Yesterday or the day before yesterday, the last verified run was 4 March 2021

Now the last verified run is TopalMuharrem's 4+ hours run from March 10, which was checked the very next day

I submitted 2 short IL runs of 2.5 minutes each on March 6 (today is March 13), and they are still not verified

I understand that some moderators may be busy, but we have the whole 6 moderators, of which only 2 didn't appear on speedrun.com during the last week (DiskoSpider and 123robot). At the time of publication of this post:

P.S. No offence, sorry for this little reminder

congrats, your runs are now last in verification priority, hope that's a lesson never to ask to verify your runs :)

Thanks for such a professional approach

I think the point Tier4Jean is trying to make is that sometimes "run X" is submitted days or weeks before "run Y", but "run Y" is verified days or sometimes weeks before "run X".

I think it's a reasonable request to have the runs verified more or less in order of submission date/time, which is not the case at the moment. Obviously there can be exceptions to this general rule of thumb (if there are questions about the run or new tricks that aren't fully understood by the moderators yet), but generally speaking this should be the logical order in which runs get verified.

We verify runs in the order we get around to, that's it. I don't see how complaining about verification times is going to help anything.

Your ILs also include a suggestion for a timing change for race ILs, so we've been discussing those as well.

Hi Hoxi, my 1st post in this thread was not so much a complaint, as an attempt to draw attention to the fact that there were no verified runs for a whole week. And I tried to speak very politely, like "hello mods, what happened, you forgot about verifications of runs?"

About changing the timings in IL races (from outdated and too inaccurate IGT to RTA) - I indicated this for Very Important Reasons. I did serious significant detailed work precisely on IL races timings - with LOTS of data, numbers, comparisons, analytics, arguments, etc.

If GTA SA mods and runners are ready to explore data and results of this work, then I will publish it in a separate thread

Runners such as Topal have been running the full game for so long that their submissions can be checked almost instantly, as there's a good chance the run has already been seen by a mod (on Twitch/YT). ILs have always been low priority because most don't take them seriously.

Complaining about your runs not being verified isn't polite and it doesn't help anyone. The time the mods have taken to address this nonsense could have been time spent verifying runs. You spend more than enough time on this site (even resorting to stalking moderators apparently) to know that the acceptable waiting period is 3 weeks, the mods don't owe you anything more.

I'm a corrupt and inactive mod! Let's go!

this thread is golden

In all seriousness, I won't speak on behalf of other mods but personally I recognize that I could definitely be doing better and putting more time into checking things and I will try to work on it. Having said that, it might be a bit more mature in the future to try to handle your problems without putting people on blast. DMs are open.

GTA SA mods - thank you for finally switching IL Races' timings from outdated and too inaccurate IGT to RTA, and thanks for verification of my runs as well

If tone of my first message in this thread seemed defiant and offensive - I apologize for that

By the way, now in SF to LV leaderboard ( speedrun.com/gtasa/SF_to_LV ), some players have wrong places. I used VSDC Free Video Editor to measure the timings of the fastest runners, and also downloaded relevant videos in best available resolutions. Here the results of my measurements:

2. aroszparo 2:26 IGT 0:12.317 - GO! 02:39.717 - final checkpoint 02:39.717 - 12.317 = 2:27.400

3. Blantas 2:28 IGT 02.787 - GO! 02:32.269 - final checkpoint 02:32.269 - 02.787 = 2:29.482

4. darkgeorge12 2:28 IGT 05.020 - GO! 02:34.620 - final checkpoint 02:34.620 - 05.020 = 2:29.600

5. Rider_Blade 2:28 IGT 02.617 - GO! 02:32.217 - final checkpoint 02:32.217 - 2.617 = 2:29.600

6. Harps 2:27 IGT 05.117 - GO! 02:33.684 - final checkpoint 02:33.684 - 05.117 = 2:28.567

7. oPxrcy "2:27" IGT 0:14.242 - GO! 02:43.692 - final checkpoint 02:43.692 - 0:14.242 = 2:29.450

So correct positions of runners and their timings should be as follows:

1. Tier4Jean - 2:27.320 (not .230)
2. aroszparo - 2:27.400
3. Harps - 2:28.567
4. oPxrcy - 2:29.450
5. Blantas - 2:29.482 6-7. darkgeorge12 and Rider_Blade - 2:29.600

please go get some sunlight my guy

speedrunner blames other speedrunner for putting effort in speedrunning

sure dude

Man, if you can write your posts, while everybody else is getting sunlight and blaming you - you straight homie

What?
