Hi could you add me as a mod to speedrun.com/rcrevenge I just submitted a run, and I haven't had a reply from the only 'active' mod. 2 of the mods are completely inactive and non of the mods run the game.

I'd also like to change the layout of the page too, which hasn't been changed in a year.

SP is by far the best option.

When you're at or under ~21% HP, or in "red bar" the game skips jingles and Pokémon cries, which causes the level up text box to appear super fast.

pretty sure VR release would be allowed. But it's the slowest version so you may as well run on emulator (or on gameboy player ect if you have it.)

This is a hard question to answer (Can't say any specific amount of RNG since every fight could lose you time because of gen 1 misses ect)

However the main parts of the run where you can lose time or die due to RNG are:

• Mt moon encounters
• Misty fight
• Cans
• Gyarados crit (x2 if going for silph red bar)
• Agatha and Lance can both screw you over

Compared with other pokemon games Red glitchless has few places where you can die, and most deaths don't cost much. Gyarados crit is the only thing that you really need to worry about, unless you are going for a really good time.

When is it too late to speedrun anything??? I mean the WR is very good at this point but why be put off running a game because you can't 'get WR'. (I assume this is what you meant by your comment)

Also the pokemon community still has loads of great active runners unlike other games, so it's definitely not "too late" to be a part of this community. 'most' people speedrun because they find it fun, that's why I ran Red because I loved the game as a kid. If you speedrun only with the intention of getting WR you will not enjoy it as much.
