It's time for another big update! I'm sorry if this took a while to do, but as some of you might noticed, the lobbies changed during Summer and I had to wait to work on most part of this update. Thank you all for your patience and for sticking with this community, keeping it alive. This update is for you guys! Without further ado:

In-Game Updates → Shortcutless Category - This category consists on doing the normal courses but without using any big shortcut or going out of the intended path. I'm aware that this is very subjective from person to person and that's why this category is subject to change in the future. Keep your eyes sharp for updates. - We will be accepting any run that ignores one platform or another, since that's not really a considerable shortcut. If any run contains a jump that skips a lot of the course or goes out of the path, it won't be accepted. - To make it more intuitive and explanatory, I made videos of all the courses that Shortcutless will be applied on. These include: Arcade Games; Bedwars; Blitz Survival Games; Classic Games; Cops & Crimes; Housing; Mega Walls, Skywars; Smash Heroes; and UCH Champions (let me know if I missed any course). I also made an Introduction video explaining more in detail what will be accepted and what won't (with examples). Here's the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFT0LHE70FMGzfLhAdleiX7F7uePgGKtU - All the courses that don't have any major shortcuts, will not be included in Shortcutless. With this said, all the runs submitted to those levels will be automatically rejected. - For obvious reasons, this category won't have Any%.

→ New levels - Two new levels included on the leaderboards now! These are the ones placed on the UHC games waiting lobbies. - All you have to do to get to these levels is: Open the compass on your hotbar, click on UHC Champions (golden apple), walk forward until you find a "solo" bot, click on that bot and join a game. You will be sent to a waiting lobby. Now you can either turn right (west facing in-game), or turn left (east facing in-game) and you have the 2 new levels.

→ All Stages - Removed Tournament Hall from All Stages due to the lack of time it was opened, stopping players to go for this category. - Older runs will not be removed since they're slower. If any player wants to remove their old run, they are free to do it themselves.

Discord Updates → Major Updates - Cleaned every player that didn't have 3 world records (towards the respective role). - Archived #tournament-discussion due to inactivity. - Updated some of the channels on the "Important Talking" tab. - Join our discord server here: https://discord.gg/YSVQSja

Moderation Updates → Staff Team - Bourkupine resigned from his SRC Mod position. - Maax got promoted to SRC Mod.

→ SRC Mod Applications - We are looking forward to have a new member on our SRC moderation team. Click on the following link if you think you are/have: • Free time to verify runs on the website. • Open to criticism and new ideas. • Not biased towards a specific player(s). • Capacity to catch "fishy" players.

Have a great day, ~Moderation Team.

Hey,

Due to the big amount of runs that I've been rejecting using the new bedwars lobby (any%) and due to the big portion of players reaching out to me, I will reinforce some aspects:

Why was my run rejected?

• Once a lobby gives a new path or shortcut that allows a player to finish the map faster than the usual, the mod team decided (together) that we won't accept any top 5 runs that use the new fastest shortcut. The reason behind this is pretty simple: the seasonal lobbies, as the name says, are not permanent and it's not fair that other runners lose their top places to a temporary advantage.

Can't you create a separate category for it then?

• We've also decided that we won't create a new category, just to delete it later when the lobby goes back to normal.

Why don't you just accept every run and then delete them once the original lobby comes back?

• We reject a few dozens of runs using the new shortcut, every single day. If we were going to accept every single one of them, we would also be rejecting them in the future, which takes a lot of time due to the big amount.

World records are meant to be broken. That's the fun of all of this. If a name is going to be standing on the leaderboards forever because its time is unbeatable, then we won't accept it.

I take full responsibility for the fact that the rules don't say anything about this, but I will change them really soon. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Stay tuned for the new updates that we've been working on in a near future!

Have a great rest of the day, ~WindMark

Hey! Today I'm announcing something that I didn't want to.

If you're on the discord, you may know that lately there's been some 'drama' in the air about someone who is supposely using unfair advantages in-game. That someone is Swofty.

He started submitting runs like crazy on september, where pretty much all of them were claiming to be world record. At this point nothing was wrong, until I see his Housing All Checkpoints and Duels All Checkpoints. I just looked at it and it didn't seem right for the time he was claiming. He was losing his sprint to walls, missing extra jumps and his lines and jump patterns were just nowhere near good. With my doubts, I decided to talk with the other mods (including maax) and we all reached a common opinion: his runs were not legit.

With too much investigation, work and help with other people (Rqzorblade, Cerdax, ChaosNuggets and managers from Parcade, thank you!) we finally reached an end and we are banning him.

No, we didn't do this without any evidences, we have enough, that's why it also took 3 months to deal with this. I'm not posting any evidences here to avoid backlash on Swofty and because this thread would be way too big.

According to ChaosNuggets and his math(s), Swofty was using a speed hack of 104%ish.

With this being said, Swofty is being banned for 380 days, counting from today. All his runs are going to be deleted.

I hope this serves as an example of what you shouldn't do.

Have a great day ~HyPixel Server Parkour Mod Team

Hey, it's time for an update!

Speedrun Updates → Changed the name Classic Lobby to Classic Games since it's the respective name in-game; → Deleted the Main Lobby NPCs category due to the inactivity/aderence by players; → Switched places of Any% and All Checkpoints (Speed 2) columns categories; → At the request of many people, Gadget% is now part of the speedrun leaderboards as a miscellaneous category. These are just experimental and not definitive, it will depend how much players will accept/play it and the upcoming disadvantages it will bring. In the future we can bring other ideas, but for now we'll see with this one.

*Reminder that top 5 runs still won't be accepted on the winter/christmas lobbies. Sorry for the inconvenience. **I know it looks a bit off having 5 columns. I'll see if I can do something about that.

With that being said, Merry Christmas to everyone and I hope 2021 to be an awesome year for you!

BedWars parkour counts now with 350+ runs for the leaderboard! For that reason, the mod team thought it would be reasonable to extend the amplitude from Top 3 to Top 5 the number of runs that need viable video as evidence. This is valid for every category (all checkpoints, any%, all checkpoints speed 2, any% speed 2).

If you have any questions, do so in this thread or join our discord https://discord.gg/YSVQSja .

Have a good day!

Since Crazy Walls has been removed from the HyPixel Network, it will be deleted on this page as well. For more informations about its removal, visit https://hypixel.net/threads/the-removal-of-crazy-walls-from-hypixel.2990753/

Any questions can be done on this thread or on our official discord server: https://discord.gg/YSVQSja

Have a good day!~

A new lobby was added (Housing) and so All Stages have a new level to be done along with all the other ones (see the rules). That means that all the other runs already submitted were all deleted because they don't have the new lobby on it.

Also, some rules were updated, including sub-categories of All Stages.

If you need to ask any questions you can reply to this thread OR (I highly recommend this one) you can join our discord server (https://discord.gg/YSVQSja) since we talk way more about HyPixel Parkour related stuff there.

Hey,

I made a few updates:

1 - SkyClash and SpeedUHC were deleted from the World Records book since they don't exist anymore on the HyPixel Network.

2 - I created 2 new categories: Any% and Any%(Speed 2); Apparently, HyPixel changed the checkpoints system again and you can skip checkpoints, as you can see on this video ; (And the runs made on the new lobbies (the ones that were affected by the Christmas decoration) also fit on this category) ; Remember that you can submit your 'All Checkpoints' runs to the new 'Any%'.
