tehjman1993: The short response is that it would make life easier for everyone if game requests got routed through series moderators. The decision making would be more consistent at the lowest layer and would prevent a lot of issues up front. The site isn't quite wired to allow that at the moment. I can discuss with the others about trying to implement a fix for this. In concurrence with that, I think it's still a step in the right direction to have the game units slightly more separated from the series units, so that people aren't fighting about whether or not a checkbox is checked or not.

PeteThePlayer: Series moderation doesn't inherit automatically any more due to a decision we made based on our perception of what would cause less conflict and the inheritance code greatly straining the site when generating user's lists of games they moderate and runs to verify.

A possible way to let donors have icons next to their names is to use their profile theme's favicon if their amount is over €5. You could probably just parse where ever you save the "Donated €x.xx" data to trigger it to replace the coin. Enabling it for every user would be a bit spammy.

Stil waiting for comment section below the run.

Any chance to link beam.pro account to speedrun.com ? would be nice to integrate that service

United States

Default sorting by IGT is still broken.

Idea: Have a number appear next to the Streams button, like Notifications, for how many people are streaming that game. There could be a setting per game whether or not to include said game; and a global setting to include with/without PB (since I include both).

Edit: To improve the streams filter, include the same systems SRL uses as options. (Show All but [nosrl]; exclude let's play, causal, etc; Only with speedrun terms; has personal best)

Another suggestion for the streams page. It would be cool if you could filter the streams and only show games that you're following.

In the theme of my only other forum post, any plans to enforce SSL now that you have it enabled?

Idea: Sending out an email to moderators if there's been a run pending for 4 or more days. Enabled by default.

Edit: Since the new layout has made the Games dropdown box (next to Home) compact, could more followed games be listed on it? There's a couple I regularly bounce to and 15 just isn't enough :<

Feature request :

On either a series page or a game page, have the possibility to add a link to a Discord server, with the following conditions :

  • If the server is set in a game page, only this game will show the Discord server URL (seems logical huh ?)
  • If the server is set in a series, all the games of the series will have this link.
  • If a series has a server, and a game of this series has another, the game server overrides the series one

Or at least quote a comment, so we don't have to always find where the original user is.

If two players have the same IGT time for WR they do not both have 1st place on the leaderboard though it shows up properly everywhere else that they both have 1st.

There should also be ties for 28th, 26th, 22nd, 20th, 16th, and 14th places as well: http://www.speedrun.com/ots#Any_IGT

^: Can anyone (probably ROMaster) confirm whether or not that is the millisecond thing, where someone enters milliseconds so the other run comes first? I can't remember if it's only on the leaderboards or not.

United States

There's no milliseconds on those runs, so that's not the reason. My best guess is because of date differences and not using standard time over gametime.

United States

It's not very significant, but since the site is keeping track of run views, could the API provide that information for runs? I can use it a some measure of popularity for things besides just game.

I just feel like at this point there's some sort of weekly reminder that sorting by IGT is still not working. So here it is:

Sorting by IGT is still not working.

Sorry for adding yet another complaint about it to the forums, but seriously, such a basic functionality can't be left broken so long.

Is it possible to add an option to add text to the run submissions page? For instance, I'd like to add something along the lines of "A video is strongly encouraged"
