when I see a mod sumbit a sm64 speedrun I see that most of the time they are also the one to verify the time since there mod this means a mod could submit a fake time and verify it I do not think a mod should be able to verify his own run

your right it will not be fair

People are also only made mods because they are well-cemented and trusted in the community.

true

where have you seen this? i can only think of maybe one instance in the year or more that i've been a mod where i've seen that happen. and when it did, we went through and re-verified it anyway. link to where this has happened at all recently

we don't verify our own runs, if we upload someone else's run the same mod will submit and verify it.

ok thanks for the info
