its not allowed , macros are never allowed.
Post your ideas for categories here ! Its best practice, if you actually have a example video and a clear set of rules before suggesting anything.
as long as you follow the game and category rules its fine . If you want to listen to music without it being in the video itself then take a look at the guide by stöckchen: https://www.speedrun.com/karlson_itch_io/guide/41pfa
there is something called site rules : https://www.speedrun.com/knowledgebase/site-rules
you dont have to time it yourself. right now its only rta , so you also include all the menu time.
i personally haven't done one before but karlson lb got a joke leaderboard for them . Current "wr" is this : https://www.speedrun.com/karlson_itch.io/run/z5de61jm
i dont use mac , but after looking around i found this https://github.com/keycastr/keycastr ( https://github.com/keycastr/keycastr/releases/tag/v0.9.11 )
not sure if its any good
While the moderator wasn't wrong with the suggestion to upload your runs to YouTube, there must have been a misunderstanding for them to reject your speedrun submission. Google drive uploads are normally accepted, but it's much easier to work with a YouTube upload. Either way your speedrun has been accepted and I'm sorry for the inconvenience . 🐸👌
"Each game is generally limited to one board. Until the site is better capable of supporting additional sections in each board, a "Category Extensions" board may be allowed to popular games to accommodate additional category sections on a case by case basis. Category extension boards must be requested by moderators of the existing game through the Support Hub."
from the rules , just saying. https://www.speedrun.com/knowledgebase/game-request-rules

I dont think i missed anything
No, splicing is commonly attributed as " playing each level repeatedly until you get a good run of that level, repeated that process with every level and then compile all of the footage of the best level runs together " but you make it seem like its a real legit run (as if you did it in one go). So if you say you spliced a speedrun , you pretty much say you cheated. ( or at least i normally use the word like that )
What you want to do is a segmented run. Though ,this also isn't allowed on the leaderboard. We do have a segment category in misc which is each level segment ( sandbox , escape and sky) or you could just run individual levels.
