Iowa, USA@EmeraldAly That's okay, I understand.
I guess if I had anything add to sum things up is that, in general all of us content mods try to work together where and when possible, at the same time not all of us are always on the same page which isn't a bad thing just means we'll talk about each others ideas and pick those off. All of us aren't doing this all the time, because that's just a bit crazy in my opinion (as I said I was tired of looking at games that day), we do like to do other things.
Most peoples problem is always the wait time, it really isn't that bad. Most of the time it is within 1-2 weeks and sometimes even less than that, it's been a long while since anyone had to wait longer than that. But still, the process for us is a little work and we just try our best to do what is best for the community and SRC as a whole and I understand when people don't understand and take things the wrong way. In my opinion, I think were doing pretty well and most people seem to be happy in the end which is what is important.
@EmeraldAly Also, Oh_DeeR's post isn't wrong. Right now for my case, we still have to move in a few things remaining and I've been busy with family members due to christmas so I haven't been able to focus on the queue personally, only doing a handful here and there when I have some time.
People just need to be patient and give us a chance, I think I said somewhere we always pull through for everyone 99% of the time. But I just think it isn't fair when people can't wait and we often feel like we get criticized over it.
When we say we get a lot of game requests, we do and its a hell of a lot more than 5 a week. Many are straight forward, many aren't, some get held back while others get dealt with to keep the queue going.
Late November I think I handled around 120+ games, it was a day before I had to pack and move so I decided to go through the entire thing myself. It took me around 12 hours (with some breaks inbetween all this) and by the time I reached the last 20 or less I was really tired of looking at the queue and exhausted from researching and determining what is acceptable with SRCs policy (or to be more clear with that, the game request guidelines page). I did this because I was moving and wanted everyone to have a break.
@CriscoWild Seems to be both sides, but to be fair this is a more universal annoyance that comes up too often.
The link I posted up above actually talks about this a bit.....and its something we've gone on repeat many times. Patience really is key.

Quite sure Liv and Oh_DeeR gave you the answer. Seems you ignored it.
Like you and among so many other annoying users, your submission has only been pending for a week. Take a hike and go speedrun until we can catch up, I can be passive aggressive too y'know. There's a reason why we generally don't bother with many of the threads here, this thread is another example of why.
I've said it countless times but it'll get dealt with once we reach that point, your game isn't the only one waiting. There's nothing more to it than that, there's tons of games submitted all the time. Patience is key.
A few reasons I can see pretty quickly; You keep calling it a "demo" in both the title and youtube description, you also did not specify the categories other than country regions(?) and as such felt like you were trying to sell the game as either a demo or IL. You may want to make the request much more clear and resubmit.
Yeah its not a bad idea at all, just how submissions are handled here doesn't work otherwise it's a good idea.
Yeah, it'll never be a linear queue its just not how it works. Some games just take longer than others, one game might take a few hours longer or something we might as well try to get through some other games at the same time. Know what I'm saying? I know people get impatient but they always get done, so this would be a worthless feature in my opinion.
It means to resubmit your request when the date is known. Looks like the game is just a demo on the game page for it with a "Fall: 2018" date on it so I would believe that this game should be coming out anytime and would be pointless to track this demo knowing this.
Would end up making every tracked time obsolete and not worth tracking.
@DankusSR It already is but because its a mobile type it doesn't appear by default though people can see it if they click on this; https://imgur.com/a/yJ2KfGq
I believe you can also change the settings manually in the series settings to show by default instead of hidden.

Rules use the standard Any% rules for Time Attack
- Collect all 4 keys and clear the course.
- Show the "Clear" screen with provided time.
- Times are tracked by IGT, when submitting your run please use the "Clear" screen time that is provided.
If there are any issues or questions post here. Once Wario has opened all 100 Chests, Time Attack mode is activated.
@Bregermann Took it off, thanks for the reminder.
Looking forward to it, most of the Wario runners are in the discord (WL1 is one of the least active but there are people who know much more about it than I do as I've only ever touched glitchless for the game awhile back) so if you ever need information or advise, people there can help.
I still apologize for the lack of platforms, but its nice someone caught it now instead of possibility never since even I didn't realize it.
Because people are lazy (I'm joking).
I manually added them just now. SGB is the only one not listed because of timing issues with it and converting the times are a pain, though a regular mod can add it if they really wish to but I don't believe anyone has timed it, so that prevents that issue with people submitting under that platform tag. (SGB2 is added since it fixes that issue).
GBC is listed because of its backwards compatibility so I would assume people just felt it might as well had been GB as well, I don't think GB games take advantage of the GBC hardware. I could be wrong but since its still official support by Nintendo, its acceptable to still track it. Also Gameboy Pocket is the same as the Gameboy, it's simply redesigned.
Now as to why they weren't ever actually added, I think no one really honestly thought about it. I looked at the auditlog but since it was so long ago when the board was setup those auditlogs are lost so its possible that if the board was made a very long time ago, those platforms may not had been an option quiet yet and by the time they were added, no one considered it.
But generally, if the game can be officially (Keyword here is officially, 3rd party hardware is not counted) played on another console/handheld/VC then a platform for it gets added unless there is some reason its kept off like SGB1s case.
Also, just putting this out here but we (being SRC staff) will not accept a category extension board for Deltarune right now until the full game comes to fruition. It would end up making that board entirely pointless, rendering every single run worthless to be tracked. Basically though category extension boards is for all the memey-like stuff that just doesn't work as a misc category under the main board itself.
Currently, this game alone has over 100 worth of runs which will have to be moved when the game comes out. I could only assume the nightmare a category extension board would be at this time.
Only site staff can add games to a series, I've gone ahead and applied it. @Silo_Simon
When release is here, please let me know so I can remove the "Prerelease" tag. Prerelease tag are given to demos / early released games (set before their release date) as I had seen in another submission that beta keys were being given out so I applied it where necessary.
When you resubmit, use the additional notes talking about all the differences. The game is kinda obscure and doesn't really seem to list the differences between the both versions, depending how great it is we'll move it along and get it approved but if they aren't enough they could easily be merged with the web version of the game.
