why hasn't Illumina's (11:03 RTA 10:53 IGT) run been verified yet? was it faked?

no, it takes a while to verify runs you realise

They have 3 weeks to verify runs (although there’s kinda an exception for this game), do you know how big the queue for runs that need to be verified is? HUGE

Dude just give them time to get to the run. And for a game as popular as this there will be a lot of runs. Hill Climb Racing once had like 300 which meant that even runs that werent on Hill Climb Racing but were still modded by the mods of that game werent verified for quite a while and i know it was past the 3 week margin that src says.

I remember my SSG run was verified after 1 or 1.5 month. So, its ok to long time pass.

Note: 1 day after the Illumina's run, there is a guy who did 10:39 so it wont get a second place :I

tbh this game pasts by a lot but a lot the limit i readed somewhere that the oldest run in the top of the awaiting verification list where done about 6 months ago in the ce lol

Why cant they just hire more mods I’d be happy to volunteer ;)

you need lots of experience running the game, and also verify runs, which a lot of people don't have time to do

if you're over 16, I suppose you could apply to be a mod, but there are lots of other things that improve your chances of being "accepted"

or whatever the age limit is

If anybody's curious, you can find the queue here (excludes category extensions): https://randomidiot13.github.io/queueclient-web/ just search "mc" and click "Fetch Queue".

You'll find that the oldest submitted unverified run, as of making this at least, was submitted on the 5th of June, 2021. You'll also find that Illumina's 10:53 run is quite far down the queue.

@TrenttheN642 you're right when saying that moderators have 3 weeks to verify runs, but the reason for them not doing so isn't because this game is an exception. It's definitely not an exception. It's understandable though that moderators often use longer than these 3 weeks to verify runs for the simple fact of moderators being volunteers & having a personal life beyond speedrun.com. But the reason for the slow moderation isn't because of popularity, it's simply just terrible moderation.

For more about this I would recommend reading these two threads regarding the same topic: https://www.speedrun.com/mc/thread/b3xap https://www.speedrun.com/mc/thread/csw8l

[QUOTE=TrenttheN642] although there’s kinda an exception for this game [/QUOTE] This game does not have an exception, the site admins simply don't give a shit.

i mean, yea this game is a lot bigger and gets a lot more of work than the rest of cases, but being honest i have saw faster verifications times (based on quantity of runs) in games that doesnt realy have 25 mods lol yea i know is volunteer and they have lives obviusly, but the game status rn with the submissions overflow is kind of a dileme

Yeah, this is because having a fast moderation isn't really that difficult, the moderation for this game just sucks
