hi there! i'm not new to the speedrun community, but very new to forum culture, and not really part of any communities. i've been speedrunning various games over the last 3 years making this one of my main hobbies!

i decided to put this up because why not, and to look back in a year or two to see if i've come anywhere near my goals as i'm currently a little sloppy/all over the place with my games and times.

my plan was to submit average runs to the leaderboards so i can keep track of what i run/want to run, and then when i'm ready grind down the times one at a time. this may seem odd or stupid but the reason i do this is when i run a speedgame, i think about all the others i plan to run and it's very overwhelming.

having all these bad times in a ton of games has lead me to giving myself the small title of 'variety speedrunner' to make myself feel better i guess. i learn more than one game at a time for things like multi-mario and compilation games.

i won't get into specifics about my goals, but let me know what you think about the way i speedrun! thanks for reading :]

Hello! In my perspective, as long as you enjoy it, then it's a fine thing to see. Being a variety speedrunner (i'm also speedrunning a lot of games!) itself, brings a new ways of enjoying a speedrun in a sense of it. For me myself, i speedrun a lot of games mostly due to how i "experience" the game casually, thus bringing the speedrun aspect to it gives the games itself a new way of enjoyment.

Also, hope you're having a good time speedrunning those games! :)
