Verification Standards

New categories will probably be added in the future,I guess this is important. The verification standards I'm using are the same as they were before I was a mod. WRs need video proof to be added on the leaderboards, tied or not. For some reason, it didn't happen the same for Any% NSE but this is gonna get fixed. I'd like to keep those standards for new categories.

@lachy3923 I accepted your run because it has a lot of things which can be faster, but as I stated, it could be deleted, as it's already happened with other rejections.

I have one question- should accidental ZR menu's on Wii U count as making the run unverifiable? It's like a 2 second time loss but it happens to me a lot because of the way I grip the controller.

You don't seem to benefit from it, so it's acceptable 100% as long as you unpause as soon as possible.

@Mishu low% is very challenging and yes I did 100% do it I just can't send my 3Ds down to like a company to get a capture card drilled into it so until I get the Vc version on wiiu I will be unable to record my speed runs but my runs are 100% legit

I didn't 100% the game I just beat it as fast as I could and I think if some one who is good at the game could run low% your time would probably be around late 30mins early 40mins only reason why it took my over an hour was because I died a lot and had 2 game overs 1 on 8-1 and 1 on 8-5

I do believe your runs are legit. But accepting every WR runs by trusted people w/o video proof is not possible. I'd like to avoid the situation NSMBW leaderboards have been passed through a little ago.

I'd really like to know what Jumpyluff thinks about all of this.

I agree,

@Mishu it's really nice that you took the record from me in NSE when you did.

However, neither of us have any video proof, even though I believe your run is a legit run (as it beats mine). And I haven't really tried since.

But it would be cool if the standard was actually written in the rules of the three main categories. "Any world records posted as of January 27, 2016 require video proof."

Just my suggestion.

@LightOfEon Ty, still a lot of optimization ahead for Any% NSE, a perfect run would be roughly 1:01:45 (I promise video proof is coming).

And yeah, I'll put standards on category rules (all of them,main and misc, at least for now).
