Just looking at the board, they seem to be adding loads of runs from https://www.soniccenter.org to the srcom board, often 10+ years old and i'm pretty certain they don't have permission from the runners themselves. There also seem to be other false account associations, this one looks particularly likely since it has a generic name, no previous runs and the user hasn't been online in a year: https://www.speedrun.com/sonic06/run/y4e5r1km

Just looking at the run comments, all of the runs on this board seem to come from soniccenter.org: https://www.speedrun.com/sonic06/Wave_Ocean (there are some without a comment but they have the same submission and verify date as the others)

So as the rules state they need the permission of the player, not of a site that previously collected their run, i guess that is a breach of rules?

Android emulators are very unreliable in terms of accuracy, instead you could just record it on your own phone But the game is available on many platforms, so if you have a computer to run an Android emulator on you could just use the windows 10 version instead (@MODS, maybe add PC to the list of platforms)

Your discord handle doesn't seem to work for me and it's very well possible that the new mod might not know about the existence of a monster rancher discord. And YouTube isn't really considered a good way of contacting people (and many don't even know how to do that aside from writing a comment on a video).

Not necessarily a site bug, recently it seems like some ad-blockers are hiding the social icons / contact methods of users on forum posts and profile pages. That can cause confusion when trying to contact other runners or inactive board mods and requires troubleshooting on the users end to fix. I have also heard a report that that can cause other buttons to go missing, not sure if that is worth for devs to look into as it might be fixed/caused by an ad-block or browser update but it's certainly something to be aware of when giving support.

In your mobile browser (assuming chrome) you can go to the three dots menu in the top right and tap on "Add to Home screen". That doesn't add it to your apps list but that would only require a small change to the site. Adding a manifest and service worker + 2 icon sizes is enough to make it installable and it will even appear in the apps list and opens like any other app (not in a browser).

@Oxknifer if you want to keep the banner you could make the banner wider (cut it in half, move the two halves further apart and fill in the gap) so you can make the text bigger, that wouldn't make the logo bigger but at least the text is more readable. The "Bush's Best" you could place left or right of the banner. You can get a rough preview by scaling it in your image editor. The banner is shown with a max. height of 32px and the site itself saves the logo with a max. height of 128px. Not sure about the max. width, but it's at least 720px for the full size image and 180px for the scaled down version.

A switch like that would only be possible if all categories have the same sub-categories, it could still be implemented but would potentially be very confusing for users depending on the leaderboard configuration. In your case of Battlefield 2: Modern Combat you only have 3 Categories so there would be enough horizontal space to split it into separate categories for PS2 and XBOX. Any% (PS2), Any% (XBOX), ... That might make it look a little cramped but at least every run is visible.

First update:

  • added a few easily adjustable settings (page width, video height and profile pic size)
  • improved the audit log layout and usability
  • small improvements to image size and scaling
  • limited messages page height
  • cleaned up the CSS and added comments

To update just replace your current CSS with the updated contents of this: https://gist.github.com/shenef/3dd4b99e74882873d7fb45cb5549f5b1 (same link as in the first post)

If you want it to be less wide you can change the max-width value at line 63, i think the default value is around 45%. If your browser window is less than 1600px wide it uses the default content width values of the page. That the page can become too wide is a problem i'm aware of, there are some things i'd like to do but can't because i'm restricted to only CSS. For example add a description column to leaderboards or add more than just the default category to Individual Level leaderboards (with a max of 20 categories, otherwise it's too much, even for a 21:9 screen).

The max-width value also breaks the statistics for very wide screens since their height scales with the page width. That causes them to become higher than the viewable area of the page.

Hi! I created a Stylus theme for srcom! Stylus is a browser extension that allows you to modify the Stylesheets (CSS) of a website. You can find the style here: https://gist.github.com/shenef/3dd4b99e74882873d7fb45cb5549f5b1

Comparison images: https://imgur.com/a/x5Z01C7

Features | design changes | fixes | improvements:

  • adjustable settings for the maximum page width, video height, profile picture size and forum post width
  • the load more games button on the games page is not moving anymore while game images are still loading
  • long drop down menus, for example in the variable selector or some misc category lists, now have a scrollbar
  • better wide screen support
  • if your screen is wide enough multiple rows of categories or sub-categories collapse back into one row
  • larger and better visible game name on leaderboards
  • leaderboard content is now aligned to the left
  • videos on run pages are larger (they use 87% of the screen height so you can still see the category, time, etc below the video)
  • the end of the messages page doesn't touch the bottom of the screen anymore
  • better scroll bar
  • better audit log layout
  • several small UI fixes

Issues:

  • Statistics get too large on wide screens since they dynamically scale with the screen width. Since they are in a canvas element i can't even fix that.

How to use this:

  1. install the stylus extension for chrome or firefox https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylus/clngdbkpkpeebahjckkjfobafhncgmne https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/styl-us/
  2. open speedrun.com, click on the extension and in "write a style for" select "speedrun.com"
  3. copy/paste the contents of the gist and hit save

Keep in mind that changes on the site can break parts of the theme. If you have any suggestions or issues you can contact me on discord or comment here or on the gist.

Named links in forums seem to be broken. Example: https://www.speedrun.com/marblemarcher/thread/0m10o/1#f1p18 Expected Result: Named link links to the page in a new tab Actual Result: the link links back to the current page since there seems to be some kind of error in the bbcode to html conversion

I haven't looked into Marble Marcher JJ yet myself but i doubt it will be added as a subgame in the foreseeable future. It has been mentioned in our Discord server only once before so i guess it's not exactly popular... What we were considering to add is the Marble Marcher: Community Edition (on itch.io and GitHub), it was developed in our Community Discord, is allowed for speedrunning and also has an easy to use level editor that even allows for shareable level packs with custom music per level. Other features are: improved graphics and performance, a replay feature, a screenshot feature and more. I'll take a closer look at Marble Marcher JJ but for now it seems unlikely.

Sounds like an issue with your browser, aside from that Xiaomi is known for introducing weird bugs to all kinds of apps. Make sure your Android version and chrome app are up to date.

We currently have a working autosplitter by @KaMa2 for the Marble Marcher Community Edition that is working at least for version 1.4.2. For the original MM we currently have only what @Firestix prepared, this post and this guide: https://www.speedrun.com/marblemarcher/guide/ulo3h . Feel free to tinker with it, having an autosplitter for both versions would be great! There are probably a couple of people in the discord to share pointer-scans with

Can the "webgame" tag be removed from https://www.speedrun.com/marblemarcher ? The game was initially published on itch.io (which is probably why it got that tag) but it has never been playable in a browser and has standalone clients that run on windows, linux and mac

Are you sure you looked in the right Category? The boards are divided into Console (Base), Console (Royal Edition) and PC. At least for me your run is visible in the Console (Royal Edition) Any% No Ring New Game+ Category

A search results page could be really nice, for that Engine, Developer and Publisher could be added to refine the search, for example you could enter "Unity" and get a list of Unity games. Using checkboxes or drop down menus on the games page like it was before only unnecessarily inflates page loading speed and is not a great UX. Genre imo could be removed entirely as it's a very arbitrary and subjective way of categorizing games. Additionally the Engine, Developer and Publisher info could be made visible and clickable on game pages, clicking them then simply starts a search with that argument.

Expanding the video player on a run page on a ultrawide screen can cause the video player to become larger than the viewport https://imgur.com/a/J1UIJ6w
