Glamorganshire, WalesI chose to do my last history coursework on the Northern Ireland conflict... it was gruelling, but I'd like to imagine I have some understanding of the problem, and I agree with @Alowishus89 I agree with Shiken to an extent too, although sadly Elo rarely if ever takes note of small improvements to the site. It is however possible to select yourself as having no location if you strongly disassociate with the flag. I secondarily feel that adding a small cluster of further flags to identify with may spark unnecessary conflicts between runners about the relevant and different symbolism of each banner, whereas as disappointing as the unionist flag is, it may be useful just as a flag to distinguish the place the runner chooses to identify with having come from. And I'd finish with saying that no flag for a country is worse than one, despite the fact that the flag has a certain historical symbolism to it, that flaw is shared by many flags from different countries in the world.
Problem extends beyond Northern Ireland and it would be quite the task to fix them all.
I'd agree and also dearly hope the site staff handle each case with enough attention to work out that someone who is clearly gunning for a mod role doesn't have a mod team removed for missing a blanket deadline. I know in the back of my mind star must though because surely many handfuls of people have submitted frivolous support tickets for Minecraft moderation troubles lol
And if it makes you feel happier, I've had runners threaten me after 2 days with all kinds in the same line as support hub removal DatFace
Using the speedrun.bot, I was shown 97 pages of runs, it's a game with FOUR active runners at the moment and many have been pending since last year. Shambolic
If Cult of the Lamb has it's own autosplitter/load remover for the game, it's likely better to ask in their forums or Discord for support.
Just general tips to get autosplitters working though is to add the splitter from the 'Other' section of the layout, then make sure your timer is using In-Game time, from 'Compare Against' as well, as that's a usual prerequisite for them, check the splitter doesn't have any blank customisation options in addition, by the way, all of that is available with the plus button in 'Edit Layout'.
I've from time to time been really invested in ongoing glitch-hunts or strategy discussions and I'd love to hear everyone's best out of context snippets from discussions like that.
My entry, not written by me, from a routing discussion, is this: "Using the double gravy race glitch meerkat found before you start the cutscene usually softlocks you, but if you are playing the toaster minigame at the same time you can regain control."
Looks like a really interesting tournament + game, I've stopped by just for the moment to say both the discord invite links have expired ;)
You can DM @starsmiley on the website if you're pretty sure the request was denied for a reason that can be explained and not a fundamental problem with the game
I personally have lived in Wales and prefer it to England, hence cool flag ;)
well, it seems to me that OrangePeeling, the original super, was banned and prior to being banned they added a massive unnecessary amount of verifiers. Now that Slothboy is on the leaderboard, they're making an effort to clear that up.
Just separate from the specifics here, removing mods without mentioning anything to them is unacceptable unless it's an emergency with compromised accounts or griefing etc... But on the flip side, there's no reason he isn't allowed to do that unless it's found to be bad moderation practice that warrants his removal from the board. Try and resolve the problem with him directly ;)
It's a weird one. The platform is definitely recognised by the site but it's held as a sort of sub-platform to the predecessor console by default, for some reason, so if you press the plus icon beside the platforms on a game page, it may reveal additional platforms if the mods have specified that submissions are valid on them. So don't worry, the platforms are definitely valid for speedrunning
The best bet is just to ask the game moderators if the Xbox Series X/S is accepted for submissions, in all my experiences with modern console games thus far that's never been a problem, especially when an Xbox One game is ported over, but there might actually be platform differences which warrant a different category for it. If there isn't one and Xbox One is listed, and it's available on the X/S, I'd just poke the game moderator(s) to check. It'll depend game to game :)
please use the game's specific forums rather than site forums to make game-specific requests In any case, usually, you'd want to message a moderator if the run's been pending for a substantial amount of time, over 2 weeks on low-activity boards I'd understand.

its the 500th post, reporting a bitcoin advertisement. whammer
Hope the final developments go well! There's no rule against making new threads in the forums to advertise your games but they're frowned upon a bit outside of the Advertisement thread, I'd just post it there. You are also much more likely to get a leaderboard accepted onto the site once the game has been fully released and there's evidence of you/others doing a speedrun of it and an info page. Most games that are accepted before full release are anticipated to be requested by lots of people or part of big series, and it will likely be rejected before full release.
