I started speed running on guilty gear 2 overture, and there is a community on steam for this game so i told them about the speed runs on here some one took up the challenge of speed running the game, he tried posting 2, 1 that he messed up on and didn't pass verification, the 2nd one he posted was better but then the only moderator posted a new rule and voided that run and then banned him. The main thing that makes it weirder is the 2nd run beat the mod's run and the mod's speedrun seems to have some missing segments from his run video as well.
what do you guys think or am i worrying over nothing?
The clipped run seems to be odd to me. I have never heard of twitch clipping like that without making it separated videos. I already see it skipping 30s of his video, which makes revivification by others hard. But the other question is, what is the rule he added, and why did he do that? As far as I know, we are trying to beat a game as fast as possible. Adding a rule after one submitted a run, makes it questionable. I would say, talk with the moderator, ask him to explain his actions. As I can see it right now, he just want to have his record, but maybe he found a good reason for adding that rule.
He added Rule 4 about Preloading (to shorten load times), i cant really fight that rule as it is something that does make since, but he made it PC only rule while still leaving 360 in the same section as PC, and some cases of me trying to talk to him seem to go with no response, i am still new to this so I'm still trying to figure the site out too.
I would think shortening load times is a good thing. He is online streaming right now. I do not suggest to cause an issue in twitch, but you can sent him both a whisper and a message there. He should see it. Ask him to explain it, so that you can understand why. Stay civil and try to solve this issue. If he refuses to respond, ignore him and just go enjoy speedrunning it. Don't let others ruin your fun.
I also suggest to put a post on the games forums. An extra place where he should see it.
This is my first go at speed running and seeing something like this happen really puts a sour outlook at it at all, I'll try your suggestions, but if nothing comes though with it I'll sadly drop one of my favored games for speed running and try find a different one.
well I sent the message and never got a response, I'm not going to bother with the GG2 forum as i had a post in there to add categories and never got any response, the guy who put in the run talked to him on his stream on twitch and they seemed to have worked it out, and the ban was from what was said to be an auto ban system when he tried to post in the forum for the game on this site.
guilty gear 2 overture is not one of the normal games in the series, its a weird combat strategy hybrid, i don't fair to well in the normal games in the series, and the only other game thats close to it is brutal legend with the stage battles.
