Leaderboards moderation requests thread

Requesting moderating privileges for the game Freedom Fighters (http://www.speedrun.com/Freedom_Fighters). The moderator has stopped running this game 8 months ago and I haven't been able to contact him. Started running this game and writing a guide so I guess the leaderboards is atleast worth having a picture of the game. Haven't added a run time yet because I haven't recorded any yet, but it's pretty competetive.

Thanks ahead

Edit: Apparently I can't add a run time and the moderator has to approve it, god damn.

Considering the mod for Freedom Fighters was last online two days ago, I'd suggest at least giving him the benefit of a doubt by waiting a couple days. His twitch is linked in his profile, so I'd also suggest at least trying to contact him via twitch message as well. Not sure what you mean by the leaderboard being worth having a picture of the game, as it already has a picture of the game. As for not being able to add a run time without verification, that's how the vast majority of the leaderboards on this site work; it's to prevent false times and cheating.

Sorry, we got a bit behind on requests.

Sunny_M1lk added to fallout series due to inactivity of mod. Did you want me to add you to 2048? DrYoshiyahu added to Star Wars Rogue Squadron as an active runner for category additions ty2358 added to Castlevania 64 since he's an active runner shiningdragoon added to Rygar as an active runner.

PKSCUBE: Normal users can't add runs for other people. We may look into something like suggesting a notable time to add, but moderator review is a key part of site functionality fortunately or unfortunately. Going to go with essentially what Shaddex said for now.

Did I miss anyone's request?

I'm going to need more assistance, and I've also found a bug you may want to address:

Changing the names from the excessive "Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II Rogue Leader" to the more accurate: "Star Wars: Rogue Leader" (same with Rebel Strike) removed series mod privileges. While the games are still in the series, it seems that changing the names changed something to do with the way the site handles mods. There's now no longer any mods at all for Rouge Leader and Rebel Strike.

I've been able to set Cronibard as a moderator for these games since he was the one who requested them and I have access to this piece of information.

If there were other mods, I have no way to find them but maybe the admins can. Since this looks like a pretty big issue, I'll warn them right now.

No, it was just him and me. Thanks for such a quick response!

Gyoo: No moderators got removed exactly, it was just that the Series moderators have power here option got unset.

The cause of this has been fixed now, though.

kirkq, yes please, could you add me to 2048?

Requesting Super Mod status for Distance (www.speedrun.com/Distance). I moderate the page of Nitronic Rush, which is the spiritual predecessor to Distance, and am one of the active runners of Distance. The only moderator for the Distance page has had no involvement with the existing speedrunning community of the game (or even the general community of the game), and beyond our initial contact two months ago when the page was first created, he has not responded to any of our messages regarding his plans for the page or the possibility of communicating with the speedrunners. Another member of our community, Californ1a, added him on Steam some time ago and has sent him numerous messages while he was online, all of which have been ignored. I personally submitted a run on Tuesday, which has not been verified despite the fact that he has been on the website multiple times since then, and added him on Steam today, inquiring about the page after he accepted, but was also ignored.

Frayzlo added to Wings of Vi since the categories aren't really set up atm.

CyclopsDragon added to Distance. I removed the other guy since he doesn't have a run of the game up, and doesn't seem to be actively moderating at a glance (though I didn't bother to verify every single detail)

I'd like to request Super Mod status for this http://www.speedrun.com/tsiiyh

Tried contacting the actual Mod, sadly, no response. Considering i got ideas about categories and stuff, i think Super Mod would be better than simple Mod. Especially considering the other guy didn't respond and hasn't done any of the things i have in mind.

Considering how active Ukebae has been on Boktai, I removed him and set you Super Mod.

Hi, I would like to request super mod for the game Tetrisphere please. There's only one moderator for that game and he/she hasn't been online now for a month. I also submitted a run for that game a little while ago, around 2 weeks ago or so (may have submitted the same run twice by mistake but I don't know LOL), and it still hasn't been verified yet.

Thanks,

Vaporeon~
