Why isn't just any version of Project64 allowed for Emulator runs?

The Emu Category is not holding up for me. The rules require Project64 1.6 as an Emulator to use and only that one. That references a specific version of Project 64, in which that one is almost always corrupting my save when I use it. That is just, unacceptable.

From the SM64 Bot in the Discord: Project 64 1.6 is the only allowed version for leaderboards because its loading times are consistent across a variety of computers, whereas load times with later versions of the emulator vary a lot by computer. Enforcing 1.6 allows the emulator leaderboard to better reflect the skill of its players.

Corrupting your save? Why do you need to load an old save to do the actual speedruns themselves?

If you're looking to streamline your practice sessions or to help you learn new categories and levels that you're unfamilliar with I would reccomend utilising the Masamune practice rom for that purpose instead.

Ohhhhh, just kidding. I don't notice the variation in loading times.

Replacing Expiring Twitch VODs

If you wish to replace your twitch highlights with reuploads, please edit your already verified run rather than deleting the verified run and making a new submission. This makes it a lot easier for us to track which submissions are reuploads and should be less work on your part as well.
