He made an account, and on day one he announced he was going to be attempting WR in Super Mario Bros., and also posted in the Super Mario 64 forums about a brand new skip that was completely false. He later submitted a TAS (tool-assisted speedrun (basically a computer program running the game)) as a run for Super Mario Bros., and got super defensive when people pointed out he had submitted a fake run.
I'm sure there's more too, but those are the parts that I know of.
You can still jump across level 6 death plane (https://www.speedrun.com/robloxsr4/run/m79lopey example run).
Level 10 skip is a lot harder now, but is still possible ().
I think it's a little paranoid to assume that the dev intentionally created a bug just to spite a speedrunning community.
The weird required-reset-upon-spawn glitch has been a thing for a while now (I know for sure it was in the previous version as well). Just something you have to get lucky with I guess.
Obviously because you went through the hammers, cheater!
If you tell people about the rules I have broken I'll tell a mod (whose job it is to enforce rules) that you discovered I broke rules
Also, in response to your expertly crafted thread titled "You got that, ya shitty fool coolesto?", I'd like to express disappointment. I know that Roblox is targeted towards young children, and I know that young children play Roblox, but I had thought that members of a speedrun community for a Roblox game could at least abstain from ACTING like young children.
- Congrats. I'm not saying you still splice runs, I'm saying you have a spliced run on your profile.
- No, I didn't "hack" into your runs. You know that big obvious button that says "Show obsolete runs" when you look at someone's profile? Yeah. That. http://prntscr.com/ikn963
- There's no need to "express a mad feelings," since I'm not personally attacking you, just your illegitimate runs.
- I'm aware of that. Generally when people make apologies they take actions to right the wrong they have done, such as deleting cheated runs. It's not against the rules to point out faked runs.
- And in a month the run was not removed, thus my bringing it up.
- Disregarded.
In any case, it's not relevant anymore since all the times have been nuked.
Can I ask why a wipe is necessary, rather than doing a new category division like the pre-patch/post-patch division that we already have?
OEM SNES controller + USB adapter?
Gerbungis, I think that was a tad more ad hominem than it needed to be. Point 1 is fair, point two is irrelevant and semantic, the first half of point three is good but the second sentence was incredibly elitist and toxic.
The all-caps isn't really necessary, I'm stating only facts.
-
The run is spliced.
-
The run has been verified as a legitimate run.
These two things should not exist together.
I have discovered that one of EchoRoblox's runs (https://www.speedrun.com/robloxsr4/run/zq6ej91y) is spliced. There are three pieces of evidence I have of this.
-
On the transition between levels eight and nine, a frame where he has died in level nine is visible: https://prnt.sc/ijfmc4
-
On the transition between levels twelve and thirteen, the chat message saying "{Team} You are now on the 'Level 13' team." never appears.
-
On the transition between levels 14 and 15, two frames where he has died in level 15 are visible: https://prnt.sc/ijfn3w
While the run is obsolete, I still believe it should be retroactively rejected. It is (clearly) a non-legitimate time, and should not be present on the leaderboard as though it were.
Upgrade Complete is a fun little web game I've played for years. I'd recommend checking it out and playing through it at least once, it's fairly short.
