I just saw this lol. Good luck Moses. Let me know if you need and tips; we have a Nidhogg 1 and 2 discord here: https://discord.gg/8Cp65ueheS
Unfortunately, this video is too choppy to be accepted, especially in the later parts of the run. We must also be able to see the final time screen in the run itself to be accepted.
I like your safer strat on the sewer stage - deflecting arrows with your saber. Smart!
Everyone's welcome:
You did really well on the final four enemies. Hope to see more runs from you :)
Hello, I've tried this strat years ago, but it's actually slightly slower. Even did some test runs now to reconfirm.
Still can be used to avoid two screens of enemies if a runner opted for that, so the strat does have its viability. But when experienced enough with gauging distance and lunging accurately, its faster to just kill them.
@kirkq Here's the original thread that has plenty of more details to the situation.
https://www.speedrun.com/Speedrunning/thread/7e9lt
Here's a summation of most of the critical events:
-My runs were rejected because there were dropped frames, which I agreed with him doing so. This notification came 2 years after I submitted my runs. No big deal. -He starts messaging the other Nidhogg speedrunner on his YouTube channel calling me shady and a cheater. -He has no proof or has confronted me on why my runs had frame issues, nor did he care. -I had an awful laptop back in the day, where I couldn't record without dropping frames. When I beat my records offline in full frames and they're posted on the Nidhogg leaderboards, people still think I'm cheating. It's a lose-lose situation for me. -Since then I have bought a new PC that is more capable of handling a steady framerate while recording. -A week later, I pickup the game after a few years and reclaim my world record spot. -He verifies it. Then I tell him to not call me a cheater. He starts arguing with me. He even said he wanted proof that it was my recording software causing the frame drops. Lol and how am I supposed to do that? -Basically, it came down to him just blatantly admitting he had no respect for me and still thinks of me as a cheater. Not very professional of a moderator to say, and way out of line. Especially with no proof. I do not appreciate my name being dragged through the mud on baseless accusations. -He has also threatened to remove all of my runs (abusing his mod privileges) because he's convinced I "cheated" (no proof). -I mention I broke the record using a broken controller, he then comments on the video submission itself that I have no proof I use a broken controller. Um what? Your job is to verify the speedrun, not the hardware I'm using. -I resubmit the video, calling him out for editing the video description and abusing his mod privileges. He refuses to reverify the run. -He passes the baton to Sutiibu to verify my run again (even though it's the same video he has verified before) and goes out of town or something.
That's meat of the situation. If a moderator is going to be disrespectful like that, then they don't deserve their privileges. I, as well as others, agree that NovaTitan should not be a moderator, as he has demonstrated his unprofessionalism and clear emotional bias under no rational basis.
If he wants to try and discredit my name and my work, then I will seek justice and let everyone know just who he is and what he's done, whilst clearing my name. I would not want him to ever behave the same to any other legitimate speedrunner. He should have his moderator status revoked.
Just a quick update:
- My run has not been reapproved.
- Sutiibu (the other Nidhogg mod) has not responded to my twitter message or reapproved my run despite them being active.
- I have posted in the moderator thread regarding the moderator dilemma, and have yet to receive any type of response thus far.
That's all for now.
He's only trying to victimize himself which won't work. All I'm doing is helping him with his introduction. After all, if he wants to introduce himself, then people should be given the full memo.
Nova, you absolutely chose one of the worst people to disrespect, and I will make sure you know it and expose you any and all chances I get. Cheers :)
To show who you are? We have enough screenshots of you showing just exactly who you are. kthxbye
This is mainly directed towards the Moderators on this thread. @Gyoo @kirkq
There's a moderator (NovaTitan) who has deliberately gone out of his way to mislabel me as a shady cheater that he has no respect for when he has already been proven wrong. He is completely unfit to be a moderator here. Here's just one example of his immaturity:

Please visit the original thread to get the full picture of how the events unfolded. I, as well as others, hope that the he is dealt with appropriately.
People have judged for themselves. They don't like you. They don't think you're qualified. They don't want you to judge their speedruns. And they absolutely do not want you to be a moderator here.
- I never said you rejected my most recent run.
- The image does nothing to address or disprove the controversies and allegations you've made.
- You conveniently left out why I resubmitted it, which is because you personally edited my run description stating I needed proof I used a broken controller while speedrunning the game. So then I resubmitted another description with the same run, calling you out for it. Ahaha!

You should link Sutiibu to this thread!

If you enjoy learning systems, then learn how to be a decent human being. To have respect, you should also give it, and admit when you are wrong and apologize. Instead, you're an unprofessional, childish moderator that accuses Speedrunners of cheating when they are not, and have proven so. No one wants you moderating their runs.
