Update for BEDROCK submissions

Due to the release of custom servers that allows the leap cooldown to be altered, starting now I will need CONCRETE PROOF that your runs are using the 15 second cooldown. This includes at least one of the following:

  1. Video evidence (always the best method of proof). If the game took place in a private game, you MUST show that the cooldown is 15 seconds and not 14.9 or something. Include the cooldown setting displayed in the lobby chat into the video, or as a separate screenshot. I'm in the process of asking the developers to have this display in chat at the end of a run as well.

  2. Screenshot of the entire chat showing that you joined a REGULAR lobby and not a custom server. This should be done so I can tell that it's a regular lobby; for example, showing that 20 players joined and a map got voted for is a good hint. If I can't tell you weren't in a custom server, I reserve the right to reject your run.

  3. Screenshot of the entire chat AND the leap cooldown setting if you are in a custom server. If I can't tell if these two screenshots are from the same custom server, I reserve the right to reject your run.

Yes I know this sounds complicated but I really want to prevent cheating on speedrun.com. I'm working on suggesting a fix to the developers; this fix involves repeating the leap cooldown setting in chat at the end of your run. That way, you can just screenshot the end time as normal. If this leap cooldown message were to not appear, then it proves to me that you weren't in a custom server.

Ok. I’m sorry about the run I submitted. I accidentally submitted the wrong one.
