Pennsylvania, USAIt was fun for a while but they got boring. I think it mostly is because people started trying to farm likes (including myself), which kinda ruined things.
Now almost every frequent forum visitor has stopped going to the forums as much (including myself). Every other post is just @YUMmy_Bacon5 telling someone to “ask on the game’s forums” or something like that.
I am hosting a speedrun tournament for me and the key! The category that will played is any% on flash.
It will be a single elimination tournament, with matches that consist of rounds where each player tries to complete the game before the other player can. After one player wins a certain number of rounds, a match is over.

This fact will blow your mind. Believe me; when I heard it, I was in complete awe.
Link silly forum threads
Submitted a feedback ticket 5 months ago that hasn’t been checked, explaining why this is needed.
Regular mods being able to add games is necessary. Not only would this allow for them to add games, but also be removed by a series super mod if necessary.
If only super mods can add games, and a series mod is adding games that go against speedrun.com’s game request rules, speedrun.com staff would have to get involved in the situation, which doesn’t need to happen. If regular mods can add games, this is less of an issue because a super mod is able to remove the person doing this.
As per the title of the thread, submit game requests in the game request channel in the osg discord. Don't make a post here about your game. Your post will be ignored.
Post screenshots of silly forum posts
E.g.
Instead of normally counting to 10,000, count to 10,000 while stating something (fact, meme, whatever) that has something to do with the number. (e.g. the Chargers have been to 1 Super Bowl).
hello from retired forum user
Every March, I release a bracket of the top 64 most active Web/Flash games on speedrun.com (https://challonge.com/webgames2024)
How does this work?
You decide which one is the best by voting on which game you think is better via a series of google forms.
Where is the bracket?
https://challonge.com/webgames2024
You can also make a bracket. Who do YOU think will come out on top?
Predictions close March 13th, 2024.
Voting begins March 16th, 2024.
pls vote
Man it’s been a while since I’ve visited these forums.
I wanna try and bring back recapping the year on speedrun.com, but unlike 2021 (the last time I did this), I don’t really have an idea of where to start. Could y’all tell me notable things that happened in 2023 on src?
Does 2.0.4 run faster?
It’s back…again…I guess…yeah!
8 months ago, the third edition of my yearly speedrunning tournament thingy called Bracketfiml began, and 25 days ago, a winner was decided: @phynn24. Click the hyperlink for Bracketfiml if you don’t understand how it works.
This time, the winners of the next 10 “Bracketfimls” (which are basically just tournaments) will be placed in a single elimination tournament, and the winner of that tournament will win 1 month of discord nitro, if not, a year (probably not a year). The runner up will receive 1 month of discord nitro basic/1 month of nitro (again if I can afford a year nitro gift)
Oh and don’t forget to join the discord for Bracketfiml if you haven’t! In order to participate, you must join the discord!

ALSO: if you want to sign up in advance for the season, do that below:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_JEz8h-u5Osh0-zFf1Ib0h6kAJtE_VuqIrL7APnkAFc/edit#gid=0
The advantage of doing this is you will be placed in a “conference”, and the winner of a given conference makes the tournament which yields the aforementioned 1 month/year (if I can afford it) of discord nitro.
Good luck to all participants!
