New timing rule and a magnificent coincidence

Poland

Today, @YtTanel has submitted an IL run, with matching result to the current leader @RevengeRacer . Because of this, I have decided to re-time both 1:06.32 results using frame-to-frame timing & verification with on-screen LiveSplit on YtTanels video. Pacific Drive White Sands-Time Attack Forward Leaderboard

The LiveSplit timing matches frame-to-frame timing. Frame-to-frame timing on the video without LiveSplit, results in an identical time (with +/- 0.02 margin of error).

This is incredible news, as I believe, it shows us that despite the IGT drifting from real-time, the drift it resembles is consistent across systems. Thus making the IGT a reliable decider in results placement on the leaderboard!

Through consultation with YtTanel, we have decided to add a rule, requesting new submissions to include a passively running LiveSplit timer on screen, to verify that game speed isn't tampered with. But the above described phenomenon makes this ruling obsolete, as the IGT should match the gameplay consistently.

So, the rule requesting inclusion of LiveSplit timer on-screen is being tagged as (Optional). But! In cases where results overlap again, like they did in todays case, results will be adjusted in favor of those with the LiveSplit timer
