Is it possible for the "Times in milliseconds" game option to be enabled for the Level Leaderboard only instead of automatically adding it to the Level and Full-game Leaderboards?

Minor thing, but it'd be nice to have "nationality" and "location" as two separate things in the profile, so that if I moved to Afghanistan then people wouldn't be asking "WOAH YOU'RE FROM AFGHANISTAN??", it'd just say that I'm from [country] and that my location is [place]. I got that when I changed my location to Egypt for a day while I was there. Even though I'm from there, I live in the US, so while that question with "EGYPT" replacing "AFGHANISTAN" would be true, it still confuses people.

The intent is that the country answer the question "Where are you from or where do you reside?" Don't take the word "Location" too literally.

This is neither current location necessarily, nor is it necessarily nationality or citizenship. It's whatever you wanna call home :)

Can the game names please not be case-sensitive? It's annoying to keep seeing "page not found" even though it's abundantly clear which leaderboards I'm trying to access.

there was some rule about emotes not overwriting words in sentences right?

I was discussing about general speedrunning with Carabaf and Kimerafusion yesterday and we talked about the censorship applied to speedruns. I'ld like to discuss about nude mods in speedruns or uncensored version in speedrunning. It's obvious that nude mods increases the amount of viewers of your channel. However, it's sad to see this kind of content on speedrun.com I mean, it's not like it's a part of the game, you have to download it from somewhere else. Example : All Zibang's WR have nude mod ( http://www.speedrun.com/huniepop ) and it's a bit weird to showcase that kind of content in a front page for example.

I don't see a big deal, are there any six year olds on speedrun.com?

@zewing : "Would be easier to just get rid of these shitty games tbh" Define "shitty games". How could a game be shit to speedrun ? If there is a community to run it, then it has some speedrun potential.

Normally " shitty Games " has not a community so Free WR i guess OpieOP

I don't care about nudity at all, I never understood the problem that society has with it. If a an actual speedgame has it, who cares; if the game is just a shitty meme, get rid of it. Just treat those games like all other games.

Also, regarding Huniepop: Wasn't it that the nude mod is more or less an official download, they just couldn't release it with the game?

[quote=FingerQuick] Bringing up this post that I made about a month ago http://www.speedrun.com/The_Site/thread/g79jt/21#anzyv

Still curious if its possible to implement at some point in the future? [/quote] Perhaps, but it would probably be kinda messy, so only if there's a lot of demand for it.

[quote=1UpsForLife] It seems as if you tie a run that is obsoleted by that person having a faster PB on another version, your place number on the leaderboards is replaced with a "-" as well, even though you should have a number. [/quote] Fixed.

Would it be possible to have an option to only show the fastest run from a category on your personal run page if you have runs on different versions? e.x.: I only want my fastest 16 Star time to be shown here, even though it shows both my N64[Emu] and WiiVC times. http://puu.sh/lKUI0/4377b21020.png

161803398874989: Making URLs non case-sensitive requires recoding some tedious site logic I think. It's suboptimal currently, we don't like that it works like it does either.

PackSciences: "It's obvious that nude mods increases the amount of viewers of your channel." - I mean they'll get you banned from Twitch. Realistically an "adult" category would apply to an adult game. Applying this same concept to individual runs is substantial addition work. Fortunately I think -Guy using adult mod in game that isn't adult and still getting accepted to the board- is a rare case.

1UpsForLife: I think it's tied directly to whether or not the board recognizes the variable as obsoleting. The more ideal solution is to let users choose how runs appear on their page in general, but an update to that probably isn't happening any time soon.

I have a suggestion. Upon looking at the leaderboards, the sidebar on the left is really nice. Everything is neat and clean. Because of how neat it is, I would like to suggest if it would be possible to either remove the category list above the times entirely, or just hide it. Personally, I don't see a need for having it on top and on the side, as it gets rather cluttered. As for misc runs, they can act just like the level board is shown on the left: have a show misc categories button, which then reveals the categories. Thank you.

I have a suggestion to be able to comment on submitted runs to have a mini forum between other mods and the submitter. If there are any discrepancies, it would help to point them out and possibly solve before rejecting or accepting a run. This would be a short lived forum that only exists for the duration of the run in that limbo state. I feel like this would be quite a large undertaking, though, so I know it might not be feasible in the near future.

Comments on runs have been suggested previously, and I'm pretty sure the admins liked the idea. :)

Ah okay, great! There's so much to read through...so I didn't :P Thanks!

United States

Yeah, it would be good if we could just add locked text fields that only show up between the submitter and the mods (one reserved for each ideally). Using public comments to do this isn't ideal.

Request game might need to be moved somewhere more noticeable. Recently, we've been getting a lot of threads asking where it is.
