Depending on the run your watching, there's a very high likely hood any rocket clips you see in level runs are patch locked.
At the moment you can run whatever difficulty you see fit, however the most optimal difficulties will always be harmless (For when there are no enemies or at least very few) or violent (when you have an arena or multiple arena's to clear) We plan on adding something for other difficulties later down the line, most likely when we get to 1.0 (Full game release)
It is currently closed due to an influx of users, It should be opened back up in a few days.
Well for one, we don't allow mods so this would be rather out of pocket for us. Also even though I've never played the mod myself I've heard time and time again that end screen times with this mod are Broken. Also we do not take text suggestions for categories here, we have enough as is currently and there's no proof anyone will even run this or has run this. A category can get added if it is popular enough with the speedrunning community, but I have a hard time seeing us relaxing on our "No Mods" ruling just for one category. Also this goes over how we actually might add categories. https://www.speedrun.com/ultrakill_category_extensions/forums/hrobz
Adding custom music and or custom textures to cybergrind is intentional and available for everyone, so it does not fall under "Modifications or additions to the game's files are prohibited." ruling. Feel free to add whatever music or textures to cybergrind you want.
UB clips were patched out a few months after Greed came out, so no that doesn't affect 6-2. There was a door clip on an older version of 6-2 though, the door seemingly allowed you to go through easier but this no longer affects 6-2 P% as the WR is on current patch.
Theres a video on how to down patch by elliot and a guide for it on here by collin
Heres the vid:

On the current version of the game, you cannot push V2 once you kill it. If you want to, you'd have to downpatch.
Down patching is allowed for every level run, multi-level runs are a bit more complex but the limits for those categories are just that you cant down patch to a version that does not have required levels for the run (For Ex: Currently fullgame categories can go to the day 1 patch of Violence but they cannot go to a version that existed without Violence.)

This is in the context of the speedrunning discord, seperate from newblood.
When you submit a run, the site itself says it can take up to two weeks. Ultrakill literally JUST got updated and we have a mountain of runs in the que because of that. Everyone on the verifier team are volunteer's and have their own lives, so be patient.
I mean you coulda asked in the discord but ping a mod of the server (usually B.G.B.) with a link to your verified ultrakill speedrun (use speedrun.com link, not youtube link) and kindly ask for the role.
