Lol it looks good, thanks for adding it! (Add a background if you feel like it)

add a profile pic cros

@Angelaatje nice rant :D Do you check if the timer was started early or late as well? I often subtract less than a second off of my runs after rewatching frame by frame and finding I started my timer 0.XX seconds too early.

Edit: @blueYOSHI thanks! I never knew what that was for. Even so, this function could be better advertised (for instance, right after making a change).

There's a small bug that could affect large leaderboards if they need to change categories.

If I run the Any% of a game and submit it as Any%, a change to that category will make the run disappear. For instance, if I add the subcategories "1 Player" and "2 Players," all runs under Any% will disappear. Also, if I change Any% to "All Levels" or anything else, the runs will disappear. The only way to retrieve them is to find the original run on each profile, click "edit," and re-verify it. Re-verification with the category changes will put the run back on the leaderboard. This is odd and confusing behaviour and can be especially difficult for pages with hundreds of runs.

To combat this bug, it would be good to do one of two things:

1. Auto-verify each existing run with defaults For example, verify each existing run with the additional default of "1 Player" and let the mods change it if necessary.
2. Place all affected runs back into "Runs awaiting verification" (so mods don't have to track them all down)

Hope this makes sense -- if it doesn't, let me know and I can clarify. Even just a small pop-up message to warn mods of how to handle the situation would be good.

I agree with the above. This relates to @HowDenKing saying we should be able to make custom leaderboards aside from just Full Game and IL (see previous page of posts). @Alayan, with custom leaderboard pages you could have: Full-game Leaderboard GP Leaderboard Time-Trial Leaderboard Egg Hunt Leaderboard

Right now, I'm trying to decide how to add individual worlds into this leaderboard: https://www.speedrun.com/scbros Instead of making them ILs or Misc. categories for full-game, I'd instead want to create a custom Individual Worlds Leaderboard.

Custom leaderboards might also be a good way to consolidate category extensions into the original game page. Just create a Category Extensions Leaderboard.

Edit November 2019: Thank you for the addition of subgames! This helps!

I'm on Samsung S7 and use Game Screen Recorder to record my runs. I sometimes stream my runs using the YouTube Gaming app, which means no internal storage is needed. No timer is necessary for this leaderboard since we use https://github.com/Slush0Puppy/retime to retime runs accurately to the frame.

If you are interested in finding more resources for recording or timing on mobile devices, visit the Mobile Speedrunning Discord: https://discord.gg/bpY8zeB

There you will also find a great community of 350+ runners, competitions, and a ton of new games to play!

Hey @Liv -- I forgot to check their profile to see the last time they'd been online, sorry about that. Let's wait a couple weeks and see if they respond :)

Regarding the post, I like to invite mobile gamers to the Discord when I find them. I did not mean for it to be obligatory, just a warm invitation. The user can choose to respond to me however they prefer to do so (via forum, discord, etc).

Hey! I'm looking to moderate Heart Star to host a potential mobile speedrunning competition. I posted this a month ago: https://www.speedrun.com/hs/thread/h73x4 The mod is inactive and I've contacted them in all methods available on their profile. I currently moderate about 50+ mobile games, so I'll have no problem modding this one! Thank you :)

Join 100+ dedicated mobile speedrunners in our Discord! We have speedrunning resources, competitions, and find a ton of new games to play!

Welcome!

The search bar is a great function. Two suggestions for searching:

• Searching forum posts (on general forum and within a user's profile). This would be elsewhere on the page, not on the speedrun.com navbar.
• Game search results being sorted by active players The current sorting is odd. I type in "Super Mar" and expect Super Mario 64 to come up first, but its the 10th entry. Super Mario Odyssey isn't even listed. I type in "Ov" expected Getting Over It or Overwatch to appear, but neither are in the top results. I type in "Kirby" hoping to find Kirby: Star Allies, but its not listed.

Update March 2020: Thank you for enhancing search functionality to order games by active players!

Whatever works for you! I think it'd be best to advertise the guide with a new run (as most traffic will come from watching a new WR), so time it however you'd like based on that

Hey @MOUTHWEST, what do you think about making a run guide for users interested in learning the tab strats?

In just about half a year, the mobile speedrunning community grew on Discord from 2 members (@drgrumble and I) to over 100 members. We would love for you to join us and take a shot at running mobile games. Its really easy and very fun!

The Discord was created for providing resources to users with any mobile device, suggesting games, and hosting competitions. If you are looking for a game to start on, try downloading Cat Bird -- just ask if you need help!

Thanks to all of our current mobile speedrunners. I love running this community and building it every day!

Thanks @Spielpro! I'll let you know if I need another mod :)

Hey @Awesomeduckz! Congrats on achieving the first no-checkpoint run on the leaderboard!

HMMMM :)

Hey yall, I'll be retiming runs based on when the screen fades to white (instead of when you click start).

Sounds good! Let's see if anyone else mentions it

Yeah! If you do a run, let me know. I can make a separate category for it!
