Hello everyone, I just joined the site today after becoming interested in speedrunning from watching UhTrance do Resident Evil speedruns.

I do have one question: I plan on speedrunning Metro Exodus but I’m wondering what to do to ensure my runs are verified as legit?

Is there anything I can do that will help verify the authenticity of my runs?

Thanks!

Welcome! When in doubt, check the rules of the game and the category you are running, as listed at the top of the leaderboard. In general, video and audio proof are recommended, while a timer is helpful, though every game has a different set of rules when it comes to this. You can always ask questions, either in the game's forum page, or Discord server if they have.

Hey thanks!

I’ve just watched a lot of YouTube videos about people splicing or faking speedruns and I want to be able to prove beyond any doubt that my runs are 100% legit so I wasn’t sure if there was anyway to do that.

Splicing/cheating is rare but it does happen, there are inconsistencies usually that experienced players can catch. The moderators of the game will know more about that stuff than any of us do.
