Hello. This might be a bad suggestion because I am not a speed runner so I apologize. I often watch speed runners to see if I can incorporate anything into my own game play for time saving purposes.

I think a daily, or semi-daily activity related speedrun might be something you would want to consider. This might not be a traditional category within SRing but has a lot of potential for competition because of how many players have been doing this daily, or semi-daily. It would be a good opportunity to showcase the SR community maybe as well.

They fall under 2 categories: investigation (artifact) exploration routes, as well as crystal chunk routes.

These are highly repeatable but can essentially be attempted only once per day per account for (investigations), and 2-3 days for crystal chunks, depending on the 'route' as there is RNG involved in non Chasm specific routes IIRC.

I think at the very least, a investigation category would be amazing and something that laymen/non SRs would enjoy watching if visibility is something to be considered and has potential for a lot of different variations in format

please give it some consideration and maybe a response
