Hi there. So it probably won't surprise some of you about what happened with the previous WR run. The user no longer is on SRC due to an account ban from several situations of cheating in other games they ran. warm_ham and I were taking our time to research their upload to the leaderboards to see what we can learn in hopes to prevent it from ever happening again. The suspicions became clear after the runner attempted to claim a sub 4 in EarthBound Any% Glitchless on their first attempt. Being part of the EB discord and having run it, I knew this was suspicious and so did everyone else in the community. UltimoIce (who originally was the one who started reaching out to communities and is a close friend of mine) asked me about them since they had a run in our leaderboards. Once I started looking closer, there were signs immediately pointing to suspicion, such as this being the only attempt he has uploaded to the leaderboards, as well as it being the only video of a finished run (was running against a 19:01 which doesn't exist anywhere). We then had to be professional in our stance where while we don't support a cheater to be on the leaderboards, we needed enough proof. After obtaining the video and audio, we will have all the time to see what exactly happened. Outside of that, SRC handled it from all the reports they were given.

kinda bummed about the whole sitch, since crewds was a big rolemodel to me, but it kinda sucks he was a cheater h
