As the leaderboard is getting larger I'd like to propose the requirement for video evidence to be extended beyond the top 10.

Speedrun.com is a fairly modern site, technology has moved on significantly in the last couple of years and it is now easier and cheaper than ever to record and share your runs.

Many of the other games on speedrun.com require video evidence for all submissions. I'm a moderator for the Mario Kart Arcade series and such is the case for that.

I'm certainly not suggesting users are lying about their runs but it is frustrating when you get a new user's time drop in front of yours that has no evidence or even comments. It is good for whole community to be able to see each others runs, be inspired and look for areas they can improve on within their own runs.

The frustration is compounded, when in the past I've personally had several seconds added to my RTA on runs by certain mods just because they didn't see the menu due to the video starting as soon as the cup has been selected. I may as well have not bothered going to the effort of uploading a video!

This raises another point about RTA which may warrant another thread, but here you go. What is the point? As Skull64 phrased it when I was discussing it with him a couple of weeks ago, "when you have such a godly timer that comes with MKDD" which is not the case with many other games people speed run. The answer is of course that you need to make sure the user is not pausing and taking breaks during a run, after all these are "Speedruns". But hang on, if video evidence is not required then you can't check that anyway beyond the top 10. Having video evidence extended or for all would mean "no breaks" can be verified, yes it might be a bit more work for the mods, but you can easily recruit a few more mods from the active community to help out.

IGT being priority (with accuracy to the 1000th of a second) would also vastly reduce the amount players tied for places or even in the wrong order as it is at the very least 1000 times more accurate than humans trying to time the RTA themselves to the closest second and everyone can mash through the menus as good as one other anyway, that's hardly the skills we're trying to exhibit here.
