I need a specific reason the lobby screen is needed to verify a run, because in looking over the footage of my run found here: you can see I show the end screen of the same game immediately after the run completed. If there is any question to whether the footage is legitimate when it comes to the issue of "is it a KYF match or an actual online qued match" you can see in the end game footage I took a sacrificial cake as an offering.

You cannot take a sacrificial cake as an offering in KYF mode (or any offering that affects blood point earnings for that matter), so this proves the footage is from the only other game mode available, (the online randomly que'd normal gameplay). So therefore the footage should be accepted as a legitimate run, unless there is some other evidence that is needed or some other question of legitimacy that needs to be answered, and if there is a question of legitimacy, we need to know what the questions are so the proof in whatever form it takes, can be given with full transparency. (Not to mention KYF doesn't offer blood points to my knowledge either, and you can see I gained bloodpoints after the match too..)

I also want to ask why it is the only moderators accepting or declining runs are moderators that themselves hold records. Is it not possible to have moderators who simply own and understand the game but don't compete be the ones to accept or decline the entries? It seems suspicious to me that the only mods are record holders themselves. Now, they very well may be acting legit and simply have preformed an oversight, but it seems necessary to me that there should be some oversight by a non-record holding moderator (perhaps of another game on speedrun.com) simply to remove any possibility of a moderator (or several) rejecting runs to make their own leaderboard status seem better than it might actually be. It is entirely possible that is not the case here, but there is the possibility it is the case here and I feel there should be something done to remove that possibility moving forward, and I think anyone who believes in fairness would agree.

I hope you feel I've acted fairly in approaching this, and understand I'm not accusing someone of cheating on the leaderboards, I am merely pointing out the possibility of it and asking that the possibility be removed. I would gladly discuss this in messages with the moderators but the site requires 7 days of membership before you can message others (which is way too long, a day is adequate, 2 is pushing it but acceptable... a week is insane.) so I'm left with only this post as an alternative. Sorry if I have offended anyone, but having to resubmit my run several times only to get 2 lines of text as a response without much detail is a bit infuriating. (And that might not be the mods fault either, it could be a character limit or something imposed by the site, which again is seemingly the site's restrictions causing issues like the 7 days no messages thing.) I do appreciate that the mods have gotten answers back quickly (in 1 days time rather than 1-3 weeks like the site tells you upon submitting a run) but I want more to go off of then things like "we need to see the lobby" I need to know /why/ do you need to see the lobby screen. What information/proof are you looking for, is it for proof it isn't a KYF game? Then there can be evidence in the end screen where it shows scoring and such if it is or isn't a KYF match. Is it to prove something else? If so what? Tell me so I can offer something other than what I don't have to prove the legitimacy of the run ya know?
