Maggi : Added due to inactivity PoopDeckSeamen : Added, but I'm usually not a fan of these situation :/ If you can, still try to make thing clear with the current mods. Deln : I know both mods so I'll see with them.
Well, to be honest, you're the one who sank 200 hours into this game, so you're the one who can estimate the length of the run by routing it and see how long it should take to do everything needed.
I assume you're asking this to other people who spent a long time on this game but with your experience you should be able to do that.
They decided not to migrate to speedrun.com so you can find all the leaderboards here : www.CVSpeedruns.com
If you're looking for a download link this is definitely not the place. We're not an exchange place for pirated games whatsoever.
However Amazon/Ebay/e-markets links are ok. Also you may have more chances by asking directly in the Tony Hawk series forum.
There's none currently. If you click on the message icon, it says "Sorry, this isn't ready yet."

You can use this form to add a game : http://www.speedrun.com/requestgame
However, the "policy" for early access/beta games is a bit clumsy... since the game is prone to have a lot of changes, the point of maintaining a leaderboard for the early stages of a game is kinda useless at least to me.
Alex76FR : you need to donate to the website to be able to shade your nickname
That's something you'll have to ask to the mods of the game. I recommend Nord, he's very active.
Speedrunner.king : "For a long time" when your account has been made 2 hours ago, does not compute. We know who you are : leafsfreak13, J-Man1998, TheBetterSkooky. So stop doing multiple accounts, and please send proofs with your times instead of posting random times for random games.
And no, you won't be mod for Dr Luigi, mods are active enough.
[quote]Hello. I dont really know if this will do anything, but my friend made an account ( Leafsfreak13 ) and hes posing a bunch of fake runs with no evidence and some of the mods have accepted his runs. I was right beside him while he was doing this, so i can 1oo% say these runs are fake. So yeah his username on here is Leafsfreak13 and hes doing this just so he can post fake runs and try to get higher then me on games i enjoy speedrunning. Thanks.[/quote]
We had high suspicions about this guy, thanks for confirming everything is fake. He is banned and all his times have been rejected.
Well it may not be advertised much but we have an IRC channel on SRL : #speedrun.com
Having a way to access it directly on the website... I think it has been discussed a (very) long time ago but maybe the topic was slightly different, I don't remember exactly.
As you said, considering the success of the 12 hours challenge, I'm quite sure that he will organize more with a defined frequency. Therefore, multiplying the individual actions might not be a good idea because when there is too many similar events then it's not really an event anymore.
Well, by reading the thread, pretty much all my ideas have been summed up already so I'll just add a few points to those :
[quote]Oh also something else that I have noticed, so has many others, is that some runners end up being on their own. Either no commentators or watchers behind them, just totally on their own. This looks bad for both ESA and the runner as it's quite depressing to see and obviously a knock back for the runner who then might be moody. I'm not sure how this can be handled, maybe just if people see someone on stream with no one around then out of respect go and watch them? [/quote]
I find it quite amazing that it still happens even if the event grows every year. Last year I started a run being completely alone with, iirc, zoton hosting, but we were litteraly 2 in the room and I was all alone on camera. Thankfully a group quickly came to fill the room (<3), it's not that hard to take the initiative and fill a few chairs to give support. Give some respect to the others, even more if they are in a graveyard shift.
[quote]Hosting :: I want to focus on this area, because I feel this could be really improved! Without structure it really depends on the hosts social ability to communicate with "The Internet", which is no easy task. A few people had that gift and others would leave it silent or not have much interaction.
Some ideas/tips for structure: Post-Run Interviews - Early on I remember seeing the runners come up to the desk after their run to chat. I really liked this! I reckon having post-run short interviews (Depending on time) with the runner would be quite cool. "So what'd you like about your run and what do you wish was better?" [/quote]
I had pretty much the same idea. Seeing that some transitions between games can take some time due to unforeseen issues, having interviews is a good way to have longer or shorter fillers with interesting content. The idea of having a Host Camera is also excellent. Keep it and improve it ;)
Adding a small point about moderation : People were ranting about moderation being too strong (I got personally insulted by someone for no actual reason), but I think that globally the mods behaved well. I prefer to have a well moderated chat than an endless madness as we can see in GDQs or other big events.
SplitsBet got (finally) updated : https://github.com/Gyoo/LiveSplit.SplitsBet/releases/tag/v0.5
There is still one thing that I could not do (see known bugs) but overall it should be stable despite all the new features. Feedback and help to fix greatly appreciated.
[quote]Like "Show empty forums" in the games section of the forums, maybe do that for marathons that have finished?[/quote]
I totally support this.
