How the hell is this a thing? Fake time? https://www.cyberscore.me.uk/chart/165263
I'm just curious as to what people think about times being on the leaderboards that have no videos.
I understand that capturing ds footage isn't exactly easy or cheap, so there will always be people who do runs and don't have videos, and personally I don't really care if people try to fake their times (not saying that anyone has or would), but having no requirements of proof means that people could get away with it.
Before now I have more or less just accepted any run that has been submitted, but as the community has grown a bit, I was just wondering if people are happy with it being like this or if you would want some sort of proof for times to be on there. Whether it be 100% compulsory to have a video, have a requirement for either having video or splits, only accept times (without proof) from reputable runners etc.
Also, if you want a change, what would you want to do about current times on the leaderboards that don't have proof?
Just seeing if anyone is around that wants to do some SM64DS races over summer. Not sure how many runners will actually see this thread, but its probably the best place out of any to gather people.
I'm going to be available for most of summer and will race pretty much any category, so if you wanna race just post here or contact me on speedrunslive's IRC.
Also, if anyone wants to talk about running SM64DS there is #sm64ds on irc.speedrunslive.com but its pretty quiet for the most part now :/ (just tends to be me, fox and occasionally other runners).
