I will be retiming all the runs using vidtimer and I will be moving any runs that aren't set to "easy" difficulty to easy. The actual difficulty is technically dynamic, but there's no option to change the difficulty so as long as all the highscores are on the same page it will work for now. I will look to try and fix that leaderboard so people can't submit runs to other difficulties, but I'm still not 100% sure how to do that yet.
Any runs that aren't in compliance with the rules (most commonly they start/stop in the wrong places) are going to be taken down. I know it sucks if you don't have to full videos anymore, but I can't let times where I'm just guessing at their length stay up. That being said If your run got removed and you do have the video just resubmit the run and I will put it back up with the correct time.
Lastly the rules are going to be edited so that they're clearer and begin in the same place as all of the other runs now do. If there's anything you have an issue with or you think I mistimed your run, please DM me or comment on this thread.
I have gone through every record appearing on the leaderboards and retimed them. I have inputted all the new times as of now. If you think I timed your run incorrectly, please let me know. I tried to be as accurate as possible, but even when inputting the times from my spreadsheet today I found a few mistakes.
Congratulations to ~75% of runs that have become 1-2 seconds shorter!
6/16 edit - I'm stupid and just found the Tutorial% section so I will be looking to retime those runs soon.
I have updated the rules of every category (except for the tutorial% because I'm not 100% sure on that one yet) so that times can be more accurate and fairer across the board. If you do not agree with the rule changes and/or think I have mistimed your run, PLEASE contact me with what your solution is. I'm trying to come up with a way that this page can be run well so I'm more than open to any suggestions.
With that being said I have retimed EVERY run on the site and will go through over the next couple days inputting the new times. THERE ARE VERY FEW RUNS THAT WILL CHANGE THEIR RANKING so there's no real need to freak out about your ranking positions. When I update runs, I will make sure to do the whole category in that one sitting so there's not some times updated and some times that haven't been yet.
I'm going to try and be the best mod I possibly can be, but please let me know if I have screwed something up. Thank you!
Also to anyone with a pending time - I will retime your runs and have them verified by 6/16/2025 and that's a promise!
I know this is probably too niche to actually get a category, but I've done a few untimed attempts at this off stream and wanted to try to record one. I explain this bit at the beginning of the stream, but it's basically just: Get the "Win the Retro Bowl" Achievement as fast as possible simming every game. I chose some settings to make it as quick as possible and started my timer when I left the setting menu for the first time.
Hopefully someone will see this and think it's worth giving a shot to, but until then I will be streaming runs occasionally to try and get one where I can win the Retro Bowl in the first season.
I show the timer at the start/end of the video but in case you don't feel like watching my PB is 25:44.
