I am an active speedrunner that knows how to TAS, and I have enough experience with video editors to detect splicing (and make spliced videos myself!) I will make "Moderator Test" videos showcasing spliced and TAS runs, with different difficulties for new moderators, or for experienced moderators that know how to detect everything!

I think sub 5:20 (in Any%), sub 23.5 (in 1-1 Fire Luigi) and sub-21:30 (in Warpless) will be more thoroughly checked than anything below it, and WRs will take some time to be accepted (at least for new runners and people with previous WRs that have been proven not to be spliced, or WRs that have been streamed and known to not have been a movie playback) due to suspicion.

I am also good at retiming runs. My 36.193 and 35.740 were self-retimed, and I have also helped with retiming some of JonnyBoy's TASes, etc. I have a frame conversion spreadsheet on Google Docs that you can use to retime runs. If anyone is interested, I will post a link.

I will put WR runs by non-trusted players through a spectrogram to detect splicing, and also analyze transitions frame-by-frame (and places that will usually be spliced). I will also try to check for things that people wouldn't normally do on WR pace (such as doing fast accel, backwards walljump, etc.), to check if the run was actually a TAS played back on recording/stream.

If evidence is found, I will contact other mods (JonnyBoy, Loopie, etc.) with the evidence I found, and see if they agree that the run is cheated based off of the evidence provided. After mods agree that the evidence is true, the run will be removed from the leaderboards.

I'm also friends with JonnyBoy (we've got into arguments on stream before tho, but he's apologized since the last major one), another moderator of the category, and current Any% WR holder.

If you guys don't think I will be a good moderator, that's fine, you can decline my application. But I will be glad to moderate, if you guys do accept me as a moderator.
