I hate how the WR History looks. I'd prefer if the boxes would be one colour and not colour 1 and then white outline when selecting which ones to show/hide. Thanks.

The promotion page doesn't match the current logo. https://i.imgur.com/BrFwXOd.png

Edit in June 2019: Thanks for updating the promotion page!

I mentioned this in Discord but was told to also mention it here -- allowing for Twitch Clips to be auto-embedded into run submissions would be handy. Thank you!

Idk, since like the site’s creation 3 years. It’s been slow moving on the development of it, but it is still being worked on.

I'm not sure if this is currently a feature, although if it isn't, I was wondering if there could be marathon notifications implemented. For example, when someone submits a run to a marathon, if the submission is successful (or Moved to Phase 1), the runner gets a notification about it. Also notifications about if there's a new forum post in a marathon someone has submitted a run to and when the schedule is made (if possible). For the moderators as well, there could be a notification when someone submits a run to the marathon.

Just a few suggestions (apologies if this is in the wrong place)

Would be cool to have a box showing upcoming/running events for each game, such as tournaments, community races etc.

Maybe something like this:

Maybe it has been said but during AGDQ 1 week ago the site where under pressure and was pretty laggy. I think the best way to deal with this would be to display only the first 10 best times and add a button to load the rest of the record. I don't know what people do when they come on speedrun.com but I admit most of the time is to see the WR only (and get the link) Same idea when you just want to acess a certain category, the site always load all the any% records which is costly for servers especially for SM Odyssey

Most of my requests failed on the forum, not on the frontpage or Leaderboards.

We could use a place to put game-wide rules on a game page. The rules sections for specific categories are great, but it'd be nice to be able to list notes and rules that aren't specific to any one category:

  • What kinds of emulators are okay or forbidden
  • What kinds of consoles/re-releases are fine, a disadvantage (such as NES Classic or VC), or forbidden (such as SGB1)
  • Game-wide timing notes

I like that (though IDK why people forbid certain consoles the game was released for, that seems silly. Like banning VC versions, they're official releases...)

Super Game Boy has to be banned because it's inaccurate. It runs too fast.

Switzerland

Couldnt you create a sub-category instead?

Imo as a verifier rank you should be able to edit the run or atleast the time, not every run is correctly timed and it would save some time from mods.

nice page, the very way bootstrap should be used.

I am however missing a search function for the forum :C would be helpful

I'd love it if it was possible to mark parts of the timer (ingame timer specifically) as undefined, like with xxx or --- (or w/e). for example in the monster hunter series, there's multiple ingame timers displayed, (for ILs there's one in the level, that doesn't show ms, and the end-screen which does)

^ in the example series, when players submit with only the in-level timer, the ms information isn't given. simply omitting the ms would make them be faster than they actually are, and adding 999ms or rounding up seems inaccurate.

(while we're at it, displaying the ms when it's 000 instead of hiding it would be apreciated as well :C)

I just found myself wanting arrow-like buttons on a run page to go to runs of adjacent ranks instead of clicking back to the leaderboard. i.e. If I had the 3rd place run in a category open, there would be links to 2nd and 4th, probably below the video.
