if the mods have been inactive on the site then contact them on their socials and if they dont respond then write a support hub request to take over it as a mod. now note if the game is popular like minecraft or something youll just need to be patient as they get a lot of submissions |

the choises dont make enough difference to compete against someone (at least in a fun way). like i said previously youll hold skip and have your mouse where the next right option will be and when that option comes up you spam click to hit it as early as possible so the only way you can be faster than someone is if they clicked a tad slower than you did. but on one choice button the difference between two "top level" runners wouldnt be more than like 0.2 or something per choice and lets say the game has 10 choice parts so thatll be 2 seconds of time difference and the whole speedrun is just who can click 10 times the fastest with cutscenes in between. of course like you said there may be glitches you can abuse and to that like merl said you need to explain those glitches in your game submission. at least i assume the people looking over the games will just quickly skim through the included video if its a VN since the chance of it being more than "hold skip" is low. that text was a mess but hopefully youll be able to understand at least some of it |

hmm yeah im not even sure if to call it speedrunning if you just hold the skip button and see as the game finishes it self. you cant really compare how fast someone was at holding a button than someone else |

im genuinely curious to know how you think that those kinds of vns are "good speedgames"? i havent played all too many vns but the few i have played all had a skip button which you hold down and then at a speed you chose in the settings it would clear text so wouldnt that literally be all you do? alogn with holding your cursor where the next correct option will be and spam click to move on as fast as you can. |

you can always just have leaderboards in google sheets too. annoying to update and hard to find but at least you can keep track of peoples times |

you can always try to submit your game. nowadays games get accepted way easier (i mean they fucking accepted multiple different chess games after elo took over) but yeah visual novels will have a hard time being accepted due to the runs mostly consisting of you holding the skip button to go through the (normally) hours long text and the actual gameplay is just really simple |

(in code just doing "if (X)" is enough no need to specify "== true" and then "if (!X)" to check if false >:D) |

Forum: Speedrunning Thread: Good run, great run Started by: CyrilTheOwlCyrilTheOwl |
yeah even though we have leaderboards speedrunning isnt a competition so comparing to others isnt always the best idea. rivalries are great though as they motivates both runners to run more |

Forum: Speedrunning Thread: Am I allowed to rebind keys? Started by: admiroooadmirooo |
usually i think you can rebind all you want as long as you dont give yourself extra buttons to do inputs (example two shoot buttons) but you should always do what bacon said and ask the mods of said board |

Forum: Speedrunning Thread: 2-Player Speedruns? Started by: RlySkizRlySkiz |
not really what you asked for but: you could also try to do 2p1c (2 players 1 controller) runs. dont think that many boards have it as a category but that doesnt mean you cant do it:D and mods may add it as a category if you run it |
