away).

I agree some people are too hard on elo, but at the same time, the ire is 100% earned.

Turbo aside, I'm not sure how significantly faster having all the buttons on one place makes you when compared to having the L/R buttons on your fingers.

On pc, it p much has no effect since keyboard controls give you the same input style by default. Obvi turbo would ban it in most communities.

It's arbitrary, but it also doesn't affect me so I don't have an opinion lmao.

That fixed the issue.

I assumed variables were required bc I did intend to separate categories by difficulty at one point, and trying to remove the default resulted in a pop up saying that they needed defaults. That's frustrating. Thanks for the help.

I don't quite know what you're asking there, @hahhah42hahhah42. Every variable is required to have a default.

Yep, all the variables are filled out on all the runs. Checked those initially, and just double checked them again. The only consistently empty field in the missing runs are the splits i/o links, which are also missing in runs that do show up on the board so I can't imagine that's relevant.

I verified 2 runs a couple of hours ago and they've yet to appear on the leaderboard, as well as a couple runs from WEEKS ago still not appearing.

I've checked every setting, every filter, tried rejecting and re-verifying runs, opened the page in an incognito browser, opened the page in another browser (FF to Chrome), checked on my phone browser, double checked each run to make sure I verified instead of rejected, changed the leaderboard to allow emulators (even tho they weren't submitted as emulator, and its a PC only game). The only thing I've not tried is resubmitting the runs, which given this issue persists w/ the runs I've recently verified, doesn't seem like it'd help.

Havent seen any of them since using adblock, tho occasionally a pesky banner will pop up and need to get blocked manually

Perfect
